Although most of the pics on my blog may give the impression I am always completely dressed up, fashionable and wandering around in exotic places..that is not quite the truth. Yeah, I do explore a lot, I try to find a cool place every other day – but most of my travels I do in…

The Ratt and The Cat
This evening I enjoyed watching some spars between Ellie and Ratt. I tried to make nice action-shots, but it is never easy to get a good one! They both moved so fast and ran out of camera view all the time or the animations make the avatar look weird! I always like the animations in…
Imperial Autumn
Yeah I know. It is only the 1st of September and maybe we will get a bit of summer after all the rain, but I felt the urge to redecorate ImperiuM Island today and get ready for Autumn! With a bit of the mini-flu left (I apparently brought a nasty virus with me from the…
My Heart of Darkness
Ever since I got into Katana fighting, about 3 years ago, my favourite sword has been the Heart of Darkness by Archatek. I have a lot of swords, I think I almost have every C:si sword there is, but for some reason the HoD suits me best. Did you know I ALWAYS wear it? Even…
Meiji
While I will be travelling the rest of this week – and probably will not blog, although I will try to find a topic and time! – one of the most well-known C:si combat sims will close. This was announced months ago and lots of fighters have taken the last opportunities to spar there and…
Living obstacles
Monday nights we usually have a grouptraining in our Dojo, lead by Ratt. Today it was a challenge, for all of us. Not only practicing what Ratt was teaching us, but also trying to manoeuvre around the non-stop stream of noobs. Amazing really, how people act. Even as a noob I used to be able…
Gotta love n00bs!
This weekend was total chaos in ImperiuM Island! It sort of started Friday evening, when we were having some groupfights and had a n00b or 3-5 running around and standing in appearance-mode in the middle of the combat zone (heh). It happens, we thought, and continued our fights around them, occasionally kicking one in the…
Combat and pictures
Last night we were delighted to see some members of ImperiuM returned to our dojo, as this is still a slow time and lots of people are on vacation. Being all a bit rusty, we did some groupfights (or FFA) just for the heck of it. Kill and be killed. Die and stand up. Good…
Thinis
The only thing I could think and say once I landed on Thinis (A) was: Wow. Just…Wow! Thinis is a multi sim roleplay environment, upon arrival you will need to read some notecards and rules, which are pretty straight forward. For more information about this post-apocalyptic roleplay I can recommend their website: thinisthesim.com! I put…
Goodbye to Meiji
The Meiji sim has always been in SL ever since I started katana-fighting in 2008. It was a public combatsim, open to all and run and owned by Domokun, who has spent a lot of his money and time in this to create a gathering place for clans and ronin. I remember having my very…
Meanwhile in The ImperiuM..
Whilst I spend most of my in world time on the SL8B sims this week, I also try to keep up with fighting in ImperiuM ! Last night I watched a nice groupfight in our Mainhall and we welcomed a new member: Kirjaval! She did her best in the fight (with the Bokuto) but it’s…
Mech Combat
Mech. Yeah, those HUGE robots, they always remind me a bit of the Transformers, but they are completely different. Or so I am told. Anyways, for some strange reasons…Ratt and I ended up in the Mainstore of MCM Combat Operations. A high-tech facility where you can get all sorts of Mech avatars and accessories. I…
Fierce Fighters!
Gotta love what the sword-animations does to your facial expression :)
Ready!
Trainingnight was good! It was nice to see new and old faces in our dojo, where Ratt went through some moves and tips for us all. Unfortunately I was not really able to attend, due to phonecalls (meh to RL), but while on phone I watched the lessons :).
Antarctica – Vanguard Armed Forces
Instead of being out in the sun (it was too windy anyway) I dressed up all warm and travelled to Antarctica’s Vanguard Armed Forces (M). A multiple sim Roleplay environment, breathtakingly beautiful! On arrival one is advised to use windlight settings: ‘Antarctica’ for sky and ‘Ice-like’ for water. After I did that…it was as if…
