A couple of days ago I visited Nagare – Home of the Blue Lotus Clan. A clan of Samurai, using the C:si Combat System, the system I have used for years and I still have all the Katana’s in my inventory! I was amazed on how pretty this combat-sims looks..I guess times have changed regarding…

Between two sims
Last night I was exploring and found a landmark to Hanzo Blades in one of my Samurai folders. I went to check it out and yeah, it is still there…although I could not remember the shop – probably because they do not sell the combat-system I used. Anyway, nice shop, great building in Asian style!…
The future of the ImperiuM Katana
Today I have emptied and abandoned our clanland. Again, my thanks to all members and friends of the ImperiuM for the past 3 years of fun and good times! <3 you all.
Heavy Heart
The last days of the year were…odd. We, ImperiuM, had to make a very tough decision, one that left me with a heavy heart for some days. And still. After having ‘lived’ on our own sim since November 2009, we had to decide to let it go. The monthly costs of tier, the decrease 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…
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…
Planking in ImperiuM
I guess I had nothing better to do, on this rainy and gray Monday morning… (The Planking pose is a Platinum Hunt item from Tutti Frutti, just as the jeans I am wearing on the pics)
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…
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…
Ellie’s Time out
Last night I rezzed the Padded Room from aDorkable (yeah, another Platinum Hunt item!) in the dojo, to check it out. Within a couple of minutes Ellie took a time-out in it! No worries, Ellie is just fine, it just shows even brave Samurai need some peace and quiet every now and again….
Sweet!
My vacation ended and today was my first day back in the office. Meetings…catching up and deleting hundreds of emails…pretty tiresome! To add joy to all, the rain has stopped and summer has begun! WTF! Anyway, tonight we sparred like crazy in the dojo and during one of the (needed!) breaks Ratt took the opportunity…
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…
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…
SL8B, getting closer!
SL8B is getting closer and closer, luckily our exhibit is already finished – thanks to Ratt’s hard work! The grand Opening is on 20 June and the gates will close again at 2 July! An overview of all the sims, including the names ( The ImperiuM has its parcel on Spellbound!), they are closed for…
