More- Covering Second Life Fantasy Faire 2011! ~ Piper Shan Designs

Hello everyone, once again! I took some more time to explore this awesome event that is the Fantasy Faire in Second Life of 2011! I'm still being amazed at the talent out there between builders and designers, sim creators and merchants! I visited three more sims to check out the varying themes.. and I must say, none disappoint! These three have much to see, though you will get overwhelmed by -Enchanted Exotic World- and -Fantastical and Magical- sims in particular, its almost dizzying trying to take in all the packed full details!

From Saturday April 2nd to Sunday April 10th 2011, thousands of Second Life residents and creators are coming together to support the American Cancer Society's vision of a world without cancer. Friends Fighting Cancer (FFC) have transformed nine sims of Second Life into a fantasy wonderland: the Fantasy Faire 2011 to benefit Relay for Life of Second Life.

The Fantasy Faire 2011 is the largest gathering of fantasy designers, enthusiasts, roleplayers and performers in the virtual world. Ten days of commerce, special events, live music concerts, exclusive items auctions, RFL ribbon hunts and fundraising to benefit Relay for Life and the fight against cancer.

This nine sim event is bringing together such fantasy genres as Fairy, Elven, Magic, Mermaid, Goth, Demon, Vamp, Neko, Micro, Steampunk, Sci-Fi and more including fantasy landscaping and appearance such as skin & hair! FFC's goal in 2011 is to raise $20,000 USD for RFL of SL. The Fantasy Faire 2011 will also offer visitors an opportunity to celebrate the survivors of cancer, remember and honor loved ones lost, and to fight back with the American Cancer Society.

The Fantasy Faire 2011 is made possible by the generous support of Sim and Event Sponsors: Dark Goddess Designs, Evie's Closet, Fallen Gods, Fantasy Furniture by Arachne Anatra, Hoof It, Mer Betta, Petable, The Looking Glass, The Arcanum, T R I D E N T, Mycon3 fantasy sim, Fondazione Connell - The Project and Roleplay Guide.

I myself have been doing very well! and I thank you all who have come to Nemo Revisited Sim or my personal shop at Demons & Angels to purchase a product and donate to the vendors! Valistar vendor alone had taken in 5,000$L so far and the Pet Ferret vendor, 4,500 $L ... my Hunt Ribbon has made 1,600&L in donations to the relay benefit! In total Demons & Angels has so far brought in 16, 700$L that is US$62.18... small compared to the grand total but nothing to sneeze at! Just a reminder! the Pet Ferret if purchased through a Fantasy Faire vendor is discounted, normally they are 700 $L but this one is just 400 - click here for details!

Anyway! now to the three new sims I visited for this years 2011 Fantasy Faire! First we start off with Enchanted Mysts. This was a really elegant and yet quaint elven inspired sim, at least that what I felt about it! I like its clean lines and atmosphere.

EXOTIC WORLDS

This sim was dark and enchanting for sure, and it sort of reminded me allot of a previous Fantasy Faire Sim I explored called Forest of Shadow, which you can see Here.

Entrance rez point

One of the stores that caught me eye, that I liked the design of.

Me again, sitting on one fo the avilable comfy chairs not far from the rez point.

This sim had some great marshy landscape, gave great atmosphere. reminded me allot of the world Pandora in the movie Avatar, where the Na'vi lived.

FANTASTICAL AND MAGICAL
I found this sim to be overwhelming filled with goodies and all kinds of odd whimsical decorations. I was like falling down into Alice in Wonderlands rabbit whole, it was a strange world indeed, and I even found the Mad hatters tea table! Hint... its up in a tree! I didn't see any cheshire cats though :P
