Satiated Desires New Release: Chatelaine – Mediaeveal Rose Gold with Amber Pendants Hip Chain & Necklace
I’ve created a range of jewellery called Chatelaine which I’ll be blogging about over the next week or so.
There are two pieces in each metal/precious stone style – A twisted heavy link necklace and a hip chain.
They’re designed for those of you who are confident in your femininity and downright sexiness.
First up is the mediaeval rose gold with amber pendants.
The necklace looks seriously sexy with anything from casual tops to formal gowns and the hip chain looks great with anything from jeans to hobble skirts.
I chose the name Chatelaine for the range for a couple of reasons and when I went digging for the definition I couldn’t believe how appropriate it was:
* The mistress of a château or large country house
* A chain formerly worn at the waist by women; for carrying a purse or bunch of keys etc.
so the name perfectly suits both items 
These are no modify items and resizing is done via a menu. To reduce lag the scripts can be deleted and reinstalled when needed. When script limits come in this will be really important.
If you feel game enough to tackle it by hand then give these ago and if they don’t do it well enough for you I’ll swap them for some mod ones – just remember they’re no copy so if you trash the mod ones then you’re on your own 
Come and see them inworld at the new shop in Zindra or you can buy them through Apez or XSL.

The shop has moved to Zindra. It’s still a little rough around the edges as I bed it in (don’t try and use the tp to get upstairs!) but I’ve got most of the items out. The current shop will have to close in around a week unless LL give me the OK to stay (unlikely I suspect). Here’s the new shop SLURL.
So come and check it out. The outdoors items are to your left around the side of the shop when you arrive and I’ve created a forest next door for you to wander in for a little outdoors play or you can sit at the lookout and watch the sunset over the river. It’s a wonderful spot and I’ve got a barman set up so you can sip something nice as you chat and watch the sunset.
There’s no signs at the moment pointing to anything outside the shop itself so use these SLURLs until I get them set up. Although you can’t really miss the forest, look to your right when you tp in and you’ll see a big clump of trees
I’ve got new items in this shop but haven’t blogged them or released them on XSL.. It’s on my to do list for the next few days, so watch this space or check out the shop if you have time.
I don’t understand why people have to get uptight about things that are really none of their business. The gender of the person who someone loves is irrelevant. What’s important is the love and the commitment in the relationship. The same with changing a gender. No one does it for fun or because it’s cool, they do it because they need to be able to feel comfortable in their skin.
For those of you who are lacking the compassion to be able to understand that I feel desperately sorry for you. However, for those of you who act against the members of this community, I have no compassion nor understanding.
The bottom line is that your behaviour is unacceptable in any civillised society.
The message of this hunt is “hate is not a family value”. I support this position fully in all aspects of our lives. Only compassion and tolerance will make this world a better place and hate should have no part in any well lived life.
The hunt runs from 23 -30 June 2009. Everyone who supports this message is more than welcome to participate.
Here’s the blog for more information.
I hope to see you all take part.
and an added ps… read this: http://www.cnn.com/2009/LIVING/wayoflife/06/28/gayby/index.html?
If you haven’t downloaded the new viewer yet (1.23.4) here’s a quick guide to how you should consider setting it up.
Don’t do the auto install from the log in page, if you do this you won’t be able to go back to your current viewer if you find the bugs are unacceptable.
- Go to the download page and download it to your hard drive.
- When you install it, create a separate folder for it and name it something you can find again.
- When it has installed, there will be an icon on your desktop, find it and check properties. If it points to the folder where you just installed it then rename the icon to something that tells it apart from your current viewer.
- Start it and log in as usual.
Once you’re inworld, there’s a few things you need to do to set it up properly.
1. go to preferences > general and towards the bottom of the page you’ll see a dropdown with the maturity settings. Set that to your choice. If you don’t, then you won’t be able to search or go to the adult continent.
2. Check your settings there are still as you want them as some of them have reverted to default.
Once you’ve done that, save and close preferences and open search. You should see three boxes for the different maturity levels and should be able to tick any or all of the levels you chose. If you can’t, go back to the preferences and check that it did save your selection.
Now you’ve saved and checked your settings you don’t have to continue to use the viewer if you don’t want to. Your maturity preference is saved to the server so you can go back to your current viewer if you want to. You won’t be able to search for adult content using the old viewer but you will be able to use landmarks or the map or be tp’d to Zindra.
If you want to do a few more tweaks to the new viewer then read on.
- You’ll find that walls and prims won’t appear to rez properly with the new viewer, this is because they have changed one of the settings to a number too low to be useful.
To fix this you need to go into the advance menu (cntrl-alt-d for those of you who can’t see it up the top) and select “debug settings” in the box you’ll see type “rendermaxNodeSize” and then set it to anything over 6000. It seems that 8192 will give you good results without reducing your frame rate. Thanks to Ann Otoole for highlighting this fix.
- You may also have noticed that sculpties haven’t really been rezzing properly for a while now in any of the viewers. Since you’re in the debug settings if you want to fix this type “RenderVolumeLODFactor” and change the number to 4. It seems it can go higher so you can tweak it until you see your sculpties the way you wish to.
and if you’ve downloaded the new viewer over the top of your old one and want to go back to 1.22, you can download the old viewer here and follow the steps above to install it separately.
This is an opulent fur cushioned platform with a sculptie cushion and pillows. It has 28 swappable positions with expressions and is for a couple or an owner who likes to see their pets pleasure each other.
This item is for gay men and has been designed to enhance your visual pleasure. The positions have been set up for two avatars of the same general height and proportions.
The light blue ball is the one that gives the pleasure through their mouth, hands and anus. Each position is swappable and will generate the rope. So both, either or neither of you need to wear the cuffs/collar. You decide the visuals.
The positions range through affection, foreplay (fisting, spank, ball sucking and others), cock sucking, rimming, frottage and sex.
You can use it without generating the rope or by wearing any combination of the collar and cuffs included. Have fun generating lovely rope patterns by wearing different combinations.
This has specially modified LockGuard compatible chain scripts and I haven’t seen any other items inworld that can give you as many chainable positions. The animations and poses have been carefully selected by me to be appropriate to the item. All my items have a different selection of animations and poses.
It is designed for you to rez and use or you can tailor it to your special needs.
- You can decide in the configuration who can use the:
balls,
the menu
you can also turn the chat on and off and
the positions are modifiable, you can easily move them up or down or reposition each ball and save them permanently
Instructions are in the User Guide.
Size = 6m x6m
27 Prims
See my XStreet SL listing for further details and more pictures
The set includes:
- ~ 2 sets of menu resizable and transferable gold rope cuffs and a collar which match the ropes generated.
~ Full instructions. You can just rez and use, the instructions are handy if you wish to change any of the configurable items or the positions.

Three toys for those who like to have the recipient of their affections well prepared for use.
Use them to punish, to reward or to get them into the correct mindset for your further use.
Watch as they move up and down the penis, see their expression change from an initial shock to discomfort as they ride the cold steel.
Available from Apez and XSL.
Penetration Preparation Stand – Both
Warning: This is not a BDSM item, this is extreme RP content. If you don’t know what Dolcett is then I suggest you look away now.
This is a Dolcett outdoors roaster designed for those who relish their cannibalistic tendencies and enjoy their victims slow roasted. The victim will slowly rotate on the spit until you’re happy they’re done. This doesn’t need ropes to tie them on, the spit goes straight through their body. the arms are left dangling in case you wish to have them cuffed as a symbolic gesture. The animation was created specifically for this piece, it’s not the usual freebie ones you see.
This is extreme content. Don’t say you haven’t been warned.
If you wish to try this before you buy it, come to my inworld shop: Satiated Desires: http://slurl.com/secondlife/Emery/196/168/81 .
It’s also available through Apez and Xstreet SL
This is on display on the first floor behind red curtains. If you enter that area despite the warnings above then anything you can’t deal with is your own problem.

So, David Carradine appears to have become the latest high profile person to have run the risk of death for his kink of choice and lost. Assuming this is true, he’s not the first and he won’t be the last.
It is claimed that up to 1000 people (predominantly men) die each year in the US alone from this practice, although the closest I could find to an official figure for the US was an estimation of one death per million. The majority of these have died during solo indulgence in the act. It is claimed that it accounts for around 6.5% of adolescent deaths. Skydiving, kills around 40 a year in the US, probably because of better safety equipment available to them. So, breath denial acts are far more dangerous to your health than jumping out of a plane. Be warned.
I do have to wag a finger here.. this is no a light spanking we’re talking about here, this is seriously dangerous edge play. If you are going to undertake it you are responsible for your own survival and must make yourself well aware of all the risks and what you can do to minimise them. If you have a partner, then RACK is key. If you’re doing it solo, then risk awareness and good judgement are paramount.
From what I gather it’s no fun being dead, so the idea is to stay alive as long as possible to keep enjoying all the pleasures that life can bring. I know, call me old fashioned but that’s just me
Control of breathing plays a central part of play from tantra to auto-erotic asphyxiation. At the breath denial end of the spectrum you must be far more risk aware and when bondage is added to the mix, it can easily become fatal.
For anyone interested in more information about the practicalities of this activity, this article is good for sensible, basic information. It doesn’t cover the tantric aspect as it’s more focussed on breath restriction and denial rather than individual breath control but then you won’t die from tantric breathing control unless the pleasure really is too much .
Partnered erotic asphyxiation
When doing this with a partner, trust is central.
You truly do have to trust your partner with your life. If they sit there, smile and do nothing instead of allowing you oxygen, then your last sensation will be the horror of betrayal – and there will be nothing you can do to save yourself. If they panic or are sidetracked by enjoying themselves and fail to act then while it may not be deliberate the result will be the same.
For those of you with a suicidal bent, this is sort of the equivalent of death by cop but really you should be seeing a doctor rather than convincing your killer of choice to do the deed. Harsh? Absolutely but with the more extreme types of breath play this is the reality not scare – we are literally talking about taking you to the brink of death for your sexual kick.
So before you ask anyone to indulge in this with you, ask yourself if you trust them with your life and you have confidence they won’t panic under pressure. If you have any doubts, then they’re probably not the person to be indulging this with. That said, if they are just expressing reasonable doubts because of lack of experience, then you might like to consider less intense acts initially to allow you to get a feel for how they react and to allow them the chance to gain confidence and to see if the kink is for them.
Anyone who is asked to do this should not agree unless they are confident they know the signs of distress to look for and how to deal with them. If you don’t think you can cope then the likelihood is you won’t. Doubt is normal and no one has the right to pressure you into participating. If they are then you should look elsewhere because they’re ignoring a serious risk because of their need. They’re putting you at risk of emotional trauma and possible legal consequences all because of what they want.
You must be confident that you will be able to do what you need to, when they need you to. If you’re not, then don’t say yes.
Auto-erotic Asphyxiation
With this kind of play, it is even more important to be aware of the risks and take steps to minimise them.
You must (there is no maybe here) gather as much information as you can to make sure you do have fail-safes that work. Also remember that things like alcohol, age, health issues and over-confidence are also risks. Just because you’re fine one time doesn’t mean that the same fail-safes will be fine for the next. Like all BDSM activities, you must approach each session taking into account the current situation. If you have a cold or hay fever this will impede your breathing, if you’ve been drinking your ability to judge is impaired and of course there are the effects of alcohol on the body to consider.
This is a clinical article that describes the act from a psychiatric viewpoint. It’s a bit dry but there’s a lot of information in there about the associated kinks and the make-up of people who have a taste for this. There is very little official information on this subject and most of it is opinion, either written by people who practice it and are trying to make it safer or are trying to turn you off.
This article is a rather more approachable take on the subject.
Even thought it seems a dorky thing to do, consider leaving a note somewhere that says “This wasn’t suicide, I was just having some fun”. At least then if things go wrong, those who are left behind won’t wonder and you get the satisfaction of tearing it up afterwards while knowing you once again went to the edge and took your pleasure.
My advice is very basic. I believe that there are better ways to get your kicks and this one is just way too risky for my taste but if you’re going to do it, make sure you get as much information as possible and only ever do it when you are drug and alcohol free and in a comfortable frame of mind.
If you’re drunk, stressed, unhappy or tired this is not the kind of thing you should be attempting – all of those things will cloud your judgement, may potentially increase the time to orgasm and will exponentially increase your chance of an unhappy ending.
Designed for use in your dungeon or out in the garden, this restraining post looks at home anywhere.
They look absolutely fabulous and the chaining system used overcomes the constraints of the current SL chaining scripts to give more chainable positions.
This has 35 solo and couples positions with expressions and each has a different set of particle chains generated to allow you to use your captive to generate beautiful brown rope designs as well as tormenting and enjoying them.
The positions include D/s kneels and stands while they wait for you, displaying your prize, foreplay and the more intimate.
The user access to the menus is set to all, but you should change it to owner so you have control of your captive. See the instructions for how to do it.
It comes with matching modifiable and transferable cuffs and a collar. Use these or any LockGuard cuffs and collar.
As always, it comes with full instructions for use (although it’s pretty straight forward – basically rez and use) but it’s useful if you want to permanently adjust the positions or the other configuration options.
It has all the usual features:
* It comes with a transferable set of menu resizable LockGuard compatible cuffs and collar which are designed to be used on any of the Satiated Desires bondage furniture. Don’t forget that you can always buy more in the shop or here on XSL,
* It will automatically switch off an hour after the last time the menu is used. If you want to leave your captive/submissive strung up for longer then you’ll need to remove the ~timeout script (instructions are included). There are other lag reducing features described in the notecard in the box,
* It automatically turns off Zhao AOs when you sit on the balls, they will switch back on again when you jump off,
* It comes with full instructions for tailoring the menu to enhance your pleasure or adjusting the positions and has a FAQ for when things go wrong,
If you want to learn more about how to reduce lag, there’s a notecard vendor by the fountain that can give you more information.
… and there are free demo cuff dispensers on the wall around the shop if you wish to come inworld and try it properly. It’s in the garden and you’ll see it from the tp arrival point.
They are available inworld and though Xstreet SL:

It appears that LL removed a script from the database that is key to making the SexGen items work. You can see Stroker’s post here:
https://www.xstreetsl.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=110813
Stroker has said
The best way to get your item repaired and take advantage of the free repair/gift is to send an IM to Andrea Faulkner detailing the names of the item(s). If you do not get a response from Andrea within a day..please IM me.
This only happened to items that were rezzed inworld when LL decided to delete the script. It has affected items that have been sold since February 2007. So check your items and if they are no longer working then contact Andrea.
Here’s what Andrea has to say:
I’m sorry, but given that this debacle effected every SexGen item sold since February 2007 that was rezzed in world at the time, there are literally thousands of people who have been effected.
Often, these people don;t even realize that they were effected until they try to move their SexGen to a new location, or they touch it and the menu operates, but no balls ever appear.
I simply do not have the time or resources to have each person hand me their SexGen, or worse, try sending it to me when I’m offline, and repair it myself and send it back. I have a simple kit with instructions that I can send to you if you message me, and you yourself can fix your item in about 60 seconds.
See, I get all IMs, my e-mail catches them, but notecards and items offered DO get capped and FOREVER lost… so do NOT send me notecards or objects.
Just IM me, and I swear to you on the lives of the Jonas Brothers (die, die, die) that I WILL get back to you in a matter of hours with a sure fire cure. And yes, you will still get a free gift for the headache. And YES… if the fix I send you fails to work, I will most definately and assuredly fix your toy in person or give you a replacement. Not to worry, we stand behind all our products FOREVER. You are NEVER screwed if you buy from Strokerz Toyz.
