Day 159: Midian City



I was really thrilled when Torley Linden stopped by the blog and posted a comment! He even mentioned that I should go visit this cool place called Midian City :) So, I put together a nice evening gown, and decided to go check out the city.



Hmmm...seems like a nice enough place. Looks like a busy city packed with people. Pale looking people. Say, I remember going to cities like this... where was I?

So...whats with the warning when you enter the city: "Welcome to Midian City! Please read the rules - it is YOUR responsibility to know them."



Ooo a noodle shop! Heehee... can I get a fork please? Theres no way Im going to be able to eat noodles with chopsticks!



Awww...how sweet! Theres a little beach with a fun house. Thats probably why Torley told me to come here. He must know Im a mermaid! :)



They even have a nightclub, the "Twilight Zone"! What a cool place :) I have to thank Torley once Im done partying :P

Hey, watch it! Are you trying to bite me? You know your teeth are way too big for your mouth. Maybe you should check your Appearance settings!



Oh a church! Maybe I can go inside and take a break from those funny people at the club.



Say, why does that priest have funny looking red eyes?



Ah oh...its full moon out... (but then again, its ALWAYS full moon out)



Hello? Yes, can I get a taxi please? Im in Midian City... Hello? Helllloooo? Is anyone there?



Ick...the sewers! Why are all these manhole covers loose!

Oh no...what did Torley get me into? :P


Welcome to Midian City! A dark role-playing (Goth) sim similar to Transylvania and City of Angel's.

Midian City is an amazingly detailed sim. There are way too many locations to list here. And since the sim is packed all the time, you are guaranteed to be in some interesting company while you explore. It is fun to just walk around and see how the "natives" interact. :)

Since it is a role-playing sim, sensibility rules apply: You should read the sim rules, act courteously, restrict non role-playing chat to IM, and dress appropriately (city casual). If you turn your title off, people will generally leave you alone to explore. And dont worry, they cant shoot you unless you wear a gun :)

So check out Midian City if you ever feel like a walk on the wild side. Click on Search, select the Places tab, and enter "midian" as the keyword. The SLURL is Midian City (139,46,30).



Like my "Evil Stepmother" gown? :)

Heehee, yes, of course its based on something...






It is based very loosely on the Dark Lily gown from the movie Legend. This gown was shown only briefly, and there are very few shots of the gown on the Internet. But the gown made an impression on me, cause I can still remember it from years ago. I ended up adapting a few details from the back of the gown to the front to make it more interesting.

The skirt is a dark version of the 2-tiered Vanity dress. The top features large prim collar and shoulders. With shoulders like these, this must be the "power" Goth outfit :P



Um...Blue Poseball, darling, what are you doing hanging around a pool hall in a place like this?

Glad you're covering roleplay sims, Natalia! Looks like great fun- come to the Primordealism sim sometime and see the Noumenon roleplay. Maybe make something Fae or Elfin to come see.
There's plenty of both Spooky in the build as well as beautiful... You can throw on your mer-flippers for the underwater part south of the "bigtree" - you'll see. :)

<3 ! -Cala

Tina, I know its a scandalous cut! But it really is a pretty regular neckline...just continues down Lol. It really doesnt reveal a lot, but is very dramatic!

I didnt turn into a vampire... Still just a little mermaid :P

BooBooKittie, thank you so much! Midian City is a really interesting place... a bit spooky, but interesting :)

Caterin, I dont remember any pianos in Midian City... Lol! Whats wrong with these Goth sims!

Trouble, heehee I love the videos! Here is my favorite version of Sway, BTW http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VvjtmcTkTmE One of my friends looks just like her!

Ana, you should see Midian City :) Really neat place!

Cala, that sounds neat! I will stop by :)

Torley said...

AGAIN let me sing praise! Natalia, I'm just happy I could introduce you to Midian City... so that you could explore, photograph, and then share with us your adventures. Very inspiring.

In this day and age, we still (at least I feel this way) have a severe shortage of Resident explorers who share their travels. I used to do it with greater frequency, and now, I look to people like you as the hope for our adventurous feature.

You are an exploratory role model and both the quality + quantity of your posts are alarmingly heart-warming.

Torley said...

P.S. Thanks for your email and letting me know. I've got your blog aggregated on Bloglines, so I'll be looking out for further journeys!

SLNatalia said...

Torley! Oh no...the "Eye" is watching me :P

Thank you for telling me about Midian and giving me courage to go :P

Heehee and sorry to blame you for it :P
