  • Panties of Legend
    Kris Newton [email protected] The Power to Change the World is in your Panties YOU are a regular, panty-wearing slob like the rest of us. You have exactly three layers – the same number as everybody else, and nearly half as many as a burrito. You've got a few distinguishing Features that make you stand out, one or two Fetishes that occasionally make you spout comical nosebleeds, and a Big Dream in your heart. You live a normal, boring life, but this roleplaying game isn't about that. That would be stupid. It's about the way your life changes when you don the Panties of Legend. THE PANTIES OF LEGEND are mysterious underwear of unknown origin. Only a handful of the panties are known to exist (and if the phrase "handful of the panties" excites you, you're playing the right game). When you sublimate sexual urges, your panties charge up like an overwrought metaphor for burgeoning sexuality, granting you superhuman Powers. Nothing can stop you when your panties are magical... except for your Rivals. YOUR RIVALS wear the other Panties of Legend. Despite their rarity, Panties of Legend probably belong to all your best friends and worst enemies at work or school. Go figure. When a Rival is near, you feel a tingle in your panties. Don't be confused; that's your body's natural way of telling you to defeat your Rivals and increase your magical powers. The only way to safely gain Panty Power is to make other Panties of Legend explode. PANTIES OF LEGEND GAIN POWER WHEN YOU'RE TURNED ON, BUT EXPLODE WHEN THEY'RE OVERCHARGED.

  • Press Kit the History of French Lingerie at the Sagamore Hotel Miami Beach
    LINGERIE FRANCAISE EXHIBITION PRESS KIT THE HISTORY OF FRENCH LINGERIE AT THE SAGAMORE HOTEL MIAMI BEACH Continuing its world tour, the Lingerie Francaise exhibition will be presented at the famous Sagamore Hotel Miami Beach during the Art Basel Fair in Miami Beach from November 29th through December 6th, 2016. Free and open to all, the exhibition showcases the ingeniousness and creativity of French lingerie which, for over a century and a half, has been worn by millions of women worldwide. The exhibition is an immersion into the collections of eleven of the most prestigious French brands: AUBADE, BARBARA, CHANTELLE, EMPREINTE, IMPLICITE, LISE CHARMEL, LOU, LOUISA BRACQ, MAISON LEJABY, PASSIONATA and SIMONE PÉRÈLE. With both elegance and playfulness, the story of an exceptional craft unfolds in a space devoted to contemporary art. The heart of this historic exhibition takes place in the Game Room of the Sagamore Hotel. Beginning with the first corsets of the 1880’s, the presentation documents the custom-made creations of the 1930’s, showcases the lingerie of the 1950’s that was the first to use nylon, and culminates with the widespread use of Lycra® in the 1980’s, an epic era of forms and fabrics. This section focuses on contemporary and future creations; including the Lingerie Francaise sponsored competition’s winning entry by Salima Abes, a recent graduate from the university ESMOD Paris. An exclusive collection of approximately one hundred pieces will be exhibited, all of them emblematic of a technique, textile, and/or fashion innovation. A selection of landmark pieces will trace both the history of intimacy and the narrative of women’s liberation.

There just aren’t a lot of items that everyday adventurers want, Footwear 14 that won’t break the bank so to speak, and are things that are actually useful. Everybody wears clothes (I don’t want to think about nude D&D), and everybody loves magic items for their Accessories 16 character.. Combining the two seemed like a good idea, but I didn’t want Special Orders 20 to go with just pants, shirts, etc. I scoured the internet for medieval period clothing, and narrowed down a list of items that were common across a wide range of times and places throughout Europe during the Middle Ages. Now, I did come Glossary 22 across some interesting clothing items that fell outside that range or geography, and a few are included here. None of the items presented here are gender specific. I intentionally left any mention of that out of each item.
