Sparklepires ahoy!

Jun 14, 2009 16:45

Just wanted to say that Yima on GOS was kind enough to turn Astiee's Extreme Skin : Sparkling Flesh into a vampire default. She made one using Sussi's Mirror Gold eyes, which you can find here--



and one made so that your vamp keeps the original eye color (presumably you could add contacts to your tiny heart's content). You can find that here.

It does not, of course, keep said sparklepires from frying in the sun just like Maxis vampires. In fact, I found that with motive decay off, vampires won't fry, but they still smoke and cringe at the sun.

I could not wait to test drive these, but I thought poor Ulysses had suffered enough. The last time I made him into a sparklepire, he killed himself in the sun, and I think Doc is right: he was trying to tell me something. So I thought it would be nice to try them out on somebody more familiar.

Like Daniel Pleasant.



Mary Sue: Daniel in the sunlight was shocking. I couldn't get used to it. . .



. . . though I'd been staring at him all afternoon. His skin . . . literally sparkled, like thousands of tiny diamonds were embedded in the surface. . . .



. . . incandescent chest, scintillating bare arms, hooo, MAMA.



Trufax: Mary Sue did seem to like new SparklyVamp!Daniel. She stalked him, Leaping in Arms and whatnot, until she had to go to work.



Daniel:  Whoa.  Do I get to be all superstrong and nice-smelling and invulnerably smexxy?

Not exactly.

I was a bit surprised that Dan's motives seemed to be stuck, not sure why.  At first he was getting a very slight bladder and energy drain and not much else. This changed dramatically once I got him outside.



Daniel:  Hey!  What did I ever do to you?

It's because you're a jerk, and you're married to a Mary Sue.  And where I've got you, even a Sue can't hear you scream.



Glittery, going, going. . .



. . . going on the sidewalk. . .



. . . should go and take a shower. . .



. . . gone.



Grim:  YES?  I THOUGHT WE HAD A STRICT NO SPARKLEPIRES POLICY.  IT'S CANON:  THEY DON'T FRY.  NO OF COURSE I DON'T READ THOSE BOOKS.  WELL, FINE.  I WAS JUST CHECKING.

Kaylynn:  *sobs hysterically*



Kaylynn:  What?  Yah, sure I'm devastated and all but I've got other houses to clean and my heart will GO ON. . .

(strains of Celine Dion ensue).

So if you're interested, use them for Good or Evil, your own definition applies.  Still, I think the skins are pretty darned cool, and they look way, way better in game--they really do sparkle.
