News and Updates

We’ve put out a holiday-themed Legends Satchel. If you take your wand to the dome at Bloodlines Midland you can summon one for yourself before they go away at the end of the month!

Bloodlines is having a photo contest! We are feeling quite festive and we want to see what makes you get into the holiday spirit, whatever frosts your snowman! The best photos will be featured in the banner on our website, as well as hung in a gallery down on Bloodlines North.

The contest is free to enter, and you may enter as many times as you like (as long as each photo is different).

How to Enter
1) Take a photo of a winter scene, avatar(s) dressed in a holiday theme (can be yourself or another), or a beautiful winter  tableau. Final dimensions need to be our Website Banner size, so at least 2400 x 600, max 4800 x 1200. If you wish, you can submit a photo that is square (2400×2400 min) but make sure that there is a croppable strip appropriate for a banner.

To submit an entry, create a new ticket in our support system, include “Winter Photo Contest” in the title and be sure to include your avatar name: http://slbloodlines.com/support

Contest Rules
Time: The contest will end on December 4th, 2020.

Judging: Entries will be judged by Mars Bracken, Lyle Maeterlinck and LiquidDesigns Resident

Criteria: Entries will be judged based on the overall image, but some things to consider might be setting/location, lighting, and mood, and whether you have some RP or race elements present (angel, demon, vampire, etc.). Photoshopping is of course acceptable but please don’t add text to the photos. Bloodlines also reserves the right to do slight photoshopping to winners (if necessary) in order to format them for the final banners.

Prizes
– Top Runners Up (number TBD)will receive Photo Silver texture for one type of container
– 1st Place Winners (number TBD) will receive Photo Gold texture for one type of container as well as becoming a banner on the Bloodlines homepage.

We’re looking forward to checking out all the entries and picking the best ones for our site. Good luck!

There are 42 pieces to find in all and each piece gives you 10 stamina. This mini game is only available for a limited time, so get the candies while you can!

We’re thrilled to announce a new set of items in the Bloodlines: Domain series: The Haunted Domain!

If you remember the early days of Bloodlines, it spawned out of our original store of mesh avatar accessories and sim decor “The Crypt”. Those items were great for their day, but as mesh eventually arrived they became dated and we retired them. We get frequent requests for those items to return (particularly around Halloween) so we finally decided to dive in and release a new set.

We’ll be releasing items all through the month of October, so check back here to see the latest release. Some of the sets will tie-in to Bloodlines Legends quests will be also coming out with regularity during the month of October.

There is a brick-and-mortar store in our Demon Badlands sky plaza (near the Torment store) and the items will also shortly appear on MP and in the old Crypt affiliate vendors.

Happy decorating!

Demon Badlands Haunted Domain Store

We’re excited to announce the next official grid-wide Bloodlines Event – The Haunted Tour 2020! It will start on October 1st and run to October 31st.

The Haunted Tour is an event for people who wish to show off their haunted houses, dungeons, clubs and bars for the spooky holiday ahead.  Anyone owning a Bloodlines Haunt can opt-in, and anyone with a HUD will be able to participate in the tour.

What specifically does this mean for Bloodlines players? It means during that month we’ll be connecting participating Haunts up via the website and the HUDs, so that you can easily travel from haunted location to haunted location, and meet up with people while discovering new Bloodlines-friendly places.

For Haunt owners, this event means a chance to get your location on the map! The Haunted Tour will provide an influx of new visitors, as well as give you a chance to network with other Bloodlines friendly locations. Players will be able to vote on their favorite Haunts, and prizes will be awarded at the end. Mars, Lyle Liquid Designs Resident and other officials will be visiting participating locations to help with the final judging of the top locations, and we hope to see you there! On the final day (Saturday October 31st) we’ll be having an event on the Bloodlines sims, and we’ll give away the prizes.

Voting will start in a few days and run until October 30th. During that time, all you need to do to vote is press the ‘Vote’ link next to the Haunted Tour icon on the profile of participating haunts.

Prizes (Awarded at the end of the Month):

Haunted Tour Participation Rare – Given to anyone who opted-in their location to the event. (Limit one per avatar)

10 Runner-Up Rares (Silver Crown) – Given to the best 10 Haunted Locations (or more if judges decide there are more worthy runners-up).

3 Top Rares (Gold Crown) – Given to the top 3 Haunted Locations. These will also receive a banner on the Bloodlines homepage for a week following the event.

Getting involved is simple:

Location Owners – If you already have a Haunt, just log into your profile, Edit Haunts, and opt-in via the radio button for the Haunted Tour Event. Make sure to use the Haunt Events calendar to schedule specific times for your events.

Bloodlines players – The Haunted Tour will automatically generate locations in your HUD, under the Haunt button. We’ll also make it clear on the website which locations are participating, so you should be able to easily find the next great location to visit!

At the end of the month on October 31st, we’ll wrap it up with an official party / awards ceremony on the Bloodlines sims where we’ll deliver all the prizes, so be sure to stop by. See you there!
