Profile Information
- What has brought you to New Babbage and SL Steampunk?
- I was one of the founders of New Babbage when a group in Caledon was discussing the location of an urban steampunk sim. New Babbage has grown from a group of individuals doing their own thing to a community that is building on each other's ideas. It's nice to see it flourish.
- Could you provide a bit of background about yourself?
- Edward Pearse, Duke of Argylle & Earl of Primbroke, resides with his wife Christine McAllister in Edison.
Owner of Pearse'd & Cut Gentlemen's outfitters, with a penchant for uniforms. The shop in New Babbage was the 2nd of the Pearse'd & Cut locations.
Flying enthusiast, builder, texturer and pedant with a large helping of sarcastic humour added to the mix.
Presenter and forming member of Radio Riel

The actual Primgraph Press
In my spare time since I've dabbled with creating one. I had very little knowledge of how one worked. I knew how a Gutenberg press worked and I'd seen some very modern presses that sped a newspaper through in a matter of seconds. But, thanks to the aetherweb I… Continue

Oh the times, they are a changin'
After discovering an old map of the unterraformed Wheatstone Waterways in my inventory I decided to throw together a quick and dirty gif showing some of the changes that New Babbage has gone through since I started recording maps of the place.
The date sequence is as follows:
2nd April 2008… Continue

An Evil Party & Doctor O's return
The Evil Party organised by Bart Mouse. Lost of people seem to be interested in evil, despite claims to the contrary.

Most amazing sculpt ever
Possibly the most impressive sculpt I have seen in SL. For the most part sculpts are a mystery to me though the Aviatrix of Loch Avie is making them less so. I'm sure if I invested copious quantities of cash in various software applications I could do them with ease, or struggle through with free stuff like Wi… Continue

Off to brave the wilds of a Convention
Not that I've been inworld much this week anyway. He's been specifically away from the house sewing trying to get his costume finished. Sewing somewhere else negates the siren call of the intarwebs.
Once the buttonholes have been sewn onto the tunic, the car will be backed and we're away.
Don't burn the place down while I'm away.

Penelope Strathearn said… - Ooh, someone else here knows what a Deryni is! *grin* If you check out my more recent story blogs on my Ning page and on Zachary Somerset's, or if you read our Wiki bios, you'll see where the "Deryni-ness" comes into my backstory. Basically, our personae hail from an alternate-universe, 19th Century Steampunk Gwynedd descended from the Gwynedd of Kelson's time.
BTW, I ran into Katherine Kurtz in the hallway at Dragon*Con this weekend. She was entering the Food Court as I was leaving. *grin*

- Yeah, I need to go back and read the Deryni books myself...especially given that I'm supposed to be one.... *grin*
You should've seen me up on Moses' build platform a few months ago, as a newbie builder trying to figure out how to make ward cubes and transparent wards. At one point I looked like a translucent turtle!
