Wolf Moon is live at BPAL!

Recommended Posts

Sorry if this shiny and new plug is a little disjointed. The holiday season is a crazymaker, and I am ass-dragging tired!

 

Wolf Moon is live at BPAL. The Black Phoenix Trading Post Wolf Moon update will go live tomorrow night.

 

Starting this Lunacy, we will be celebrating the full moon twice-over by offering a therianthropic blend in tandem with the Lunacy perfume. This month’s A Lot of Lunacy blend is dedicated to our Hellenic representative from the werewolf caucus: Lycaon.

 

WOLF MOON

This pale and glittering moon hangs high over the deep snows and freezing winds of midwinter. January’s full moon has been named the Wolf Moon by many cultures, as the nights are filled with the howls of ravenous wolf packs, and the danger of falling prey to the animal’s desperate hunger is at its peak.

 

This scent is that of unending, unquenchable hunger and feral madness. This is the dead of winter: a frozen night, chill wind, and the sharp, warm perfume of blood, fur, fang, and claw. Winter air, Terebinth pine, juniper berry, dusty orris, deep amber, white sandalwood, black musk, blue cedar, and tonka.

 

LYCAON

Lycaon was the first king of Arcadia, and though his country prospered under his rule, he possessed a streak of viciousness that earned him the great god Zeus’ ire. Zeus had heard tales of Lycaon’s impiety and cruelty, and in order to find out the truth about the King of Arcadia, he disguised himself as a beggar and sought hospitality in the king’s court. Lycaon and his fifty equally sadistic sons discovered the identity of their guest, and foolishly served Zeus a meal of soup that contained sheep and goat entrails, and the flesh of Lycaon’s fifty-first son, Nictimos. Zeus, consumed with rage and disgust, struck the king’s home with a lightning bolt, and transformed Lycaon and his sons into creatures more suited to their savage natures: werewolves.

 

A monstrous, brutal, and bloodthirsty blend: blackened myrrh, crushed olive leaf, black musk, spikenard, frankincense, cypress wood, opoponax, white ginger, and patchouli.

 

The Halloweenies, Order of the Dragon, and Anniversary scents have been given a brief reprieve. They will remain live until Wolf Moon comes down on December 7, 2006.

 

Also new this update… a new exhibit in the Salon! 16 new artistic interpretations are available for your perusal. A new imp set is also available there, and covers all sixteen of the new perfumes.

 

The next Carnaval Diabolique act will be live in December, along with a few other surprises that will span BPAL, BPTP, and TAL.

 

Whoops! Almost forgot...

 

Shub-Niggurath is back. :P

 

We sincerely hope that everyone’s winter is glittering, and is as painless and drama-free as possible!
