Heroes, people with special talents or gifts, first separate from the world, departing from their everyday life patterns. Next, the hero has an initiation into a source of power, experiencing trials and victories. Finally, the hero returns to society, bringing to it the powers gained through the mythic adventure. In reintegrating into society, the hero may be either honored or rejected by others.

The three main stages in the cycle can be broken down into smaller steps, beginning with "The Call to Adventure". The entire cycle is displayed for your enjoyment and edification.

Creating characters

Today we were assigned to take a photo of ourselves and creating
our second life creators as to what we want. My particular character has a black Jacket and cream pants. His medium build and olive skinned, he also has a beard. My name is DimitriP McCaw.





My Photo

As you can see this is a picture of myself you can almost tell I look nothing like my second life character which I don't mind.
Every time I connect with Second Life I appreciate it's features that it offers.






My Creation

Here is my box that I created on Second Life today we went through textures and building objects and I have to say it was alot of fun.






Building

We were assigned to create a building under exact measurements. I was suprised how simple the tools were to use.

Motorcycle World

Today we were allocated to log on our won in Second Life we had to visit 3 venues in Second Life and write a small review on each.

The first venue I selected was Motorbike, when I first entered i realised there was a motor track buldings of all sorts such as Car show rooms, Police stations, Motor garages etc. It also included some kind of force fields to some of the buildings such as the police station you need special access to enter.



Tropical Beach

The second view that I visited was a tropical beach it had all of the above Shops a beach strip with cafes and shops and of course a beautiful beach it was buzzing with players it also included a park which had parks trees and water fountains.Visually it looked really good.





Alanti_1

The third world that I entered was called Al anti1 it basically was some sort of room which included motorcycles, show room cars and of course nude pictures of ladies covered on all rooms of the complex. I think this site was for mature audiences.
