Not just broomsticks: a flying bed


While witches are notorious for flying by broomsticks, we have been known to use other objects as vehicles: Mary Poppins travels via umbrella (read the books if you haven't noticed her witchiness before) and Ron and Harry flew a Ford Anglia to Hogwarts.

Fans of the classic movie Bedknobs and Broomsticks will know that it features a flying bed. To activate it you must turn the magically enhanced bedknob, recite a short spell and your bed, yourself and your passengers are flying.

The Bedknob Magic Bed from *Remembers* is based on that flying bed. It seats up to 5 passengers and is ideal for trips where you'd rather not teleport. Just wear the bed, touch the bedknob and you're off. In Fantassseria banlines and avatar expellers other than Linden Lab's own official version are banned. This means that as long as you're above the treetops you can fly anywhere you want unhindered.

For longer journeys I like to open the World Map and select the region I'm aiming for, then minimise the window. This puts a red beacon in the sky for you to aim at and arrows to direct you if you're facing completely the wrong way. Once you're at your destination, you simply hide the beacon using the button at the bottom of the screen.

The *Remembers* bundle includes the wearable flying bed, a rezzable bed that bounces up and down as if ready to take off at any moment, and a static version. The bedcovers and pillows are texture change with a variety of preset textures - and as the bed is modifiable you can add your own as well. The only significant modification I have made was to increase the shininess setting in the Texture tab of the Build window on the bedstead parts to look more brassy (if you do this, don't forget to Select Face as well so that you don't accidentally make your quilt and pillows shiny too).

Love & Light,
