Profile Information

Introduction: Hello, I'm Professor Diana Holt, Noted Lycanthropologist, Professor of... well, former professor of Cryptozoology and Monstrumology. I'm a bit between teaching positions. Universities are terribly prejudiced against werewolves, you know, but don't worry, I'm a perfectly domesticated lycanthrope. As part of my research, and search for a cure, I often help others with their monster issues, so, should you have some sort of cryptozooogical problem, feel free to ask me for help.

(Okay, in real life, I'm definitely not a werewolf or a professor, but I am an amateur folklorist and trained fine artist. I’ve competed at a few nonsteampunk conventions, mostly sci-fi and fantasy ones, I am currently considered a master-class costumer. However, my forte lies in props and monsters, not normal clothing, so, I’m bringing my talents here and hoping I can add something to the community.)

The Steampunk Empire Symposium Costume Competition!

Oh wow! I was the winner for the ladies, and it's so wonderful to get to see this, since my vision was a bit obscured at the time! Regarding the show and the video, I just love some of the things said:“Don’t touch them unless they offer!”  This. Always this.“The Green Freaking Lantern. Character Description: See above.” “I’m getting’ a little toasty~” “…there would be convention pins, but I have not seen them materialize.”  “Materialize” is a wonderful word.“Outside a dog, a book is a man’s…See More

"Oooh, you're right! My goodness, I might die of cute if there are any kids dressed up as Ewoks next year... (Oh no, Kitsune Kooties!)"

Steampunk Symposium Con Report

Otherwise known as "Everything Went Better Than Expected."So, here's the deal: while I'm not new to steampunk, I am new to the steampunk community. I was raised by trekkies and my father taught me about the various punks and the ins and outs of sci-fi and fantasy at a young age. So, I've been doing steampunkish stuff and enjoying steampunk work for a while, but actively avoided the community since I'd been warned that most steampunks were "snobby historical recreation costumers who got…See More

" Well, next year's symposium should be interesting, and those of us with a 'fuzzy' nature may find ourselves joined by Wookies and Ewoks."

Dracology Specimen: Draco Clepta Parvum

While rarely as large as some of its cousins, the male Draco Clepta is one of the more notorious hoarders of the various dragon species. While they are juveniles, they collect small, shiny things, ranging from coins, to buttons, to ribbons. However,…

"Well, here’s a super late reply on my part… I guess I’ll just blame delays in the telegram relays or something. Anyway, if you see me around at the symposium, feel free to say hi and such; I swear I don’t bite…"

This will be my first Steampunk event as well! I am waiting to make fare for the air tickets & hoping to room with some acquaintances who will be doing panels & have an airship, so I would love to possibly peruse the convention in your company if u don't mind. I am terribly shy & concerned I may not come out of my room if I've not planned ahead to join like-minded individuals for strolls around the place!

At 7:36pm on February 8, 2013, Sir Ernest Octave Suszczynski said…: I do hope you are enjoying the Empire and will take a look at our Airship page: Airship Passepartout. I admit we have not been very active on the Empire in some time, but we do keep up a very active schedule on our facebook page. We have events coming up this Saturday, Sunday and on the 22nd.

Also, I noticed that you would be attending the Steampunk Symposium in April. If you are not already affiliated with an airship we would be delighted if you would consider joining Airship Passepartout as we defend our title from last year.

Please feel free to ask me any question you may have regarding our airship the local events or steampunk in general.

Sincerely,
Sir Ernest Octave Suszczynski
