Corwin HawkBane's life house is a place of whimsical faeries and fountains. When you first come to Corwin's house you can see he took allot of care in decorating.  From the very first bridge to the inside each area made special.




Corwin's favorite area is the" Pagoda in the Mist". This pagoda is set up in the water fall of the life school house, with all the water and mist surrounding this pagoda gives it a new feeling of mystery.

Pirate Showcase- Angel Xiriga


Angel Xiriga's Castaway's Refuge is an outstanding hideout of Botanical Gardening.  When I first came to Angel's hideout the first thing he offered me was lunch, made me smile. Then we took a tour of his wonderful gardens. Each area taken with decorating care.

Angel's favorite place is where he can sit and craft garden tools. You can tell he took allot of thought is creating this spot from the places to sit tables and things that would be needed to craft his tools. My favorite spot was this grand entrance, the way Angel created this door way made the house look completely different. Thank you Angel for allowing to visit your lovely Pirate hideout.

Pirate Hideout -Horace West

Ship


Horace West created a pirate hideout for each of his companions, a home for himself and his crew, with everything they need.  From the elegant ship to the meditation area for his ninja pig this hideout was well thought out.  Horace even his hideout security all st up so He and his crew can feel safe while they sleep under the stars.

Horace said his favorite spots were the training areas and campsite  I agree both are great with even spots for his companions to sleep and eat. I think my favorite spot is the Chapel He created. Seems every hideout I go visit I find items I want. I love that wall decoration in his Chapel. I do hope you enjoy Horace's hideout as much I did.

Ruthless Luke Richardson- First Pirate101 Showcase!!


Welcome to Ruthless Luke Richardson's Volcano Island , an amazing place a Pirate can relax and enjoy themselves. The first place I saw  at Luke's house was his amazing ship! Just check that out with all the royal red and blue colors. I know, I know we are here to see the amazing house but I do love a good Pirate ship ;)

As we travel all along the outside of Luke's island I saw many great places. From little villages to this awesome secret training yard. After I trained for a few moments we went inside the house. After all training can make a Pirate very tired and Oh hungry!


 Luke's favorite room is this stylish Pirate Galley. We sat and ate , I even enjoy a cup of tea before we visited all the other rooms of Luke's Volcano Island. Thank ye Luke I really enjoyed your Pirate hideout.
