1
00:00:39,966 --> 00:00:43,048
Good evening, and thank you for joining me tonight

2
00:00:43,249 --> 00:00:46,466
for a new video about the props I've used

3
00:00:46,732 --> 00:00:48,469
in my roleplays.

4
00:00:48,902 --> 00:00:54,153
So this is going to be the 5th episode I guess,

5
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,903
and it's been a while since the last one.

6
00:00:58,123 --> 00:01:02,355
So in tonight's video I will cover several roleplays

7
00:01:02,557 --> 00:01:04,190
from the last year,

8
00:01:04,672 --> 00:01:09,893
and show you the props I find to be the most interesting.

9
00:01:10,810 --> 00:01:14,493
So not all of them, there are many,

10
00:01:14,693 --> 00:01:19,296
and I do not wish to make a 4 hours long video.

11
00:01:19,679 --> 00:01:25,247
So let's dive in, and start with the french teacher roleplays.

12
00:01:26,828 --> 00:01:31,416
And I'm going to show you the tingliest prop first :

13
00:01:32,283 --> 00:01:35,184
this is the wooden abacus.

14
00:01:40,335 --> 00:01:45,418
I used this one in the first teacher roleplay at the end of 2020

15
00:01:48,237 --> 00:01:53,209
and I fell in love with the sounds.

16
00:02:03,810 --> 00:02:06,811
I remember I spent a lot of time looking

17
00:02:07,328 --> 00:02:10,813
for one that could look old enough

18
00:02:11,146 --> 00:02:14,697
and not with all these colorful beads

19
00:02:14,928 --> 00:02:18,127
that we usually see on modern abacuses.

20
00:02:18,127 --> 00:02:22,397
And this one was almost perfect.

21
00:02:23,551 --> 00:02:26,984
This is a Russian abacus, so slightly different

22
00:02:27,167 --> 00:02:29,721
from the western European abacuses

23
00:02:30,087 --> 00:02:33,420
or those from China.

24
00:02:34,882 --> 00:02:39,328
There are 2 rows with 4 beads,

25
00:02:40,326 --> 00:02:42,897
to count quarters.

26
00:02:48,728 --> 00:02:51,111
And on the others, we have

27
00:02:51,429 --> 00:03:07,384
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 beads.

28
00:03:11,201 --> 00:03:20,587
And, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 rows.

29
00:04:00,516 --> 00:04:03,686
And now, the chalks box.

30
00:04:10,239 --> 00:04:13,339
When it come to chalks, I know some people

31
00:04:13,589 --> 00:04:17,973
think of the screechy sound of the blackboard,

32
00:04:18,483 --> 00:04:25,433
but what I enjoy is the sound coming from the chalks themselves.

33
00:04:25,652 --> 00:04:27,523
I don't know if it makes sense.

34
00:04:30,175 --> 00:04:38,577
And that's why I used it as a trigger, in both of the videos,

35
00:04:40,893 --> 00:04:44,295
with a box filled with chalks.

36
00:05:06,100 --> 00:05:10,171
So there are different colors...

37
00:05:12,053 --> 00:05:13,103
Brown,

38
00:05:14,705 --> 00:05:15,955
blue,

39
00:05:17,407 --> 00:05:19,006
green,

40
00:05:21,740 --> 00:05:23,173
white,

41
00:05:28,009 --> 00:05:29,693
orange,

42
00:05:35,746 --> 00:05:37,596
yellow.

43
00:05:38,929 --> 00:05:40,179
And...

44
00:05:43,713 --> 00:05:45,331
That's it.

45
00:06:00,954 --> 00:06:02,970
These are very light.

46
00:06:05,387 --> 00:06:09,042
And I added other kinds in the box,

47
00:06:09,658 --> 00:06:12,158
that were heavier.

48
00:06:14,439 --> 00:06:16,507
But I just can't find them...

49
00:06:41,216 --> 00:06:42,449
Alright.

50
00:07:16,559 --> 00:07:21,012
And I wanted to show you a few other props

51
00:07:21,246 --> 00:07:22,729
from these roleplays.

52
00:07:23,195 --> 00:07:26,163
I mean books, of course.

53
00:07:26,932 --> 00:07:30,166
Especially two of them, that I used

54
00:07:30,565 --> 00:07:35,716
at the end of each video, for reading.

55
00:07:39,318 --> 00:07:41,568
There was this one,

56
00:07:43,652 --> 00:07:46,921
"Anthologie des poètes du XIXème siècle",

57
00:07:49,506 --> 00:07:53,621
it's a volume of poetry from the 19th century,

58
00:07:54,122 --> 00:07:58,309
probably published at the beginning of the 20th century,

59
00:07:59,241 --> 00:08:03,843
with many poems from french or belgian poets.

60
00:08:04,810 --> 00:08:11,111
I found this book for 2 euros on a second-hand website,

61
00:08:11,345 --> 00:08:14,696
and that was such a bargain.

62
00:08:16,546 --> 00:08:19,514
It's in very good condition.

63
00:08:26,432 --> 00:08:30,468
With crinkly pages.

64
00:09:08,987 --> 00:09:11,539
And there was this one,

65
00:09:16,038 --> 00:09:18,705
that I used in the first roleplay.

66
00:09:19,458 --> 00:09:23,641
This is called "Claire à la ville" : "Claire in town",

67
00:09:25,725 --> 00:09:28,892
by A. Deval.

68
00:09:30,381 --> 00:09:35,849
This book belonged to my great grand-mother, Juliette,

69
00:09:36,317 --> 00:09:42,200
and she probably got it around 1910, I guess.

70
00:09:43,318 --> 00:09:46,455
And I have no information about this book.

71
00:09:46,804 --> 00:09:49,603
It looks like it's not published anymore

72
00:09:49,905 --> 00:09:54,289
and I could not even find the name of the writer,

73
00:09:54,623 --> 00:09:59,474
it could be Amélie, Alexandre, I have no idea.

74
00:09:59,944 --> 00:10:04,668
And it's not really in good condition.

75
00:10:18,223 --> 00:10:21,965
And it seems that my great grand-mother

76
00:10:23,021 --> 00:10:27,468
used it to dry clovers.

77
00:10:28,247 --> 00:10:32,536
So these are more than 100 years old.

78
00:10:40,051 --> 00:10:44,270
Four leaf clovers of course...

79
00:10:58,042 --> 00:10:59,908
Another one.

80
00:11:25,067 --> 00:11:29,167
So that was my selection from these 2 videos.

81
00:11:29,733 --> 00:11:33,968
And now I'm going to show you some props from

82
00:11:34,336 --> 00:11:37,269
"The Lady of the manor" series.

83
00:11:37,954 --> 00:11:41,770
And we're going to start with a book again....

84
00:11:42,605 --> 00:11:45,956
But this one is a bit special.

85
00:11:47,923 --> 00:11:50,206
It is a blank book

86
00:11:52,011 --> 00:11:54,442
made of cotton paper.

87
00:11:57,410 --> 00:12:00,532
And I used it twice.

88
00:12:32,906 --> 00:12:36,057
There you can see some lines

89
00:12:37,408 --> 00:12:43,976
from "Tristan & Isolde", that I copied with some kind of

90
00:12:44,292 --> 00:12:50,580
a sloppy handwriting, so I could quickly fill a page.

91
00:12:50,930 --> 00:12:55,296
And these are the lines I read in front of

92
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,332
a real stone fireplace.

93
00:13:29,209 --> 00:13:32,559
And these...

94
00:13:33,709 --> 00:13:38,479
...were written when I was supposed to count my money.

95
00:13:49,882 --> 00:13:53,681
Cotton paper doesn't make any kind of crinkly sound

96
00:13:53,931 --> 00:13:55,432
as you can hear.

97
00:13:55,764 --> 00:14:01,602
It's much smoother and very soft.

98
00:14:18,093 --> 00:14:23,108
And each page is a one of a kind.

99
00:14:24,342 --> 00:14:26,876
This is my favorite paper.

100
00:14:28,043 --> 00:14:31,377
It looks so authentic.

101
00:15:01,537 --> 00:15:02,770
Alright.

102
00:15:04,454 --> 00:15:08,146
And the next item is a glass ball.

103
00:15:08,288 --> 00:15:13,239
Nothing precious, you can find one for 10 dollars.

104
00:15:14,623 --> 00:15:18,424
And you can use it as a magnifying glass

105
00:15:18,624 --> 00:15:22,657
if you hold it very close to what you're looking at,

106
00:15:22,927 --> 00:15:24,877
almost on it.

107
00:15:25,712 --> 00:15:31,027
Or it can create an inverted image if you hold it further,

108
00:15:31,227 --> 00:15:34,597
in front of a landscape for example.

109
00:15:35,346 --> 00:15:38,496
And it is often used in photography.

110
00:15:38,745 --> 00:15:41,663
But I used mine as a magnifying glass

111
00:15:41,964 --> 00:15:44,166
to examine some coins,

112
00:15:45,082 --> 00:15:52,167
and I like the soft, light, metallic sound it makes

113
00:15:53,950 --> 00:15:57,093
when it's rubbed on a coin.

114
00:16:06,894 --> 00:16:10,880
It is a very unusual sound in my opinion.

115
00:16:23,917 --> 00:16:26,617
Do you like it ?

116
00:16:36,503 --> 00:16:40,040
Let's try another one...

117
00:17:08,365 --> 00:17:11,199
Alright.

118
00:17:16,633 --> 00:17:21,952
And the final props from this video series I wanted to show you

119
00:17:22,203 --> 00:17:27,605
are the jeweller's scale and, of course, the coins.

120
00:17:42,893 --> 00:17:48,628
This kind of scale was mainly used by jewellers and pharmacists

121
00:17:48,845 --> 00:17:55,530
because you can weigh some very small, very light items

122
00:17:55,863 --> 00:17:58,583
and it's quite accurate.

123
00:18:06,650 --> 00:18:08,701
What a mess...

124
00:18:15,736 --> 00:18:19,005
So, it is quite easy to use.

125
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,507
This one is slightly broken, but let's try it.

126
00:18:24,907 --> 00:18:30,356
So I'm going to weigh a small coin.

127
00:18:32,805 --> 00:18:34,908
Let's try this one.

128
00:18:38,141 --> 00:18:45,695
And I'm going to try different weights that we have in the drawer

129
00:18:49,281 --> 00:18:56,682
until there is the perfect balance between the 2 small dishes.

130
00:18:57,883 --> 00:18:59,481
So, 5 grams.

131
00:19:00,834 --> 00:19:03,349
Let's try 7...

132
00:19:11,603 --> 00:19:13,653
9..

133
00:19:15,154 --> 00:19:20,771
Alright, so this coin's weight is 9 grams.

134
00:19:35,096 --> 00:19:40,244
And there are even lighters weights in this box.

135
00:20:04,038 --> 00:20:07,306
And now let's have a look at the coins.

136
00:20:07,822 --> 00:20:11,472
I already made an entire video with them

137
00:20:11,722 --> 00:20:15,758
but I didn't explain where they came from.

138
00:20:22,794 --> 00:20:29,611
So there are game coins, made by Legendary.

139
00:20:30,539 --> 00:20:37,156
Often used for roleplaying games like D&D

140
00:20:39,309 --> 00:20:41,625
There are many coins series,

141
00:20:41,875 --> 00:20:47,959
but I chose 3 of them : Medieval, Celtic and Elvish.

142
00:20:49,762 --> 00:20:55,180
Of course, as always, I will put links down below.

143
00:21:07,415 --> 00:21:15,918
And, these are reproductions of Spanish doubloons

144
00:21:16,404 --> 00:21:20,237
used during the 16th century.

145
00:21:20,787 --> 00:21:23,155
They're very pretty.

146
00:21:27,889 --> 00:21:30,341
There is a smaller one.

147
00:21:33,109 --> 00:21:35,710
And of course, it is not gold.

148
00:22:35,796 --> 00:22:39,915
And that's it for "The lady of the manor".

149
00:22:43,398 --> 00:22:50,133
Now I know I already made a video about the Steampunk optometrist props

150
00:22:50,534 --> 00:22:54,768
but since there were new ones in the latest version,

151
00:22:55,451 --> 00:22:59,737
I thought I would show a few of them.

152
00:23:04,571 --> 00:23:10,057
This is often used in ASMR roleplays.

153
00:23:14,457 --> 00:23:17,875
This is an otoscope, for ear exam.

154
00:23:44,701 --> 00:23:49,654
So this one might be from the fifties, but I'm not sure.

155
00:23:53,538 --> 00:23:56,092
It might be a bit older.

156
00:23:57,191 --> 00:24:01,274
It comes with 3 different sizes of tips,

157
00:24:06,542 --> 00:24:09,927
depending on the size of the ear,

158
00:24:11,277 --> 00:24:13,977
if it's an adult, a child...

159
00:24:16,897 --> 00:24:21,831
There was a light, but it's broken

160
00:24:22,599 --> 00:24:27,300
and at the back a magnifying glass.

161
00:24:36,621 --> 00:24:43,037
So it's not very different from the ones we see today.

162
00:24:57,794 --> 00:25:03,060
And this tool is an ophtalmoscope.

163
00:25:04,694 --> 00:25:09,164
Probably from the 20s or 30s,

164
00:25:10,563 --> 00:25:15,082
so it comes with 2 magnifying glasses

165
00:25:20,709 --> 00:25:26,421
and a small mirror to reflect the light

166
00:25:26,703 --> 00:25:30,187
directly into the patient's pupil.

167
00:25:42,123 --> 00:25:46,123
It is a very basic tool, not really used anymore.

168
00:25:52,368 --> 00:25:54,387
And it was not easy to find...

169
00:25:55,651 --> 00:26:00,120
This was often used during the 19th century,

170
00:26:00,503 --> 00:26:06,089
until beginning / middle of the 20th century.

171
00:26:10,322 --> 00:26:13,791
And since some parts are made of plastic,

172
00:26:14,026 --> 00:26:17,625
this one can't be more than 100 years old.

173
00:26:19,792 --> 00:26:23,844
And this is the kind of prop I love

174
00:26:24,077 --> 00:26:26,878
because it can give so many tingles.

175
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:35,449
These are lenses, for glasses.

176
00:26:38,898 --> 00:26:42,767
Not for eye exam.

177
00:26:46,268 --> 00:26:51,804
We can see there is a hole on each of them

178
00:26:53,187 --> 00:26:56,654
so it can be put on a frame.

179
00:27:04,708 --> 00:27:12,010
These are probably from the 40s or 50s, not that old.

180
00:27:13,394 --> 00:27:17,511
And they were ready to be mounted.

181
00:27:18,944 --> 00:27:22,631
And they make such lovely sounds

182
00:27:22,881 --> 00:27:26,264
in these cardboard boxes.

183
00:28:38,727 --> 00:28:41,993
And now let's skip to another roleplay

184
00:28:43,783 --> 00:28:47,419
that was supposed to take place in 1812.

185
00:28:48,467 --> 00:28:52,505
When I was getting you ready for the ball.

186
00:28:55,006 --> 00:28:59,524
And for this roleplay I used several boxes

187
00:29:00,875 --> 00:29:09,559
in which I put homemade cosmetics and makeup tools

188
00:29:09,811 --> 00:29:12,993
such as the rouge or the cloves.

189
00:29:14,062 --> 00:29:20,664
And I found these boxes on second-hand websites, as usual.

190
00:29:21,381 --> 00:29:23,841
Except one.

191
00:29:25,898 --> 00:29:28,730
I found this one on Etsy.

192
00:29:43,980 --> 00:29:50,884
This is a powder box, with its old-fashioned puff.

193
00:29:53,026 --> 00:29:57,142
And supposed to be from the Georgian era,

194
00:29:57,333 --> 00:30:02,866
meaning end of the 18th / beginning of the 19th century

195
00:30:03,051 --> 00:30:04,184
but I doubt it.

196
00:30:04,830 --> 00:30:06,848
This is in very good condition,

197
00:30:07,532 --> 00:30:09,948
and it wasn't that expensive

198
00:30:10,264 --> 00:30:16,151
and the puff handle seems to be made of plastic,

199
00:30:16,401 --> 00:30:20,867
and that means it can't be more than 100 years old.

200
00:30:22,567 --> 00:30:27,587
It could be bone, so maybe end of the 19th century,

201
00:30:28,420 --> 00:30:31,871
but it looks like plastic to me.

202
00:30:34,457 --> 00:30:43,195
Still, this is a beautiful object, vey soft and fluffy.

203
00:31:00,916 --> 00:31:03,999
Let's put it back.

204
00:31:12,467 --> 00:31:13,819
And...

205
00:31:17,237 --> 00:31:20,672
there we have smaller boxes.

206
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:24,989
These are usually meant for pills,

207
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:31,173
and probably not very old.

208
00:31:31,723 --> 00:31:34,892
I found them for a couple of euros.

209
00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:48,346
This one is shiny.

210
00:31:56,933 --> 00:32:00,184
But my favorite is this one.

211
00:32:17,689 --> 00:32:21,325
There is a kind of heart shape.

212
00:32:29,326 --> 00:32:33,276
And I found this one in my grand-mother's house.

213
00:32:43,665 --> 00:32:48,299
Let's see if you can have a closer look.

214
00:33:08,438 --> 00:33:15,225
And I've had this one for quite a time now.

215
00:33:15,710 --> 00:33:19,059
I used it for the apothecary roleplays.

216
00:33:23,609 --> 00:33:26,980
This is made of tin and glass.

217
00:33:37,132 --> 00:33:40,099
It looks like I put powder everywhere.

218
00:33:49,152 --> 00:33:50,436
Alright.

219
00:34:00,717 --> 00:34:05,883
And finally, let's have a look at the props from the wand shop roleplay.

220
00:34:06,551 --> 00:34:12,102
And there were many of course so again this is just a selection.

221
00:34:14,100 --> 00:34:18,304
And I cannot talk about a wand shop

222
00:34:18,505 --> 00:34:21,505
without talking about wands.

223
00:34:23,771 --> 00:34:27,674
These are from the set.

224
00:34:27,974 --> 00:34:32,759
All handmade and each one is a one of a kind.

225
00:34:35,108 --> 00:34:39,012
So there was this first set.

226
00:34:43,396 --> 00:34:47,698
They're very long, maybe too long to be comfortable

227
00:34:47,914 --> 00:34:51,848
if you have to fight against the dark forces.

228
00:34:55,122 --> 00:34:57,557
More like a sword.

229
00:35:18,113 --> 00:35:23,093
But still I found them quite interesting,

230
00:35:24,013 --> 00:35:27,814
and different from the wands we usually see

231
00:35:28,047 --> 00:35:31,767
including those we see in the Harry Potter movies.

232
00:35:33,067 --> 00:35:36,417
These wands were bought second-hand

233
00:35:36,634 --> 00:35:39,901
so I have no information about the creator.

234
00:35:56,006 --> 00:36:03,742
I like these 2, the handles are beautiful.

235
00:36:04,527 --> 00:36:05,976
And...

236
00:36:23,634 --> 00:36:26,083
...these are my favorites.

237
00:36:29,798 --> 00:36:31,503
Much shorter.

238
00:36:44,173 --> 00:36:48,190
And my absolute favorite is this one.

239
00:36:52,559 --> 00:36:55,992
You might recognize this one as well

240
00:36:56,493 --> 00:36:59,776
this is the first that I show in the roleplay,

241
00:37:00,010 --> 00:37:05,595
and this one is the last, very simple,

242
00:37:08,379 --> 00:37:09,996
but perfect.

243
00:37:14,183 --> 00:37:19,700
These were bought on Etsy and you'll find the link of the shop down below.

244
00:37:25,265 --> 00:37:28,586
This could be a villain's wand,

245
00:37:31,984 --> 00:37:33,835
quite dark.

246
00:37:37,686 --> 00:37:41,104
Let's put them back in the box.

247
00:37:51,975 --> 00:37:55,024
I made this box myself,

248
00:37:55,441 --> 00:37:59,344
with cardboard and decorative paper.

249
00:38:00,561 --> 00:38:03,745
And I was quite happy with it.

250
00:38:35,154 --> 00:38:41,807
And finally I wanted to show you this gorgeous wooden notebook.

251
00:38:45,116 --> 00:38:51,561
I came across this item when I went to an artisan market.

252
00:38:52,645 --> 00:38:56,961
And I must say I had never seen this kind of books before.

253
00:38:58,495 --> 00:39:01,164
This is such a beautiful concept.

254
00:39:02,125 --> 00:39:05,460
This one is made of oak wood,

255
00:39:07,077 --> 00:39:12,959
with an amethyst on the cover.

256
00:39:20,009 --> 00:39:25,329
And a thick white paper inside.

257
00:39:29,913 --> 00:39:35,665
I use it to write some ideas for my videos,

258
00:39:36,098 --> 00:39:41,285
and I just love it.

259
00:39:43,736 --> 00:39:47,436
Again you'll find the link to the shop in the description,

260
00:39:47,889 --> 00:39:51,722
but I'm not sure they ship worldwide.

261
00:40:17,112 --> 00:40:19,086
And that's it.

262
00:40:19,086 --> 00:40:23,506
I know I said nothing about the costumes this time

263
00:40:23,694 --> 00:40:27,444
and I might make a dedicated video later about them

264
00:40:27,678 --> 00:40:31,312
because there are more coming.

265
00:40:31,830 --> 00:40:34,348
And I hope you enjoyed this video.

266
00:40:34,598 --> 00:40:37,315
If you have questions about some props

267
00:40:37,551 --> 00:40:41,549
let me know in the comments and I'll try to answer.

268
00:40:41,999 --> 00:40:47,150
As always, I wish you a very good night.
