Bunnyfoofoo
A member of the Edmonton community since 2016 Bunnyfoofoo is a solo poly masochist sub. Though her vision of her personal kink hasn’t changed much in that time her level of self awareness has, something that has come with the people and learning opportunities bdsm has provided. Early on one of her priorities became helping new people find their way into the community in a safe and positive way. To that end the SAME munch was born in late 2017 and with a hiatus for covid it has been reborn as the SAME hall social, it’s main mission as always is to encourage people to join in real life bdsm with real people, and not just for the sexy stuff. When not engaged in the real life community she can often be found among Fet’s advice and support groups encouraging, informing, and hopefully helping.

Her path is one of mindful service with a lot ‘woo’ thrown in for good measure. Since the passing of her late owner in 2014, she has been learning how to navigate the kink world on her own again. Today, she weaves in and out of the kink world as time and energy permits.
Cheryl is proud to have served as the Arizona slave of 2014, past President of Arizona girls of Leather (AZgoL), and a past Board Member of Phoenix Area Lifestyle Society (PALS).

Greycie
Greycie is a bisexual, polyamorous, switchy kinkster that loves this little wonderful world of kink! First introduced to it when she was 20 and living in Calgary, Greycie took a rather long hiatus from community and lifestyle to pursue career goals, only to make a return in 2018 in Edmonton. While sensation play makes her heart swoon and breath play physically takes her breath away; she enjoys sharing her emergency medical knowledge. Her knowledge ranges from what to ask potential partners, to accessing health care and to making informed decisions for safer play. Anything that she can share to make a kinky experience safer by expanding a person’s knowledge and making the health care system not so scary is her goal in life. Well that and having the most fun ever!

Jess
Jess identifies as a sassy femme bootblack. She’s been actively sharing her passion and knowledge for bootblacking and Leather care for a handful of years, and her enjoyment of doing so has not waned, but continues to grow.
Any day she is able to spend caring, wearing, or worshipping Leather is a good day, and she values the trust placed in her by the owners of each piece she gets to tend to. She is proud to hold the Western Canada Bootblack title for 2020.
When not caring for Leather, Jess gets up to a variety of shenanigans; from helping run a local dungeon, and teaching workshops, to playing with sharp, pointy things and blood. Jess has been called the weirdest in the dungeon, and to her, it is just another compliment.
Some days she looks back and thinks “how the fuck did I get here” and wouldn’t have it any other way.

JoshInTheBox & Bri Burning

Both Josh and Bri started their individual leather and kink journeys in 2010 in the San Francisco Bay Area where they have volunteered, hosted events, and presented a spectrum of classes. Bri serves Josh and is owned by Them in all aspects but one of their dynamics where Bri is Josh’s Ma’am. These two love getting nerdy about dynamics, neurodivergent perspectives, and gender and sexuality spectrums. From titleholding and handling to behind the scenes, you’ll find them connecting and seeking to grow within many parts of our community.
Bri Burning (she/her and they/them) is your International Person of Leather 2020-2022 and Northwest Person of Leather 2019!

Maygen classifies a majority of her play as ‘risk aware’, with her focuses on needles, sharps and blood, with some rough body play and wrestling thrown in here and there. Not sure what ‘risk aware’ means? Feel free to approach Maygen and have a conversation; she won’t bite (unless negotiated).

Morgan is the co-curator of BlackChat; an intergenerational project of gatherings, community field trips, and podcasting. BlackChat is dedicated to the healing of Black people across turtle island. Morgan’s work is in service to the communities who hold her.

As a coach, she works predominantly with people under 30, new to kink, exploring their desires and sexuality, and/or working through some intimacy stuff. She is an artist, healer, and abolitionist who challenges the status quo. Intergenerational collaboration and imagining futures are key values in Morgan’s work.

Ropegasm
Based in Edmonton, AB, ropegasm is a group of femme folk who teach rope bondage; we design our classes around modifications necessary so that all bodies can be in rope; regardless of shape, size, flexibility, expereince, and background – we believe that rope should be accessible to everyone.
Bringing our take on sassy and safe-ish mayhem to Wicked, will be ♥Leah♥, NaughtySocks, TetherDiva, and Rory.
♥Leah♥ identifies as a leather female bisexual switch. She has been an active member of the local kink community since 2009. Leah strongly believes in community, and providing for her community. Over the years, she has helped with a number of groups and events. Currently, her plate is filled by: YEGas, ropegasm, EDMT, and Ritual Revolution. As both a top and a bottom, Leah feels that quality education is very important, and has taught workshops for a variety of local groups and more recently at NARIX KC. She has helped facilitate classes in Alaska and Victoria. Leah feels everyone should have opportunity and access to good practices and safer techniques. She is always open to answering questions and offering advice.
NaughtySocks is a critical thinking feminist who likes to ask ‘why’ more then is probably necessary. She’s generally quiet unless she’s laughing or screaming due to painful delights. Socks is passionate about education, adventures, and the importance of curling up with a book, a cat, and a mug of tea. Bottom self-advocacy and safety are essential, as her sense of self-preservation is *occasionally* lacking. She is coming around to this switching thing, and deeply enjoys self-suspensions when there isn’t anyone around who wants to share in some violence. Currently, NaughtySocks keeps herself busy with ropegasm, a monthly bondage class that also holds sushi nights and an annual evening of performance. Having presented in a number of cities, at cons suchs as Northern Exposure, NARIX, and BeachBind, as well as locally, she is happy to nerd out at Wicked in the West. Socks is dedicated to becoming an instigator of joy, in whatever form that takes.
Rory‘s first rope experience was in a workshop in 2016. While new-ish to the world of kink, she is enjoying exploring and learning new things. Most recently, she’s learned how creative, fun, and beautiful rope can be. When she’s not tying women for her own sadistic pleasure, she can be found gaming, painting, or reading.
TetherDiva is an enthusiastic, queer switch who’s been involved in the local community since 2017. Bondage is the core of their kink. To tether is to connect, move creative energy, support, play, and of course torture and torment!! She’ll use any medium available to bind and tether, but always returns to rope for its aesthetic and ritual/creative potential. ropegasm has been home to their learning process and inspiration, and she’s thrilled to take a step towards supporting others with their learning curve.

Sir Tee & little kitsune
Sir Tee and little kitsune live in a long term 24/7 Master/slave, Consensual Non-Consent dynamic. They began their journey in Power Exchange, over 27 years ago, during a time when there was little or no Power Exchange support or education available. They developed their dynamic independently and privately for many years before joining the local communities. This experience has given Sir Tee an appreciation for the support a vibrant healthy, and ethical Power Exchange community can provide.
Sir Tee and little kitsune are the founders and directors of the MAsT: Greater Vancouver chapter in Vancouver B.C., Canada. Together they facilitate regular monthly MAsT discussion nights, monthly Hellfire and aspire discussions (to provide the respective sides of the slash an opportunity to discuss and share with their peers), and host regular munches/socials for the Power Exchange community.
Sir Tee and little kitsune are also the producers of the 2020 and 2021 Pacific Rim Power Exchange (virtual) Conference, have hosted a number of weekend intensives and community fundraising events, and have presented at various events and conferences across Western Canada and through the US both virtually and in person (KinkFest 2022). Sir Tee and little kitsune have long been supporters of the Western Canada Power Exchange (WCPE) title competition; in 2019 Sir Tee was honoured to serve as Head Judge and in 2018 little kitsune served as judge.
