1. Please introduce yourself.
I go by the name Milliscent, and consider myself lucky that so many refer to me as Mistress. I’m a professional dominatrix living outside of Seattle in the heart of the Cascade Mountains. I’ve been kinky since childhood, serious about bdsm since my late teens, and playing professionally for quite some time now counting my decision to begin playing professionally as one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.

I think it appropriate in this introduction to give a bit of detail about my location for it lends I think something wonderful to each of my bdsm encounters. One of the marvelous things about Seattle is that it is surrounded by natural beauty. Mountains within a very short distance to the east, sound and sea a short distance to the west. I am blessed to have been able to build a bdsm studio within those mountains, close to Seattle and it’s surrounding population centers, yet seemingly a world away.

When one comes to see me he will find himself out of the city, away from people, surrounded by truly amazing natural beauty. Towering peaks so close it seems that they can almost be touched, evergreen trees as far as the eye can see, and the raging river only steps away. When he arrives at this special place the cares and pressures of the day are already lost behind him, he comes to me refreshed by nature, ready to suffer for me and to serve me.

2. What is the cruelest thing you have ever done to someone?
I find this an interesting question. Those who come to me, submit to me, crave my cruelty, they crave my selfishness, they crave my command. I hurt them, I humiliate them, I use them for my own amusement.

Doing so is deeply joyous to me and deeply joyous to them. It fulfills deep needs within me, and fulfills deep needs within them.

Therefore can my harsh treatment of a submissive be considered cruel? Is it not a kindness to make him suffer for me? Is my cruelty not truly my kindness?

3. How do you know when you have truly broken someone?
I do not seek to break a submissive. Rather I seek to mould submissives. I seek to create using their bodies, their minds, their souls as my canvas.

I seek to create a submissive who can take every bit of the pain I choose to give him. I seek to create a submissive who can find deep fulfillment as I humiliate him unmercifully. I seek to create a submissive who begins to view me as something quite apart from himself, something which he has no choice but to obey.

4. What is your favorite way to humiliate someone?
Unmercifully! I want him to prove his extreme devotion to me through submission to extreme suffering.

Whatever methods I might choose to enjoy are wholly dependent upon whom I am with at the time. Some submissives are more fun to humiliate in particular ways than others; submissives all react to particular humiliations differently. My favorite method of humiliating a submissive is dependent upon that submissive, his reaction to the particular activity and how much he is indeed humiliated by that specific activity.

5. What are some telltale signs of weakness?
I don’t necessarily equate submission with weakness, but indeed signs of submission are wonderful and are prevalent. I am blessed to receive each and every day emails filled with thoughts of submission, pleas to serve me, begging to suffer for me.

It is my abiding joy to be able to accept these pleas for dominance, to provide the control that so many need within their lives. Together me and my submissive, Dominatrix and slave are able to create something truly magnificent.

6. How do you go about exploiting someone's weaknesses?
A submissives desires are his or her weaknesses. One can take those desires and use them to mould the submissive into exactly what one wants. His desire for spankings can be used as a tool to get him able to accept severe canings. His desire to serve can be used as a tool to create perfect obedience within him. His desire to submit can be used as a tool to create a truly worshipful attitude within him.

Many men and some women also have fetish desires, weaknesses towards objects. These fetishes, indeed these items can be used as tools to drive the submissive into depths of submission and suffering that he previously never dreamed could exist within his life.

7. What is your favorite thing about being truly dominant?
I have the opportunity to be well respected by the people I care about because of my inborn cruelty, my delightful selfishness, and my extremely sadistic nature. I get to laugh as I make another cry and I am thanked for doing so.

I have the opportunity to find joy in fulfilling the deepest needs I have, and to improve the lives of others by fulfilling their own needs. Needs for suffering and pain, physical, mental, and emotional.

I have the opportunity to craft my own life, my own relationships exactly as I desire. To create what I desire out of the people who surround me, to have my desire as the paramount within their minds.

8. What are some of the many things that make you better than those around you?
I am certainly different than those around me, and I celebrate the diversity within people. Better? Likely not. Different though.

I believe that my dominance, and just as importantly, my extreme exploration of that dominance is the thing most different about me. Most of the people around me are of course submissive to me, so that makes us radically different in some ways. It also though brings us closer in ways for I do believe that the need to inflict pain is simply the opposite side of the coin from the need to experience pain.

I don’t switch, though a great many dominants do. I suppose that makes me different.

BDSM in it’s myriad of forms is the most important thing in my life, but it is far from the only thing in my life. My interests are extremely wide ranging, and I believe that makes me a bit different as well.

Through tremendous effort I have been able to create what I believe to be the finest bdsm studio in the world. Certainly I’ve never seen anything else that could compare. Not only the finest, but I think absolutely unique. That certainly makes me different from others. Different from those who play in lesser spaces, different from others who are unable to posses a dedicated space.

9. Scientists have found that the major sub-interests of Dominance/Sadism are:
Administrations of Pain, Bondage,Humiliation, and Dominance. Which of these are you most drawn to?
I love all of them, and would have a very difficult time picking a favorite. Again this depends upon whom I am with at the time, and how that particular submissive reacts to any specific activity.

It is I think also greatly dependent upon my mood at the time.

Perhaps one day I will most desire beating his ass until it bleeds. The next day I may have less interest in that instead desiring to tie him into extremely restrictive bondage and leaving him there to listen as I pleasure myself. Yet another day might see me wanting to take him to the mall where he can be deeply and publicly humiliated through his service to me. Control I think weaves through all of this, is always present within my activities with submissives, I do not want them to feel naked without my embracing cloak of control over their shoulders.

10. What do you find truly sexy?
Cries of pain, obvious denial of fundamental drives, physical worship, tears, suffering, embarrassment, and of course pleas for the same from those who are allowed into my special world.

Towering heels, black leather boots, latex, stockings, corsets.

Marks of brutality upon a submissives body.

Whips, clamps, rope, and chain.

Laughter from a dominant as the submissive suffers.

I find a great many things sexy, and as my life is filled with them I am able to find most of life itself to be quite sexy indeed!
