Mistress Kalyss Mercury

What is your location Country, state/province and city?

Brisbane, QLD, Australia. I also travel to Sydney on a regular basis.

Do you own slaves in your personal life? If so where did you meet and what duties do they fulfill?

I currently have three (3) slaves in my personal stables. All three started as clients, but through their deep level of devotion and after many tests and trials they have taken their position in my personal life. Some of their duties include: Laundry and minor clothing repairs, chauffeur, cleaning the dungeon after sessions, caring for my latex wardrobe, gardening, cleaning my house, updating my website and web profiles, massaging and pampering me as required, among many other tasks.

Do you have an area of expertise? If yes tell us a bit about it.

I'm experienced in a variety of fetish activities, but my main concern is for holistic domination. It works very much like life coaching. Submissive share information about themselves. Together we look at where their lives could improve, how could they become happier, healthier and more fulfilled. Then, through the course of monthly sessions, we use BDSM techniques to remove psychological programming that may be hindering their progress. This is a very serious style of domination, more commitment is required than simply getting one's rocks off at basic kinky session. But the rewards are immense. I've transformed extremely shy people into well-adjusted, socially engaged individuals. Some of my clients managed to quit smoking (something they never managed alone), lose up to 30 kilos (around 60 lbs), and lose phobias. Not all my clients take up this challenge, as it's obviously not for everyone. But it is the activity that makes me most fulfilled as a Dominatrix.

What should a potential submissive client know about you before trying to schedule a session?

I am a lifestyle domme as well as a pro-domme. So I won't do an activity if I'm not into it. I ask my clients for their fetish interests and limits, but I use this list as a guideline. I don't follow scripts. If someone wants to submit to me, they must be prepared to be challenged. At the same time, I am an expert with beginners specially because they usually don't yet know what they like. Therefore, I can guide them through a variety of activities, in a gradual pace so as not to scare them from kink.

Do you have your own Dungeon or do you rent? What kind of equipment and toys can be found there?

I operate from my own private dungeon. It contains a St. Andrews cross (built by one of my slaves), a bondage bed, a cage, an inversion table, a medical wheelchair, suspension and bondage points, and a cross-dressing boudoir. I've got a huge collection of toys, from light tickling floggers, to heavy singletail whips, canes, crops, paddles, straps, TENS machines and other harsher electrical toys, dildos of every shape and size, vampire gloves, cupping sets, gas mask and hoods, GS aids, and easily hundreds of meters of rope.

What are your favorite types of sessions?

I don't categorize sessions in "types". Every client is unique. It gives me most pleasure when a submissive will surrender and get deep into subspace. I like subs that react, who moan and groan and allow themselves to really live that experience. I find that, many pets are shy in the first few sessions, afraid that I might punish them if they speak up or cry out. But as they get more comfortable with me, they surrender better and then it's a lot more fun for both of us.

How did you become a professional Dominatrix and what were your first experiences like as a ProDomme?

I was trained in a domination house in Sydney. I literally answered their want ad on the adult section of the paper. I was already interested in kink back then so it was quite an easy transition into the pro-scene. At the start, I took any session as I was hungry for experience. After a few months I started finding which activities I liked best and some (like needles and scat) were removed from my repertoire because I didn't enjoy them. I've written a more detailed story, which can be found on my website: MyMistress.net/bio

How long have you been involved with BDSM as a professional Dominatrix?

I've been working as a pro-domme since 1999, so 12 years. I was already in the kink scene for four years before that. As soon as I became an adult, I realised vanilla wasn't for me.

What is your natural demeanor (e.g. strict, humorous,friendly)?

I'm quite friendly and casual, which sometimes confuses submissives. "She's always smiling and looks like a sweet girl... How could she hurt me?". They're in for quite a surprise as I can be quite vicious (smiling or not!). ;-)

What is your most memorable session?

I've had too many fabulous sessions to single out one only. At times, when a sub is having personal issues, they may surrender deeper and get such release! I love seeing strong, tough men end up in a crying and smiling puddle of submission by my feet. I understand how difficult it is for some men to express such surrender, and it gives me pride and joy to be able to manifest this experience for them.
