Silverlight C# Game or Graphics Engine?

Are there any good C# Silverlight Graphics or Game engines currently? I am planning to create a game with it (either 2d or 3d) but are there already usable frameworks or should I expect to have to build everything myself?

Probably the most enhanced 3D engine for Silverlight so far is Silvermotion

It has some quite impressive demos and looks more like a high tech DirectX engine than the usual stuff and runs quite well.

If you're targeting both XNA and Silverlight for 2D games you can use the SilverSprite library at http://silversprite.codeplex.com and it may also be useful if you're used to a traditional game loop and draw calls.
