"Yes, honey, and I have the next best thing to going to space itself: Seaside. Imagine, us sitting under the moonlight and enjoying our meal while we look at the stars, the beach sand on our feet while the water occasionally tickles them." Ezra paints a verbal picture, attempting to sell her the idea.Purple Eagle's character list

Reinholdt frowns. "While that may have been the case in the past, that is not the case now. Vigil and HALO are decidedly different. Vigil is very much still acting the police force and jumps headlong into danger. We're more about researching positive improvements to people's every day lives. Sure sometimes, we'll be called on to find out about some demon's historical weakness or something along that nature, but it's a very different proposition. Like... Men of Letters vs. Hunters sort of thing." Rein, it'll be a miracle if she understands that reference.

"Certainly. Anyone's welcome to visit at anytime. If you mean right now, I would be happy to escort you and show you around. Otherwise just drop on by when you have a free moment. I believe we just hired a new greeter as well," Reinholdt says with a smile, stretching a little and preparing to make his exit.

"Sounds good to me. Take care of yourself Dorota," Reinholdt replies before seeing himself out.

"Well, that's why we're in Mallside, Deadra dearest. I have the meal ready, now we need candles and picnic supplies. Oh, look, speak of the devil." Ezra mentions, pointing just off the side to a stall being held open at this time of night. The front of it says "Pissup's Picnic Supplies"
"Wanna handle this one, dearest?" He asks, wanting to see if she's willing to engage with a potential mortal in the name of shopping.Purple Eagle's character list

Re: [Floofadoodle Spa]
And massages they receive!
She leads them into the next room, where there are some comfortable places to lie, perfectly sized that she indicates the two towards.
Once set, she gets to work working the kinks and knots out of their shoulders, backs, and legs.
She is quite good at her job, as well.Spoiler: Quotes

Perfectly-sized? Given their difference in sizes that's pretty exceptional!
Honeysuckle lies down and tries to relax.
Which turns out to be very easy, with the masseuse being so good at her job.
"Do you do everything here?" she asks, impressed.

Re: [Couple's Walk]
Caesar squeezes her hand. "I know you can, my love. I'll be right there with you."
When they enter, there's a tall elven man with a jolly aura about him who addresses the two vampires. He appears to be half-vampire given his red eyes and the little fangs in his teeth. He's bald with tan skin and is dressed in poofy baggy clothing, and if the patterns on his clothing were different he might seem more like a clown than a store owner. "Welcome, welcome! And vampires, too! My mother was bitten while pregnant for me." When he spots Deadra, though, any apprehensiveness he shows is due to her size, though that quickly fades. "What shall I get you?"Last edited by Purple Eagle; 2019-04-10 at 12:21 PM.

Re: Mallside 10
Pontius' Custom Constructs
A Tiefling girl pauses in front of the store, looking up at the two golems above the entrance. She was here in the mall to see if she could buy some tools, but it couldn't hurt to just look around. She opens the door and steps inside. She has dark red skin and long, black hair pulled into a ponytail. She's wearing a t-shirt, a pair of jean shorts, and sturdy leather work boots. Her horns are like a gazelle's, and she has a barbed, devilish tail. She looks around the shop in wonder and curiosity. This is the shop of a professional artificer, the sort of thing she never was able to see at home. She can't help but stare at the constructs in awe.Awesome avatar (Kothar, paladin of Tlacua) by Linkele!

Re: Mallside 10
Pontius' Custom Constructs
This is more a display room than a standard shop; as the name suggests, they make golems to order, as well as the rather standardised statues displayed within. They range from a scarecrow in old clothes, with an old hessian sack with holes cut in it to serve as a head, to a marble statue with a carved toga and aristocratic features. There's also bronze, granite, limestone, wood, silver, steel, and jade, with the statues being a mix of styles. They all turn to watch Sekhmet as she walks through, to make it clear that these are all functional examples of the golemcrafter's art.
After a moment, somebody walks up to Sekhmet. They're human, not much older than she is, and male. He's got dark skin and thick curly hair, dark green eyes and a physique which isn't quite athletic, more the body of one who does a lot of hard work for a living. He's wearing a pair of black cargo trousers and a dark grey t-shirt. "Hello miss. Can I help you at all?" He's very professional.Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

Re: Mallside 10

"Oh!" Sekhmet exclaims, startled, "I'm, uh, just looking, just looking." She continues to admire the golems. "Are they, uh, yours?" She should know better; the amount of work it must take to make one of these things must be staggering, and the man doesn't look old enough to be a master craftsman.Awesome avatar (Kothar, paladin of Tlacua) by Linkele!

Re: Mallside 10

"Um, I worked on that one, some of the carving on it, but no. I'm just an apprentice, really." He motions to a limestone statue with a feline head. Certainly explains why he's so fit, though. "I can't yet animate anything larger than a garden gnome, and that wipes me out. Pontius is the master here, except he doesn't work well with people. That's why I'm here instead. The apprentices all take it in turn. Pontius is in the factory, overseeing the others and teaching the animation techniques he uses."Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

"You're an apprentice then? What's it like?" This is very interesting to Sekhmet. She couldn't get an apprenticeship back home, and not for a lack of trying.Awesome avatar (Kothar, paladin of Tlacua) by Linkele!

Re: Mallside 10

"It's hard work, but worthwhile. I've learnt a lot already, and I'm not halfway through it yet. And not just magic, either. All the apprentices learn one or two craft skills, to actually make the golems. I'm learning stonework mainly, hence why I was carving details on her." Another nod to the cat-headed limestone figure. "I've also learnt origami, which is far fiddlier and easier to practice at home. There's also metallurgists, potters, weavers, sewers, carpenters and all sorts, really. Why, are you interested?" He's really enthused about it, too, a sign of somebody who enjoys what they're learning about.Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

"I, uh, yes!" Sekhmet replies. Her face lights up for a second, then falls again. "But I don't have much experience."Awesome avatar (Kothar, paladin of Tlacua) by Linkele!

Re: Mallside 10
Pontius' Custom Constructs
"Neither did I, when I started. That's why it's an apprenticeship. Do you have any experience in any kind of craft or magic? Any groundings in either would be useful, but... When I started, I'd never held a chisel before. I did know some origami, though." He knew how to make swans and some other things, not little origami figures like he makes now.
Sekhmet at least has experience in some magic, judging by the teleportation experiment that found her in the Nexus.Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

Re: Mallside 10
"I know a bit, uh, of metalworking, and I can do some magic." Sekhmet's not great at either, and her magic is mostly limited to disguise. Her attempts at working with other sorts of magic are what landed her here in the first place. It wasn't even a large teleportation attempt, she was trying to transport a cup across a desk. If she had been more experienced, she might not have made whatever mistake it was that caused it to explode.

Re: Mallside 10
Pontius' Custom Constructs
"Well, that's good. Casting or forging? And what kind of magic?" Both are used, though for different things. And even disguise magic can be handy, if one wants a totally loyal bodyguard made of steel without letting on that it's made of steel. And the fact she knows some already does at least show she has magical aptitude; not everyone does, and magic's important in making constructs. Unless you build a robot, but that would upset Pontius. He doesn't understand those, and he's scared of them, too.Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!

Re: Mallside 10

"Forging. And uh, I can't do much. Mostly, uh, disguise and some minor enchantments." Sekhmet would demonstrate, but she's not very good at it without something to focus through, and her wand didn't make the trip with her.Awesome avatar (Kothar, paladin of Tlacua) by Linkele!

Re: Mallside 10
Pontius' Custom Constructs
"Forging's good. Enchanting objects or people?" In Dungeons & Dragons, 'enchantment' is social magic, which makes very little sense when magic weaponry is produced by 'enchanting' it. Enchanting objects is more useful for a golemcrafter, but might sell more if they enchant their customers. "Disguise magic? Like illusion? That'd be very handy. We don't have an illusionist right now, but we've got some books. Disguising bodyguards and so on."Terrowin Avatar by HappyTurtle. Much thanks!
