The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

It was not the maids who did it; in fact, it was their job to keep this place clean. They would much rather scream at the graffiti vandals than to become them. Nevertheless, Jake had no way of knowing this...

"hmmm....nothing i can do but....i could get the maids up here to clean it up, that way i don't have to look at this piec of lizard 'art' ". Jake walked back outside of his room, down the hallway and downstairs. Jake walked over to the counter "excuse me, may i ask for my room to be cleaned?"

"What? Did graffiti vandals strike again?" the Dracon at the counter asked. He had guessed it in one try... this was a common occurrence. "I'll send some of the cleaning females up in a moment, human."

Ophion went downstairs to check on his stock of magical goods. After seeing his wife at the counter (and giving her a hug), he went on to see what he had, what he was selling, and what he needed to order more of.

"Let's see..." he thought to himself. "I need more powdered fish bone... more nightshad juice... more fish oil... hmm... that's two fish items I need more of... some mandrake root... not sure who's buying that. Ah, I need more healing potions... those are always in demand..."

"Ophion! Do we have any scrolls of the "haste" spell?" Aurescia asked him from the next room. "There's someone who wants to buy one!"

"We sold our last one yesterday! Offer him a haste potion instead!" he replied...

Yes, it was another average day... or so he thought...

(OOC: Thanks!)

Kosjurec thought about his day... what a day it had been. Magic powers coming into their own... how was he gonna tell his parents about this? How was he gonna handle this? What did this mean for him?

(OOC: Im back! :) )

Shal'thzar had wandered through the desert for quite some time, but eventually she returned to the city of Minbenthac..

Shal'thzar had collected various objects from various creatures she had encountered, and so returned back to the city to find someone that was willing to buy the objects she had collected. Unless there were none that are willing to buy said items, she would then seek out someone that would hire her for a job.


(OOC: Probably just a bunch of useless junk :p Unless this is something like Morrowind/Oblivion with the whole Collect-Items-From-Creatures-And-Sell-Them-For-A-Bit-Of-Gold thing from those games, then yay :p )

(OOC: The city is named Minbenthac, sometimes misspelled as "Minthebec." Glad to have you back)

Shal'thzar would have little problem finding someone to buy her goods at the city's markets and bazaars; the former were characterized by order and permanent stalls made of wood, whereas the latter were a chaotic mess of merchants pushing carts, carrying their goods, setting their wares down on a rug in the middle of the streets and shouting at the top of the lungs. Both of them had their good and bad sides. Markets had better goods at higher prices, bazaars had worse goods at cheaper prices...

Haste potion? Halo thought.  "Actually, it was illuminating stones I'm looking to buy from you..."

"Sorry dear, I was asking my husband about a previous customer's order. I told him we were out of one item, so I need to sell him an alternative one... now, how many illuminating stones do you need?" Aurescia asked.

"At least 6," Halo replied.  "Would these stones have any unique effects like sunlight, or are they just like candles?"

"We have stronger stones for effects like sunlight... they cost a bit more, though. Here's six stones for you? Will that be anything else?" Aurescia told Halo, handing him the stones.

"That will be it, thank you," Halo replied, and pulled out his money bag.  "So how much will that be?"

"1 gold per stone... that's six gold coins in total!" Aurescia said to Halo.

Meanwhile...

Ophion was still sorting through his goods... he didn't know who would buy some of them... "acid puffs?" What the heck WERE those?

Halo puled and counted 6 cold coins, and placed them on the counter.  "Six gold coins," he replied.

We also have a new shipment of Passum, which is a kind of raisin wine..." the bartender told Jake.
