The gluttonous form of Grandfather Karlov moaned with a thick, phlegmatic cough. Oil and grease dribbled from his many chins as a thrull attendant sought to predict the patriarch's whims, trying both to catch the spillage from Karlov's mouth as well as attempting to still feed the man with whatever decadent Selesnyan ortolan the house chefs had devised. The poor abomination soon found it's necked snapped, however, when it failed to shove the bird into Karlov's foul mouthhole and the patriarch's ring-laden paw backhanded the creature a full yard away from the kitchen table.

"Can't make good help these days. At least not on a budget." Karlov grunted, sitting up from the remains of his meal and his servant, finally taking notice of you.

It had been more than half an hour watching the patriarch stuff himself without any concern for your presence, even though he had been the one to summon you, but you knew your place. No matter how far you had climbed in the ranks of the Church, only the Obzedat itself was higher than Grandfather Karlov. Waiting patiently was a given.

"Well, let's not quibble. What was your name again? And do you have a pair of tits or testicles underneath all those robes? My eyes can't see so well and I haven't bought a new set from the Simic in ages." Karlov hacked, looking over at you with bored, beady black eyes as he waited for your reply...

(Jesus, I didn't really think this was gonna get going.)

Okay, people are giving names, but Karlov also asked for Gender. Since this isn't going to be too impactful of a decision, I won't be putting in any rules for this.

Basically, the the next post that gives a gender and links back or adds a name to it will be the identity going forward.

This >>5041782 is a female name so let's go with it. Why weren't you expecting players though?

>>5041807

"Szjytvi Zlyker? Your parents must have been from our of district." Grandfather Karlov rumbled, wobbling in what you assume to be a laugh. Before you can offer any insight, Karlov thumps an open palm over the grand table and you hear a rustling underneath the tablecloth. You wonder what kind of thrull attendant could be there, musing that it might be a shoeshining servant or perhaps a tailor. You weren't expecting a resplendent Orzhov angel to shuffle from her knees to her feet.

"Hah! Not a cobbled flesh golem like you were expecting, isn't she?" Karlov barked, and it is an understatement. The creature is beautiful. Given the shape of a divinely gorgeous woman and coupled with the flesh baring attire of an Orzhov slave, the angel is a sight to behold. Even though her head is shaven, it does little to detract from the beauty of her bounteous breasts peeking through a keyhole dress window, her wide hips, flawless skin, and gentle features. Her wings are folded demurely as her hands are at her front, lending even more to the picture of perfect obedience. The only thing marring the angel's visage is the blank, empty night sky that swirled like ink where here irises should have been. And of course the dripping, white sludge running down her lips and making her lipstain run down her chin. Quite different from a lowly thrull.

"Stare at her all you want. It's free." Karlov says, and you ready a polite laugh at what you think is a joke before the patriarch thunders and you see anger flash in his eyes. "WHICH IS EXACTLY OUR PROBLEM!" he roars, and you take a step back in surprise. Not waiting for you to reply, as seems to be the pattern, Karlov waves a finger at the angel. She cups her hands and bows her head, chanting and you feel magic fill the room as an illusory map of the Tenth District appears in front of you. The white liquid continues to dribble down into the angel's cleavage as she chants.

"The Karlov Syndicate's prostitution ring is in shambles. Shambles, I say! Karlov blusters, showing a shrinking empire as the map shoes dates and marked areas of the Karlov's flesh peddling services dwindle. "Ever since my... niece... began butting heads with those Azorius watchdogs, brothel after brothel has been taken out."

"I told her to keep her head down. I told her that it was fine to just represent our private interests. But the fool girl DOES NOT LISTEN! She grows our legitimate cathedrals, but with each victory she has against the lawmages in the light of day, the Azorious take out their frustration in our businesses of the night!" Karlov adds, and you recall the news papers noting the numerous raids on Karlov sex dens that had seen an uptick.

"Well... we can't have that. Not when it was so lucrative. Those First Precinct snobs might have applauded it in public, but they are nipping at my heels for when our new locations will be open. That's where you come in, boy."... (cont)

>>5041830
Karlov leans back and you see his greasy hand go behind the angel’s tunic. The creature gives a small moan, and you see her chanting change, highlighting different areas of the city in her map instead away from the traditional Orzhov brothels.

“You’re hungry for a chance. Both for money and for power. And if you are an Orzhov in good Karlov standing…” the patriarch chuckles, making no effort to hide his ministrations of the angel’s ass as he speaks. “… you’ll be wanting other things as well. So here is your chance. No more collections in the slums for you. I’m giving you and the others of your cohort free reign on this.” Karlov snaps his fingers in his unoccupied hand and the map zooms in as he speaks.

“Here’s the first of your choices. Precinct Two. A sensible enough area. Commoners abound, so many of them looking to escape their dreary, everyday troubles. The perfect place for an Orzhov Brothel. Which is why there are a few there already. If you want to set up here, you’ll be competing with the other houses, and Azorius are never far... But that just proves that the zinnos are good there.” Karlov notes, before waving dismissively for the angel to move to the next area.

“Precinct Four. Soldiers and ruffians this close to the barbarian territory. You’ll only really find business in the Bulwark, but what a business it would be! All that hot blood… it needs to be quenched somehow. I see profits here, boy… but is your hand strong enough for it?” Karlov makes a show of slamming his ringed fingers on the supple flesh of the angel’s posterior, making her switch to the next area.

“Now, Precinct Six. All the way in our warehouses and Tin Street. This is where the law is furthest from, and this is where people know where to look for sensual pleasures. But this is where you’ll find the greatest competition. The Rakdos operate here. While you’ll always be able to call upon the Orzhov in the Sixth Precinct and there’s always help for you in our many stores there, it is the hardest to make a presence in. Given that, I would not be opposed to assisting you a bit more in this area than the others by giving you a… special… starting package.” Karlov nodded, at last letting go of the angel’s flesh and sitting back up.

“There you have it make your choice. Remember, the other territory that you do not choose will fall into the hands of other Orzhov entrepreneurs. Perhaps they’ll aid you or hinder you, but a little friendly competition is always welcome in our church.” Karlov drawls, and you still can’t make out if he is joking or not.
“Well? What will it be? Unless you don’t like the options and would rather try your hand with those naturalist flower children or the mutant scholars in their haunts of the city?” Karlov demands, and your mind calculates given that it is obvious he wants your answer right at that moment. (cont.)

Choose one of the Areas for your starting location.

>Precinct Two - Established with many Orzhov patrons that are eager to move here from the old business location of the First Precinct, but also with the most competition from other Orzhov families as well as being close to the Azorius government's seat of power

>Precinct Four - Straddling the battlegrounds of the unincorporated territories. More than a few lusty Boros soldiers pass through here as well as any number of the more wild and uninhibited members of guild society. There is little Rakdos or Orzhov competition here and less meddling from the Azorius, but you're quite on your own and will need to be a bit independent if trouble arises.

>Precinct Six - The traditional pleasure center or Ravnica. Tin Street ends here, and so does all its gold. You will find the greatest Rakdos presence here, so you will really need to stand out. Still, Grandfather Karlov promises a special boon if you choose to begin here.

>Somewhere else - Maybe you're a maverick and decide to do one of the other precincts that are unexpected and gamble a bit.

Gonna just count up the votes for this one. If anybody wants to do "Somewhere else" the first suggestion counts as a vote and other links back to it will serve as supporting votes.

I'll tally it up at noon or maybe sooner when it looks like the voting is finished.

(Thanks for taking part in this!)

Precinct Four, keeps us our of competition with the rest of our church, and we can get swole with the Boros. Gotta keep the pimp hand strong.

The solution to this sin is to sell your neice to the Azorious mages as a brainwashed sex puppet so they can take out their frustrations against her in a healthy way.

I suspect that, if this was a viable option, he'd already be punishing his niece in a severe way rather than letting her have free rein even as she cause shim trouble and ignores his advice. Lets' not speak out of turn, eh?

“The savages, eh? Not at all tempted by the wharf district? That’s a shame. Well, I suppose I can keep my toys to myself for now then.” Karlov said and snapped his fingers. Immediately, the angel beside him dropped to her knees. The chair that the patriarch was seated on had arms, but he ignored them and put his palm on the angel’s head, pushing himself off in another needless show of lecherous power.

”Smart decision nonetheless. While I am curious as to how we would fare in direct competition with the Rakdos, we have always been the more genteel and luxurious of the options available to the hedonistic... ” Karlov stated, walking to a hallway behind the dining room. The angel timidly follows three steps behind. You do the same and appreciate the sway of her ass underneath the silk of her scant robes. “… not to mention we are more lucrative and long-term. Yes, buying a night with one of their Blood Witches is an experience of a lifetime, but mostly because it ends right after you finish. Deplorable.” Karlov says, and again you feel the need to laugh if this were any other member. But the patriarch’s moods are unreadable and he continues his tirade.

“And the Rakdos… well. They just don’t understand some of the finer things…” Karlov turns suddenly with a leering grin. With another snap of his chubby fingers, you hear and jubilant moan from the angel and again she is brought to her knees. The visible black tattoo on her asscheek glows gold and she squirms and pants on the marble floor in need. “… such as the exquisite pleasure of owning rather than renting.” Karlov barks madly, and this time you feel safe enough to follow suit. The hollow laughs echo through the grand halls as you walk and you feel a chill as you think the portraits jeer in agreement with the patriarch’s sentiments.

(cont)
>>
>>5042208
“Ah… here we are.” Karlov said, and leads you into a smaller room, one that looks to be a clerk’s office. On the table there are many sheets of paper, ones that you are familiar with. Debt slips. These ones are quite different, however. The identification portraits are much larger, painfully detailed and focusing on certain parts of female anatomy that you can only guess at how they were captured.

“I know it has been a fast day, but you seem to be quick on the uptake. Pick your stable. You have a thousand zinos worth of debt to play with, so choose well. You can round out the rest with any riffraff goblin or thrull you find along the way. I know some of the Gruul and Izzet appreciate that type of thing.” Karlov sighs, clapping his hands. The angel, still crawling on her hands and knees and blank eyes hazed over in pleasure, does not miss a beat and makes her body a bench for the patriarch, her magical form not showing an ounce of strain even as Karlov’s fat body buries itself in an avalanche onto her plush wings. Only now do you see the trail of glistening liquid that she has trailed from the moment that Karlov had triggered her pleasure magic in the hallway leading into the room.

Gulping, you head towards the table, hoping to finish this business quickly and maybe head home to relieve yourself of all this tension, but you hear a tut from Karlov.

“Before you head in, boy… I’ve seen you eying Lizveta all night. Go on. We can’t have one of our pimps be afraid of our merchandise…” Karlov chuckles, offering the glowing skin of Lizveta’s tattooed ass to you. There is a moment where you hesitate, wondering if this was some sort of trick. But the more that you stare at the Orzhov sigil stamped on her skin and the quivering sway she has as she is racked with pleasure, you cannot help yourself. You caress it lightly for a moment, then grope it as you would a Selesnyan tomato at market. And it is just as juicy. Karlov snickers, leaning back into his seat of divine feathers.

“Good. I wouldn’t have trusted you at all if you didn’t have some semblance of desire in you. You’ll need to share that with the clients.” He says, one hand resting again on Lizveta’s head. “Well then, go on. Pick your women. There is still more business to conduct…”

You have 1000 zinos to use. The girls bought will be in order of posts. Duplicate posts will be thrown away and girls bought cannot exceed 1000 zinos!

>[300 zinos] Elliseria, a Selesnyan elf – Her heart was too big for her wallet. This elf maiden is beautiful and radiant. She had taken a loan to develop an area in the Fourth Precinct, thinking the green mana rampant there would harbor growth. It did, for a few years, but then the Gruul came with it and crushed her garden as well as her credit rating. Judging by her picture, she would be an instant star. Looks 10/10, other attributes ???

>[200 zinos] Callya, an Izzet djinni – Flighty and carefree, this part-time power dynamo for the Izzet had played one coinflip too many in the Orzhov casinos, thinking them safer than the Rakdos. To that, she is correct. She still has her life, but little else. Looks 8/10, other attributes ???

>[150 zinos] Tolliko, a Simic hybrid – A human girl with dreams of stardom, she had taken a loan from the Orzhov to get surgery from the Simic in hopes of standing out from the crowd of other entertainers. Her lizard and jellyfish augmentations actually only accentuate her beauty. But no one told her that her voicebox would now have the hiss of a rootwalla, and she finds herself in the power of her creditors. Looks 9/10, other attributes ???

>[150 zinos] Dolluss, a Gruul minotaur – Just a Gruul drunk that did not realize the value of money when offered coin for a signature. While she is a beastly humanoid, for those that know the standards of beauty for Minotaurs, she is pleasure given form. Even as a human, you cannot ignore the taught sinew of her muscles and the impossible size of her tits and ass given how little fat there is for the rest of her body. Looks 8/10, other attributes ???

>[150 zinos] Magza, a Golgari gorgon – Seduced by a con-artist that promised her a life on the topside but left her saddled with debt. Her face and body fit for a future whore, of course, but the rest of her might mean she only has a select clientele. However, she may have other talents that will prove useful. Looks 7/10, other attributes ???

>[150 zinos] Telya-Dok, Azorius vedalken – a paralegal who thought to represent herself in a case that should have been quite simple. Her skills in bookwork did not translate to the courts, however, and through a spectacularly lopsided ruling she has been given over with legal fees to the Orzhov. Looks 8/10, attributes ???

>[100 zinos] Random human woman, quest-writer’s choice to make a character. Looks will always be 7+ with the additional last points determined by a roll of 1d4. If the sum is 11 she will have one unique trait as listed by chooser

>[ 500 zinos] Random goblin woman, quest writer’s choice. Looks determined by 1d10 when picking this option

Have fun with it, everyone. We’ll continue once we hit 1000 zinos or close to 1000. You have 1 choice per hour, just so we can hit the 1000 zino cap.

I don't suppose we can hire on muscle to protect our business? The best option would be to have courtesans who are just as dangerous as they are beautiful, but I'd also be down for a cohort of constructs that can't be bribed or lied to.

>>5042588
I have some ideas, but nothing concrete until we learn more about our merchandise.
Since the customers of Precinct Four is mostly rowdy men, I think that the first thing to address is the safety of our workers. If they're just stalking the streets then it'd be a bit expensive to have a bodyguard for everyone of them, so it'd be a better idea to partner with an inn or establish a brothel so muscle is always nearby.
Advertisement and promotion is just as important. We should spend some time spreading the word around bars and the streets about our beautiful girls. I think a lot of people would especially love to bone that elf. The gorgon is tricky, but I think if we spread a rumor or two in the right place, people who are interested in that will come.
Last is the treatment of the girls. They're whores. We can give them somewhere to sleep, something to eat, protection, and hell, maybe an allowance if they're doing that good. But they're still whores, so they need to do their jobs and do it right.
I definitely want to get on the Amazon, Vedalken, and Elf on our side since they seem like the most influential, peer pressure and a backhand now and again will do the rest.

>”Excellent choices… I knew you wouldn’t pass up the elf, and these others from the recommended column seem very… adaptable.” Karlov mumbles.
He leafs through the stack of debt contracts you’ve given him. At first glance, the torrid patriarch seems half asleep and listless. But there is no denying the evil glint in his eyes and the predatory way he licks his lips. He spends an uncomfortable amount of time with the portraits before giving you any attention again.

>”You’ve found excellent buried gold in those contract mines. Look at this one. A voluntary indenturing for this ‘Luvita’ girl. And you’ve even found a Rakdos spinner-gob as well? A bit too green for my tastes but there is no denying that she is beautiful. A goblin like that one will do well with those greenskins running all around the Bulwark. And don’t get me started on this Gruul mountain of flesh. Yes… yes…” Karlov mentions, and you can see the dribble from the side of his maw.

>”Mmm, yes. Everything seems to be in order. Down to the last zib as well. I like that.”
Karlov folds up the papers and pats the angel’s head. Her jaw opens and the patriarch deposits the contracts in her mouth as if he were giving a bone to a dog.

>”Now then, time for the mundane particulars. A successful business will need its employees. You’ll have to keep these girls and your customers in line. How you see to your manpower is up to you, but I’ve had one of my secretaries compile a dossier of those juuuuuuust underneath you. I’m eager to see how you will be splitting the responsibilities. Be aware of your budget and influence as well. I would say these would be worth a score of thrulls altogether, for your final staff. I know you’re an old hand with mind magic, that’s what made you such a good collector, but perhaps you’ll want to focus on other areas of administration for your flesh-house.”
Karlov hands you a much neater folder of profiles. With these being free citizens, the odd stains and wrinkles that dotted the debt contracts are nowhere to be seen.

(Cont)
>>
>>5042617
You have “20 thrulls worth” of influence to wield here. Being Orzhov, you know exactly what that amounts to. It is also implied that any unspent influence will actually manifest in actual thrull staff should you choose to leave a few points off.

>Sidritzi (Vampire Mistress: 7 thrulls) – Beautiful and seductive. Sidritzi is actually someone you’ve heard of just in the circles of other debt collectors. She is practiced in the mind arts as well as the normal charms of Ravnican vampires. The only reason why she hasn’t climbed higher in the Orzhov ranks is her own appetites for indulgence. Her upkeep will probably be something to keep an eye on if she is chosen. She will definitely be an advantage in keeping both the patrons and girls in line, either as a carrot or a stick.

>Brother Yuri (Enthusiastic Human Euthanist: 5 thrulls) – an Orzhov “monk” that still clings to the old beliefs. Strict and imposing, he treats his body as a temple and is an even hand at combat should he find some debtors in need of “discipline”. In all ways except for the mind arts, he should be Sidritzi’s equal, but without the blood tithe need.

>Bulgasar (Giant Enforcer: 6 thrulls) – A well disciplined thug. He may not be the brightest, but with him in your employ, there are very few customers that will be able to cause a physical altercation, even deep within the Bulwark.

>Ghula (Spirit: 3 thrulls) – A maidservant that is still indebted to the Orzhov. She will keep the brothel clean and tidy as well as do laundry and cook a tad better than an ordinary thrull. She keeps to herself, mostly, but may cause a fright to patrons that wander away from the bedrooms or the main parlor.

>Shinewhip (Skeleton: 3 thrulls) – An animated skeleton that will keep the girls and the customers in line. He is not dexterous enough for housekeeping work, but will provide good security if nothing else.

>Gutclaw (Viashino Outlier: 5 thrulls) – a lizardman who has tired of the savagery of Gruul life but detests the discipline of the Boros Legion. He is loyal to the Orzhov in that they recognize the value of his service as an intimidating presser, and ask for nothing aside from his services. He is knowledgeable when it comes to the ins and outs of the savage border precinct.

>Orzhov Enforcer (Generic Mook: 4 thrulls) – Just a soldier that is working for their daily wage. This option can be chosen multiple times.

>One More Whore (Goblin or Human: 4 thrulls) – Another roll for the generic human or goblin prostitute that Grandfather Karlov will approve. This can be chosen multiple times.

>Thrull (A thrull: 1 thrull) – The generic minion of the Orzhov. You can assign the thrull to either be staff or security and they will do their best in that role. They have the capacity for combat and toiling as a normal human that does not train in physical arts. This can be chosen multiple times.

Rules are the same as before when choosing the ho roster.

We need someone capable of administering spankings and discipline to our stable.

>Sidritzi (Vampire Mistress: 7 thrulls)
>Bulgasar (Giant Enforcer: 6 thrulls)
>Gutclaw (Viashino Outlier: 5 thrulls)
Can we not get any thrulls? I looked up what they looked like and if I saw that in a brothel my dick would go flaccid.

More muscle and has knowledge of the area if I'm reading the description right? Yes please

>Shinewhip (Skeleton: 3 thrulls) – An animated skeleton that will keep the girls and the customers in line. He is not dexterous enough for housekeeping work, but will provide good security if nothing else.
The bone puns will be a great levity and source of morale, in times when our shady dealings causes us and our whores plus other non-whore workers stress

GHOST BLOWJOB WOO WOO

That's what I got so far, dunno about anything else
>>5042621
>>5042632
>>5042633
Should we bother with misc Orzhov Enforcers? or Thrulls? Rolling dice got us good misc girls outside of the main-list named ones, so it might help us here. We have a total of uhhhh
>Big-hearted elf
>Lizard/Jelly girl
>Cool gorgon
>Paralegal lady
>Human that's willingly in this
>Human that's an amazon
>Shortstack gob slut
That's 7 people. I think we might need 7 people more or less as miscellaneous staff or non-whore workers helping us manage things.
>>
>>5042632
Can't our thrulls put on masks to avoid bothering others with their appearances? Its certainly something to consider, seeing as OP did say
>It is also implied that any unspent influence will actually manifest in actual thrull staff should you choose to leave a few points off.
>>
>>5042632
Only one choice per post per hour the same as the hos, friend. Cant do a whole staff like that. I’m gonna judge call this as a reroll and put all of these back on the table.

>>5042634
Letting this be a reroll as well.


Wish I was on my home comp…
>>
>>5042633
>>5042633
Just for the sake of everyone keeping track, it seems like Gutclaw is the only legal choice so far.

Ghost blowjob WILL happen to somebody, either us or to one of our workers. The memes must flow.

Actually- What the fuck is a presser? Is it like an enforcer? Or is it someone who makes sure we get our money?
>>
>Ruling time

Okay, another ruling.

Just so that we won’t get carefree picks on accident, if you want to pick someone for sure, type “LOCK IT IN, HOMIE” in your post.

Ghula and Gutclaw are in, there are 12 Thrull points remaining.

>>5042654
>Sidritzi (Vampire Mistress: 7 thrulls)
LOCK IT IN, HOME

>>5042661
Alright. Staff so far:

>Sidritzi, Vampire Mistress
>Ghula, Spirit Maid
>Gutclaw, Viashino Insider

You guys gave 5 thrull points left.
>>
>>5042620
>Orzhov Enforcer (Generic Mook: 4 thrulls)
LOCK IT IN, HOME
Do we have to roll for this guy?
>>
>>5042685
Nope, but you can’t pick him right now. You used up yours for the hour. Wait 15 mins or so and then you can get the mook if nobody else locks anything in.
>>
>>5042620
> Sidritzi
Aside the vamp femme fatale, I'd also say that the girl will need caretakers; a healer, a cook, a friend/attendant that makes sure they are being looked after.
>>
Hour embargo is up. If you guys wanted to suggest another thing, you can again.
>>
Can we afford a not ugly thrull?
>>
>>5042620
Editing my last vote now that I had a better chance to read the options;
> Sidritzi
> Ghula
> Bulgasar
> One More Whore
My idea is that Ghula can get up to some spoopy/kinky possession with a girl that's into that sort of thing, and of course certain clientele like that stuff.

Plus, it is actually a little wholesome that the Ghost Maid could potentially enjoy the pleasures of life again during her service to the MC.

Back on my home computer now. The next part of the story is all ready to go, but before that, let's have a proper recap.

Hoes:
>Elliseria, a Selesnyan elf – Looks 10/10, other attributes ???
>Tolliko, a Simic hybrid – Looks 9/10, other attributes ???
>Magza, a Golgari gorgon – Looks 7/10, other attributes ???
>Telya-Dok, Azorius vedalken – Looks 8/10, attributes ???
>Meliasa, an Orzhov human - Looks 10/10, attribute - a voluntary slave. Probably something wrong with her mentally, but she has the looks to back up her desires. Who are you to argue?
>Yanna, a Gruul human - Looks 10/10, attribute - The perfect body made for snu-snu. Like all Gruul, she's probably quite ignorant and will need the most training. Still, at least she can handle herself with the more grabby of clientele.
>Peaches, a Rakdos goblin - Looks 10/10, attributes ???

Staff:
>Sidritzi, Vampire Mistress - she can train your girls, she can fight almost any threat to the brothel, and in a pinch she can probably substitute herself for one of the whores if the need arises. She knows mind magic as well as vampire powers. She will be needing the most upkeep of your staff, the least of which is her need for blood and lusty nature.
>Ghula, Spectral Servant - a ghost maid that can take care of the brothel almost completely by herself.
>Gutclaw, Viashino Insider - both a good bouncer as well as someone that can provide valuable insight to Precinct Four.
>Valdul, Orzhov Enforcer - Not quite as skilled as a warrior as Gutclaw, but more than a match for any Boros Footsoldier or Gruul Savage.
>Habel, Lowly Thrull - a fresh thrull that has not been given a specialization yet. As strong as a sedentary human and about as useful.

Story and choices incoming!

“Ehh? Oh, yes, yes. Very good. Well done with this business.” Karlov does not even look up once you finish gathering the contracts of those you wish to become your staff and whores and inking your own name as their employer or owner. You can sense the impatience rolling off the patriarch as he takes the papers and begins signing them. Thankfully you sense magic in his scribbles as there would probably be no other way to discern who had authorized any of this with the hasty, almost checkmark lines that Karlov deigns to score on the pages.

“There we are. Now, you will be given a small pittance for your actual storefront. Given the relati…” Karlov begins, again the aura of boredom threatening to consume you, but he is interrupted by a melodic yet piercing voice.

“Uncle! I didn’t want to believe it when I heard from the attendants, but are you really trying to start up your ludicrous brothel side hustles again?!”

This is the first time you have been graced with the presence of the singular Teysa Karlov. You’ve seen her from a distance before, in functions and in the courtrooms of the First Precinct, but she lives up to the rumors. She is nothing but alabaster skin and raven locks topped on perfectly formed legs that don’t seem to end until they do on her zino-store ass. You can’t decide where to look, given that she wears the traditional Orzhov keyhole window in her chest and her breasts are quite in line with the rest of her body. Even with her face turned into a scowl, she looks just as radiant and divine as the panting angel that Grandfather Karlov is seated upon. Though not for long as Teysa’s interruption surprises the patriarch, making him stumble and almost fall the ground. Fortunately his angel catches him, and he is only unceremoniously jostled to a standing position.

“It is good money, Teysa, and there is no law against it. Why haven’t you learned that?” Karlov grinds out, though you can see that the younger of the family does not give ground.

“Because there is no law to support it, either! It’s why you lost all your whorehouses in the First Precinct. We may exploit the law, uncle, but the Azorius can make rules where there are none! You are testing your luck, and if this drags more undue attention then you’ll be making all the Orzhov brothels illegal and bring the Obzedat to our doorstep!” she says, mimicking her uncle’s lack of care as she continues to ignore you.

(cont)
>>
>>5042901
“What is done is done! All these papers have my seal and signature. He has his staff, and he has his whores and…” Karlov argues, but once again Teysa cuts off the old man.

“But that’s all he will have. I knew I should have done this myself. As soon as you signed those papers, Uncle, the Azorius lawmages were informed of your intentions! They’ll soon be dispatching Ledevs to these women and make this bureaucratic hell even if we do own them! Good luck making a whorehouse with no whores.” Teysa huffs with finality, and she turns with a pretty swirl of her dress, flashing an even sexier look of her pert ass. With the clicks of her cane on the marble floor, she leaves the both of you, muttering how even if she did help you, there would be no way to save either of you from Karlov’s impatience.

“Damnation and extortion but that girl is right.” Karlov seethes, looking at the papers and already seeing Azorius marks appearing next to his signature, signaling that the law guild has notarized the papers but also ringing true with Teysa’s warning as the colors of the Azor’s eye flash with the symbols of contestation in certain territories.

“Quick, you fool! Don’t just stand there. Collect the girls before the Ledevs do. They may be slow to motion, but once they begin there will be no stopping them!” Karlov barks, waddling to a desk and furiously making writs. He pulls a velvet rope and a gong rings out in the house. Soon enough, a dozen imps fill the room, taking papers from Karlov’s hands. “I’ll do what I can. Maybe I can save a few myself, but you’re the only one that can guarantee which of our profitesses can be safeguarded. Prioritize, boy, and move quickly!”

>What do you do? Which girl do you try to save first? How do you save them? What's the reasoning. I'll leave this up for an hour while you guys discuss and write the next part with the general consensus given. Good luck, cityslicker!

We need to run out of here like a bat out of hell and get these girls as fast possible. If we know anyone who can help us then pull favors or throw money at them to help us get these girls safe in our possession.
I really want to save the Gorgon and Goblin- but we need to priortize our beauties.

>>5042903
Save Elliseria, Meliasa and Yanna first. We need to make big money ASAP and stay afloat till we can secure the others.

Well, that's just all kinds of shit.

If we already have our staff ready to go.
> Ask Lord Karlov to send his imps with your orders to the staff
> Send Sidritzi out to collect Magza and Tolliko
The vamp can move faster than an unaugmented human, and might be resistant/immune to Gorgon powers if she's...irritated.
> Gutclaw can grab up Meliasa and Yanna
Because one is a freak already on a leash and the other can get wrestled into obedience by the dinosaur.
> The MC Pimp himself followed by Valdul and Habel, can acquire Elliseria first, then Peaches and Telya-Dok.

Just posting an update. Halloween stuff is going on my end, but I should be able to post something later tonight. Got a feeling a lot of you guys expect those hours either way.

We need to do a good job with whatever girls we can manage so that Karlov trusts us to pimp out mindslave Teysa.

While the author is being revived, let's just think about the situation...

>>5042913
Anon's got a good plan. Let's assume the staff will know where to drop of everyone off because of either the signed contracts and magics, or the imps.

We'll be picking up the Elf, Goblin and Vedalken. That's three people in a really short time-span... I hope we can get to each of them in time.

If we now own all the documents for the whores and staff we need, we could grab those to look for the most efficient route.

I am also sweating bullets because of our ass rolls. Thank fuck that last Nat1 didn't count.
>>
>>5044405
The pimp game ain't for the weak, we'll rise above these rolls. I agree that does look like the most efficient route.

We really need to get working on that mage training.

Sorry ya'll, just had to deal with some after-Halloween BS. Writing up the next part now, stay tuned.

> Ask Lord Karlov to send his imps with your orders to the staff
Roll: 9

“Don’t you have eyes, boy? That’s exactly what I’m doing! Concern yourself more with actually getting to these girls faster than my imps can get to our Advokists and lawmages!” Karlov wheezes, pudgy hands furiously scribbling away. With only a moment to spare on Karlov’s words, you hastily divvy up which of your new staff should take which girls.

> Send Sidritzi out to collect Magza and Tolliko
> Gutclaw can grab up Meliasa and Yanna
Roll: 4, 1
“The vampire to the slithering ones and the lizard to the ones that need to be collared? Hopefully that locopede of thought will bear out.” the patriarch replies, and you can see Karlov pressing his seal on two letters that you presume are being sent to your lieutenants.

> The MC Pimp himself followed by Valdul and Habel, can acquire Elliseria first, then Peaches and Telya-Dok.
>Special Roll: Thrull

Roll: 18, 16
“But we’ve wasted enough time on prattle. It is time for action! Tamvin, take the lad and grab one of the goldmask thrulls on your way out. It’s time to protect our investments!” Karlov barks, and you feel the first sign of hope for the venture. A modest duty thrull to sweep up after guests or parcel delivery was all that you were expecting when you placed the leftover request, but it seems as though the urgency of the matter has given you a bit of a golden lining. Before you can speak more on the matter, you feel impossibly soft hands grab you under your arms and the ground disappears from under you. Tamvin, presumably the name of the angel, presses you onto her warm, supple chest and you fly from the clerk’s office and out onto the courtyard and straight to the thrull stables.

“I’ll send over your requisitioned enforcer to meet you at the elf maiden’s location. Black Sun be profitable!” Karlov calls out, voice receding in the wind. It is only a moment before Tamvin is whisking you into the direction of the pens, and in an ethereal voice that is both warm, inviting, and empty, she shifts to hold you in one arm and points to the thrulls in the pens with gold-glinting masks.
“Choose…”

>A gargoyle-style thrull shaped like an ape but with batlike wings.

>An equine thrull that looks swift and able to carry loads, though the stubby hands and the flat face on placed on top of the horse-like body is quite unnerving.

>An horrific centipede thrull with six sets of grasping arms and heads on either end of it tipped with gold masks.

The centipede is cool, but having something with the proper form to transport us or others and/or goods and cargo is probably the most convenient both for the current situation and the future, we already have a decent amount of muscle.

>“Th… that one.”

With the barest of motions towards the most intimidating of the three types of thrulls, Tamvin swoops down and scoops up one of the other creatures with her free arm. For a moment there is a surprised wriggling from the creature. Now side by side, your realize this thing is nearly two meters in length and almost as thick around as your own torso. Equally impressive is that Tamvin lifts the both of you up effortlessly into the air without losing any momentum. The thrull’s two mouths open and let out an otherworldly screech in an echo and you try not to think of the mouthpieces as they move to produce such a wail.

“Be silent.”

You feel magic in the air at Tamvin’s voice and the thrull looks fearful and shrinks. Even here, it knows its place in the hierarchy of the Orzhov’s mystical minions.

“Claim it.”

It is not a command and does not carry the same hint of black mana as she did when addressing the thrull, but you can still feel Tamvin’s words seep into your bones. Thankful that you know exactly what she means and your own skills in basic domination magic that had proven so useful in your past collection duties, you grab at one of the thrull’s mask and a hissing sound fills the air as your magic binds it to your will. The thrull ceases its wrigglings and stares at you with both its heads, bowing its head the best it can in Tamvin’s grasp. You let out a sigh of relief that the whole business is settled and look out into the skyline of Ravnica in all it’s glory.

The sight is breathtaking and the city looks as if it is bathed in gold as you fly over the city streets and past the buttresses towering into the sky. You’ve never been this high up as this height is only reserved for angels and the occasional sphinx, and as the city glitters you feel the desire to own it all as any true Orzhov. Maybe one day you shall, and feeling the sensual touch of Tamvin’s body made for luxury and lechery in mind and the cowed look of subservience in the thrull’s faces, it seems that day may not be too far off either.

Eventually your musings come to an end as Tamvin dives down into the metropolis. You feel your ears pop as it does so and you have the fear of becoming a stain on the cobblestone below before the world rights itself and you feel your toes gently touch down on the pavement.

>>5044899

Opening your eyes that you didn’t even realize were closed, you are greeted by a wonderful sight. A beautiful elf maiden stares with wide eyes at you as a watering can shakes in her hand. You recognize her from her portrait, but the static paper cannot hold a candle to the vision of beauty before you. The two of you spend a moment staring at each other, with you drinking in what could be Tamvin’s twin in terms of allure, when your thrulls six hands scraping on the concrete bring all of you back to reality.

>“Eeeeeek!~”

Elliseria screams, dropping the watering can and turning into the building behind her, which looks to be a flower shop. You hear what sounds to be locks behind it and the scraping of what you recognize to be the beginnings of a makeshift barricade. A grim satisfaction settles onto you as you drink in the familiar aura of this setting.

Grandfather Karlov had surprised you with his sudden assignment. You may have felt out of your depth with the promotion, and you were ill-equipped to suddenly become the lead pimp in a relocated brothel for the Karlov branch of the syndicate. But this? This, you know.

Looking at Tamvin and your monstruous thrull that has now reared up to it’s impressive height, you smile.

It was time for Elliseria to pay her tithe.

>Suggest a course of action. I’ll leave this for 3 hours, or whichever response will be the first to get supported/voted on 3 times (Once for the original suggestion, twice in supporting posts).

See you guys in a bit!

I'm not familiar with Ravnica or MtG but I'll give it a go.

>Have Tamvin and/or our thrull break down the barricade, then with an appropriate amount of hurried pomp and arrogance rapidly explain her situation. If she continues to run or resist after we break into her shop then use some domination magic to calm her down and get her to comply. Then move on to the next girl, we don't have a ton of time to waste.

Those tits will come in handy for money making.

Gonna mostly agree with >>5044904 here but add in we're charging her for the time it takes to call in her debt. We're Orzhov and that's just how we roll.

>>5044900
Explain the situation and give her till the count of ten to come out peacefully, then tell the thrull to start breaking in if she doesn't comply.
Meanwhile, circle around to the back door (if there is one) and try to grab her from there.

Do you guys think we should invest in a small garden or something for our big boobed elf to not go crazy in the future? I figure we might have to invest in one thing per whore to make them feel better, or at least see less reason to betray us or see us as an enemy.

The girls will need a private space, purely for their own sanity and well-being. It's difficult to sell sex when your working girls would rather slash their wrists or murder the clientele.

Speaking of well-being, an on-site apothecary/doctor would actually be pretty great. Make sure the girls are safe and healthy with the explicit warning that 'unclean' patrons will be dealt with severely.

It's one thing to be a big sweaty factory worker or dusty tribal scavenger saving up coin to spend a night in a hot soapy bath and a soft bed with a slender elf and a bottle of rum; it's another for some filthy belligerent with a cornucopia of STD's to put their grubby paws on any of the merchandise.

Honestly, a high-quality brothel is just a luxury resort with sex as the main attraction.

Baths, private gardens and guest suites, an apothecary, a bar and kitchen with chef and staff, etc.. We might not be able to attain all these immediately, but they are absolutely the kind of thing that can set an establishment apart from seedy sex dens and dingy love motels.
>>
>>5045420
The Azorious will absolutely attempt to butt in after a while, but that's where the benefit of setting up in Gruul territory has it's advantages. They'll come for raids but we'll know well in advance from all the shouting bullying happening so we can stash/conceal any extras that "outside of regulated amounts" of the stuff.

The Simic and Golgari are way less likely to get pissy over things, but it will be good to keep an eye out for them.

Very happy with the way the rolls turned out, btw.

>add in we're charging her for the time it takes to call in her debt. We're Orzhov and that's just how we roll
Rolled 12 (1d20)

You lean on the doorjamb and speak over the scraping of furniture from behind the entrance. Putting on some honey in your voice, you wait for a moment when you hear the scraping stop and the her panting from exertion to remind Ellisseria of the consequences of defaulting on her loan. At least she listens while you speak, but it doesn’t seem like her mind has changed at all as she just blurts out. “I’ll have the zinos later, I swear. Just come by the next scheduled time and I’ll have it all ready!” which is a variant of things you’ve heard a hundred times before. Maybe you would have, as well, if it were only money you were after. You hear the creak of a blockade being erected again and sigh.

>Have Tamvin and/or our thrull break down the barricade
Rolled 11 (1d20)

Taking a step back and away from the landing, you look to Tamvin and the thrull and jerk your head sideways towards the door. Usually, when you had normal muscle, that was signal enough to break it down. Tamvin just looks on impassively and you’re still not quite sure what the extent of her assistance is for this task. The thrull, however, is much more in tune with your whims and skitters the door. It rears up again with two hands shaking the wood at its hinges while the other four bash and crush the rest of the planks.

A small crowd begins to form, and you begin to get nervous since this is so open in broad daylight and in one of the border areas of the Second and Third Precincts as well. The Selesnya aren’t too influential since you’re still technically in the Second Precinct, and probably the only reason why a slew of elephant men and dryad’s haven’t come rushing to Ellisseria’s aid, but every flash of green and white has you thumbing the handle of your dagger. Still, this is ostensibly Orzhov territory in the Second Precinct and this is debt collection is nominally legal. Only those actually tasked with peacekeeping might stop you, and you see no Boros or Azorius yet. Finally, you watch as the thrull throws the door and onto a group of pots at the storefront. Ellisseria screams, throwing stool at the thrull which smashes uselessly on its golden mask, though you do hear a whine from your servant. It still follows your commands and easily pushes away the dresser and table that Ellisseria had erected to hinder you.

>>
>>5045467
>with an appropriate amount of hurried pomp and arrogance rapidly explain her situation
Rolled 2 (1d10)

Holding out your arms, you try to placate Ellisseria with your most patronizing voice. She’s hysterical and you’ve dealt with her type before. Individuals like her that have led a charmed life so far and never thought to have a setback like a late Orzhov debt, or those that thought the Orzhov’s tight fist when it came to money matters was a lie. Maybe Ellisseria might even had been able to negotiate or even try to appeal to you, and you actually might have liked that. But the choice has been taken away from either of you and time is of the essence. You take on another diplomatic voice, like trying to calm down a skittish horse.

But perhaps your appeal isn’t the best given the circumstances. You note that this collection is a foregone conclusion and that it’s pointless for her to resist. Usually that brings a debtor to her senses, but you underestimate the presence of your hulking thrull covered in splinters and heaving at its exertion, or the eerie Tamvin just watching impassively with a body built for carnal pleasure but a stare that sucked the life out of a room. Ellisseria looks like she sees death in the presence of the three of you and doesn’t hear a thing. She grabs wildly around her, finding the nearest thing and hurls it at you.

Your thrull immediately reaches out to stop the object, and for the most part it does, but all of you in the store realize exactly what Ellisseria has thrown at you. It is the smallest pail of manure, and in truth the thrall catches it just in time, but you still feel two fat drops of sludge hit your cheek and assault your senses. Even Ellisseria knows that she’s fucked up royally, and you begin to see the wavering in her resolve as she mumbles some sort of apology but it is much too late. Whatever patience you had snaps and you summon all your magic into your voice.

“Obey.”

>>
>If she continues to run or resist after we break into her shop then use some domination magic to calm her down and get her to comply.
Rolled 20 (1d20)

The spell is flawless, praiseworthy of your mentors in Orzhova, and you instantly see all thought fly away from Ellisseria’s mind as soon as she hears your words. The elf’s cares and frustrations simply smooth away from her face and her expressions goes from hysteric to a happy daze. You surprise yourself with the textbook example of domination magic as Ellisseria’s tension continues to flow away from her and she gently falls to her knees, looking to you for direction like a lost lamb.

“Yes…” she answers simply, the only thing that the elf maiden can manage as it is connected to your whims rather than any of her presently dormant will.

“Well cast. The Patriarch was right about you.”

The soft voice surprises you and you startle, not realizing that Tamvin had glided to your side. The angel doesn’t react to you and only continues to stare at the placated Ellisseria. A shiver goes down your spine at how similar the two look. Though Ellisseria is in a relaxed and happy fugue and does not show an iota of the dour attitude that Tamvin has, both females exude calm obedience. As if they were meant for nothing else in the world but to follow the command of their superiors.

There is a swirl of emotions as you look at Ellisseria. You’ve done collections before, but this is… different. It had always been about taking what the person owes, what they promised. A nebulous concept when taking from them, even if sometimes they were bodily arrested and dragged away into a debtor’s transport by your hirelings. Ellisseria, though? You’ve collected… all of her.

Your professional instincts kick in as you hear the murmur of the crowds, no matter how much you wish to dwell on Ellisseria. You snap at the thrull, and it dutifully reads your whims, crawling to Ellisseria and scooping her up in two of it’s arms like an eerie centaur. Ellisseria meekly complies, snuggling into the thrull’s embrace. She knows that it is your desire, after all.

You step back out into the sun, and there is a crowd formed, just as you guessed. Off in the distance in the street, you see a man dressed in white and green speaking to what you know is the uniform of the local constabulary. There is a bit of relief as you see that instead of the Azorius blue and white, they sport the red of the Boros Legion. That would mean that the two guards are simple privates patrolling a beat instead of a specialized protection force from the law offices of the First Precinct. You also notice a tall, gold-armored individual with the recognizable winged helmet of the Orzhov Knights.

Out of the way, guildless cretins! Official Orzhov business coming through!” the rough voice calls out, and the civilians easily part in front of Valdul.

>A million things run through your mind right now as Valdul finally makes it to your side and you see the Boros Legionnaires march towards the flower shop with steely expressions. Can you talk to them? Boros are always looking for a fight, and will that be their main course of action? Can Tamvin take all of you away on her wings? You know angels are deceptively strong for their form, but there are four of you now. It is a conundrum and as with how the rest of this day has played out, you only have a few moments to decide your plan.

Guess who just earned the first two weeks of bathroom cleaning?!

I say we have Tamvin take Ellisseria to be prepared and just legal our way out of this. We've got the paperwork, and a newly gathering actual sign of assault on our face (we should wipe it off after we point it out to the Boros) and Valdul near by.

Reasoning:
1) These are privates, the paperwork along for dealing with Orzhov on 'official' business might not be worth it.
2) It shows the rubberneckers that the Church can and WILL collect in broad daylight.
3) I want to make sure we get a good look at that snitch. The debt of wasting our time will need to be paid.
>>
>>5045480
Course of action : tell the Boros soldier this is regular Orzhov debt collection. The Knights will provide more detailed explanation if need arise.
Then tell the knight not to let Boros obstruct you any longer as a wide range of debt are to be recovered too.
If everything went well, send the knight either securing our new house or helping fetch other girls

Our poor boy! Look at his face(s)! That mean knife-ear hurt his feelings! I think a hug will make him feel so much better.

I hesitate to bring Karlov's name up (yet), since the longer we can keep our affairs quiet the longer we can go without drawing unwanted attention - case in point - *but* name-dropping the Patriarch as the MC's superior is definitely going to make lower ranks shy away (at least for now).

One of the Boros guards stay with the man and takes out a pen and paper, jotting down notes. You can tell that the guard doesn’t enjoy the duty at all and seems to be gripping the pencil just a bit too tightly and shaking an armored leg. The more steely faced of the two start begins to approach you. Thankfully, Valdul has waded through the riffraff and now stands next to you, giving even more legitimacy to the scene that is unfolding.

You order your thrull to let Elliseria down. You reason that, even if there aren’t Azorius Ledevs for Elliseria’s retrieval, they are still part of the legal force of Ravnica. There was always a small risk that these two may know something about the contestation regarding your slavewhores. Turning back, you speak in a hushed whisper to Tamvin. You ask the angel to take Elliseria back into the store and fly the elf somewhere safe. As always, Tamvin’s expression is only a mixture of unreadable void and seduction, and you wish that you had been sent with an Enforcement angel rather than one of the more luxurious models, but the discomfort in your pants is a small price to pay for Tamvin’s aid. She nods, taking the girl by the hand. You give a cursory check to see if your perfectly cast obedience spell is still holding, and Elliseria will be yours for a few hours still at the least.

“I will return.” Tamvin says eerily, and you nod. You weren’t looking forward to this exchange, but as far as these Boros know, you’re within your rights. At least you hope that you’ll be able to convince them so.

“Alright, what’s all this then? I don’t even have to do any investigation to know this is disturbance of the peace!” A youthful, angry voice chirps from behind a heavy Boros helmet. You note that this Boros soldier is quite young and that she probably didn’t want to do any investigation in the first place, with her hand already on her pommel.

You immediately launch into your mode of playing the victim, showing your splayed face and the many cuts and splinters on your thrull. You begin to take a shine to your thrull as it grovels and whimpers on the ground, tugging at the hem of your robes like a scolded child as soon as it caught on to your plan. Your attack of verbosity clearly confuses the young Legionnaire and her hand slips from her sword. It becomes more apparent that she had hoped dealing with you would give more action than the one who tipped off her patrol of your activities.

“Alright, alright! You don’t need to keep up with your grease. Just show me the papers and how this lady is your slave and I guess it’s all even.” she says, and you can sense that if she wasn’t currently in uniform that the young woman would have thrown up her hands in frustration to stop you by now.

>QM situational roll
Rolled 9
With a jolt of tension, you realize that you don’t actually have any of the papers with you in the rush that had been the journey here. You make a show of patting your robes and assuring the patrolwoman that you have it, but against all odds Valdul comes to your rescue!

“Black Sun, but you are demanding. Here!” Valdul says, shoving a crumpled roll of paper at the girl. She seems to regain a bit of her spite at Valdul’s harsh words but she manages to unroll the paper.

“Retrieval… reparations… actions of deployment and necessitation… ugh… Look, I can see that this is legit. Just go to the courthouse and sort all this out. You’re still getting fined for disturbing the peace.” She huffs, rummaging in her pack. Your hackles rise at the mention of a fine but immediately you quell those notions when you see the legionnaire pull out another scroll with the Azorius seal. She shoves both on your person and you can feel calendar magic be enacted upon you.

“You’ve been served or whatever. Make sure to be there on your court date with your slave.” the Boros patrolwoman huffs, seemingly glad to be rid of you. The crowd seems to also have tired of the situation as nothing violent or dramatic came about. You breathe a sigh of relief, though you are annoyed that your name is now on the Azorius records again with a ticket. There is also the added wrinkle that you’ll probably have to show up with Ellisseria at a courtroom in the future, but hopefully there’ll be enough time to train the elf by then.

You take one look at the troublemaker that brought all this upon you. The nondescrepit Selesnyan man gulps as he feels your gaze and hastily puts the Boros patrolman he had been speaking with in between you two. No matter, you’ll remember that face.

Finally, the tension leaves your bones as the whole business is resolved.
“Glad that’s over.” Valdul mutters and kicks one of the broken flower pots on the ground. “Where to now?” he adds, and you tell him that you plan to pick up the Rakdos goblinne next. All that you had to do was wait for Tamvin to return before you make your next move…

… but almost an hour passes without a sign of the angel.

>You feel uneasy. There was no real time promised between you and the angel, but it has been a while now and every moment might mean one more girl in the clutches of the Azorius.

Habel *should* be joining us shortly anyway, and the MC isn't entirely defenceless, so I don't have an issue splitting up. I also wouldn't have a problem owing a small favor to a fellow Orzhov...if it weren't for the fact we haven't even started our business yet.

Refer to this post by QM...
>>5042899
Habel is a thrull, Valdul is an Enforcer mook, all our other staff were Named characters that cost more than the mooks. Valdul just got a name afterwards so we didn't have a literal faceless nameless mook hanging around, but when we bought him he is just an ordinary mook-tier enforcer, while Habel is even weaker as the post says.

I'm confused on whether the centipede thrull is Habel or not because he seemed pretty specialized and strong, he broke that barrier no problem after all, and the thrull options we had a choice to pick seemed pretty specialized. Like I assume if we had picked the horse thrull we would have no trouble traveling like with our current dilemma, I assume the gargoyle one would make a strong thug/good scout and could carry people like the angel, and I guess the centipede is strong, horrifying, and good at multitasking.

“Cheers!”
The beast carriage driver tips her hat and trundles away, whistling happily as she leaves with your hard-earned gold. While ultimately it’s only a small fraction of your personal fortune, hiring a private carriage has completely wiped out your on-hand finances. You had tried to get Valdul to pay his own way for the carriage, but the Enforcer correctly and annoyingly reminds you that something like that is his employer’s responsibility. Coupled with the huge, writhing form of the thrull, it had actually taken all your negotiation skills to talk down the driver to the price that had emptied your wallet.

Getting off of the carriage, you look around at this particular Second Precinct neighborhood. It’s a very spartan place, and there are more apartment buildings here than individual homes. You also note that the vedalken presence here is quite heavy. Probably why Telya-dok lives here to begin with. While this is not the First District, you do see telltale signs of Azorius presence. There are no armored Ledevs roaming around as far as you can tell, but there are civilians that show their guild colors as they roam about their business.

You can see that there are people taking note of your presence. Just like the Azorius, nosy busybodies that they are. You nod your head and motion towards a triplex that you know Telya-dok resides in. It looks like a completely normal home, though it does feature a large Azorius pennant in the yard. The three of you make your way to the home.

“Well, what’s the plan, boss?” Valdul asks.

This neighborhood is sickeningly normal to you. While there is usually some show of ostentatiousness in your preferred Orzhov haunts or characterful poverty or depravity in the places where you collect, the Vedalken neighborhood is so bland and uniform that you can feel the color draining from your vision. Even the signs of Azorius markings are muted and pastel, the blue of the cloth or glass almost bleeding in entirely to the white and gray that dominates the palette of this place.

You take one look at the thrull and the hushed whispers of the vedalken that are walking by. It’s a safe guess that Telya-dok will only have a magnified reaction with what the others of her race. Giving the thrull the order to make itself scarce, it looks around for a moment. With instinct born from the type of horror that it is, the flesh-golem crawls past you and underneath the raised patio of Telya-dok’s house. Given that it has a face on both sides of it, you are treated to the gaze of the thrull as it vanishes into the crawlspace, never breaking eye contact until darkness engulfs it.

“Aye, that one’s built creepier than the rest, eh?” Valdul correctly notes, adjusting his halberd. You can only agree as the two of you make it up the steps to Telya-dok’s door and bang on the heavy brass knocker. Hopefully the Vedalken woman will be more accommodating. This is more in line with how you usually handle your collection duties. Without the added theatrics of a meteor landing and a golden angel-woman and hideous thrull, Telya-dok shouldn’t resist with every fiber of her being like Ellisseria.

>>5046575
You hear shuffling inside and the turning of a few locks. The door opens a crack, and a beautiful Vedalken face peers through, though one with a look of worry on her pretty expression.

“I… I wasn’t expecting you today. Do you have the paperwork for the Orzhov licenses and transfer of corpus?” Telya-dok says through the net of chain locks.

Everything is going swimmingly so far. You tell Valdul to show her his copies of the summons, holding it up to the door. After a minute of going through the lines, you hear Telya-dok sigh heavily and slide the locks back and opening the door. Ignoring the obvious distress that Telya is in, she quite fits the bill for your intentions with her. While her bald head and blue skin may deter some people from enjoying her body, she is undeniably beautiful. You wonder if giving her a wig or headdress might increase her profits in the future, but your musings are interrupted by Telya-dok’s quavering voice.

“Everything seems to be in order… is… is there any way we can…” Telya-dok begins, and you can see that she is fighting back tears in those gorgeous, dewy Vedalken eyes. … can we maybe talk about this? Negotiate terms? I… I know the rulings and all, but… but you Orzhov are known for your dealings. Please. I don’t want to be a slave.” she pleads, staring at her feet.

Her house will already be repossessed as soon as you take her, and court records show that she really doesn’t have any other valuables of note. Her hand is gripping rather tightly onto the doorknob and she looks like she’s half a second away from a hysterical fit.

Valdul’s armor clanks next to you, and you see the Enforcer lean on one of the posts of Telya-dok’s patio. He seems to be waiting for your lead in how to handle this.

You’re not sure how Telya-dok is going to react one way or another, but you do need to be decisive and make that decision soon.

If we have the juice to spare, I support this. If not, diplomance the old-fashioned way, by assuring her that if she can prove her use, she will find us accommodating. It's not even a lie! If she is able to prove useful to us personally, and to business operations and handling the law, she might find her living quarters nicer than most, her clientele chosen more carefully... But let's maybe continue to leave her specific duties and what her rewards may be to her imagination. No reason to give away the game by making her status as a sex-slave clear.

Rolled 13 (1d20)

There’s nothing to worry about. Everything is in order. You can trust me.
You summon memories of the quiet calm of Orzhov chapels with soothing, susurrus mantras. It lets you tap into the touch authority and hierarchy that white mana has and the kind of structure that you know Telya-dok will respond to and welcome. It isn’t an exemplary spell like the one you cast on Ellissaria born out of desperation and drive, but Telya is so starved for comfort, for any sort of anchor in her chaotic world that she plunges wholeheartedly into your voice.

“Yes… nothing to worry about.” Telya-dok whispers. She doesn’t have the same blank smile as Ellissaria, but her eyes have glazed ever so slightly and she no longer carries the same tension as before. This is more in line with your previous experiences with mind-magic. Telya is still herself, but her own thoughts are so far away. It’s better to let you fill in the blanks while she waits for herself to catch up. Pity for her, you won’t give her the opening to dwell on anything you say.

>If we make it a logical appeal, that could help, no?
Rolled 12 (1d20)

Slowly you lead Telya into the triplex, stroking her hand and keeping her in her happy acquiescence as you appeal to her Vedalken sensibilities. There isn’t any reason to worry, everything had been certified by the court, and it was an Azorius judge that had given his final word. Trust in the legal system, isn’t it a the perfect structure for order and reason? The Orzhov man that has been sent is so nice and understanding, it’s fine to let him guide you through this transition. Just listen to everything the Orzhov man says and everything will be perfect.

You suggest that Telya go to her closet and pick out her prettiest dresses. The Azorius legal system knows best, and what’s best for her is to go with you to her new home. You spin fanciful tales of how she needs to dress her best since she’ll be in the care of Orzhov now, and she meekly and contentedly agrees, going to her dresser and beginning to pack.

“Black Sun… wish my mum had the coin to send me to the Montessori. That kind of magic is dead useful…” Valdul whistles as you collapse onto the couch in the living room. You only nod, rubbing your temples. Truth be told, your magical abilities have been stretched to the limit today. Most of the time, your commanding spells had been reserved for making a belligerent debtor drop a weapon or forcing a runner to stop by paralyzing them. It’s a bit strange to have to care about the actual physical form of the women you’re collecting from. You’re both proud of the finesse and creativity you’ve shown today and exhausted by it. From what you know, this is the type of control that vampires exert over their victims. The heady rush of it all is amazing, but you don’t have the same core of mana to call from as a vampire or trained wizard does.

“I’m ready to go to my new home now.” Telya-dok says with a placid smile, holding a sloppily packed suitcase in front of her. You can see lacy, frilly underthings peeking out from some of the compartments and you’re glad that the reputation of “dressing your best for the Orzhov” has those kinds of connotations. Telya patiently waits on you for guidance, and you feel as though you were quite lucky. The Vedalken woman was clearly on the verge of a complete breakdown, an incredible amount of stress for her kind, so your mental suggestions of an ordered world seems as something that she dove into wholeheartedly rather than having her psyche break through emotional turmoil.

Harsh reality, however, tears you away from your admiring the handiwork you’ve done to Telya’s mind and her own pleasing form when Valdul peeks through the curtains and his gruff voice brings you back.

Rolled 16 (1d20)


“You can play with your new woman later, boss. It seems like her old friends might be looking for her.” he says.

You scramble to your feet, looking to the window that Valdul is peering through. Sure enough, a Ledev patrol is off in the distance, banners waving high and proud. You’re thankful that there seem to be an old bylaw that necessitates that Ledevs announce their presence so ostentatiously. You can see them coming from what seems like a mile away, and since this is a residential area they are keeping to the painfully slow canter that the mounted speed limit requires. There is only one exit as far as you can tell in Telya’s house, but you at least have some time to figure out your next move rather than be surprised by them knocking on the door and catching you unawares.

Right, so we have the Ledevs coming a do some knocking. Well if remember correctly we had some more rubberneckers maybe we can use them as a means of escaping. Telya-dok isn't resisting, so telling her to follow along, maybe and can just bounce out before we get pinned.

Rolled 15 (1d20)

You make the most of the forewarning and hatch a plan. Valdul doesn’t seem quite impressed by it, but you hear a very dreamy, relaxed voice pipe up from the couch. “Have… him… ask for directions to the… hmm… quickest way to the Augustin grand central station…” Telya-dok says, snuggling deeper into the cushions. It takes a moment for the brilliance of Telya-dok’s suggestion to sink in, but your smile widens considerably and Telya seems happy to have pleased you. Even Valdul seems to have some of his concerns allayed with the genius suggestion of using the Azorius’ bureaucratic nature against them.

“For an addled blueberry, this one isn’t half bad, boss. Right then…” Valdul chuckles, getting up himself. Then he does something, and reveals something, that causes you great surprise. Unlatching his helmet, and taking off his Orzhov cloak and pauldrons, he throws them bundled up at you. That isn’t the most shocking thing, though.

Valdul is radiant underneath his helmet. You’ve been surrounded by beautiful creatures all day, but at least you’ve had some sort of warning when you were about to come across another one. But nothing could have prepared you for Valdul’s tumbling gold locks and boyish-yet-chiseled face. His voice causes actual cognitive dissonance with how handsome he is, piercing you to your soul with his golden eyes. “Ooohhh… handsome…” the uninhibited Vedalken girl says, giving voice to what you were thinking.

“I figure they’ll be more amicable-like if it’s just some merc making his way to the station instead of an Orzhov enforcer hanging around the place where they know Orzhov’s a-comin’ to steal their women!” Valdul says in a barking laugh, shattering the illusion of elegance. You have to admit, it is a good addition to the plan. But Valdul does notice the mood of the room and chuckles again. “Well, mum wasn’t rich enough to put me through knight school either. This face had to pay the rest of the way.” Valdul shrugs, as if that were any sort of satisfying explanation. Before you can say anything to the point, he tosses the bundled armor and cloak at you.

“Right then. Handle the badges for a few minutes, then see you at the goblin lass’ place? Seems simple enough. I’ll be sending you the invoice for the train fare, boss!” Valdul says, turning and marching through the door.

Rolled 13 (1d20)

You wait a moment, peering through the curtains to watch as Valdul jogs a few blocks and into the crowd to meet the Azorius Hussars. Anxiously, you watch as Valdul speaks with them, and the Hussars seem confused. They seem as if they’re about to send Valdul away, but your enforcer says something in reply and you can see a smile crack and a giggle seem to be suppressed in the female knight. You can’t blame her. If Valdul actually had an ounce of charm to use, even a Vedalken would be hard pressed not to have any reaction. Just as Telya-dok predicted, once the female knight accepts the request for directions, she and her partner begin arguing as to which way to the station is more efficient. You can only imagine what bylaws to avoid and instreets are being discussed, but you’re happy to let Valdul deal with that death of boredom.

You count your blessings once more as Valdul turns the Hussars around, ostensibly as if he is asking for clarification on which directions to go to, but very obviously he is giving you a window to get the eyes of the Azorius retrievers away from Telya-dok’s home. Using as much stealth as you can, which is enough given the distance the knights are, you sneak out the door leading Telya-dok by the hand. Hissing your summons for the thrull, the creature skitters from underneath Telya’s porch.

“I… wha… this creature…” Telya-dok begins to whimper, and you can see the glaze lift from her eyes.

>interest roll, keep Telya-dok calm

It’s nothing. Just a harmless Orzhov assistant.

You let the magic pass through your touch and into Telya’s mind. You’re thankful that the first spell is still firmly in place, and Telya’s knit brow smooths, returning to her serene smile. “Yes. Nothing but Master’s harmless assistant.” Telya sighs in relief, and you wonder what kind of world she sees through her eyes to make the lie about the centipede thrull a reality. You also make note of what she called you. Telya-dok’s subconscious seems to be doing a lot of work in your favor, and you quite like the ring of it all. It might be something to explore later and see how much of it will be part of Telya’s manner when she’s awake.

Those, however, are considerations for another time. Ordering the thrull the same as before with Ellisseria, it scoops the complacent Vedalken in his arms and you both make a run for it. You chance a look over your shoulder to see if the Hussars see you, but Valdul still has them occupied and you grin, focusing all your energy into weaving through the residential blocks and into the more commercial district.

You put more distance in between you and the Hussars, panting as you carry Valdul’s heavy armor. You notice that even the thrull is starting to show signs of fatigue, hands tripping a bit as it carries Telya-dok. But you finally reach the wall of the Second precinct. Taking a moment to breath, you order the thrull to let Telya-dok down. It still makes you nervous to be in a precinct where the Azorius can turn at any corner, but it’s not as if just being an Orzhov on the street will immediately tip them that you’re doing something illegal. At least you hope not.

Leaning on a wall, it’s time to think again. You know that there’s the Augustin station, the same as the one that Valdul is pretending to ask the directions for. It probably won’t be too hard to scrape up some sort of cash for the fare. Another option would be to go through Tin Street. It’ll be cheaper, but much more dangerous. You have the thrull, of course, but it’s a long walk and you do have a few people there that won’t be happy to see you if you go through the main thoroughfare. You can also risk the back-alleys of Tin Street. There may be less townsfolk that bear a grudge with you there, but then there’s just the regular fear of being accosted. At least you have Telya-dok’s happy presence to give you comfort before you make any big decisions.

>>5047326
So if we go to get some funds we have two negatives to watch for
Whoring out Telya on the street of a ritzier district is almost a sure fire way to catch another summons, but also not a quick way to make money as the citizens are less likely to go for a street walker where they might be seen by colleagues.
We could try petty theft or extortion but we are very close to the azorius head offices, we’d need to be lightning quick to get away with it.
Tin street might actually be less hassle. The danger is higher sure, but outside of a getting caught in a Rakdos carnival spilling into the street, nothing should slow us down as much as an azorius arrester deciding we broke the law.
Tin street also allows us to advertise a little, have Telya smile and blow kisses to passerbys telling them to come see her over in precinct 4.
>>
>>5047338
We're gonna get jumped going down main Tin Street I say we cut into the back alleys and pretend we're a couple on our way to fuck at home.

It should keep our blue gal a little calmer for the touch, while still a bit of advertisement and people are more likely to believe randy people in the Tin Street back alleys.
>>
>>5047380
I’m not certain about the back alleys, Orzhov are known to have money, if an unsavory sort sees us in a back alley they’ll probably like their chances better. A crowded market street is less likely for a mugging and our coin purse is empty so it’s not like a pickpocket is going to be that much of a threat.

>>5047326

I'm torn, especially since we seem strapped for resources, our thrull is tired, our minions are elsewhere, we are also tired and our magic relatively exhausted, and we are outta cash.

I guess I think it best to go through the main thoroughfare of Tin Street, walking relatively slowly so as to allow our thrull to regain its strength and using what remains of our magic to deal with any trouble or people that accost us. Then, with our thrull hopefully recovered, we'll rely on it to deal with any trouble at our last stop.

That would be my plan anyways.

Agree with Tin Street. No way we're coughing up money out of nothing.

But I also agree that we are reeeaally stretched thin. I'm hesitant to say this since the others we so hyped about the goblina, but shouldn't we leave her behind? I'm concerned that we'll get stopped, we have to use magic or muscle, something goes wrong and then we are really on the run.

Taking one of the many side gates not monitored by the Azorius that head into Tin Street, you take Telya-dok by the hand. The smell of Tin Street immediately assaults you with it’s mix of spices, perfumes, animals, and crush of the populace. The garish and bright colors of the more exciteable and criminally inclined guilds are everywhere, as well as the largest group of unguilded populace out in the streets.

While it is a welcome site and you feel the relief of no longer being in the grasp of the Azorius here, a disturbance reminds you that you’ve only changed one danger for another. A goblin thief has caused a commotion, weaving in between the legs of several denizens of Tin Street as he nicks anything he can get his hands on. Unfortunately his luck runs out as a massive hoof stomps the green creature into paste. The Krovod looks curiously at its now gory foot as the vendors the deceased goblin has stolen from have started to gather around the beast. The arguments of who pays for the damages just melts into the din of Tin Street, and you know that this is just one of the many such scenes that are playing out in the main thoroughfare.

These petty sort of people, while relatable in their stinginess, are the sort of folks you’d like to avoid. Their memories run deep, and as an Orzhov, you know that death isn’t where these kinds of grudges end. Turning behind one of the larger buildings, you lead Telya-dok and the thrull into the back alleys of Tin Street.

For the most part, people give you space, especially with your thrull. While there are a few individuals that look to be trouble, they seem preoccupied with their own shady dealings. You definitely would not be making this trip if it were the middle of the night instead of the afternoon. You jinx yourself, however, as you one of the alleys you go down begins to narrow. With a rustle of dirty rags on a line, a grubby human male with a knife jumps out from behind a crate.

“Gimme yer gold, Orzhov!” the thief declares through rotten teeth.

>encounter roll, thrull reaction
Rolled 9 (1d20)

Your thrull leaps into action, and the thief looks genuinely surprised. With the cloudiness of his eyes, you can tell that he’s started to go blind from substance abuse or is intoxicated right this moment as well. But the situation is not in your thrull’s favor. With the clothes lines and crates around it as well as its general exhaustion, the thrull’s hand slips on a rotwood box that could not support its weight. It crashes to the ground and whimpers, and you see that its has hurt itself.

>encounter roll, damage to whoever loses out on the first encounter roll
Rolled 10 (1d20)

Thankfully it only looks to be a flesh wound, but the shock and it’s fatigue is keeping your thrull down, at least for the moment. Even with your passive mana keeping the spell on Telya-dok active, even she can sense that this is not a good situation and has begin squeezing back in your grip.

The thief blinks for a few moments then realizes that the thrull has been taken out of commission, and grins wide with what few teeth he has.

“Hah! That’s whatcher gets! Now cough up your gold or gimme your woman!” he hacks, still brandishing his knife menacingly at you.

What a predicament. Your magic is strained after two domination spells and maintaining Telya-dok’s fugue. Should you talk your way out of this? Do you have anything to trade? You have your own dagger, maybe you can fight? Is there enough mana left to try and do one more spell? You only have a split second to think about your next action as the grimy thief begins to advance.

>brandish knife/intimidate/stab the hobo
>the higher the roll, the more the fight goes in your favor
Rolled 2 + 1 (1d20 + 1)

You look at your injured thrull and the disturbed spell over your enthralled merchandise. You’ve already wasted enough time with this vagrant and you take out your gilded knife. The mugger squints and mumbles something about you being quite cheeky even after your ugly dog had hurt itself. Scoffing, you reply that the bum will be paying for your thrull’s injuries with flesh from his own body, pointing the blade at the unimpressive man.

But the vagrant is more unstable than you’ve judged. As soon as you make any motion to raise your weapon, he leaps at you. He must be under the influence of something as there was no way you would have predicted how reckless this man is. He flails wildly, and you try your best to respond. You manage to strike at the man’s arm, but he barely notices it. You, however, do not have the benefit of whatever the crazed hobo is on and when he slashes at your side, the pain rockets up your side and you drop your own knife.

>consequence of the prior roll
>the higher the roll, the more in favor the consequence will be for you
Rolled 3 + 1 (1d20 + 1)

The wound is deep and you find yourself leaning on the alley wall as blood starts pouring out of you. You don’t think it’s hit anything vital, but the pain is incessant. Forcing your eyes to unclench, you open them just in time to see the hobo leering at Telya-dok.

>if/how your NPC companions react
>the higher roll, the better
Rolled 7 + 1 (1d20 + 1)
The thrull is still on the ground as all of this is occurring, gingerly trying to stand but moaning pitifully whenever any weight is placed on its arm. Telya-dok, who you inadvertently let go of, seems to blink more and more, the sensory overload of trying to keep the illusionary world of obeying your suggestions in her mind against the actual situation you are in straining and keeping her from acting. Unfortunately, her dazed form proves an easy target and the mugger grabs her wrist.

>>5050986
>how well Telya-dok stays under your control
>the higher the roll, the more in favor the consequence will be for you
Rolled 19 + 1 (1d20 + 1)

“N… no. Let me go!” Telya says, as forcefully as her enchanted state and Vedalken reservedness allows her. She jerks her hand forcefully back, and the hobo doesn’t expect her to resist so fiercely. Both of them tumble backwards. Thankfully Telya-dok falls into the waiting arms of the thrull, who is conspicuously not using one of its arms that is also leaking strange, gray goo. The vagrant curses, scrambling up to his feet. It finally seems as though his injuries are catching up to him, as well as his senses. But with the way the three of you look and the own relative unscathed condition he is in, he lets out a hacking cough.

“Fine. This is turnin’ into a mess anyways. Just gimme all your nice stuff. Empty your pockets, gimme dat fancy knife and the lady’s bag… and them masks on the dog. Then we can just go on with our day. You should think fast, she don’t look like no Simic vedalken and that hole in yer side don’t look too good.” he rasps. His stance is more solid now, and he looks at the three of you challengingly.

>The fight has ended badly, and while the hobo’s advantage isn’t the greatest one, he is in a better position than you. The noise will surely have attracted other back-alley denizens by now, and the sunlight begins to turn red. You can see the main thoroughfare of Tin Street just over the hobo’s shoulder. Can you make a run for it? Telya-dok probably can, but the thrull looks the worse for wear. Do you give in to the hobo’s demands? Or maybe you can grit your teeth just hard enough and hope that you’re faster with making a grab for your knife than the hobo might be.

Rules always same as before. :)

This is a bad idea, we'd be fighting from a disadvantaged position, with a high number of rolls for many actions we have more chances to roll a crit fail. Best to part with our non-essential loot and make a break for it.

Then again, going through these alleys without a weapon when we've already attracted attention isn't a wonderful choice either, but I'd rather not risk a game-over here rather than deferring that until the next choice at the very least.

>Don't give him the knife, throw him the hang-bag and nothing else, do it forcefully so as to scatter the things contained within and make him scramble for them. Then run with our companions.

We don't have money to hand over, I don't know if the mask is important to the thrull and I'd rather not have to reimburse our boss for the gold mask and I don't want to give up our fancy weapon, so this will have to suffice.

>roll 1, how well/far you toss the bag
Rolled 16 (1d20)

You shakily get on your feet, motioning for Telya to come to you. As soon as she sees you commanding her, Telya-dok shivers in relief, completely ignoring the vagrant and rushing toward you. You brace yourself against her and grab her bag, which she readily surrenders. Looking down, you feel a tinge of regret as one of the frillier underthings tickles your palm, but it’s time to put bad business behind you.

“Well… if you want it so badly…”

You heave the bag behind you. You can feel your stab wound complain against the exertion, but it’s not as if the bleeding was going to be getting worse anyway. The bag sails behind you and actually bounces off a corner of the alley and away from everyone’s eyeline. The hobo curses, watching it’s arc, growling as he looks back at you.

>roll 2, how stupid the thief will be in his reaction
Rolled 10 (1d20)
“Rrr… stupid prick…” he swears. Looking at where the bag has gone and the sounds of other alley-denizens making remarks about the bag, he shuffles towards the bag. He does, however, snatch the knife as he makes his way to Telya’s clothes, sneering at you as he does. There’s a moment where his eyes flick towards the thrull, but the creature still has five working limbs and many of them are balled into fists. The hobo spits on the ground in front of you, mumbling something about it being your lucky day, and shambles away to where the bag is.

>roll 3, QM interest roll
>how well the thrull can keep up with you
Rolled 17 (1d20)

That was an exceedingly steep price and you still have niggling feelings that perhaps you should have fought a bit harder. But the pain in your side and the setting sun is telling you that it’s not time to dwell on hypotheticals. With a grunt towards the thrull, you tell everyone to hustle towards the exit of the alley. The thrull, grasping its own hand and stemming it’s ‘bleeding’, manages to get up on all fours and your small party manages to hobble out of the back alleys and into Tin Street proper.

Up until that run-in, you had actually made good time through the short-cut. You see the gates leading to the 6th Precinct in sight, and you know you’ve made it past the main area where you had done your debt collecting in the past. Another thing that fills you with some sense of security is an arbitrary Orzhov giant meandering the street, munching idly on a whole, roasted sheep. Most likely an off-duty house guard, but at least its presence of your guild.

>>
>>5051922
>Blood is still dripping from your side. You don’t know how serious it is, but the bleeding has stemmed. Telya-dok has a look of concern, but still through the cloudy eyes of your domination spell. The thrull, though on its feet, looks completely spent. Should you look for a healer, or at least first aid? There are a few merchants here. Maybe there is a Simic clinic or a Selesnya healer around. But how would you go about paying them? Maybe some owed favors? Perhaps you can risk a small debt to whatever Orzhov might be around? Valdul is also probably waiting at the Rakdos goblin’s location. Maybe it’s a good idea to meet up with him? As always, you have the wealth of options, but without the necessary resource of time.

If we cannot find a conveniently decent healer that is willing to work on us immediately and for relatively cheap (not bankrupting us or holding a major favour over our heads) then just meet up with Valdul so we have some security and can finish this job and rest for a bit.

It’s a strange experience, having your thrull care more about your injury than your ensorcelled sex slave. The thrull looks dejectedly at your stab wound, though its own seems just as serious, while Telya-dok seems to be in a perpetually dreamy smile. Then again, this may just be that famed Vedalken placidity. You don’t have much experience with her kind apart from the few Azorius law enforcers you’ve had the displeasure of dealing with in the past. You give her the benefit of the doubt and assume that it’s due to the strength of the enchantment she is under and take heed from the thrull’s wimpering.

Looking around, you blanche at a few Izzet dentistry practices that seem to want to demolish cavities via explosives. Your vision is becoming swimmy, and you realize that you most definitely need a doctor. Had you gone off to the Sixth Precinct, there would be no telling what would have happened to you if you didn’t have access to even the least of the Tin Street quacks. Given the urgency, you just go with your gut instinct and primary school learning. When in medical doubt, find the Simic route. There are a few stores with Simic signage about, but you stumble in to the closest one. Thankfully, luck seems to be on your side for once. Still leaning heavily on the thrull, you enter the waiting room of this particular office has a few denizens of Ravnica with assorted injuries. A medical practice for certain.

The Vedalken nurse at the reception looks at you with alarm, or the Vedalken version of it at least. You sigh, thankful that this place at least seems professional, and she rises from her desk and immediately begins to fuss over you. She looks at Telya and begins to converse in Vedalken. Telya-dok inclines her head and just smiles, speaking their mathematical language in turn. The nurse’s expression turns infinitely more unreadable, but she turns to speak to you.

“Your property has informed me of what has transpired. Since it is only a mundane stab wound, you will not require the assistance of the doctor. Please wait in the first room to your right and place this on your wound with pressure.” she sniffs, going behind her desk and fishing out what looks to be a distended and clearly suffering frog, though it seems bloated beyond belief. You’ve heard of plax-treatment before, but knowing what is about to happen means very little when confronted with the disgusting creature. It seems as though your expression is enough of a cue for the nurse, and she speaks a few sentences of Vedalken to Telya. Your Azorius pet simply nods, taking the frog and slipping it under your robes to cover your wound before you can even react. Immediately, you feel relief, but you feel even woozier as well. No leaning on both Telya-dok and the thrull, you let yourself be guided into the examination room and let yourself be seated. While you are grateful that the treatment seems to be working, it is just shy of an hour before the nurse returns.

>the outcome of it all
Rolled 20 (1d20)

After the chime of the clock towers ringing out that it is now properly the sixth hour and eveningtime, you rise, debating the merits of just leaving outright. As if she were a precognition mage on top of being a nurse, the Vedalken woman drifts into the room as soon as you are on your feet, handing you a clipboard.

“Sign here for your healthcare today. Thank you for visiting West Tin Street Simic Outreach Clinic.” she says simply, and you immediately look at the document for the price.

And, boggling your mind, there is none. Completely free, without any strings, all taken in and absorbed by a greater city health fund for the impoverished. It seems the absolutely mundane nature of your injury, though it wounds your pride, has made it so that this particular clinic only used common resources to heal you. As if on an afterthought, the nurse peeks into the room one last time. “You may use the plax-frog on your minion as well. It is not well documented what the effects of graft treatment is towards artificial bioforms, but your creature seems stable enough. Please leave your paperwork on the bench and exit as soon as possible. We will be needing this room for our next patient.”

Not wanting to test your luck, you say your thanks and pull the plax-frog off with a wet pop. The miserable creature lets out a sad croak, but looking at your wound, there isn’t even a line of a scar. In fact, the place where the frog had plastered itself looks much healthier than the rest of the skin next to it. Heeding the nurse’s advice, you place the nearly depleted frog on the thrull’s arm, and it seems to be knitting the flesh just the same as it did yours, though the frog is turning a very unhealthy gray.

As you exit, seeing the next patient that the nurse had alluded to, which was a minotaur that seemed to have an extra set of horns protruding from it’s head, the Vedalken woman says one last thing to Telya-dok. It doesn’t seem to be anything too impactful as Telya simply nods and leaves with you with nary a break in her stride. Curious, you ask her what the nurse had said.

“She informed me of a clinic nearby to test for venereal disease. I wonder why she would mention that?” Telya-dok mused. You gulp, replying that you have no idea either.

It is now night-time proper, and you have spent an inordinate amount of time at the clinic. While it is nice to still be alive, a few things occupy your thoughts. It is a near certainty now that whatever force that has been used to retrieve your Rakdos goblin will have been used by the Azorius.
>There is a good chance that she is so deeply secured in Rakdos territory that the Hussars sent to find her were delayed and you might try to gather her, but it is only a chance and just as likely that she is already in their protection. There is the matter of Valdul, but given the canny street-smarts that he has displayed, you aren’t too worried for him.
>Tamvin is a concern. Perhaps she eventually did return to the flower store and is still waiting for you. It would mean backtracking through Tin Street, but now you might use the main thoroughfare.

>Return to the Karlov estates, send a runner to fetch Tamvin and/or Valdul from the flower shop if they aren't back yet

It has been a rather eventful day, but the night is still young and the Karlovs await. You purposefully take only well-known, well-lit roads on your way back, winding in from Tin Street to the proper Orzhov territories near the Vizkopa. While your pace would not be called leisurely, the uneventful trip gives you time to weave the spell over Telya-dok much better. She isn’t at the same point of slavishness as Elliseria, but coupled with her natural Vedalken reticence, she is the picture of a dutiful attendant.

There is a gripping anxiety that surrounds you as you approach the Karlov estates. You’ve only secured one of the three slaves from your excursion and perhaps lost two retainers besides. If you were a more ignorant member of the guild, you might have been tempted to run. But the Orzhov’s reach is long and that would be a direct line into becoming chum for the thrull vats or becoming a pitiful belfry spirit tasked with doing one inane chore for the rest of your afterlife. Being punished with the chance to work back from your circumstances or, more dangerously, towards revenge, is infinitely better than walking straight into an iron maiden to feed the guild vampires.

You are, of course, expected and the servants and thrulls that you encounter direct you to one of the larger board rooms to face Grandfather Karlov. As you pass through the many rooms of the estate, you notice that this is the crowd of the Orzhov that you are more familiar with. In the day, only the clerics of the church and advokists of the court drift through the halls. Now that the sun has set, enforcers hefting their weaponry and guildmages extracting their payment from flesh and purse can be seen through open doors of some of the workrooms. Vampires now roam the halls as well, and while you are nominally protected from their advances, you still bring the collar of your robes up higher to avoid any unnecessary temptation. And finally, the ever present money changers and bankers still rattle off numbers and statistics in their own meeting rooms. You know that the Izzet and Simic are the obvious choices for mathematics, but here real values are being tested, manipulated, and plied with just as much genius and enthusiasm as any engineering or chemistry lab.

These all prove to be minor distractions as you near the end of the hall, knowing that you’re finally at your destination. You’re surprised to see a vision of beauty standing at the door, though that beauty is twisted into a disgusted sneer. Teysa Karlov once again deigns to grace you with her presence.

“Hmph. So you’re the one that’s caused all of this trouble? I was expecting something… else.” she scoffs, not even waiting to see if you reply. For surprising agility for someone with a cane, she brushes past Telya-dok impatiently. You watch as she retreats, leaving only the clipping of her cane and the memory of her swaying ass in her wake.

Then a thundering voice cuts through your thoughts.

“Enough dawdling, boy! I know you’re out there! Come here at once so we can salvage some semblance of profitability from this debacle!”

Letting go of a breath you didn’t realize you were holding, you steel yourself. Entering the board room, you don’t dare to hope…

>rolls for Sidritzi’s escapade and number of girls saved
Rolled 4 out of 20 for Sidritzi’s escapade, rolled 1 for girls saved.
>rolls for Gutclaw’s escapade and number of girls saved
Rolled 1 out of 20 for Gutclaw’s escapade, rolled 2 for girls saved.

And once you enter, you are greeted by a sight of alluring delight. Six lovely beauties are collected here. Seated at the long table is Sidritzi, your old acquaintance, in full display of her feminine mystique as always, playing cordially with a flute of blood. You do make note that her usually vibrant olive-hue is paler, a clear indication that she has spent most of her vampiric energies for the day. With some relief you see Tamvin there as well, standing at attention, though more accurately, on display. Hopefully you will be appraised of what happened there in this little meeting. Another gorgeous woman, wearing the traditional robes of an Orzhov slave with a proud slave tattoo branding her clavicle, is who you can only presume is Meliasa. You were right in your prediction that there might be something unbalanced with her, given the gleam in her eye, and with the rest of the women that were collected here, that gleam has set her quite apart.

The rest, however…

Lined up on display at the very front of the room, three stunning and quite obviously hypnotized women pose and entice you and imaginary patrons to the beat of a metronome. With each slow beat of the device, the girls change their poses as if they were portraits, showing the archetypical view of the front of a brothel. Elliseria has been given center stage, radiant and done up incredibly to portray a virginal image. Her diaphanous white gown is accented with pastel greens, and while the material does not reveal anything, the phantom lines of her nipples and the curve of her mons are all the temptation needed to advertise what she promises. Only the faintest, pure ivory tattoo of an Orzhov slave peeks behind her nape, and only when she turns to pose. It’s quite obvious that she is meant to be advertised as an experience all on her own.

To her right is a vibrant, green and neon pink woman, exotic frills and fins directing the eye in a scintillating pattern. Only the glaze in Tolliko’s eyes are dull, showing her entranced state, not that you would see from her animated and energetic expression. She is just as shapely and graceful as Elliseria, though with more of an emphasis on her actions to lure the viewer in rather than just her beauty. There is no obvious Orzhov slave marking on her, but at the chime of the metronome, you see the pattern bloom on her scintillating skin, a natural Orzhov claim that shimmers like a chameleon’s pattern.

And last, you have who can only be Yanna. Tall, and strong, all topped with a spectacular tan and flaming red locks, she only has a collar on her neck. Even with the scars spiderwebbing her body, she gives the essence of a true, wild beast. Sinew and toned muscles slide sensually from one pose to another, all of them accenting her strength and fitness. She is meant to be bred, a wild mare to be broken. It’s quite easy to note that her selling point is going to be quite wide, ranging from those that wish to break her or be broken by her magnificent thighs. You even appreciate the glistening mixture of sweat and glycerin that no doubt has been applied to her body to give her that shining, just fucked look.

>>5056586
Finally, ruining all of this, is Grandfather Karlov, leering at the display of women with a chin dribbling with drool. He makes no attempt to hide his lust and happily flicks the metronome every so often to speed the girls through the poses of their entranced display. You don’t even know how Karlov noticed you with how enraptured he is by your recruits, but as if he could hear you, the patriarch silences the metronome with one grubby paw. As if their strings had been cut, the three women stop their show and all stand at a relaxed attention, their heads dipped down and their breathing deep and even as they as placed in a storage sleep.

“Hngg… Tamvin, put that other one up here.” Karlov grunts, and Tamvin steps straight into action. With one flick of her wrist, you see a binding spell lift Telya-dok from your side and levitated next to the three at the head of the room. More of Tamvin’s magic is on display as articles of clothing fly away from Tamvin’s body, and you are treated to the smooth beauty of blue, Vedalken skin. All through this, Telya does not seem to mind or care. Your magic sees to that.

“Ah… beautiful. But she doesn’t match the set. Put her to sleep. She needs to finish the picture…” Karlov chuckles, and you oblige. With a snap of your finger and a nudge of your will, Telya-dok’s eyes close and her chin dips down, merging with the other four living statues in their slumber.

“Right then. Now we can focus on the DISASTER that has been this project.” Karlov bemoans, swiveling on his chair to face the Orzhov members assembled. You walk towards an empty chair and take your seat, only to stand back up in surprise after hearing a wet crunch underneath you. Alarmed, you look down on the chair and see a mangled, scaly hand, clutching an Orzhov signet.

“Poor, poor Gutclaw. No finesse at all. He just had to be so… Gruul… when confronted by those Hussars.” Sidritzi sighs, swirling her glass. “Well… lemons and lemonade.” she laughs, tipping over the glass. Suddenly, you aren’t too sure if that was meant as a salute to the viashino or a darker implication for what was in the flute in the first place.

“Oh, but he did get all of his charges through and on to the transport, Miss Sidritzi. I mean, we should at least give him credit for doing his job right.” Meliasa giggles, and there is a sudden chill coming from Sidritzi. The slave is brazen, but she is Orzhov, and you know that there are some freedoms given to Meliasa for volunteering herself for this duty rather than being a debtor such as the four on their pedestals. The implication is not lost on you as you do notice the absence of the gorgon. It also makes you realize that there is also one more pedestal set in the display, smaller than the rest and a reminder of your own failure.

“Enough squabbling, girls. Sidritzi, hold your fangs lest you take the place of the one you lost on. And Meliasa… you hold your tongue unless you want to LOSE your spot among them. And don’t think you’re off the hook yourself, Szjytvi. I caught Tamvin as she deposited the elf here. Given how you were handling things, I would have rather lost a goblin than an angel to some Rakdos demons…” Karlov barks, and both women settle back, all three of you chastised. Letting out a deep breath, Karlov sinks back into his chair and for once looks like a tired old man rather than a disgusting toad.

“Two girls and one asset gone. Three thousand projected zinnos, scattered in the wind. These losses are… something that will require recouping…” Karlov sighs, sitting down. “Do not take my countenance as acceptance for this. I am quite livid. But I won’t dwell on this, boy. There’s time enough for me to hold grudges once I’ve made it to the Ghost Council. Now is the time to recover and get back our operation to bring back what we’ve lost and hopefully into the black. It is up to you and your actions on whether I place the blame on Azorius meddling that we happen to overcome, or the poor management of a pimp that will need to pay dearly to the organization” Karlov mutters, with no ambiguity in his threat.

“Still… I am not unreasonable… this operation must continue, and you are still the best for this job. We have… options… to soften this blow to our startup.” Karlov continues, and with a small nod to Tamvin, conjures a selection of papers in front of you.

“One of the reasons I picked you is that you’re both good at collecting money, and accruing it. I’ve seen your life savings. An incredibly sum for one of your age. 2673 gold zinos, 23 zibs. Quite the retirement fund, or a jumping off point for your own afterlife conquests.” Karlov notes, and you both feel pride and danger for your personal wealth being put out in the open.

>>5056591
“Here’s the rub, boy. These losses need to be absorbed, one way or another. We were giving you a refurbished tavern to run your business out of, but that may not be on table any longer. And there is the matter of your lost human resources…” Karlov recounts. “… therein lies your decision. Do you go exactly as you are, with just the staff that you have and the lesser establishment? Do you wish to put your own investment into the venture? Or perhaps you would like to take a… business loan… for all that this venture will be lacking due to these unfortunate circumstances?” Karlov drawls, laying the options out quite clearly for you.

>Your personal funds can make up the difference of the value you’ve lost today. If you use 1300, you can get 2 debtor-whores and one staff member, or get back the tavern rather than whatever lesser substitute Karlov had lined up. If you use all 2600 of your money, you get both.
>You can also take out a loan or just go with what you have, with your diminished staff and lesser location.
>There’s always being creative and suggesting other paths too.

Rules same as always for the choices. Hope this big post makes up for my busy weekends

>Use 1300 to buy the tavern.
I'm anxious to start this business already.

>>5056592
I say we just spend the 2600 now, and get both options. I don't really trust a lesser location when we have so much we have to get back on. Plus showing we're willing to put our own neck on the line might reflect well on us down the road.

We still got most of the good girls and we have to remember that they are literally 10/10 merchandise which more than softens the blow of losing some of them, we don't need more whores and we still have the ghost maid, but it is best that we start with a proper establishment. Going into debt isn't wise, but a moderate investment of our personal funds can get us back into good shape easily.

(It looks like no matter what happens, we’re buying the tavern.)

Karlov stares at you a bit incredulously. To think that you would put up your own zinnos for the venture! You already know that the patriarch is calculating in his mind. Why would you do such a thing? Is there something that he has overlooked? Maybe this venture is more profitable than he realized? Does the fact that you are now a minor partner in this mean you’ll run the house better or does that mean that he loses more profit down the line. Like any good Orzhov, Karlov is looking at this from many angles, almost all of them long term. It’s your turn to do your own calculations when you see his fat face break out in a yellow smile.

“Partners it is, my boy! Absolutely. You’ll be getting a cut of the profits, as well as options for the girls. Why, I’ll even give one of them to for your own right now! Just not the elf, of course, she’s premium. But any of the others is to do as you will! I am quite looking forward to our new venture, co-owner!” Karlov chuckles, snapping his fingers. Tamvin immediately pulls out the contracts for the girls from… somewhere, but it looks as though Karlov isn’t finished yet.

“This infusion is quite the boon, my young friend. With it, you have much more control over the business itself, as long as you remember your dear old patriarch come the end of the month…” Karlov nods, turning back to his serious façade. “… Tamvin, be a dear and bring out the renovation options as well.” The angel nods and, on the other side of the table, rolls out a large scroll enchanted to project many of the options you will be selecting from for the tavern.

You have 3000 gold to spend on options. Just as buying the girls or selecting your staff, the options will be bought in order of posts. Only one option or level bought per post, and only one post per hour for each used ID.

General Tavern Reservations (3 levels, 500 zinos for each level) – original tavern has had basic repairs made.
>1st level – Rub and Varnish. Instead of just the meager renovations to the old tavern, this will restore it to it’s original condition when it was first built. Very basic, but at least it’s clean and the wood doesn’t show decades of Gruul and Boros barfights
>2nd level – Saloon style. The furniture has been replaced as well as all the fixtures and decoration. Everything is comfortable and inviting.
>3rd level – Grand Brothel. Black lace and red velvet everywhere. The finest Izzet light bulbs and a grand chandelier. Carpets, stuffed dead animals. This is a place where even the precinct governor or sheriff wouldn’t mind being seen in the daytime.

Bar Options (2 levels, 250 zinnos each) – original tavern comes with a bar and a few barrels of liquid labeled “strong stuff”, “cheap stuff”, and “beer”.
>1st level – All sorts – Instead of just whatever gutrot and stale ale you can get your hands on from the Golgari Farms, you actually have a variety of liquor and beer for your guests. This comes with one goblin barkeep.
>2nd level – Full service – With a mixologist and things like little fruits and umbrellas for your drinks. This is a show in and of itself and might bring in patrons that don’t even need to see the girls. Comes with one Cayote Ugly (pretty) Genasi bartender and the goblin from the 1st level option as a busser.

Bedroom Options (2 levels, 250 zinnos each) – original tavern has basic rooms that are wallpapered with basic brown beds and sheets.
>1st level – the swank hotel – All the servicing rooms will have the plushest of sheets and fine, down mattresses. A proper upgrade from the boxspring mattresses and economic brown bedcovers that the brothel comes with.
>2nd level – themes and dreams – Some rooms will be specifically renovated. For those that have a nautical want or maybe wish to see the girls in a big birdcage, or have them rotating with big mirrors everywhere, this will bring in the fetishists that spend big money. You’ll still have to find those whales, though.

>>5058867

Casino Options (2 levels, 250 zinnos each) – original tavern does not come with a casino
>1st level – Repurposes some of the floor space for card tables. A part time staffer will run the card games and keep the money in check. Be warned that this option does bring some more dangerous elements though more money is guaranteed with it.
>2nd level – games and security – split level is made for the games section and a wall of slot machines are installed. You will also come with a minotaur pit boss to make sure everything runs well and acts as security for rowdier gamblers. The pit boss will take a cut of all the gambling profits for this, however.

Music! (2 levels, 250 zinnos each) – original tavern does not come with any music
>1st level – Stand-up piano with player sheet and part-time pianist. Something to liven up the place on the weekends and background music for the bar with the player sheet during weekdays.
>2nd level – bandstand and stage – A section of the main floor is raised and given curtains. The pianist is now full-time and during the weekends a live band plays.

Sex Dungeon (500 zinnos) – original tavern only has a basement
>The basement is split into two for the bar and the other half walled off and made into a S&M cellar. Made for the sole purpose of curbing some of the more Rakdos inclined customers. Various whips, chains, and toys/tortures are set up in the basement. Girls will require special training for this and will need to have investment placed if they are to go to this option. If an untrained girl is placed here, there will always be a roll for injury for the session.

The Bath-house (500 zinnos) – original tavern has no bathhouse
>a large, luxurious bathing extension is made at the back of the tavern. Private saunas and hot tubs are here for those willing to spend the money for bathing beauties and soapy sensual delights.

The Front – (2 levels at 250 zinos each) – original tavern only has the front wooden sign.
>1st level – the advertising delight – New lettering, windows, and signage is made with custom paint. A large billboard that can be decorated with specific girls or services is added on the roof. May or may not cause undue legal attention, but this is the Bulwark so hopefully not.
>2nd level – everything with the first option, but wired with Izzet flash and lights. An innovation that the Rakdos have proven to be very profitable.

Good luck with the options, everyone. Looking forward to seeing how the brothel turns out!

>General Tavern Reservations: 1st level
Have to write LOCK IT IN HOMIE due to autism.

I'm thinking we should aim for Tavern Level 2, Bar Level 1, Bedrooms Level 2 (we're a brothel after all), Music Level 1, Bathouse and Front Level 1 right now.

1000+250+750+250+500+250. Will put us at exactly 3k Zinno spent and provide other accomodations aside from just simply being a brothel so our patrons have reason to become regulars. We can then expand this with the Casino straight to Level 2 for that extra security and upgrading the Bar to go with it.
>>
>>5058884
I just realized I put 750 as the cost of the Bedrooms when it's actually 500, guess I'm retarded. So our actual expenses with this is 2750 Zinnos, meaning we can get one more upgrade or put the remaning 250 in the bank as a safety in case we're less than profitable at first.

>>5058867
>1st level – the swank hotel – All the servicing rooms will have the plushest of sheets and fine, down mattresses. A proper upgrade from the boxspring mattresses and economic brown bedcovers that the brothel comes with.

or more security staff.
we could also save it.

will staff options be separate?

How do you mean by separate? Apart from the brothel options that come with staff, all the staff have already been picked.

I'll throw my vote in for 2nd Level of Tavern, LOCK IT IN HOMIE.
Here's my list of what I'd like to purchase.
2nd Level of Tavern- 1000 zinnos
1st Level of Bar- 250 zinnos
1st of Bedroom- 250 zinnos
1st Level of Casino- 250 zinnos
1st Level of Music- 250 zinnos
The Bathhouse- 500 zinnos
1st level of The Front- 250 zinnos
That all should be under 3000, there's a lot of investment in non-sexual work, but I see that as a way to attract people who can't afford or aren't interested in just sex.
The Bathhouse is a must though.
>>
>>5058926
Should I pick another color or not do that big a dump next time?
>>
>>5058931
No, it wasn't because of that. It's because I came back to check on the quest and see that an updated had been posted two hours ago with twenty decisions to make and not lot of time to make 'em.
But it's a slow quest, so I'm sure I'll get that cozy brothel I'm looking for.

Yes, because the conceit is that you would probably spend 1500 zinos even at base level, and Karlov would absolutely make sure you spend your half of the startup first before he would. (That's the lore reason. The real reason is that I just set it up like this)
>>
>>5058968
I honestly think we should hold off on going on all out on the advertisement until the brothel is in better shape. If we did go all out it'd be like advertising gourmet food and taking someone to Hometown Buffet- still good but not what we promised.
>>
>>5058869
Level 1 sign, gotta reel those customers in first and foremost!
>>
We could just focus on regular business and services without the sex with all theses options.
Bar, Bath, and Bed would work just fine, and very expensive Eye Candy for staff that can earn a large bonus on the side and we'd be set without having to run a bordello.

Shouldn't the front be lvl 2? Your last count was 2500, then with both levels of the sign it should be 3000.
>>
>>5059332
no, I didn't update the count after my last post
it was 2500 then casino level 2 then front lvl 1.

If that was up to me, I'd blow the casino thing for now and focus on better furniture, bigger bar and fabulous bedrooms. It's a brothel after all. All the additional services are a risk at this point.
Plus, fellas, do you remember what precinct we chose? Do you want to get in this kind of trouble peeps?

Your good for another few weeks at least. Probably new thread when you hit around 1000 posts as that starts to become slow for some potato PCs or phonefags.

Thanks everybody. And thanks for the patience. Weekends are always slow for me as well. In the meantime while I wait for all the activity to die down, maybe you guys can help me answer another question.

Is it time to get rid of the "LOCK IT IN HOMIE" rule?

We're getting a bit bigger now and a lot of people might just be glossing over the post for that rule. It's still in effect for the last choice, so we'll be spending the full 3000 of our life savings to get some staff and/or hoes.

Let me know what you guys think! Just trying to get some quality of life changes locked in etc.

After we get our crib settled in and our Homies on call.

Personally I would get rid of the one vote an hour (so people can change their mind). Also you could get rid of the lock it down but votes need to be in greentext
>>
>>5061396
Yes, get rid of it. It's an abnormal rule, just count greentext votes or votes by people that make it very obvious or explicit what they are voting for if they don't greentext.
>>
>>5061396
Yeah, switching votes to green text might be the better option.
Sad I missed the building but looks pretty cash money anyhow
>>
>>5062173
I feel you. I'm also really happy with how the building went. We've got everything we need (besides the dungeon, but I think that's just too risky for now.)

The Sex Dungeon is for taking pretty orphan and putting them drug regiments and hypnosis to be the perfect slaves. That comes later.

Very much looking forward to see this hustle going...

Hope this isn't dead op been a fun ride

I sure hope not. OP did say he was starting a new thread, and there's probably a lot of prepwork to do.
