Iron Lady Forge



Category: Bladesmithing and blacksmithing shop

Owner:

Location: Lilycove City

Description: Located several blocks from the famous Lilycove City department store, the Iron Lady Forge offers high-quality, hand-forged bladed goods for everyday use, as well as custom orders for specialized pieces. In the shop, customers can buy fixed-blade knives, folding knives, kitchen tools (ranging from knives and cleavers to utensils, pots and pans, and tongs), scissors, gardening implements, axes, hatchets, and other hardware crafted from stainless and high-carbon steel. The shop also provides knife-sharpening services, as well as knife handles and sheaths.

All goods on sale are strictly intended to be used as tools, not weapons, though for the right customer (specifically, current Rocket members), Aurelie is more than willing to take secret commissions for more unique, challenging, and dangerous creations that truly test her metalsmithing skills and creativity.

CROWNSHEAD STAG


Category: Restaurant
Owner: NPC (But open to claim if anyone wants it!)
Location: Sootopolis
Description: A hole-in-the-wall restaurant that serves authentic Galarian food! I've mentioned it in passing a few times IC of Temp picking up food from there. it's small and homey with that kind of cluttered and chipped feel you only get with family run places. The food is more home cooking style rather than fancy; so it's cheap and filling while still being delicious! I don't have much in mind for it otherwise so feel free to expand on any lore for it!

If you choose to claim this place as your own or make a character fill for it, you don't have to tell me! I just request they are a Galar native!
Relevant Links: I imagine it has this kind of vibe inside!

description: PRIMARINA is well-known in hoenn for providing first class service to members of the elite — should someone want a new item to add to their collection, or an entire new wardrobe, this is the place to be. of course, provided you have the cash. for decades, the fashion boutique have been where designers send their top-quality clothing to be worn by hoenn's elite class — whether it to be display the fashion season's current lineup, a new splash of color to one's wardrobe, or a complete do-over. the stylists who work there are experienced, polite and most importantly, equipped with a keen eye for fashion. it was previously owned by MADAME DUPONT who passed away in the wake of METENO 99943. investors were surprised to find the deed in the hands of one . how will the boutique fare under new ownership? only time will tell.

CLUB OLYMPUS

[break]
Category: hostess club & bar, neutral affiliation[break]
Owner: [break]
Location: mauville city[break]
Description: located in mauville’s entertainment district, club olympus is a mixed gender host club. catering to a wide range of clients, the club primarily offers services in-house. however, customers with particularly deep wallets may hire hosts or hostesses to accompany them to dinners, events, and other public outings.
cyril bollorr was the man of the hour today and he had specifically sought after leilani for today's festivities. he even paid extra so that she could be his personal arm candy for the day before whispering the sweet nothings of a potential bonus payment for her if she managed to 'wow' his guests..[break]
- leilani's description of off site work in the thread sun goes down
[break]
the hiring process is a bit unique in the sense that there are routine auditions to be selected as a host/hostess or security guard that occur a few times a month once one makes it through the auditions, an interview & screening process are scheduled before finally participating in the onboarding process after a brief period of training. if you'd like to apply, look for an audition near you and contact club olympus' support & services if you have any questions.

THE SNAKE PIT


Category: dive bar
Owner:
Location: slateport
Description: a dingy, hole-in-the-wall establishment with barely enough room to fit the bar, three booths, and a dusty grand piano. with no advertisements, no website, and no reviews, the snake pit is found only by word of mouth—or, if you're unlucky, by knowing the owner. regulars note that you shouldn't ask any questions of the woman who owns it—get your drinks, do your business, and get the hell out.

the snake pit caters specially towards the criminal underworld, and has a reputation for allowing business meetings that might otherwise get the cops called. the drinks are good, but not phenomenal. there is a kitchen through swinging double doors, but the snake pit serves no food. sometimes, if you have the right information, you may even be allowed access to the hidden menu—a catalogue of highly illegal drugs, manufactured, designed, and sold for a hefty price.
