This lazy agricultural settlement rests on the swampy shores of the Middle Suvan at the delta of The Kenash River. The River's slow moving bayou waters have bred a different sort of people - rugged, cultured, and somewhat violent. Sprawling plantations of tobacco and cotton grow on the outskirts of the swamp in the rich Cyphrus soils, while the city itself curls around the bayou and spawns decadence and sins of all sorts. Life is slower in Kenash, but the lack of pace is made up for in the excesses of food and flesh in a city where drinking, debauchery, gambling, slavery, and overbearing plantation families dominate the landscape.

Grown from their cocoa trees that dot their plantation, the Draer Family has started up a chocolate shop on Dry Island. Though they do export quite a bit of their product, a few of the members have taken to creating the delicious treat for locals as well. All the chocolate is made on location, and though the store originally began to sell simple creations, just bars and such, the owner’s artistic skill has grown. Now it is quite possible to buy an edible work of art, for a price of course.

On first sight, the chocolate shop appears quite simple, with plain stone walls and no windows. The double doors, however, are usually flung wide open, and the smell emanating from them does as just a good a job at advertising for the building as the large sign above the entrance. Inside, the scent of chocolate grows stronger, coming from the numerous products that line the walls. In the back, there is a workshop, with all the tools and materials required for creating the tasty chocolates. The door between these two rooms, however, is usually kept secure, so none of the other families can snatch the recipes for creating the delicious treats.

The store sells a variety of different products, from a basic cube to a slab filled with nuts or bits of fruit. Currently, there are two choices of chocolate flavors - milk and dark - with rumors that additional flavors are yet to come! Dark is a bit more expensive, but tastier. It is quite possible to order a personalized creation, and this is often done for celebrations and such. The more beautiful and detailed the creation, the more expensive. For example, a chocolate plaque celebrating an accomplishment, which could then be eaten afterwards.

 
Staff NPCs
Image Name: Kasha Draer
Race: Human, Svefra
DoB: The 92nd of the Winter Season, 485 AV
PoB: Kenash, Cyphrus Region
Title: Chocolatier
Skills: Cooking 71; Carving 57; Negotiation 43; Engraving 28
Gnosis: 1 Oceanus Mark of Laviku
Additional Info: Having never really taken to politics, Kasha always enjoyed the more creative side of things. She took to cooking at a young age, and, along with her brother, began to experiment with chocolate. After proving to their parents that they were good at this trade, and responsible enough to run their own business, they were supported and able to start up ‘Drear Chocolates’. Kasha is quite friendly and bouncy, and her chocolate art has more of a flowing touch. Still, she drives a hard bargain and is generally the one who works the front of the shop.

ImageName: Sorus Draer
Race: Human, Svefra
DoB: The 92nd of the Winter Season, 485 AV
PoB: Kenash, Cyphrus Region
Title: Chocolatier
Skills: Carving 71; Cooking 69; Engraving 56
Gnosis: 1 Oceanus Mark of Laviku
Additional Info: Twin of Kasha, he and his sister have always worked well together. Being similar at most things, when put together, the two create an excellent team. Unlike his sibling, however, Sorus is more reserved and quiet, enjoying the process of creating chocolate. Though less artistic than Kasha, he is more precise and delicate, good at perfecting repetitive tasks. In general, he keeps to the workroom, occasionally popping out to restock shelves.
