[Location]The Lollipop Stop

[Creeper]

Jitter and Tina developed the Lollipop Stop store in the Summer of 512 AV after traveling from Alvadas. The store itself is relatively large. This is because it is necessary to accommodate large Jamoura and still showcase all the sweets. The building is located on the Petal of Vibrant Essence, beside the Sweetest Stings. Upon entering the store, one would automatically be assaulted by the smell. Chocolate, mint, honey, and so many more different flavors cause the mouth to water. A square counter is directly in the middle of the store, almost always occupied by an employee. On top of the counter, lies the candy Tina normally reserves for children. Shelf by shelf, the sweets line the walls, row upon row. They are organized first by flavor, then by color. For example the candy made of mint would be organized from darkest to lightest. Near the entrance, barrels are filled to the rim daily with candy. One may also find the goods to make candy here. The store works hands in hand with Sweetest Stings for fresh honey.   Tina Name: Tina Race: Human, Mixed (Human/Vantha) DoB: Summer 20th, 482 AV PoB: Zeltiva Title: Candy Store Owner Skills: -Cooking (50) -Leadership (63) -Negotiation (36) -Gardening (26) -Food Preservation (33) -1 mark from Bala (Cultivation) [Appearance] Tina has the looks of both sides of her family. She has her height and curves from her mother, while she was blessed with the Vantha looks from her father. Tina towers over others at a surprising height of six foot. Jet black hair holds no highlights a true Vantha would have. Large eyes surrounded by multiple eyeshadows do not change color. A caramel complexion glows. Tina can usually be found looking like she just rolled out of a pantry: covered in flour or having some type of candy stuck to her. [Personality] Sugary and sweet like a honey sucker perfectly describes Tina. She is nice to the bone and tends to be very girly. Children have a soft spot for Tina and she often slips them a piece of candy upon their visits. Business is conducted professionally and she had been known to negotiate someone into buying more than enough sweets for their lifetime. Never one to tell a secret, especially her recipes!, Tina can come off as tight-lipped when needing information. She adores Jitter and there are rumors that the two are more than friends. [History] Tina was born in Zeltiva. There, she studied cooking and a variety of skills that come with it. Settling down at the tender age of twenty, she soon discovered her body was incapable of children. Her husband was left behind as she fled the miserable fate. Alvadas seemed the perfect place to settle: it was mysterious and she could keep her secrets close to her heart. Wanting to be close to the children but remain true to herself, Tina started planning for a candy shop. The plans were never set into motion, but she did meet Jitter on the way to perfecting her skills. Tina met a Jamoura one day and became enraptured by the race. In the Summer of 512 AV, the pair moved to the Spires to start the candy shop. Jitter, upon passing her skills in the kitchen, took over while Tina ran the store itself.   Jitter Name: Jitter Race: Kelvic (Hummingbird) DoB: Summer 18th, 511 AV PoB: Alvadas Title: Candy-Maker Skills: -Cooking (60) -Food Preservation (45) -Socializing (26) -Gardening (21) -Unarmed Combat (15) [Appearance] Jitter, in Hummingbird Form, weighs little more than two grams. A line of white decorates his all black body, from his back leg to his hip and down his tail in a stripe. In human form, Jitter carries over many traits. His hair is pure black, as are his eyes. He is lanky and appears to have no muscle. A pointed nose hints at Jitter's animal side. Strangely, he seems to have no sense of smell, but can see exceptionally well. Jitter's heart beats three times as fast as a normal human's. [Personality] Jitter is a ball of energy. He is always moving. Whether this is from the constant sugar intake (nearly eight times an hour!) or a trait of his Kelvic nature, is unknown. When a customer comes into the store, Jitter has been known to entrap them in a gossiping conversation. Jitter is easily bribed by anything sugary. He adores flowers, candy, and flying. Though easy-going, Jitter is extremely protective of his bondmate, Tina. As the two have been bonded since Jitter left the nest, literally, he has picked up a few traits from her. These include having affection for children and keeping secrets to himself. [History] Born in Alvadas, Jitter made friends with a wide variety of people. He was known for being able to deliver news quickly and efficiently. The gossiping about such news was ignored. He knew something about almost everyone. Jitter's obsession with sugar first brought him into contact with Tina. The Vantha female had been trying to develop a new candy and spotted the hummingbird trying to sneak closer. Using the sugary sweet as a bribe, she convinced him to stay around and learn from her. Given Jitter had only been out of the nest for less than half a season, he soon grew attached. The pair bonded before Jitter was a season old. The pair moved to the Spires and opened a candy store in the Summer of 512 AV. Jitter is the cook.   Employment And Training Training Available Cooking Food Preservation Gardening Employment Clerk 3gm/Day Cook 2gm/Day Gardener 1gm/Day   Prices Tools Preserving Kit (Basic) 5 GM Preserving Kit, High Quality 55 GM Toolkit, Cook/Chef 10 GM Toolkit, Herbalist 20 GM Preservative Fluid 30 GM Candy (Most common) Candy Price Price per Barrel Candied Apple Slices 6cm/apple 3gm Candied Worms (Summer/Fall) 4cm/lb 2gm Candied Dates 5cm/lb 5gm Candied Cherries, Pitted 1gm/lb 50gm Candied Cherries, Whole 2gm/lb 100gm Candied Pear Slices 3gm/pear 150gm Candied Beetles, Small 2gm/twenty 100gm Candied Beetles, Medium 3gm/twenty 150gm Candied Beetles, Large 4gm/twenty 200gm Mint Sticks 3Cm/stick 2gm Mint Chunks 4Cm/bite-sized chunk 2gm Mint-Dipped Cherries 5gm/lb 250gm Sour Lemon Drops 3Cm/drop 2gm Hard Molasses 2Cm/chunk 1gm Salted Walnuts 2gm/lb 100gm Salted Cashews 3gm/lb 150gm Salted Banana Slices 1 gm/banana 50gm Chocolate, Light 8gm/lb 400gm Chocolate, Dark 8gm/lb 400gm Flavored Chocolate 9gm/lb 450gm Chocolate Covered Cherries 5gm/lb 250gm Chocolate Covered Grasshoppers (Seasonal) 5gm/lb 250gm Chocolate Covered Ants (Seasonal) 1gm/lb 50gm Honey-Suckers 5cm/thumb-sized drop 3gm Honey-Dipped Pear Slices 9sm/pear 45gm Honey Dipped Spider, Small 5 sm/thumb-sized drop 25gm Honey-Dipped Spider, Large 9 sm/thumb-sized drop 45gm Honey-Dipped Mosquito 70cm/lb 35gm Hardened Ladybug 5sm/twenty-ladybugs 25gm Honey-Dipped Crickets 5sm/twenty-crickets 25gm Bitter Syrup-Covered Moth 10cm/handful 1gm Sweet Syrup-Preserved Grasshoppers (Seasonal) 5sm/twenty-grasshoppers 25gm Sweet Syrup-Dipped Mushrooms (Seasonal) 9sm/lb 45gm Syrup-Covered Sunflower Seeds 2cm/lb 1gm Moderator's Note: Hiring requires Moderation, everything else requires no Moderation. *Full Credit to Lixue
