Evermark Underground: RPG Brothel Management

I really want to get Filla done with her training already but fine, a major donation is major.

[X] Plan Libertine Aura
 
Mist 1901
You pull up a finely carved chair beneath the saferoom's heavy wards, and your senior staff crowd in close around the oak table for your monthly meeting.

"First things first, Edie. Congratulations on managing the installation of the new sign; it's astonishingly eye-catching and will definitely drive business."

She does a little bow at her place at the table, clearly flattered.

"Moving right along, however. Holly, how did the costume-jewellery purchase go?"

"It's all been organized," he says. "Though it's all polished glass and semiprecious stone, I took the time to pick styles that emulated precious jewellery, so they should look very nice until you get up close."

"Alas, there are some drawbacks to thrift."

"There are."

You check off the item on your mental list, and continue. "The donation to the libertines went off without a hitch, though I had the impression they were surprised by it - both by the fact I was donating and by the size of it."

Varielle smiles. "That says they don't know you too well."

"It does, doesn't it? And since you spoke up, Varielle - what did the contract magicians have to say about the bust?"

"They were grateful we took their advice, and they offered to help us any time we needed it."

"Huh. Not what I expected from an organization that's still being hunted. Still, at least that reinforces that we made the right decision."

"It really does, doesn't it?" Varielle smiles at you.

"Anyway. Leah, how's the band doing?"

"Still practicing like mad, Mistress."

"Glad to hear it. And we have an appointment, don't we?"

"Indeed we do. I'll meet you at the shrine."



The last time you met Leah in the shrine, it was a smoky, inscense-filled room full of ritual candles and inscribed circles on the floor, all half-lit by flickering candlelight. It's still that now, but there's something more: a sense of primal need, like the heat of a distant fire beneath you, below you. You can feel the sea inside you shift in its presence, warmed and yet somehow wary.

"Huh."

Leah turns around, and smiles. "I thought you might notice something. That's Vansaga power, kept deep and rooted by this shrine. It's the power I channel to perform miracles and to heal. And now, you can feel it too. You've become sensitive thanks to your Unfanged training.

"I can't teach you more, but I can show you. You'll have to participate in a ritual with me - yes, a sex ritual, I don't have any rituals that aren't sexual - but if you do, I'll be able to show you the interaction of the energy inside you and inside me, and the way that it's harnessed to produce real effects. So what do you say?"

[ ] Participate in Leah's Ritual.
[ ] Refuse to participate, but ask to watch one.
[ ] You're not interested in either participating or watching.

How come two different actions for doing a cellar are in different categories?
 
[X] Plan: Ceverra and Favours
-[X] Participate in Leah's Ritual.
-[X] Search for more contacts who sell goods & services under the table. (IE, that you can pay in dirty money.)
-[X] Search for contacts among the Ceverra.

-[X] Go down to the docks and purchase "lost" or confiscated cargoes from the Port Authority on the sly.

There's no reason not to participate in the ritual, if that's how Leah is going to show us what she can.

Other than that, looking for more contacts amongst the Ceverra now that we are Kashava should be fruitful. Along with using some of the favours we've accumulated to further upgrade our establishment.

I also want to see what we can get at the docks from the confiscated goods, I imagine it will be slightly random and seasonal, based on what is coming into port.
 
[X] Plan magic upgrades
- [X] Participate in Leah's Ritual.
- [X] Install silk in a business room to make it a VIP room. 3 Bolts Silk, 30 Clean Æ.
- [X] Put in some planter boxes outside the store. 10 Æther.

Hopefully, doing the ritual should be enough to get a sense of more about the aura changes.

M. Estellé already watched one ritual, between Leah and Edie. Maybe it's time for the next step?

We can keep refitting businesses rooms into VIP rooms. More refined and more profit.

The planter boxes option. It's there. Let's take it.

We don't have enough for a new "donation" to House Galero. It's a good time to keep educating Filia.

"No, Libertines, I hadn't forgotten you… Why, of course I would generously donate to the cause. Why wouldn't I? We are on the same team, after all. Although now that you mention it… Well, there's something you could do for me! If you don't mind, of course."


EDIT – Ninja'd! Twice! Oh well, I guess my plan is slightly different. Now there's plenty to choose from!
 
[X] Plan: Keep Building

Personally I suspect the neon sign clashes with our classy aesthetic, but maybe things are different at this tech level. I'd like to take tea again sometime soon.
 
[X] Plan: Keep Building

I am intrigued by the chance to purchase cargoes from the port authority, but I think doing Aura Cultivation this month goes well with the special ritual.
 
[X] Plan: Keep Building


Evenstar, could options be added to spend Dirty Æther to anonymously support charitable causes?
Orphanage? Schools for the poor? Women's shelters? Soup kitchens?
This could be a way to improve the city, get additional sources of gossip/information, and keep an eye open for recruits.
Then Clean Æther could be publicly donated to improve the business's public standing. It's something many famous madams did IRL.

just caught up. Can't say i really understand whats going on sometimes, but i enjoyed it nonetheless. Is Evermark a previously established setting? Details and background seemed a bit light on the ground.
 
Raven 1901
((CW: lesbian ritual sex))

"I'll participate in your ritual," you say to Leah, narrowing your eyes through the smoke in the room.

Immediately, something in the air shifts. You sense more than see the smoke gathering around Leah, cloaking her like a mantle. The sea inside you gathers like a wave, but finds no purchase in the Vansaga-dedicated room; you feel it falling back, seemingly defeated.

Leah takes her shirt off, and throws it on the floor. She points at the bed in the corner of the room, a circle inscribed around it. "There," she says. "Strip nude and get on the bed."

You follow her instructions, slipping off your gown and sitting at the bedside. She takes off her pants as well, standing nude amid the incense-smoke, and a thrill of anticipation rolls down your spine as she approaches.

"So," she says. "This is a ritual of contest. My skill versus your skill, and the winner's god claims the territory. You'll lose. Just enjoy it, and try to keep your wits about you while you do."

You smile, and find a hint of challenge in it that you hadn't expected to. "Alright."

Leah comes over to you, and sits on the bedside beside you. She leans in, and you share a kiss, water touching fire, and you can practically feel the steam. She kisses your lips, your cheek, your chin, and then she starts nosing into your neck.

Retreating further onto the bed with a little crab-scuttle seems to be the thing to do, but Leah follows you, gentle but insistent, taking kiss after kiss from you and giving nothing in return. It feels as if your entire body is shrouded in steam, all hot and sweaty and wet, and something in you surrenders. Leah comes down, and kisses at your breast, and fire catches in your heart and you ignite.

"Please," you moan. "Please, I need it…"

Leah smiles at you, and slowly caresses your skin, and you realize that you've been utterly backed into a corner. Everything is up to Leah now.

She presses you down into the covers, and kisses you again. Her hands roam down your belly, across your breasts. She smirks.

"I win," she says. "Now to savour it."

You pull her in closer as she starts to tease at your sex, sitting up in the bed to meet her, little gasps leaping from your mouth to tumble into the bedsheets. You crave her, you need her, and you dig your hands into her hair and you half-remember a throw and suddenly you're atop her, rolled over completely with her pinned between your straddled legs. Your whole body is thrumming with a drumbeat of arousal, a flame of wantdesiretakeworship, and some distant, detached part of your mind notes that you're tapping Vansaga power. Flame, like starlight. You tangle Leah up in the bedsheets, then come in to gently but inexorably kiss her on the nose. Your hands stray down to near her sex.

"Need I do more?" you pant.

"Fuck, I want you to do more."

"Then let's. Together."

"Together."

You free her arms, to let her touch you as you touch her, and you work together, water and fire, sweat standing out on your bodies as if you were in a sauna, feeling each other down to the last detail. Her fingers work inside you as yours thrust into her; you kiss firmly, bodies pressed close, and she works you closer even as you work her closer. Your breaths come heavy, panting. You call her name, and she yours, and you can feel her clench even as you clench around her fingers. It's as if the two of you are reflections of each other; and just as each kiss, caress, and motion of your hips is echoed, so too does your orgasm roll through the both of you at once.

Afterwards, you cuddle up together in bed, and soon sleep. Both of you are too exhausted to talk, and your voices are raw from shouting each other's names anyway.

Analysis will have to happen another time. But you did something that ought to have been impossible.

"Holly, how did the silk installation go? Is our second VIP room up and running?"

He nods. "Everything went according to plan, and the second VIP room is getting similar traffic to the first."

"Edie, what about the planter boxes outside the store?"

"They were easy to fix up. All I needed was a few strong hands and a gardener, and we have plenty of both of those."

"Varielle, how did the cellar go?"

"Quite smoothly. Your Libertine friends were both quick and discreet."

"Leah, what about the Cauducite priest?"

"Been and gone, and left their blessing right in the middle of the restaurant where everyone can see it," Leah grouses. "I fon't know who recommended him but he was an annoying little toad. I was happy to get rid of him."

"Someone's grumpy today."

"Yeah, yeah. We'll talk about it later, alright?"

"Alright. Filia, we have another lesson, arr you ready?"

"Yep!" Filia smiles. "Last one this month, right?"

You nod.

Should a Caducite Blessing be added to the treasury with the others?

Anyway, my priorities for this turn are to debrief with Leah and check out the smuggled goods from the harbor. Maybe we'll score some silk, or perhaps magical items...who knows? I'm excited to take a dip in the mystery box.

Just generally works on building up more connections and infrastructure. Our dirty money could use a bit more spendability, and want to keep clean burn rate relatively low when we can.

If we can get that Writ from the noble house, that's a massive political bludgeon to use on anyone trying to shut us down right?
