SHOP QUESTIONS
BASICS AND INITIAL UNDERSTANDING

User Image


XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Is this shop steampunk?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXNO.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Will these have custom stages?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXYes! Each stage is different and each pet is unique.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX When is this going to open?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXWhenever I'm done with stuff. I work 40 hours a week on average until the busy-season is over. I'm not going to rush this thing.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX If I get hired as a guest artist/manager/rp moderator/etc. do I get a free pet?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXNot if that's all you're applying for. 8I That's rude. I want you to apply because you want the job.

GUARDIANS AND USERS
THE KEY PLAYERS

User Image


XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX What kind of animal can my Guardian be?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXAlmost anything really. Currently the only restricted types of animals are found in the quest section of the guild.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Can we have magical animals for our guardians?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXYes. I'm limiting dragons of any type pretty much indefinitely though.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXThey would just be so BIG that it's hard for me to image more than one or two off the rare event.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX So, User's have magic?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXYes. All users have some form of magic. Be it some elemental magic, or the ability to manipulate
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXaether into machines.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Do Users and Guardians get special jobs? Or can they be regular merchants when not protecting their people?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXAll Users/Guardian teams have their proper ranks. See the classes section in the info section of the
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXguild. There may be trades that each coupling can pursue but it wouldn't have any importance to the
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXthread, just your IC development. If your User/Guardian is a good tailor, that means nothing as far as
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXmissions go.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Are Users and Guardians common? Do they get special treatment?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXSince the Sundering nearly a century before the start of the B&C, User and Guardians have been born
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXin fewer and fewer numbers. They are now most definitely the minority of the population. In fact the pets
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXin this shop are the first new generation of Guardians in a few years. So yes, they get a bit of special treatment.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Are Guardians stronger than Users as far as magic goes?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXIt's sort of a coin toss. Generally a Guardian is viewed as stronger, only because they have access to
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXtwo types of magic, their own, and their User's. So instead of just a water mage, they're now a water
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXand lightning mage (storm creation basically).

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX How long does it take for Guardian's to be born from the Tree or Forge?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXA Guardian can take anywhere from a few minutes, to an hour or two. The longest in record would
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXhave been four hours for a lemur to crawl its way out of the forge.

WORLD AND CULTURE
SETTING DETAILS AND MISCELLANEOUS FACTS

User Image


XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Is there a type of currency?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXMostly coin-based and value is denoted by shape. The more sides, the higher the value. It's a combination of
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXboth Faction's old currency systems so materials may vary. But it goes from a simple circle coin to a larger
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX8-sided piece. Just think of it as a simple copper, silver, gold, platinum system. ( 0-4-6-8 )

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Do Users have to go to school?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXYes. All Users attend the academy when their magic begins to manifest. Usually in childhood, sometimes at
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXpuberty, very rarely in adulthood. All students begin their "assessments" when their class turns 17. Some may
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXnot be assessed till their twenties. Once you leave the school at 18 if you're still without Guardian you simply
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXcontinue training in real-life internships.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Are their city crests or colors?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXYes. This is hit or miss with the Homunculi Faction, but they're beginning to fall into Mistwick's traditions, adding
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXin their own. Mistwick's city crest will be on display eventually, once I make one. As far as colors go: Medic and
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXWarriors tend to use deep reds, even just as an accent or a band on their arms, Mage-Warriors (battle mages etc.)
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXand scouts wear deep navy and saphire blues, scientists and scholars are gold, archivists are often seen in gold as
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXwell. Users without Guardians or those not yet assessed or given a job(class) are seen in greens.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX What is science like? How advanced are they?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXGeneral antibiotics are about as far as you get. They're in the renaissance of their science. The only reason they
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXhave so much awesome stuff if due to magic-tech.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Are Guardians ever born as twins? Like people? Can one person get stuck with twins?
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXNo, a User can't have 2 Guardians, ever. But with twins, this phenomenon is seen. They usually have similar magic/essences
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXthey're attracted to. They also usually get Assessed at the same time. The Guardains born are often very similar in build and
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXshow some of the same design elements. They'll grow and develop as different people, much like real twins, but they'll always
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXbe similar-enough to be seen as siblings. (By similar build I mean one may be a greyhound, the other a whippet or borzoi. One
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXmay be a red parrot, the other may be an african grey).
