Destiny City was a metropolis that never slept. During all hours of the day and night, the city was alive and bustling. Even miles away, the sounds of the city carried on the wind. Forests hugged the city and hills of all sizes peppered the land the further out it went.

Destiny City was as much of a tourist trap as any major city could be expected to be--only, there was something a little extra special about it.

Destiny City was full of magic. So much so that their visitors came from all across the state, the country, the world.

The galaxy.

Atop a hill a mile and a half out of the major city and with a perfect view of the towering skyscrapers, someone had set up shop. A simple table booth covered with a dark purple tablecloth, and several oddly shaped trinkets and baubles were on display. A briefcase rested against the table, just out of sight, and close to the chair of their visitor.

A stranger sat, fingers laced and elbows propped atop the table, and watched the city glimmer in the night.

From out here, it was easy to see little lights falling during the meteor shower. He had arrived with the first shooting star.

His eyes twinkled almost as much as the stars in the sky.

He had no energy signature of his own, but then, he didn’t need one. He’d been to this planet and others, and it only took a little help to get his customers running. On the edge of the table, closest to him, a little box was open and a tiny star hovered a few inches above the open box. It had an unmistakable aura--and it was calling to anyone who cared to listen.

Unlike much of the universe, Earth was bustling with life.

Business would be good.

INFORMATION AND RULES

A strange alien has appeared in Destiny City and has set up what appears to be a stall of goods. He has an array of strange, unfamiliar items. Some are beautiful, some are old, some are bland and some seem simply indescribable. He treats all of his wares like treasures and waits for visitors to trade with. He will do business with anyone, from any faction--Order, Chaos, or civilians. He moves location frequently so it makes it impossible to ambush him. His beacon operates on different frequencies and doesn’t always affect the same person twice--or even at all. His intentions are unclear except for one thing: he wants you to retrieve something for him in exchange for something from his collection.

If your character has participated in the prompt to find a star fragment, they can visit the stall!

To interact with the character you must fill out the following form and send it to The Space Cauldron along with the link to a roleplay start using the prompt below!


Form:
Quote:
Character: (Link to the journal of the character you will be using; your character may be powered or unpowered for this!)
Information: (What topics most interest your character and what information would they be tempted by?)
Item: (Please describe an item you would like your character to find; if you cannot think of anything specifically, some general ideas of things of interest can be used and staff will come up with an item for you. These items can be artifacts from their original homeworld or wonder (even if corrupted presently) and can be identifiable either by an intense feeling or by having the same symbol. These items may have a passive magical ability related to something in your character’s past world. If it is to have a magical ability it should be something subtle, such as being warm to the touch, having a magical, nostalgic aroma, or being reminiscent of your character’s sphere or planetary abilities. These items are not powerful and do not function like IC RP Items or Permanent items. If your character has a close bond to another character, with their player’s permission, you may instead find an item that belongs to that character. All items must be small enough to fit comfortably on a six-foot long table.)
Roleplay Link: (Please start a new roleplay quoting the following prompt in your first post as well as your response to it; you may do group roleplays if you don’t want to do a one on one, however all participating players need to be listed and need to fill out this form)


RP Start Prompt:
Quote:
It was already late in the evening but the merchant seemed unfazed by the passing of time. He sat, poised and elegant, watching the world around him. He didn’t seem bored but he sat, fingers laced atop the table; below it, he kept his toe tapping to some silent tune in his head. He was tall, by human standards, though while sitting down he didn’t seem particularly threatening. If you didn’t look at his face.

He had graceful features--sharp and refined. His chin and nose tapered to a point, giving him an air of sophistication, but that, combined with his slitted eyes and pointed teeth, there was something undeniably predatory about him. He watched with a hungry gaze and a mischievous, nearly sinister smile. His ears were pointed and were prominent despite being tucked behind his vibrant, multi-colored hair. The most intrusive feature that indicated there was something not human about him were the curling horns protruding from his temples and the oil-slick black scales that brushed his cheeks and forehead. He was well dressed, in a fashion obviously otherworldly, and seemed to enjoy dressing himself up in glistening gemstones.

His stall was somehow both simple and overwhelming; it was only a table with a deep purple cloth over it, but scattered neatly atop it were an array of items that seemed to carry some magical weight to them.

He did not seem intimidated in the slightest and, upon noticing a customer approaching, he smiled.

He did not rise to meet them nor adjust his position in the slightest. He followed them with his fierce eyes.

In a silky voice, he greeted, “Welcome.”
