I absolutely love this idea! It opens up the door for some really great storylines and adds another layer of authenticity to the community. Super excited to see how this turns out!

This is perfect for CD! Definitely fits in with the overall theme, how have we gone without one for this long??

I was super for bringing the NPC box back (as per my earlier comments), but I’m gonna be honest – Shelby’s been in HGH for the last two days and the HGH staff has been amazing. There’s been somebody here pretty much the whole time, and they’ve been super engaging in RP, which is a huge change from my prior experiences. So if it’s going to keep…[Read more]

I’m on board with bringing the NPC charts back too. There’s only been 2 times in the last year that I’ve walked into HGH for an emergency that there was a doctor available, which is fine because people don’t have to work all the time. But the NPC charts allowed for the injuries and such to happen and still get the medical files without having to…[Read more]

You mention that this will be different from the spice shop in that this will focus only on tarot readings and such. I know that given the setting in Louisiana and the connections commonly made to supernatural occurrences (and the fact that CD has done a sim-wide event of spirits roaming free last year), is this aspect of roleplay open? The…[Read more]

I love that tarot is something that could be offered at multiple locations! My guess would be that this shop and Vudu will probably draw different crowds to be honest, which I think is great because it’s a way to get more people involved in this type of RP – I would guess Vudu would continue to draw more of the darker side of the RP than this would.

Thank you so much (times 2!). I really wanted the concept to be closely rooted in both the French history and the occult history that’s so present in Louisiana, even down to the name. And Shelby would welcome Sofia with open arms if she was getting back on the path!

I agree – I think it would provide a good alternative to Vudu. It would be almost like the light to counter Vudu’s dark. Two halves of something that are fundamentally based in the same vein but are still very different in presentation so that it can attract different crowds. Again, in no way shape or form is this designed to take anything away…[Read more]

I love these ideas! I’m really hoping to find ways to tie in with a lot of the other businesses and be really involved in any sim wide events, anything varying from palm reading to straight up seances!

Yes! I would absolutely love to coordinate with other characters and gangs/factions to give some dire warnings. I think there’s a lot of fun ways that this shop could be interwoven into story lines, and I’m definitely open to hearing any ideas. Thank you guys for all the feedback and support so far!

So I think I can answer both of those questions at the same time. When I first started toying with the idea, I was thinking about it being more of a magic shop in general – crystals, books, tools, custom spell writing. But I got concerned at that point that it was stepping on Vudu’s toes by being that broad. So I narrowed it down substantially t…[Read more]

Thanks Caliea! I don’t think of this as any sort of replacement for Vudu or meant to displace any of their clientele, especially because RP seems to be picking up there lately. But I love the idea of having variety and options in the city, especially in an sim that’s based on an area so deeply steeped in mysticism and witchcraft.  I’m a big…[Read more]

So it could go a variety of different ways, depending on how the character wants it honestly. We could do just generic tarot readings if they want something that is sort of blanket and vague, which could apply to any character and is open for their interpretation (for example, you’ll find love with a handsome stranger or avoid bad business deals…[Read more]

Thank you for the feedback! So the idea of this is definitely a little difference on what Vudu Spice offers. This would be a lot more specific to just readings other than anything else, so it would definitely offer a different experience. I also believe that, in a place like Hathian, it would make sense to have more than just one business that…[Read more]

We go to Super Chopsticks fairly often and we don’t RP at the university. The restaurant is a fun way to generate traffic on the other sims!

This sounds like so much fun!! I can’t contribute food but I will totally contribute eating.

I love the rain occasionally, it adds realism, but it’s been super excessive lately. Is there any way to at least scale back on it?

I’ve been roleplaying with Miketh in various environments for the last 6 years, and I can confidently say that he is one of the most dedicated people I’ve ever had the chance to be involved in. He takes his commitments seriously, both to the people and institutions that he works and interacts with. He’s also never short on fun, creative, and…[Read more]
