Empire Tattoo
By Kingston Varriale

TYPE: Official

SLURL: Laveau

BACKGROUND: As leader I would hold regular events like art contests and shows as well as holiday flash sales and byob block parties, hopefully with the help of other nearby businesses. My aim would be to drive rp within the shop and throughout the entire community. On the seedier side of things Empire Tattoo will be a place to bring trafficked girls to get tattooed/branded. Your secret is safe with us as long as you pay in cash. I will make an effort to be active at the shop so that new employees get to know my character and can grow their storylines as tattoo artists. My character will fit in as management because he is a passionate tattoo artist who will want a shop that stands out from any others.

UNIQUE: Empire Tattoo will stand out from the others by maintaining a close knit group of artists who go out of their way to rp within the community. We will have regular events open to the community as well as private parties for employees. I am open to working with other local businesses on cross-promotions and back alley deals. Empire Tattoo will look nice and shiny from the outside but if you look deeper you will find a seedy underbelly that caters to pimps and local gangs.

EXPERIENCE:I think my rp background will help me as a leader. I have a love for storytelling and I enjoy sharing stories with others. I have done a lot of rp throughout the years and I am always striving to learn new methods and ways to grow interesting story arcs with others. I am also an artist irl and have a real passion for all things art related. I'm very easy going and always open to listening to ideas.

IDEAS:I will engage new players by keeping an eye on the roster and welcoming them ooc'ly. From there I will try to get them into the shop and actively rp'ing with myself as well as the community. I welcome all levels of roleplayer from novice to expert.

OTHER:I'd like to have an art show as a grand re-opening and give prizes such as free and discounted tattoos. We will have a meet and greet to introduce the tattoo artists at the shop to the community and work with other local businesses like Freddie's and the sex shop to provide food and additional prizes.
