As somebody who does spend quite a bit of time at HGH, there’s definitely a few things here that I feel like should be addressed.

1) The vast majority of the time, staff is dressed appropriately. Are there outliers for that? Sure are. Do they get a slightly snarky comment from Shelby? Sure do. But this isn’t HPD where there’s a vendor that we’re…[Read more]

Honestly Lolli is so perfect for this set up. She’s the perfect blend of comic book nerd and badass who would help this place thrive. She’s a well regarded, awesome RPer who really does her best to make interactions enjoyable for all parties – the good, the bad and the ugly. I would 100% love to see how she can further integrate this into people’s…[Read more]

I may be partial, but Dune is a tremendous RPer, writer, and general supporter of all things CD. I love how well the BBQ concept fits into his long established backstory, so it should be a seamless transition for him. He’s really fantastic at trying to make everybody feel welcomed, and I love the idea of even more active variety for not only food,…[Read more]

As one of the more recent “hit victims” of Wibur’s, I can honestly say that I’ve never had as much fun rping trying not to die as I did in that scene. I’ve been lucky enough to RP with him on a few scenes now, and he always brings some fantastic energy and creativity to them. I’m later on commenting on this than I’d like to be due to RL, but I am…[Read more]

This is awesome! I’ve been super lucky to get dragged (drugged?) into the super chaotic world of Gabe and Cain, and he’s a huge asset to the CD community. He’s always super creative and inventive with his writing, and he’s really great about trying to include people. His storylines are a lot of fun, and I can see him bringing a lot of great ideas…[Read more]

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!
