@ H, BL & V<br/><br/>Sorry, I wasn't clear.<br/><br/>As soon as the scene where Veronica "apologises" to Natalya is concluded, I'm going to create a male NPC "on the fly", to bring Veronica into Emperium's "Goods In" area where he will examine her (rather intimately), and decide to contact  Ryuuji.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=141836.msg6446746#msg6446746">Quote from: BlackLightning on 17-06-2012, 02:35:48</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">@Chrystal: Sure, I don't mind you making a male clerk NPC. However, if his role is mostly just to receive goods delivered from the store suppliers then I don't see the need to make him stand out, unless you're thinking of having him "secretly" inspecting the goods / slaves. <br/><br/>@Haibane: As the store manager, Ryuuji deals with everything that is involved in his store, from human resource to supplies count and warehouse management to writing monthly report to the main branch about the store's growth financially and statistically. Each floor of his store will have their own floor manager who basically watches their own turf to make sure that the "corporate slaves" and employees on their floor are doing their jobs properly and they will report to him. Slaves are the only product that Ryuuji will be personally involved in the sales activity, mostly because they are the only merchandise that are available to be negotiated / discussed (Though mostly its just him telling the potential buyers the reason why the slaves are so expensive)<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>My question was not actually to do with that at all...<br/><br/>Rather it was to do with this:<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=141836.msg6375264#msg6375264">Quote from: Haibane on 01-06-2012, 20:41:44</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">2) Linda Tuchamba goes to the Nice BAF office with her latest cargo of abducted slaves. She gets rid of all of them except Veronica Dowling who's a prize bitch nobody wants. Linda brings her to Monaco and tries to sell her.<strong> This sub-plot can include Rayn Assad, Ryuu Adam and Kaelyn Richelieu who all may or may not have a client for Veronica.</strong> Ricardo Reyes will be the eventual buyer - who from we do not yet know - but <strong>we can draw this out a while</strong> and there is plenty of scope for poor Veronica to suffer during the various sales negotiations. It is possible that Julien Sabatier will get wind of this and start making his own enquiries. Players involved to please confirm. ATLAS, ELIAS, REIA, CHRYSTAL, BLACKLIGHTNING, PHOTO/SOPHIE, DASHENKA - roles confirmed.<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>Blue emphasis is mine.<br/><br/>Which of the above characters are looking to get involved right now? I'm happy to wing this, but what I don't want to do is create a continuity error by mentioning a character who's player then posts that their character walks off...<br/><br/>Players above have all confirmed their participation in the sub-plot, I would like to know what form that participation will take and whether it is going to be soon, or in a day or so (game time)?<br/><br/>Vin, thanks for the thought, but not actually necessary. I was going to post something like this:<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">"Let me in!"</div><div class="spoiler_body">I waited for a few moments for the door intercom to be answered, holding tight to the lead attached to Red's collar. At last a male voice said, "Salut?"<br/><br/>I replied in French "Linda Tuchamba. I have some merchandise that Monsieur Adam may be interested in?"<br/><br/>"I'll be the judge of that". The shutter door rattled open, revealing a typical loading dock scattered with crates, cartons, palettes, bundles, boxes and cages. Several beefy and unattractive slaves were wheeling pump trucks and sack trolleys about and there was a youngish man driving a forklift. But right in front of me stood a lump of beef on two legs. Red hair that sprouted at unnatural angles from random parts of his head, piercing green eyes and a bulbous red nose topped a body that wouldn't be out of place on the front row of the French scrum.<br/><br/>"Good morning Florian." I greeted him, and tugged on the lead, bringing Red to my side. "There she is, what do you think?"<br/></div></div><br/>That's just a sample of what I was planning.<br/><br/>Oh and I'm glad someone has good taste in cars. E-Type Jag FTW
