Looking for RPers! [Character: Ophelia]

[LandStander]

TEA!

 

Would definitely patron.

 

But gotta make sure those Garleans pass like ships in the night, or the tea shop might end up collateral damage to bar brawls. *cough*Denn*cough*

 

Don't think you should be drinking anything near Garlean's anymore. Not after what happened last time :3

[E'irawen]

Wow, so many people. *^*  I'll definitely be trying to get all of you going. I may set up a linkpearl for the sake of easier RPing and what not, too. If you want one, just let me know!

 

I think today I'll be hunting for a place in Ul'dah to use as the teahouse. I don't know that there are really any empty places, though.

 

Does anyone have any suggestions?

[Kheni'to]

An RP tea house sounds awesome. Once you have found a place to set it up, make sure to let us all know the location in this thread or maybe a new thread. My character definitely would prefer tea over ale any day.

 

Actually, I'll scout Ul'dah for a location right NOW. It's 3am here, but I don't care!

 

Kheni'to can scout. Kheni'to can scout like a boss!

 

 

 

...How do bosses scout?

[Kheni'to]

Ul'dah is not as big as it seems at first. The place has a whole lot of nothing spots.

 

However, I did find two locations that might interest you. I wish I could have found an empty shop. I looked everywhere, tried everything and explored every nook and cranny of the place. There were no shops to take over. But maybe one of these two spots might suffice for you.

 

Spot 1

The best spot IMO was an unmarked NPC stall to the left of the Linkshell Distributor (His Left, your right if you are facing him) and straight outside the side exit/entrance to the Adventurers Guild. A group of Miqo'te dancers are close to it as well.

 

The NPC has no name or title and can't be targeted. She just stands there. The stall has a bunch of bags of grain or spices or something like that. It is possible to stand behind the stall and there is enough room to stand next to the NPC. She can simply be regarded as an employee. Some boxes sit behind the stall; they look like supplies.

 

The best part is, there is seating. Right in front of the stall there is a stone step that spans the length of a huge planter. Plenty of room for multiple people to sit. The /sit emote will make any character sit on the step as if it were a normal bench. I tested it myself. 

 

People can walk up to the stall, order tea and then have a seat right in front of the place. It is kinda crowded with all the NPCs nearby, and figuring out which players are customers and which players are just passing by might be a bit difficult at times.

 

 

Spot 2

I don't really see spot 2 as being better in any real way other than it is in a less crowded area.

 

While in front of the Adventurer's Guild with your character facing the gate of Nald, you would turn left and head through the open gateway (look up to see the hoisted gate, it is indeed a gateway). Immediately after passing through the gateway, you turn right. There is a supply alcove. The alcove has a rope fence/barrier that can be easily jumped over. It would be a good place for staff to be standing, and waiting to serve customers. The open area in front of the alcove is large and kinda looks like a patio area with no seating.

 

This would be a mall-type tea shop in which a customer could walk up and order tea, but would have to either stand there and drink it, or walk off with it.

 

 

I took pictures of the spots. Once I figure out how to post them on this forum, I will.
