A bit late, and the wrong holiday-was supposed to do one at thanksgiving but didn't have time, so instead, here's one for Valentines.

Rules are simple again.

Just follow basic forum rules.
Stay in whatever character(s) you come as.
Have fun.

Next post begins the story.

In the port of Vaasburg, a large festival celebrating St. Valenine is underway. Countless people, from lords to peasants have gathered to celebrate. Local Brothels are having sales, countless food stalls have been set up and folks are looking forward to a massive dance scheduled for later-many looking for a partner for said dance. In a very shabby, cheap looking stall, a young robed woman with pale white skin, dark black hair and dark red eyes sits, looking absolutely miserable as she peddles her wares. A large sign next to her reads- Veera's Witch Stall-Here for all your needs- Now carrying Love potions!.

The woman occasionally shouts to folks who seem desperate "Only a loser would go to the Dance alone-Get a potion and score a date. 100 gold!." As she mutters to herself disgusted "the bloody things I gotta do for some coin cause of that wretched B****".

A tall handsome woman appears at the stall. She is dressed in expensive finery and lace. Wearing large flashy jewels on her hands and ears..she is well-groomed and is surrounded by a number of what appear to be soldiers or guardsmen. She looks intently at the woman behind the stall. And continues to stare without saying a word.

Veera looks to the woman and says in an annoyed voice

You know it's rather rude to stare. If you want something or have something to say, say it or leave. Unless your looking to get yourself cursed.

The tall woman smiles gently as her eyes softened. Still, she does not speak.

Veera mumbles under her breath as she ducks under her stall and starts rummaging through her inventory

Why do I always attract the weirdos. Let's see if I got anything to blind her to teach a lesson not to stare.

After a few moments she peeks back up and counts the guards before ducking back down

Might be better if I just leave. Business has been crap anyway.

Veera quickly gets out, packs up her stuff and starts walking to the tavern, calling over to a pair of men nearby

Hey, Brian, Carl wanna go have a drink with me at the tavern? Could use some company.

The 2 men shrug and walk along with her, as Veera keeps an eye out on the mystery lady to see if she follows.

A red headed man with a big bushy beard walks into the tavern.

Aye, tis a good day, ale for everyone on me! lets get some food on the way aswell, and have a great feast.

Veera smiles as she sits down and gets a tall glass of ale. Brian and Carl both toast to the red headed man. Brian shouts to him

So what's your name mate? I'm Captain Brian, this here be my first mate Carl, and the woman is a nasty horrible witch named Veera. But, she be me sister in law, so I'm sadly stuck with her.

Veera smacks Brian and shouts

Feelings mutual. But thanks for the drinks mate.

Hello, Im Owen! fine lookin crew, and youre welcome for the drinks.

he shouts back as raising his mug.

Veera takes a swig of Ale as she thinks before speaking

You know, since most folks will be at the dance later tonight, It would be a good time to hit up the local mansions for some good loot. You wanna join up Owen? Had a cousin who was supposed to join and help, but he ain't here. If you would prefer to not do something illegal though, I have a different idea to score some loot that's legal, but a bit harder. Cousin was meant to help with that job too. Lazy bugger.
