ooc : sounds like a plan. Bic: hey I'm gonna take off the armour and change clothes . I have a idea I want to discuss on making gold wether for here , us , or myself. I'm thinking about boxing . Feel free to discuss it amongst yourselves while waiting on me to return. I'll be back in 10 minutes at the latest . Ooc: arthur leaves the room to take off the armour and change into cleaner clothes for now
Ooc - nobody has to wait till he says he comes back to start the discussion. Just don't want to stall out momentum where we are all waiting for the other.
(I am sorry, I was at chris' birthday party today. Was a blast. I left the neopolitan icecream that I brought in the freezer for you Mike ^_^ tysm for hosting. You're always so kind)
*Raven nods to Arthur and smiles as she waves to him and to the driver as well, then begins to make her way down the street in the mentioned direction, looking out for the flowershop*
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Raven As you approach the building, you notice it's 3 stories with the top story converted to a greenhouse, with a rainbow of flowers blossoming within. Upon entering the ground floor, a wood elf with long braided hair looks up from tending a plant and says:
"Hail, and well met my friend. Welcome to Corellon's Crown! I am Fala Lefaliir, an herbalist and member of the Guild of Apothecaries and Physicians. I tend to all things living here." Waving a hand across the many plants and flowers on the shelves.
If asking for flowers, Fala takes you on a tour of the many flowers available. "This flower's properties aid in-blah blah blah." "This orchid has a rich aroma if the soil's acidic-blah blah blah" "Soon I will place these out in the sun so they-blah blah" "And these when properly mix with clover-blah blah blah"
A lot of the intricacies go over your head as you don't speak Herbalism Kit. Halfway through the floral tour a large gruff looking half-orc in leather armor enters the building and approaches the duo. He bows down slightly to Fala, and hands over a tiny paper sack. Fala puts a hand on his cheek and says "Thank you, my friend. My lifesaver, as always" The half-orc grins, and turns and leaves back out the front door. Raven notices a glaive and the largest bow you've even seen strapped across his back. (Random number for something: 20 )
Fala continues the confusing tour of the many flowers and their properties, occasionally eating taffy from the tiny bag. During the course of the conversation Fala mentions that in addition to non-magical herbal remedies, the following potions are created here and for sale: Potions of Animal Freindship, Climbing, Greater Healing, Healing, and Water Breathing.
Fala ends the tour and asks "What kind of flower can I get for you today?"
Some new stuff I updated/added to the Homebrew section for this campaign:
I added Humanoid Cohorts to the Sidekick rules in use here. They were originally intended for "pets" that didn't grow with your level, but a Cohort(hired, befriended, etc) is essentially a "pet" of your character. This will add a few extra Hps to them, and maybe some extra stuff later on.
Darts have the Ammunition Property: They are cheap and tiny. And outside of a Net they are the only item in the Ranged categories that do not already have this property. This does make them breakable like arrows, bolts, and bullets.(There might be a reason they didn't already do this, I haven't figured it out yet. We'll test this out. If it becomes a balance problem we'll readdress this.)

Arthur: I have no idea who to contact as far as getting into the boxing matches go. Other than than all of you , the employees here, and the temple of Tyr I have no real contacts here since I'm new to this city. I am a capable boxer though, learned the art in Baulder's Gate. It could be a gamble as far as my luck goes but it is nonetheless an idea. If any of you know who to talk to as far as the legal events are concerned or if any of you know someone and you all think it's a good idea please by all means tell me your opinions or tell me the facts
*Raven stares all the way up at the greenhouse roofing and the scent begins to wathe over her of all the many flowers and plants. She makes her way inside and bows with respect to the propieter then smiles as the aroma hits her even harder. She happily accepts the offer of a tour but has a hard time keeping up, writing small notes on her parchment of the potions and taking glances at the bag in their hands every now and then as the lady munches away.*
*Raven stops to look around one more time and (may I roll to find any very unique looking flowers? or ones that just stick out so well for appearances/color?)
*Raven ponders for a moment before looking back to the flourist* How much for one Potion of Animal Friendship, 2 vase and 2 seed packs for your Dahlia's? https://prnt.sc/s2kjpi
"Well the pots and seeds you can have for 3 silver, but the Animal Friendship potions take a lot of resources to make. Those cost at least 125 gold dragons."
*Raven sighs at the high price, but nods and hands the flourist 3 silver for all* "That is a lot more than I expected, but I will gladly take the flower seeds and vases. Thank you very much"
*And with that Raven bows with respect and turns towards the door, leaving with the vases between each armpit*
When Raven arrives at the Common room on the 2nd floor, Mr Russell speaks:
"Miss Ashglade(not present) can definitely attend to her job alongside your proposed endeavor, Lord Darkeyes."
"She does her thing according to the levels we set and fund" (Carousing, low, middle or high class).
"She has more time to do those things than the Partners she works for"(you're a Partner, she's an employee)
"When our Hordesperson gets back(OOC-long work day for Herald I believe) he can make a decision on her goals"(she's already on the payroll as of today, extra funding for 5 days of her goal: 10gp for lower class, 50gp for middle class, 250gp for upper class hopefully resulting in contact(s) of those levels)
"Maybe you can explain your idea to Miss Raven here" (Your idea for Your downtime activity which would thematically be an Acq Inc sponsored pugilist)
(OOC - I want to say it's YOUR downtime so you-do-you sort of thing, but I'm really digging the teamwork vibe this brings to the party)
Bic: Raven my idea for getting some gold for this place is by entering the honourable world of boxing for a bit. Yes I'd be raising gold for myself too , since I'm the 1 that's gonna take some hits too
*Raven comes in and sets the 2 vases down carefully, dropping the seed packets into each vase seperrately then sits at a table, as usual turning the chair around before sitting in it. Raven looks around the room and nods to each before finally looking to Arthur and ponders his words*
"Oh! I can see that bringing more people to our franchise. So, like a fighting ring where most of the winnings go to you, and some of the winnings goes to the facility for upgrades and whatnot? Out of curiosity, what percentage, Sir? 70/30? 80/20?"
"I do believe he is talking about going out and participating in already established tournaments and such. There won't be anything in the Companies budget, schedule, or space for adding such a thing here for awhile."

Let's assume you all made it back to the Manor for the evening. We can come back to role-play flower shopping if we need to.
I'd like to get us all a touch further before the work week starts again for us.

Sounds good
Arthur and Herald are in the Common Room while Raven is flower shopping, discussion ensues...

(nothing to roll for, it's all out in the open. Your character's floral preferences are highly in your own hands to decide upon)

Ooc: Arthur is still waiting on replys, wether it's Herald , Cloud , Raven, Mr Russell , or Miss Ashglade ( if she is still present ) .
When Raven arrives at the Common room on the 2nd floor, Mr Russell speaks:
"Miss Ashglade(not present) can definitely attend to her job alongside your proposed endeavor, Lord Darkeyes."
"She does her thing according to the levels we set and fund" (Carousing, low, middle or high class).

(OOC - I want to say it's YOUR downtime so you-do-you sort of thing, but I'm really digging the teamwork vibe this brings to the party)
Ooc: I'm honestly trying for the teamwork vibe .
