Join us at the Velvet Ribbon, Shartak's finest (and only) burlesque house!

After the realization that there are no banks, caravan trails, or anything remotely of value in the jungle, I have come to the decision of creating a burlesque house!

With a fully stocked bar, a lavish stage of which leads to a costume room, and several rooms for one to sleep in...this is more than the average tavern! This establishment is meant for entertainment, and you will find it upon arriving. Dance, song, theatrics. Enough distractions to make any sailor on leave burn his money away quicker than you could believe!

The bar will be fully 'Pay as you can', meaning you are able to give as you wish for the product rendered. Gold, a handful of berries, a slightly off-color limerick you wrote down one rainy day. All that I ask is that you have the courtesy to tip an act if you've liked it. A girl has to eat, after all.

I will be hiring people as I see fit. If you think you've got what it takes to be a proud bearer of the ribbon, please have a word with me. Bouncers, bartenders, suppliers, performing acts. We're looking for you, the working class of Shartak! This job, of course, pays. I don't believe one bit in slave labor.

The policy on in-house violence stands as such: Anyone except for staff will have to fend for themselves. If you get knocked off in the club, puff up your chest and go get some good old vigilante justice for yourself. We are NOT your personal army, we are NOT peace-keepers or politicians, we ARE a place of enjoyment.

--------------------------------------------

Located at scenic [-70.095,+26.346], beach front property, on the southside of Derby.

(More to come once I'm not so tired! A lazy copy & paste of the clan page, you may join the clan even if you're not a member of the staff!)

Thank god, a bar that doesn't kill the killers unless you knock off a staff member. I shall pay a visit once I am back in Derby.

You attack the tiger and miss. Pausing a moment to reflect on this, tackling the tiger with your bare hands might be considered crazy!

We anticipate your patronage, Grayson. Currently, I am trying to collect all of the staff and we are also working on an original piece for the opening show.

I hope things go well. Sorry to turn down your offer, but an honest days work just isn't in my nature. I prefer stealing money from hard workers. Well, it's my best option really. On the bright side, I'm sure when I have to return to Derby, I'll be robbing your competition, or killing them if they refuse. Either way, it works out well for you, heh.

The base wage of a performer is twenty GC per act, Andrew, and that doesn't include any tips one may earn. Freelance performers may hold an act on their own volition.

great spirit told me to come to derby so i went off-reserve and walked to derby and now i know why i did that. im chief joe from wiksik indian reserve and i think i would make a good bouncer for your joint. ive got really big lungs and as long as i can find someone willing to sell poison darts i can keep the rowdy guys at bay. i like the girls ive seen so far and i swear ive never served more than six months for sex assault so you can count on me to keep my hands to myself. now all the white guys here talk like they have marbles in their mouth so its going to take me awhile to learn but my dream is to have an indian casino one day so having a job where i can talk to people and earn some money would be great. especially since i cant figure out where the gov't office is in this crazy place.

"chief joe, you sure can train at the dtf to help with your language gap, i dunno about the rest of the crew, but im as fluenent in the native talk as i am in the outsider...if...that..is a..good thing. err, either way its somewhere in town you can work on your skills! i know, where im from, most bouncers are into working out at a gym so hey it worth a shot. were one east of the trader. hope to see you there!" - fluffhead
