    Q: How can I survive selling food and stuff that doesn't really matter in an RP like this?
    Clothing and Food will not be paid for per unit like Zoid parts and Zoids however, a restaurant or cafe or whatever will gain a certain amount of money every season depending on where it is. What you decide to do with that money is up to you. You can also ask for real money tips, which are non taxable payouts paid straight to the character recieving them depending on their contract.

    Q: Do I have to buy stock or materials?
    No not unless that stock is the product of another store like a Zoid or a Weapon. In that case you would have to pay for it from that shop.

    Q: Can I ever take over Chancer's?
    No. But you can be Chancer...

    Promise To The Fallen
    Mr. Marquis, until we have your full residential papers; I am afraid we cannot offer you a Merchants License at this time. Please make sure you file all the appropriate paperwork and once that is done, we shall re-evaluate your licensing.

    EDIT: Sorry about that Mr. Marquis. It seems as though there was an error in our database concerning your residential papers. All seems to be in order now, you are cleared to take ownership of the aforementioned establishments.

    As a Moderator, you may simply archive the current topics and repost them with you as the creator so that you may get the notices and so that people know that these particular businesses are RPC owned. If after a while, you have failed to claim the topics as your own, we will repossess them as NPC run businesses.

    Thank you and have a nice day.

    Character Name: Noel Nightingale
    Business Name: Lyrica
    Business Role: Domestication of Wild and Feral Zoids for sale/recreational usage. Zoids are generally not sold directly to pilots, they are sold to other businesses at wholesale value in bulk. (Meaning Cheaper)
    Business Location/s: Zoid Landing


    Character Name: Noel Nightingale
    Business Name: Behemoth
    Business Role: Underground Zoid Fights. Competitors can be Pilot vs. Pilot. Pilot vs. Wild Zoid. Or Wild Zoid vs Wild Zoid. Unsanctioned events for monetary gain.
    Business Location/s: Undertown


    Uchiha Roxas

    The zoids will have all gun styled weapons removed, any caliber is removed from it. However, any other battle capabilities it has not derivative of projectile weaponry remains in tact. As well, they can still have these weapons re-installed. As there are many, many kinds of Zoids, there is no restriction on the kind of Zoid that can be domesticated. They are sold to businesses, Zoid shops/Farmers/ Merchants/Security/Police.
    As well they are cheaper. 90% of the regular cost for a single zoid.
    75% of the regular cost for 5+ Zoids
    50% cost for 10+ Zoids.
    Basically the more you buy the cheaper it is. Keep in mind this company doesn't purchase Zoids itself, it finds and tames wild ones. Making their production costs a bit cheaper.


    And yes, I know Behemoth is illegal. It's supposed to be illegal. As well, by rp standards, it would happen through illegal means. Having cops, maybe even the Chief Commissioner, on the payroll. Perhaps even a Judge. Maybe hold the life of someone dear in harms way to convince authorities to look the other way. Noel was raised in a mob style family, she has ways of making this work. And yes, she has her own Arena. It's literally built into the ground and roughly the size of a football field. (Off the top of my head.) It's like a stadium, except underneath the ground and fortified with soundproof/bulletproof(blahblahblahproof) coating to stop it from being heard. There are two entrances. One from Lyrica, that leads down a long tunnel[From Zoid Landing to Undertown] to the Stadium for Zoid transport. One from some unnamed place(haven't decided yet) to the same location, but through a different route. This entrance is obviously only for people to come and view. Usually people of high standing with money to burn.

    Dear Miss Nightingale,
    After having read your reasons and what not for your proposed businesses, there are a couple of issues that without really breaking the whole of Olympian Society as a whole would be nigh impossible.

    For the first business about domestication the issue is simply this:
    Due to the fact we have no real "outside" of Olympia places within the guild yet and we do not plan to add them for a while; taming wild Zoids would be without a doubt impossible because you will not be able to find them within the confines of Olympia and no matter how skilled or influential you are you will not be allowed to travel outside the city limits unless you are 1. A Judge or 2. A Members of the National Guard's Expedition Forces.

    This then brings us onto the next problem with the Behemoth:
    You could easily counter the above point and be like "Well, corruption and blackmail are the tools in which I get my trade done" and that would be cool if it was possible. With Olympia being so insulated though and the Judge's Power and everything else that happens within Olympia being on a sort of honour system; I doubt very much that you would be able to mke anything happen for with every judge you bride there will be more even nobler that can simply point a cannon at your illegally fighting or leaving Zoids and disable them and arrest you.

    And as for the stadium, there would be no way for that to be built without someone knowing. You have to transport Zoids... In Undertown, which even states it is impossible to maneuver any Zoids through its narrow streets. You'd get caught without a doubt and to me it just doesn't seem valid.

    Obviously, you'll keep fighting for this and that's fine but I do that you do not fight "blindly" for what it is you want and take on board what it is we are saying.
