Scrollworthy, Showroom

[Scrollworthy, Showroom - 7110383]
Elaborate works of art, colorful and vivid, executed upon magical scrolls festoon the bright white walls of the shop. Sitting atop glass-shelved displays that border the airy room, deep blue glass vases frame scroll-cutting devices of various shapes and are matched in color to the small rugs arranged over the smooth, stone tile flooring. An occasional zephyr winds in through the arched windows, ushering in soft floral scents that linger in the air. You also see a tile-framed sign.

In the Common language, it reads:
The scroll cutting devices in the showroom's displays offer a variety of designs for your scroll-making pleasure.  Boxes produce scrolls that are well-matched to the exterior, while the scrolls the cases produce vary somewhat from the external aesthetic.  You should LOOK AT and ANALYZE any scroll cutter you have interest in prior to purchasing.

In the glass-shelved display you see: a dark grey case edged with scribble markings, a cream-colored box smeared with mulberry jam-colored stains, an ornately carved case, a warped ebon box, a wisteria wood case stained in graduated violet hues, an aquamarine box painted with textured waves, a eucalyptus case featuring snowflake imagery, a jade-tinted box, a juniper wood case carved with quaternion eagle imagery, a rune-imprinted box, a golden star-inked box, an ivory box with a black latticework border, a violet-streaked case, a pale silver box with a stylized scorpion design, and a cedar case with neatly inked scrollwork.

As you look over the case, you realize that it would be quite easy for any merchant to work on the aesthetics of the item, so long as it remains a box of some kind that can reasonably fit a scroll and the cutting mechanism in it (which cannot be removed).

You also get the distinct impression that any merchant can change the design that the case makes on scrolls.  Generally, such designs might include the color, texture, shape, and general adornment (such as red-stamped or black-inked). Thus, if the merchant is willing, he or she can customize the design of the article, adjective, and/or long description of the scroll that you wish to produce.

Currently, you are able to put a magical scroll in the case and PUSH it to cut the scroll.  You can also TURN the case to change how certain scroll types are cut.  LOOK at it to get an idea of what the design will come out like, bearing in mind that the noun will always be the same noun that you put into the case.

This portable scroll-cutter currently has 25 charges left for use.  For any case under 150 charges, any willing merchant can add 100 extra charges for 45,000 silvers total.

Scrollworthy, Workshop

[Scrollworthy, Workshop - 7110384]
Cheerfully welcoming, two settees sit opposite each other, with a low, wide table separating them, at the workshop's entry. Well-lit scroll artwork and tall, potted ferns offer tasteful decor, and the gentle babble of a stream originates from an ovaline water sculpture. Spread across the stone tiles of far side of the room, tidily kept workbenches display sectioned boxes filled with the various parts and pieces of scroll cutting devices. You also see an amber-eyed merchant.
Obvious exits: west
an amber-eyed merchant

An amber-eyed merchant is a salesperson NPC who provides scroll cutter customization services.  In short, they are able to change the design of scrolls produced by scroll cutters for a cost of 40000 silvers per service.  To get started, ask them about services.


From hair twisted into a perfectly pinned-up chignon and a fashionably trimmed beard to the pressed appearance of finely tailored trousers and dapper design of his vest, the merchant is so immaculately manicured that nary a thread nor hair looks out of place.  Although his posture is noticeably rigid and his gaze is heavy and intense, his fresh-faced smile is warm and disarming.

On the sandalwood table you see: a collection of books.

a collection of books
The titles of the books show a range across several topics.  You might have more luck with reading their contents if you try to GET one of the books.
