The harbor is almost always filled with yachts, ferries, and small private boats. It's very clean and lacks the fishy smell that most docks have. There's a gift shop at the end of the wharf, with overpriced post cards and souvenir seashells.

She waited until the ship was silent, the laughing of its passengers having faded away and even its crew seemed to not be around any longer. Looking through a hole in the wood, it seemed like the coast was clear, so she pushed out of the little place that she'd smuggled onto.
Crawling out, she stretched out her arms and her legs and arched her back a little. Ooh, it had been cramped in there. But this would be wonderful! She'd finally be in Ozmodias and could begin her life. She checked to make sure that the Egg was still in her bag that hung from her shoulder.
Using some of the amenitites of the ship to clean herself up, she finally moved onto the deck to see Ozmodias laid out all before her...
... and frowned.
She made her way off the ship, and looked very much out of place. She wasn't beautifully dressed, but rather economically so. Soraya looked very much like a provincial girl suddenly trapped in a world of the wealthy.
As she wandered down the dock, she stopped to read a sign. "Carmela," she said, and then groaned. Clearly, she'd smuggled aboard the wrooong ship.

The customs "officers" barely look up from their drinks as the passengers disembark.
"Welcome ta Carmela folks enjoy ya stay."
The casual greeting comes from a person sitting at a desk marked customes. They make no effort to stop people or check luggage. Everyone populating the dock is either shirtless or wearing light clothing to combat the heat.
"Try out Vauc'Tutt n'Butte best bar in town. Or stay at hotel sunrise."

The sultry heat of the island had already soaked her shirt to her skin, and she can tell that her leather corset and leather pants are only going to hamper her. Still, she had precious amount of coin in her bag, and she was very sure that she wouldn't be able to afford a place called "Hotel Sunrise."
And yet, even with those thoughts in her mind, there's an air of laziness around the island, like no one would want for anything.
"Right," Soraya says to the custom officer, a young woman still in the blush and ripeness of youth. "Thanks." She hesitated and was about to step away from the man behind the Customes sign when she stepped back. "Is there any chance that there's a schedule of the ships that'll be coming and going?" she wondered.

The customs "officials" shrugs her shoulders and rummages around their table. Eventually they locate what they are looking for and they hand it over.
"There ya are mon"
It appears to be a ships schedule from two weeks ago. The customs "Official" appears to already be napping.

"Great," Soraya said with a roll of here eyes as she makes her way off of the wharf. She crumples up the two-week-old shipping schedule and tosses it into a nearby trash bin, then makes her way into Carmela itself with a list of things she'd need to accomplish.

Roleplay posts: 1,410
Age: 28
Physical Description: Jun is a human adult, standing 5’4”. She is wiry and fit at approximately 120 lbs. She has olive skin, dark brown hair ending just above her shoulders, and slight epicanthic folds over her dark almond eyes. Her face is squarish with a small chin. Her skin is dotted with battle scars, and her left arm is heavily bandaged due to an unknown affliction.
Clothes and Equipment: Jun possesses a vast collection of seeds, herbs, insects, and scrolls hidden in various pouches in her armor. These serve as reagents for her multitude of spells. Her armor consists of a customized, long-coat style gambeson that is stuffed with a matrix of seeds and plant fibers. Fitted on top is a set of brass-like, enchanted half armor (chest piece, pauldrons, and tassets) which gives off a warm aura. She has an open-faced, burgonet style helmet and coif of the same materials.
Her most notable "weapons" are Blackbean and Resonance. Blackbean is an elephant-sized demon crow which has served with Jun for many years as a mount and as a bodyguard. A minor enchantment allows him to disguise himself as a regular crow. Resonance is an azure blue longsword with a mind of his own. He can intercept minor attacks and can teleport to his owner. He can also use a personal reserve of magic to aid in the casting of a single spell.

"I'm done. I'm done I'm done I'm done I'm done I'm done." The small ferry floated into the harbor without any sudden jolts and disturbances. This was good, because Jun was liable to vaporize the ship should anything disturb her rest.
She had fought a wraith, another wraith, another mage, a behemoth world-ending lava monster, a trigger-happy energy being, inter-dimensional animals, a crazy assassin-lady, and a few other things.
She was done.
TIME FOR A VACATION!
Books, check. Bikini, check. Money, check. Weapons... "ugh..." check. Who was she kidding? This was a crazy world. She was liable to meet a siren, an overzealous knight, some serial killers, a dark energy being, and god-knows what else.
"Nah, I'm just being paranoid."

Calico also steps off the boat. The last deal was a good idea. He'd made quite a bit of coin off that one. And now, it is time to party. He drags along a large suitcase, and wears a flowered shirt rather than his usual spiffy suit. As he gets off, he chirps with excitement, knowing that Carmela is the prime vacation spot for all of the upper crust. As he stands on the wharf and smells the fresh sea air, he sighs happily.
"Now...where is that resort?"

It is late in the day and the sun is setting as Jun and Calico exit the little ferry. Unlike most cities Carmela only becomes more active at night and the dock is a bustle with half naked people heading to and from various port side bars. Music and laughter can be heard from every direction. The custom officials appear to be handing out free drinks to those disembarking the ferries as well as flower necklaces. An attractive young man approaches Jun and a women approaches Calico drinks and necklaces in hand they say in chorus.
"Welcome to Carmela! Would you like a green flash mon it's the island signature drink. First ones on us mayors orders, and would the pretty lady/man like a lei."
They are both offered flowers and drinks by the customs officials. The drink has a pleasant lime and pineapple flavor with just a hint of alcohol.

"You know, before I left home, I never used to drink alcohol. But hell, sure, I'll take it. Thanks!" She gladly accepted the lei and the drink. The stinging sensation warmed her very soul.
She turned to the bird man.
"So, you're on vacation too? I'm Jun." She reached her hand out to him.

Calico chirps, glad to have already met someone friendly, and shakes her hand.
"Ah, hello. I'm Calico. Yes, I'm on vacation. Nice to meet you."
He sips his drink, no easy feat for someone with a beak.
"Have you ever been here before? To Carmela Island?"

"No, I'm new. Hell I've never really been on vacation before either." Jun realized she was talking to a bird, but figured she wouldn't draw attention to it. After all, he wasn't trying to kill her or trying to get her to find people who are trying to kill her *cough Zaltos cough*.
"You know, I like you. We should hang out while we're on vacation, that is, if you don't mind."

"Hang out?"
Calico thinks for a moment. He's just now met this woman...but that's half the fun of vacation, meeting new people! Anyhow, she seems nice.
"Alright, let's do that! You've never been on vacation before? Oh, you're missing out. There's a lovely resort here, if I can find it...do you know where it is?"
He lets out a little chirp.

The young couple point down the beach to the north. A large brightly lit building can be seen in the distance it looks lavish. The man says in his laid back accent.
"Just follow the beach mam ya can't miss it Sunset resort nicest place ta stay on the island."
The women chirps up with a giggle.
"Next ta the mayors house, just tell em your family and he'll let ya stay free a charge."

Vain steps off the boat, smiling and winking at anyone who cares to look. He's always been fond of Carmela. People here wear about a tenth of what they wear on the mainland. With a snap of his fingers, he's dressed in a pair of brightly colored swimming trunks and sunglasses.
"We're here, Andraste! Carmela! Isn't it so nice and warm and shiny?"
He waves at a small group of vacationers.
"Everyone's so friendly here!"

Andraste Ruana

Roleplay posts: 244
Age: 25
Physical Description: =====================================
Although she is quite young, Andraste's very being resonates with magical power. She has long, dark red hair that falls down around her face, framing her soft, kindly features nicely. She has soft, unnaturally coloured orange eyes, striking against her pale skin. Andraste's hands speak to a lowborn life of peasant work, rough and callused. However, her skin is fair and her figure elegant, her musculature long and lean, lending itself to swiftness rather than powerful. Heat emanates from her body, able to be felt from almost a foot away.
====================================
Clothes and Equipment: Since her adoption into a magic collegium, Andraste has taken to wearing ornate crimson great robes, flowing about her figure, complete with gold filigree and a roomy hood that shadows her face when worn, although she tends to keep it down outside of whatever court she happens to be serving. Her only offensive equipment is a dirk imbued with a haste enchantment, allowing for almost unnaturally quick strikes. However, she tends to favour her magic-imbued twisted oak staff which enhances her casting ability, the large black onyx stone at the tip of the staff holding a particular affinity to her favoured school of magic: Pyromancy. She also holds a book of various incantations in her other hand when in battle, reading them off with extreme speed and accuracy. She possesses a natural resistance to heat, but is much less resistant to cold.

Andraste is a mite less excited than Vain, partially due to the fact that the heavy crimson robes are slightly less comfortable in the tropical humidity. Her clothes are sticking to her tightly, and while it might be an attractive look from the neck down, it does seem to make her expression slightly less kindly.
"I've never been to a place like this before," admits Andraste, "though I've read of it. What exactly does one do here?"

Vain reaches out and a drink magically appears in his hand.
"Most people just relax on the beaches and go to shows and things. It's fun! I once spent three hole years here, and never had to pay for a single night in a hotel. It was nice."
He gestures to the vast white-sand beaches.
"They're very soft and warm."
