Ba Sing Se Embassy

[Titan of Stone]

Ba Sing Se
Embassy

The Ba Sing Se embassy is located inside the capitol city. It is raised up above most residential areas. Some think this is due because the Feudal Lord family believes that the elevated real estate in the earth gives good fortune. Thus those whom visit are given an express view of a city landscape from the peak of a nearby mountain. Though unfortunately due to this elevation, the snow is nearly year round, and the weather can get very harsh. So to compensate there is a grand staff present to accommodate dignitaries, and others who may have a vested interest in The Land of Earth's government.

The Main House:
In the northern portion of the compound a complex building stands. This is where one would check in and stay at the Embassy. The Embassy itself functions much like a resort. This is because flattery is the best policy. For when it comes to diplomatic relations, the talks are usually condescending with some sort of pleasant activity. Thus the house itself is actually built down into the mounting. Having various facilities for spending the night, communal hot spring baths, and other functions to relieve the stress of intense talks. Thus the meeting areas are not the conventional stuffy room. This all in an effort to promote peace and tranquility.

• Common Area, Fancy (1 space)
  When entering the Main house for the first time, one finds themselves in the reception area. There is a few clerks and other staff members to assist with baggage or simply to check into the facility. This area is furnished with only the best to immediately set the minds of the occupants at ease.
  
  
• Bedrooms, Luxury (2 spaces)
  The bedrooms is exactly what one would expect from a high end resort. The functions are simple enough. Should diplomatic talks extend beyond a day or more, then the use of the rooms are used. They are furnished with only the best that The Land of Earth can offer and have an interior decor that notes many fine stone craftsmanship. Within the rooms there is a full service staff that is capable of providing in room food service and even massages. Anything can be asked for, and the Staff will do their utmost to accommodate.
  
  
• Bath, Luxury (2 spaces)
  The baths are featured underneath the main house. Here there are a few separate baths that run from the natural hot springs found underneath the mountain itself. The design of these rooms are modeled after the interior of a cave. Though lighting has been created to give a soft feel and fireplaces heat up the room from the cave walls. It creates an environment meant to further relax and rejuvenate the occupants. It is communal bathing, and also includes mud baths. Here are where many of the talks are conducted when dealing with state issues.
  
  
• Tavern, Luxury (2 spaces)
  The Tavern sits within the main level of the main house. Inside this space one could host parties of all sorts. They can hold many functions here and of course with all the services provided by a tavern. This includes drinking and a smoking section. Though the atmosphere has been geared toward the more relaxed side rather than the high impact side of the party atmosphere.
  
  
• Trophy Hall, Fancy (1 space)
  The trophy hall houses the accomplishments of The Land of Earth. Most of the artifacts here have been donated or loaned from accomplished adventurers, to great shinobi. This is where those who have sacrificed themselves for the country have some memento displayed. Here you can even find symbols of alliances and other inspiring affects.

The Servants House:
The servants house is where the staff of the facility are housed. They use this as administrative, cooking, equipment, and even in house living servants quarters. This is where one can find a servant if in need.

• Servants' Quarters (1 space)
  Housing the Servants within the facility. One can find many rooms that can be geared for many functional needs. From live in servants quarters, make shift storage spaces, filing rooms, and other functions that are needed to run a resort style embassy.
  
  
• Kitchen, Luxury (2 spaces)
  The kitchen is used by staff. Housing the best equipment, and stocked with the best ingredients that The Land of Earth has to offer. The produces that come from this space can be deemed as five star quality. This is a very busy area of the facility and generally no one is allowed entrance due to the request to not interrupt the going ones of cooking.

---

Security:
The security is run on a non bias policy. They are there to protect, they are not there to investigate, arrest, or otherwise spy upon any guest. They will keep any valuables save, and make sure there are no outside influences when it comes to talks being conducted. There is always a guard posted outside a door, hallway, or a space that does not have eyes upon it. The theory that safety, secrecy, and protection is their number 1 goal. This is so that no one needs to be paranoid when conducting talks with one another. No matter the subject the security are sworn to secrecy, and will not speak about anything they over hear, not even to the feudal lord himself.

• Barracks (1 space)
  This is a simple space to house the security staff within the embassy. Their beds are very uniform, their lockers very clean, and they even have a space set aside to train new recruits. The embassy policies about secrecy and security are posted throughout this space to reinforce the fact that they are there for a specific reason.
  
  
• Armory, Fancy (1 space)
  This armory is stocked to provide the security staff with whatever instruments of protection that is needed. It also provide enough weapons and armor to protect the occupants should the need arise. This area is under heavy lock and guard to ensure that it is only used by the security staff itself.
  
  
• Vault [Storage, Luxury (1 space)]
  Under heavy lock and guard. This space is provided to the occupants as a luxury. Should the carry any valuables which they wish to be stored in a secure and safe place than this is where one would place them. This is actually a secret room underneath the servants quarts. There is a tunnel running from the barracks down to this room. The room itself actually sits one hundred feet underneath the facility itself.

---

NPCs

There is a rotating staff for the Embassy. This is to ensure anonymity among guests. They generally range from D class individuals for support staff. The Security on the other hand are usually hand chosen by the Feudal Lord always have some skill, they are generally A class individuals. The uniform for the servants are pretty typical of a resort, with a very maid looking uniform. The Administration staff are usually weapon suits with a wireless radio ear piece. Now the Security wear the same uniform as the Administration staff so that their presence can be more masked within the staff themselves.

Thread Rules:

• DE thread: I wish not to hamper Role Play, so if shenanigans go down I hope the experience is enjoyable. Note this facility is indestructible in a way that it can be rebuilt should someone wish to bomb it.
• Should a fight break out, then the NPC security will fall under "Attacking a Village" rule for Anbu guards (in this case Embassy Security).
  
• IIC 2 days, No posting order unless interaction is needed.
  
• If you have no embassy related business, you may not stay at the embassy/resort.

[Spectre of the Falls(Kuroki)]

A Giant messenger beetle, having hitched a ride to Tsuchi no Kuni in a Merchant's cart to rest its wings on the way, tapped impatiently at a window.

Once allowed inside, it would offer up a leg with a roll of paper around it. It was of course, a message from Takigakure. It read only -

"Lady TsuchiKage,

Apologies for the silence of this office. A new Takikage has taken reign. If you want to have a meeting of the minds to further our alliance and strengthen our bonds, he invites to have correspondence so such a meeting could take place.

-Evangeline Ross, Head Secretary to the Takikage"

[Lady Jaz]

//Enter Messenger Bird

A lone black raven flew swiftly into the Embassy's window, landing upon the desk and folded its blue-black wings. Upon the Raven's back was a cylinder that was attached to a harness which was wrapped around the creature's body. Upon the cylinder was the symbol of Amegakure. If opened, the letter would say:

Dear Tsuchikage,

My name is Jasmine Black and I am the new Amekage.
I have records that the previous Amekage had abolished all ties between Amegakure and Iwagakure for reasons that I am unsure of. For this, I must apologise and would like to hopefully find out why such a decision was made.
If you would like to contact me to discuss this, I will be happy to accept an audience with you to discuss this.


Kind regards


Jasmine F. Black
Amekage

Once the message was successfully delivered, the raven would take flight and return back to Amegakure no Sato without further ado.

[Amelie]

{Enter}

Amelie has found the address easily as the capital was very well labeled plus the people also helped. The building was pretty impressive, this showed if the people behind it had money or not. This indicated that business with them will definitely prosper. She walked in with her fancy blue dress reaching her knees with luxurious trimming. Her stature was really small, one would say she was just a kid but that was not the case.

Amelie had a complex with her height, often sulking when someone mentions it. With a trunk behind her, the girl walked into the halls, looking for some desk or receptionist. The uniformed guards gave her the feelings of safety, though still very lost. As she walked slowly further, her eyes scanned the rich decoration, especially the drawings and vases. Some of the craftsmanship was looking high quality and some were just average.

When reaching the end of the hall she entered some room, the staff was all around and many other visitors talked to each other. Now this looked more like an embassy, she thought. Dragging her luggage behind her, she headed straight to the place she thought was a reception. "Good day to you. Amelie here, an Alchemist of Flock and a general artisan." she introduced her native title, which of course she forgot alchemy in this world was different.

"I am here to do business with you. Someone recommended me your village." it was just some merchant she met, didn't even ask his name. Well Amelie did not know if this introduction was enough, this was her first time in this world doing business with some larger entity.

[Titan of Stone]

A young woman with green hair would peek up seeing the blonde enter and smiled bowing her head in greeting before the blonde divulged her reason for being there.

"Oh that sounds so exotic, I'm sure the Tsuchikage will love you." The girl chirped before digging around her desk and eventually producing a small map about the size of a napkin.

"This will show you to Iwagakure and serves as a pass for you to enter the gates~ I hope you enjoy your visit." The girl explained keeping her rather upbeat attitude.

OOC: sorry for the small post youre free to head to the tower ^^

[Amelie]

Only now has the alchemist noticed the young woman's hair was green. Her yes widened more as she was greeted by the smiling receptionist who politely bowed. Oh so, even in this world people showed respect to each other. Fashion here was a strange one. The receptionist said something about a Tsuchikage, this foreigner was not familiar with such a title but this was not a good time to be asking this. Amelie decided to hold off the question for when she was really inside the hidden villages, asking stupid questions could get her a quick closed door.

Still she weighted the receptionists words carefully, was there something more behind them? No matter, once she meets the so called "Tsuchikage" then we all shall see. Amelie quickly returned a bow as well as it was polite once accepting the free map. "Oh, is that it?" surprised at the fast approval, not that she would protest. The map was drawn into a small napkin-like document making it a little harder to decipher. Older people might have a problem with it, Amelie was fine. "Well, thank you. I certainly hope so too." she gave a brisk reply.

The alchemist traced her steps and back out of the building. Along the way, she spotted someone in really interesting armor. Just from the glance she determined the material used to make it was definitely what she would call beryllium. Back in her world, such a material was common for the elite knights but since coming here, no guards she has met was wearing anything like it. This made her think, the materials here were extremely rare or non-existent. In any case she was now taking larger steps, speeding to the place on that map.

{Exit}

OOC: No probs, there'll be more opportunities lol

[💚AyZe💥]

Enter.

She strolled around the capital, observing the way people walked, talked and dressed before she received directions and made her way to the embassy. During her stroll she came across a girl same height as her, placed her in a genjutsu that made her sleep, then stripped her naked stealing her dress and boots. The clay artisan found a dark corner and changed from her wet attire into the stolen short, backless, long sleeved blue dress that showed her well built body, and the long white boots that moved all the way up to her knees. The thin heels on the boots made her look inches taller than she was and she loved it. In a gorgeous dress and her once wet shoulder length hair now dry she felt ready to go talk business.

The Kunoichi walked through the doors of the embassy and looked for a room labelled receptionist, or anybody behind a desk that looked like they were the receptionist. After she had found such a person, she would approach and politely say, "Hello. I'm here in hopes of getting directions to the village or an escort. The name is Zoe Toujitakumi." She had gotten used to calling herself Angela so much that referring to herself by the name given to her by her parents sounded a bit weird. She guessed they would want to know her reason for wanting to go visit the village before giving her the directions, and decided to give her reason before it was asked. "I have been staying in a foreign village for some years, I miss my family and would love to see them again."  Even though the part about missing her family wasn't true, no sighs of lies would be detected being the gifted liar that she was.

She plastered a sweet innocent smile over her face and waited for a reply.

[Titan of Stone]

A young girl glanced up with vibrant green hair momentarily obstructing her vision as she saw the girl approach. Her usual inviting smile stayed on her lips as the girl spoke. "Do you have proof of your residency? I'm sure you understand the seriousness of your request of course."

Her green hair shifted a bit her eyes bright the thin green veil as she waited for any proof. An AnBu appeared beside the desk as well awaiting the proceedings, not so much as a threat in fact the masked man would take her to the village as her escort once things had been finished.

[💚AyZe💥]

Zoe shook her head in response to the green hajred kunoichi's question "No, no proof. I can give you the name of the person I want to visit." With her family dead she knew of only one distant relative who she last saw five years back before leaving. "Katherine Toujitakumi can vouch for me, she's a shinobi of stone and also my aunt, I'm here to visit her." She hoped the woman who was cousins with her father but insisted they call her aunt was still alive or her plan to get inside the hidden village of stone wouldn't succeed.

[Titan of Stone]

"Hm... Well we will check in on that then." The girl responded as she wrote the name across a piece of paper before handing it back to the Anbu who vanished as well. "Feel free to sit until we get word back~"

The girl went about her work again for a little while before the Anbu returned handing a slip of paper to the green haired woman who quickly peered over it before looking up for the young girl and motioning her over. "It looks like things check out so you'll be accompanied to the village~"

/cleared for entry

[💚AyZe💥]

"Thank you for your assistance. I'll be on my way now" she'd say happily before turning towards the door to find her way out.

Exit

[Claws of the Tundra]

[Enter Snow Owl Messenger Animal]

Overnight a nocturnal predator, of doom would roam the skies of the great Land of Earth. Its attention was steady, and true all the way up until now. Its flight of course was long, however this mighty owl was resilient. Although very hungry as well. With no warning the owl, would have swooped down on unsuspecting prey. Having spotted it from a height no mere bird could, simply easily make out.

The owl made quick work of an innocent earthworm. Taking it out immediate, and turning it into a on the way snack. The worm never saw the daylight again. The owl was still hungry. Perhaps its destination will hold more food? Time will tell, however first things first the avian predator would find itself within the capitol of Tsuchi no Kuni. More specifically its Embassy as its been trained to recognize.

On a simple perch, the owl would hoot frequently to gain someone's attention. And once its cargo had been taken, the owl would like spend the rest of its night hunting before heading home. The Land of Earth has a plethora of morsels to take for itself.
