People of Soudai Retsu

• Yosaki Etsani
  Rank: D
  Age: 20
  Skills: None
  Standing at only five feet and five inches, this man is rather diminutive. To reinforce that notion, a closer glance reveals that he lacks muscle entirely. A bush of black hairs grows from his head, wild and uncombed. His face is covered in a thick beard which has not been shaven for some years. A thick coat covers his body to protect from the cold as Yosaki shovels away the snow. This is his only duty; a laborer.
  
  
• Ketsaku Demari
  Rank: S
  Age: 50
  Skills: Ninkutsu and Taijutsu Spec. Goutetsu Master, Muay Thai Master, Bokushingu Master, Resuringu Master, Fuuton Master, Suiton Master, Hyouton Master, Summoner, Crafter (Bookkeeper)
  Despite his advanced age Ketsaku is a quite capable warrior, but battle is his duty no more, as now he is the owner of Soudai Retsu. The remnants of gray hairs are clearly visible on his shaven head. His face, too, has been shaved, but the job is not done very well as several gray patches remain. A fine, black suit covers his body, straightened and kept free of dirt. Two light green eyes are set into his face above a thin nose. Cheekbones nearly protrude from beneath his gaunt cheeks. He is build quite well for an elderly man, with a muscled, finely tone arms and chest.

[Muu]

[Enter]

        The heavy wooden doors boomed closed behind Muu as he stood in the entry way of the warm book shop. There was a fire close by which fill the air with warmth as well as the smell of burning wood. Muu's lazy eyes took in the grandness of the common area that acted as the main entry, resting area, and shop keepers counter for the store. He took a breath audibly, letting out the air noisily be fore he started walking deeper into the store. As he walked by the old man behind the counter Muu slipped out his hand to wave absently at him an spoke,

"Hey there old guy, no need to get up i'm just here for a reference book nothing special. I can find it myself."

He would make his way to the stairs and up to the second floor. It was still warm but with the windows up here a draft could be felt, even against his warming skin. The small green haired boy looked through the books on the shelf, absently dragging his pointed nail over the spines as he went. He finally discovered what he was searching for, a rather large Ritual reference book. He used both hands to pull it off the shelf, a puff of dust accompanying it, before he patted it clean and examined it further. Upon his closer inspection he confirmed that it was indeed a ritual seal reference book and as soon as that was done he was on his way back down the stairs.

He stroled right up to the clerks counter, and dropped the 400 page reference book onto the counter in front of him with a louder then necessary thud. "How Much for this then old man?", Muu asked as he cast his lazy eyes over the gentleman behind the counter. He was defiantly up there in his years, but there was something off about him to Muu, something that just yelled that he didn't belong in a store behind a counter. Maybe it was the toned arms that suggested the guy did something else with his spare time besides read books. But who knew, Muu didn't intend to get to know him today so he didn't really care. The store clerk examied the book, and then replied, "This book is 6,500 ryo little boy. Go get that from your mommy and daddy and  i'll let ya walk outta here with this here book okay."

Muu eyed him for a minute... not thrilled about the old man's tone, which was one of a smug asshole if you ask Muu, but in fairness Muu hadn't been polite and he decided to chalk it up as a cost of doing business. He reached into his coat pocket and took out a small wallet with the amount requested, tossing it onto the counter next to the book. He then put a hand on the book and waited for the old man to take and count his money before asking, "Are we good? I'd like to get back now."

[Madame Loki]

Loki had a blank expression on her face as she was handed the ritual. Loki shook her head, Of course, it would be the last place that she looked, where she would find what she was looking from. She took the ritual, and added it to her Grimoire, and she walked out of the door, with Nuit Bagheera following closely behind her.

Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: Page Count: 534 pgs. By Mijon Sun. Little is known about the Warlord Mijon Sun, except for the fact that fighters and warriors hail him as a genius. Those who have read his book credit the information therein with saving their lives on more than one occasion. Part physical training, part motivational handbook, the text explains mot only the fundamentals of combat, but expounds the virtue of honorable fighting and the dignity of valor. In life, Mijon Sun had been the youngest son of a wealthy warlord. Though given basic training in weaponry and tactics, he was forced to study warfare like his older brothers. Content to inherit neither his father’s power nor responsibilities, Mijon Sun studied art and literature and led the life of a spoiled noble. That is, until war broke out and his father and two older brother’s died in combat. Forced to take command of his family’s battered army, he tried to defend his people. But he was beaten down by the opposing warlord on the battlefield. Before his opponent delivered the fatal blow, he mocked Mijon Sun and said he would take his dear sister as a concubine. The thought filled Mijon with a renewed sense of purpose, and he focused the purpose into his blade. He managed to defeat the enemy warlord and finally drive back the enemy army. He then took to devout study of the art of war, and combined this knowledge with his own literary skills to create a masterpiece of warfare. The tactics in the book rely heavily on ideas of honor, valor, integrity, and personal fortitude. Power comes not only from practice and natural skill, but recognizing what is of importance and using it to fuel your battle. Characters of LG, LN, N, and NG alignment readily understand the concepts in the book, and gain a +10 Armour Points in Striking Damage against defenses, a +1 Competence Bonus to Saves pertaining to GenJutsu and other forms of similar persuasion.

They gain only a +10 Armour Points in Striking Damage against defenses or a +1 Competence Bonus to Saves pertaining to GenJutsu and other forms of similar persuasion. Evil aligned characters cannot gain any benefit from this book. It takes about a week of careful study to understand the contents of the book.

Cost: 50,000 Ryo Creatures of Chaos and Mayhem Rank: "A" Type: Main, Book, Reference Effect: A book on Monsters and adventures pertaining to monsters. Special: --- Drawback: --- Description: Page Count: 520 pgs. By Magister Bartholomew Heidenclark. Magister Bartholomew Heidenclark served as Magister of a small community often bedeviled by strange creatures due to its unfortunate proximity to the ruins of an ancient tower. The Magister often employed adventurers to eliminate various threats to the town, and (if they successfully returned) would interview them regarding the beasts they fought. He recorded all this information into his book. He also often visited the taverns to speak with travelers and collect information regarding other monsters. The book is meant as a reference book, not a study book. It is indexed by name (when known), type (Mythical Beast, Undead, etc), and specific characteristics (winged creatures, poisonous, etc) for ease of use. The listings included the general powers of the monster as well as its weaknesses. Some have dubbed it the Monster Hunter’s Holy Book. While Magister Heidenclark did his best to cross-reference and verify the information, the book is not entirely accurate. However, there is a 25% chance the information regarding any specific creature is inaccurate or flawed. Also, there are various versions of the book in circulation, as others have added to the original work long after the Magister’s death, and it is possible for two different versions of the book to have conflicting information.

Loki smiled as this frozen wasteland was a complete waste of her time surprisingly. She grabbed her book, and then made her way out of the shop. There were still two more book stores for her to rummage through before she headed home.

Loki smiled. She may not like coming here. But they always seemed to have what she needed. Probably because no one else seemed to like walking through this snowy wasteland either. Loki tucked her ritual away, and headed out of the door. It was about time that she made her way home. She would need to write these rituals down in her grimoire. After that she would probably need to pay a visit to an old friend in Kusa... she had not seen Aimi in some time.

Gunnr would enter into the shop and her tiny head would be on a swivel, as she looked at all of the books and scrolls that were there. She would walk up to the front desk finding the thought of looking through all of these a bit daunting. "Um excuse me good sir, would you happen to have anything on the Deep Pockets Ritual?" Gunnr would stand there on her tip toes as she looked at the shop keep with a smile on her face hoping for the best.
