A city floating in the center of a lake, Ravok is a place of dark beauty, romance and culture. Behind it all though is the presence of Rhysol, God of Evil and Betrayal. The city is controlled by The Black Sun, a religious organization devoted to Rhysol. [Lore]
A delicately appointed shop located well within the Noble District, Azure Reflections Fine Tailoring specializes in quality fabrics and fashionable clothing for refined tastes. The structure is tall and narrow, varnished a brilliant white and adorned with colorful flowerboxes and decoratively cut hedges. Displayed in the front windows are the tailor's most current designs, often dark and always very Ravokian in style, with sharp hemmed shoulders and gilded patterns. Inside the shop, a dark blue and radiant golden theme dominates the environment, with fine rugs lain across the lacquered wooden floor and crystal lighting fixtures hung from the ceiling. Luxurious rolls of intricate weaves and embroidered patterns are on exhibited, available for purchase by bulk or cut and sewn into clothing and attire.
Most of the fabric is imported from other Syliran cities, though the shop occasionally boasts of Kalinor silk or Talderan cashmere—though whether these claims are true remains to be verified. Nearly all of the designs and weaves are crafted by Alira Wickham, a well-known socialite from a lesser known family in Ravok. The shop is owned by her, but she is almost never there herself. Instead, she leaves the operation of Azure Reflections to her Kelvic slave, a well-trained glamor possession. Because of his short attention span and general incompetence, the shop keeps tight hours and is only open during the morning and afternoon.
Sells clothing, fabrics, dyes, and pouches. See Price List for valued wares.

Alira Wickham is a highly opinionated and often outspoken woman, on a mission to make a name for her family and earn recognition for the Wickhams' discerning tastes and high standards. She touts herself as a trendsetter, sharply critical of fashion choices but often praising the avant-garde. The Wickham family has some ties to the Ebonstryfe; her brother is a low ranking member of the order, and she lets everybody know about it.
Azure is a peacock Kelvic and a slave belonging to Alira Wickham. Named for the store itself, Azure is considered the Wickham family pet, and his feathers inspire many of Alira's designs. Oftentimes his feathers even end up in the clothing themselves. Particularly attracted to shiny objects, such as miza coins, and adoring the colors of the fabrics, he appears to enjoy his work. He is a little daft, and unlike his owner, very quiet and reserved. He has handsome eyes, and dark hair with an almost iridescent sheen.
When Alira is present at the shop, Azure takes his peacock form and tends to loiter around the building, looking for lost coins and singing a mournful-sounding cry.
