Location The Laughing Dovecote

[Chimera]

The Laughing Dovecote The dovecote is a large, unassuming building that houses laughing doves and peacocks. The dung is collected and used as fertilizer, while dropped feathers are collected for decorations. The building is made of simple clay bricks with holes cut into the side to house doves. There are larger holes near the bottom for peacocks, and the dovecote is attached to a one-story clay building with three rooms. Unlike many of the things in Ahnatep, this building is simple and two the point. Cut herbs and flowers hang from the door frames and walls and provide almost the only decoration in the sparse building. One room holds equipment, the second has a large bathtub and standing basin with a bar of soap, and the third is the bedroom for Sunee, caretaker of the dovecote. In it is a simple bed covered in furs, and on either side is a smaller bed for the two peacock kelvic. A vase in the corner is full of peacock feathers. There is also a brazier and a polished copper mirror hanging on one wall, next to an armoire. The dovecote itself is loud, noisy, and often smells, leading to very unglamorous work. More often than not, both kelvic will help with the work. There are a total of 5 peacocks (including the kelvic) and nearly 50 doves. Decorative peacock and laughing dove feathers can be bought here, as well as fertilizer. Price: Male Peacock feather: 2sm each Laughing dove feathers: 4cm/ounce Fertilizer: 1gm/lb NPCs: Sunee : Name: Sunee re Bisret Race: Eypharian Title: Caretaker of the Dovecote DOB: Summer 15, 495av (17) POB: Ahnatep Skills: Birdkeeping - 82 Singing - 22 Seduction - 17 Persuasion - 36 Gardening - 34 Agriculture - 15 Sunee considers herself a step ahead of most Eypharians her age. With her job, providing fertilizer to the House of the West Winds and anyone who can afford it, she has saved up a lot of money. Money that she can spend on fancy clothing and expensive perfume for both her and her bondmates. She considers herself refined, area of work put aside, and can often be seen conversing with West Winds nobles about her business. Mo'lae : Name: Mo'lae Race: Kelvic, Peahen DoB: 509 AV (3) PoB: Ahnatep Skills: Agriculture - 15 Gardening - 21 Botany - 32 Childcare - 38 Hunting - 14 "You want to win my love? Impress me." Mo'lae has a simple beauty. Her stringy blond hair is often messily braided in the front and shoved into a bun in the back. A peacock feature decorated the style, holding the bun together. Extremely long eyelashes are a more interesting sight than the constantly moving eyes that match the sand. Mo'lae decorates her eyelids with the colors of her animal form. As a human, Mo'lae can most often be found naked. As a Peahen, she lacks the beautiful colorings a peacock would have. She is bonded to Sunee. History: Mo'lae was born and raised in Alvadas as a child of two Kelvic who were only brought together to make more Kelvic. Her life was easy, and she was a companion to her master's daughter, attempting to cheer her up and love her as the girl grew ill and eventually died. Grief stricken, the master gave Mo'lae to his sister's daughter, Sunee. Facts: Lack famous colorings Long eyelashes Adoration for shiny objects Love of bugs Noisy! Docile Very motherly Credit to Capricious Emin : Name: Emin Race: Kelvic, Peacock DoB: Spring 76th, 508 AV (4) PoB: Yahebah Skills: Gardening - 32 Agriculture - 25 Hunting - 17 Seduction - 54 Botany - 10 "The women love me. I do not blame them, I love me, too." Emin is a proud, conceited peacock. He enjoys showing off and being the center of attention; especially if a female is around. Other than the protection of the other gender, there is nothing more important to Emin than his looks. If it is possible, he will take more than two or three baths a day. Confrontations are shied away from. Eating bugs in both forms can seem odd to others, but Emin truly loves nature. He is an omnivore, though fruits and vegetables are more readily enjoyed. In his human form, Emin stands at roughly six foot three and is agile. Upon a large neck is an oval head. A pointed nose lies between crystal blue eyes slathered in makeup. Strangely, his dark hair retains the feather coloring and feels nearly the same. In his Peacock form, Emin is impressive. His body is forty inches long with a tail that borders on three feet in length. From the head to hip is a deep, nearly black blue coloring. His wings are brown and white. History: Emin was born and raised in Yahebah, but he eventually moved to Ahnatep because in his opinion, the Benshira were too dull for his tastes. He loved Ahnatep, so flashy and colourful as it was, just like his animal form. But he couldn't survive with his extravagant tastes, and he was never able to get close enough to an Eypharian to make a bond. Mo'lae found him half-starved in an alley and invited him with her after noticing his peacock-feather hair. Credit to Capricious
