[H-RP Event] Silvermoon City Marketplace

Please see the last page in this thread for recent event information!

Deep in the heart of Silvermoon City, sin'dorei and shal'dorei citizens were going about their business. One popped into the auction house to pick up a crate load of furs from Northrend. Another stopped to buy a bunch of flowers. Only a few paused to stare at the cluster of goblins tapping and tinkering as they set up a new fireworks shop in the Walk of Elders.

"May I ask what you are doing here?" A male blood elf with long silvery hair politely enquired, straightening his coat flaps as if he were somehow insulted by the goblins' presence.
"Putting up some shelves!" Flywheel declared triumphantly, hammer in one hand, and nail in the other. "We gotta have somewhere to display our rockets."

The man's face reddened angrily as he struggled to find a suitable objection. "I don't really think anywhere HERE wants to buy your rockets," he insisted. "You all might as well pack up and go home."

Flywheel laughed, as she shook the hammer in his direction. "What nonsense! I've heard all about your extravagant parties, your magificent balls, and appetite for fanciful treats! Flashbang Exports specialises in that stuff! Ya just wait fella, we gonna make a pile o' moolah on our opening night."

With a huff, the man resumed his walk, side-stepping a tall, dark-skinned nightborne lady who had been discreetly standing nearby listening to their conversation.

"Would it be a bother if I stood outside and sold a few fruit trays on your opening night?" the lady asked, her voice hopeful. "I could use the extra business. The city has been rather quiet lately."

A well-dressed goblin with a stylized crop of red hair intervened in front of Flywheel and her hammer with a jovial chuckle. "That'd be grand!" he quipped, offering the nightborne lady a spot of newly-swept floor just outside the window of the shop. "In fact, bring all ya elf friends. Let's make an event of it! The more the merrier." He grinned up at her. "My name's Gadric. Good to meet ya!"

Flashbang Exports, a goblin guild, will initially be running the tavern in the Wayfarer's Rest to help get things underway. If there is a blood elf or nightborne character that would like to take over this role, we will happily relinquish it to another. Flashbang will then set up a fireworks shop on the outskirts of the marketplace. The main attraction will not be us, but the local community!

Even if you do not wish to be a vendor, please come along to see the wares! We are aiming to provide at least 1 hour of interesting walk-up RP for all Horde, but especially for blood elves and nightborne. Use this as an opportunity to make new RP connections!

To honor our sin'dorei and shal'dorei hosts, a fireworks show will be held at every Silvermoon City Marketplace event, at approximately 8pm. Please come along and watch!
We have our first vendor!
