Random PersonParticipant1-100
SomewhereOh. I'll fill it out now.
Name: Random Person's Random Oddities
Type of shop: Odd things, old things, everything, selling.
Owner: Random Person
Assistant(s): Umbra (AE) and Gigi (CAPTCHA)
Appearance: A bit shabby looking. There's a sign hanging from a cloth cover that says Random Person's Random Oddities. The door is an, old, walnut door with an eroded, golden handle. It has one window which is covered with a black and yellow curtain. Hufflepuff colors. It's plaster is peeling and the walls really need a new coat of paint. It's the type of shop that's so tiny and squeezed in so tightly, you hardly notice it. When you do notice it, it looks like a hangout for Slytherins.
Other: We only accept wizarding money. The only thing you can't find here is a bed. Fridays, we sell Weasley's Wheezes products. We only sell those on Fridays. We do have evil artifacts from Borgin & Burkes you might want to keep your hands off.

BluebirdParticipantMaking another shop!
Name: Venus Beauty
Type of shop: Cosmetics, hair/skin products, fragrances, and clothing. (for the CB, I can give tips for makeup and hair and stuff, and draw up outfits)
Owener(s): Me! (again)
Assistant(s): None? If someone wants to help, though, they can.
Appearance (Optional, also can be changed.): Well, my shop's logo is the symbols for Venus (the female symbol) and it's on a sign on the front of the store. The building is white with pink awnings and large windows, which display products and mannequins, and also, a revolving door. Why not? The floors are wooden and there are many racks of all things girly inside.
Other: I made this shop solely because I was not paying attention in Literature today and came up with a jingle. This is it-
"We're all about beauty, we give it away, come and shop at Venus today! V-E-N-U-S! Venus is the best!"
It's stupid, but I don't care.

Icy ❄Participant12!!!
The ForestName: Magical Makings (Potions, Magicks, and more)
Type of shop: Witchcraft shop.
Owner(s): Icy
Assistant(s): Just a few hags, witches, wizards, warlocks, sorcerers, necromancers, thaumaturges (like me), pyromancers, and theurgists…
Appearance (Optional, also can be changed.): On the outside, it looks like a creaky old shack with a boarded up door and a faded sign reading "Pot.ns.and…ma.icks". If you choose to step closer, and knock on the one window that isn't boarded up, three times, the window will frost over with a layer of ice magic, then disappear. Step through into an area where cauldrons bubble, green mist fills the air, witches and wizards hurry about, and we take Galleons and Muggle (or NoMaj. I'm American, but personally NoMaj is a mouthful) money. Step up to the large, polished, dark oak counter or ask an experienced witch or wizard for a spell.
Other: We sell spells! Come to get a portal to another world, a spell to charm and enchant a friend, and more! We also make potions, and will be pleased to cook you up a bit of love in a cauldron if you need. We also cast enchantments on items (Random Person, need help enchanting those bludgers?), and have a wide selection of enchantments and spells to cast. Magical Mercenaries are available, but they can be temperamental and make you pay with your soul, so I don't recommend it.

SomewhereNo thanks! I have them shipped enchanted. I might need help with blast-ended skrewts though . . .

InktailParticipantName: Ink-Covered Daggers
Type of shop: Weapons and Armor shop
Owener(s): Inktail
Assistant(s): Anyone? Taking 1-2 assistants.
Appearance (Optional, also can be changed.): I want an appearance, but I can't focus enough to put it into words right now. Later 😉
Other: Is this ok? It would only be for things, like, say, Kyngdom, or the upcoming CB Disaster…thread.

elementgirl18917ParticipantName: The Delicious Dinghy
Makes no sense!!
Yes it does!
Oh, well. I like the alliteration.
Type of shop: Cafe/bakery
Owener(s): Me
Assistant(s): Anna, Lisbeth
Appearance (Optional, also can be changed.): A dodecagonal(Is that a word?) room with a cozy table made of driftwood on each of its 12 sides and a few more in the middle. Kind of ocean-themed, with plates, bowls, and cups that have seaglass around the edges, the driftwood on the tables, etc.
Other: There are also apartments available for rent on the second floor. Inquire for details.

Random PersonParticipant1-100
SomewhereI walk into Venus Beauty. I walk straight up to the counter and say, "I would like a bottle of pink hair dye please. Bubblegum pink."
-
Bluebird@Random Participant(I don't really know how to do this, sorry!)
I look up at my customer. She says, "I would like a bottle of pink hair dye please. Bubblegum pink."
I smile. Pink is my specialty! "One moment, please," I say, retreating to the back. I look around for a moment, until I finally find a vial of the dye in a perfect shade of bubblegum pink.
I walk back out with the bottle in my hand. "Now, for payment," I say. "I am a big fan of Percy Jackson and all mythology, as you can tell from the name of my business. If you can get me a Camp Half Blood necklace, it's a deal."

Somewhere"Of course!" I say.
"I think I might have some in my pocket."
I rummage around, discarding a few quick-quote quills and finally, draw a 5-bead necklace from my pocket. "Here you go!" I say cheerfully.

Random PersonParticipant1-100
SomewhereI'm posting another one.
Name: Gringotts
Type of Shop: Bank
Owner(s): Random Person
Assistant(s): Timeless, Snicker, Umbra, Gigi, and a few more goblins.
Appearance: A large, white and gold, building. It's built with Doric columns, eight of them, surrounding it. It has a golden archway and a golden sign above it saying "Thou shall not steal". The archway leads into a grand hall which looks like a typical bank. There are four steps, giant ones, leading to the door.
Other: Clouded Leopard and Icy, would you like a collaboration for this bank? We can be the trio that manages the bank. Our AEs and other goblins could be the bankers.

Puck and JoanParticipant14
CamelotPuck: Yippee! I made my own store a while ago; now I can actually show it off!Name: Puck's Prank PalaceType of shop: Prank and Pie shopJoan: Pies? Really?Puck: *Nods* They were really popular last time I opened shop. Some were used to eat, and some were used to prank! It was a genius idea! Galahad was mostly the one who made all the pies though; he's a great cook!Galahad: wwon.Puck: Yes; Galahad one many prizes with his pies.Owner(s): Puck, (and Galahad, but it's really Puck who owns the store. Puck runs the pranks, Galahad runs the pies.)Assistants: Joan, Ariel, Diovald, and GalahadAppearance: From the outside: it looks like a quaint little shop/cottage, that can't hold very much. The shop is located near a street, and there's a cobblestone path which leads to the door. There's a red sign on the front of the store that in cursive bold lettering says: Puck's Prank Palace. There is a window in the front, and a sign which says: "Open: hours through CB hours; closed Sunday." Although the shop seems small; once you are inside, it's larger than it looks from the outside. To the left side of the store, there are shelves everywhere filled with every kind of prank imaginable. A huge refridgerator sits slightly to the back of the store. In the middle of the store is a table with many assorted bottles. Here is where you can invent your own pranks, and Puck will help you to patent your idea. To the right of the store is a counter where you buy your pranks, (and your pies.) In the very back of the store, there is an exit sign above the door. If you go outside the door; you will see a small shed in the back. This is where Puck comes up with her latest prank ideas, (she usually comes up with one every month or two,) and then sells them off inside her store. Sometimes she lets a lucky person or two take a peek inside her shed, but usually it's sealed off to visitors.Other: The main objective of Puck's Prank Palace is to urge others to be creative. Puck and her assistants live by the honesty and truth rule, so they promise that once you have an idea for a brand new prank, they won't steal your patented prank ideas.-
Ashlee G.Participant16
The FutureOoh, this sounds absolutely awesome! Last time you were so busy with the prank store that I don't think you even got around to everyone. So it is sure to be successful!

IcyParticipantRandom Person, I will do some protective enchantments for Gringotts.
@Everyone, should we all start out with a amount of money?
Mine for my shop will be 150 CB…coins? If I want to add features or upgrade my shop I will have to spend some, and I gain some from things bought at my shop.
Let's say I needed to have a meeting somewhere and chose a restraunt, like the Spanish Galleon. Or I think that was what it was called. Or if I wanted to get some products to make my witches look more uniform in a prettier way from Venus.
Like we have it on a scale like this:
Each store starts out with 10 popularity. Each day, it earns one CB money thing for each popularity point. These are sort of like your NPC buyers. When you get something from another's shop for your shop, you gain a point.
Is this a good idea?
-
Impunity JaneParticipantI don't really get the point system, can you explain more please? I do think starting with some money is good. In the first TCCP they started with 150 dollars, so let's do that. Also, I would prefer if there wasn't a lot of magic. This was supposed to be a bit more realistic.
-
Random PersonParticipant1-100
SomewhereYay! Now where is CL???? Anyway, does that mean I have one CB money thing?
