[Event] Fowl Fashion Feastday & the Flotilla Rotating Shops Preview

New Permanent Shops
The Peashirmen will dock at the flotilla soon and stay for a good long while
Check out the tent near the fishing pier, and you may find all your fishing needs!

Rotating Shops
As previously mentioned, during Fowl Fashion Feastday, all rotating shops will be docked, but after 8/5, they will close up and sail away. From then forward, the shops will appear on a rotating basis, with 1-3 ships active at most times for a random number of days.

The Merry Kraken – The Merry Kraken hosts a floating bazaar known as The Market of Lost Things, and there are several kiosks that will rotate out each time she docks. These include things like cobbling wares, snarky toys by Zetoile, new-style incense, scrimshaw, Wavedancer jewelry pouches and strand jewelry, and Wavedancer journals (including an elven clerk who might be able to create a custom journal for you).

Zupal’s Discount Armaments: Way back when I first came back as a GM, my partner in crime in all things flotilla was GM Sook. Our training project for coding was to be for fluff items sold on the flotilla — at long last, please see his creation! This is fluff-scripted weaponry.

Other Shops include:
various piratewear items, gambling-themed items, snarky mechanical parrots, stylish glasses at the Jocular Oculist, LotusWear, a mail shop with flotilla-themed items, and origami!
