◣ Nostalgia Nook ◢

In the heart of the Lower District,
In the center of a cluster of shops,
There is a small area called the Nostalgia Nook.
What's inside there? Well, see for yourself.

As of 12/25/10, Vatheon has grown a new area that shifts and changes as much as the rest of the city does. Shops appear and disappear on a whim and in the center of the circle of shops always reflect the mood the city appears to be in. When it's happy, you will find a small park area with an even smaller koi fish pond. People who come into the area will find themselves suddenly extremely happy and full of cheer. On the other hand, when the city is sad, people will find a broken down playground, dangerous for children and adults alike. There may be rats that will bite you or broken pieces of metal strewn about. Anyone entering this area will feel extremely sad and lacking hope.

But that's not the main part of the Nook!

The main part is the shops. When characters enter the stores they will find that some seem awfully familiar to them. These are shops based around character's home worlds, bringing items from there and even small pamphlets giving a synopsis of what that world is like (all purposefully vague of course, other characters won't be able to get secrets about others from it). All sorts of things can be found there, it's up to YOU, the player, to describe it below.

As of 2/6/11, things in Nostalgia Nook are no longer free. They cost Starfish Tokens, which may be earned throughout the city, through all sorts of jobs or tasks. More information can be found here and here at the FAQ!

Fill out below the little form below describing your character's stores. If more than one character shares the same homeworld, comment underneath that character's original comment to avoid spam and duplicates.

Please keep in mind that other characters might not agree with your shops or that it might cause confusion later on in the game. Be responsible with your shops and when the entire canon leaves Vatheon, the comment will be deleted. Have fun, and enjoy!

Series: Tales of Vesperia
Shop Name: Fortune's Market
Shop Description:

Generally speaking, Fortune's Market is one of the five Master Guilds, and has members in almost all of Terca Lumireis' towns and cities. There's only one merchant to deal with, usually carrying a pack on his or her back and a small stall set up with some goods on display. It's built into a wall, with a small sign showing a handful of black bottles, and a black blobby thing on a yellow background.

The merchant sells a variety of items, and you can synthesize items if you have the right ingredients – which unfortunately are harvested off monsters that aren't in Vatheon, so Synthesis isn't available.

In general, he will sell:

A variety of Gels and Bottles for healing (Apple and Lemon for physical wounds, Orange and Pineapple for healing MP/SP/TP, Melange and Miracle for a mix of both, and Lottery if you want a chance of full heal or barely heal), a selection of weapons; blades - oversized and normal sized -, axes, spears, hammers, staves, 'wands', scarves and belts, chains and whips, light and heavy sword-bows, daggers. There's also a selection of armor, and strange things called Attachments.

For hilarity's sake, the "Memo" is attached to the item on a small tag.

(I'll update with better pictures/more Attachments at some point, shhh.)
