I can fight and I can sing, I'm not so strong but I can easily be a jack of all trades since I'm 21 and a quick learner. What would be a cool and useful job for a blue scaley dude?
You could be an actor and perform plays by Shakespeare and such.

Feingo, I'd figure you go more for the weapons. Of coarse, you could do both, "Liquor & Guns." It wouldn't be so much an actual weapon shop, as much as an antique/gallery.

Lord Nelson, I'm just picturing you as Uncle Pennybags (The Monopoly Guy) and picturing your face on the currency with how often you say you'll back folks up and invest with them. It wouldn't surprise me to see you in a cameo discussing business with Mr. Blue.

I can see Crimson doing construction. What with his wing power and mode of flight, he could easily go from floor to floor without need of a ladder, unless there wasn't enough room for a quick jump up.

As for our shop, I believe Mystic just took over/bought out an already existing shop, though perhaps some interior decorating and gardening. Brandon, Taliesin?

When I first joined, I discussed what my occupation would be. I decided on something similar to a Victorian-era street magician, which I believe someone called a "professional magician".

I can't really remember exactly how I came up with my fursona's occupation. I had been thinking of making a native american, but I didn't think it would fit that well with the rest of Bon Bon. I think that opera singer popped into my head because I figured that it would be a classy occupation, and I was aiming for an elegant classy lady as my fursona. It might also be because I'm a fan of Nightwish, and I had been listening to their music in the days when I joined and made up my avatar. :)

Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, I did have another idea for a fursona first. And a male one actually. I actually considered magician as well, because I was thinking of a sort of silver-tongued charlatan character.

Something tells me that Bon Bon would be just the right place for something like that. Perhaps I should look for a job at the Delight Castle. :P

Auctioneer isn't a bad idea. I can picture that in Bon Bon. With engineer, I just think of one of the Royal members. I think there's one who works on steam engines, and there are of course a couple of mechanics. But that's just due to my lack of knowledge of what engineers did at that time. :lol:

You know, now that I think about it, that's not such a bad idead. Hmm, what do you guys think?

That could work; I could see you doing something like that

Yeah, it could, couldn't it. Heck, going along with what Labrn said about antiques, with Cm. Ferintons army connections, he could probably get his hands on all sorts of retired equipment. Hmmmm...

Yes, I think that "Liquor and Guns" thing sounds quite like a bit of genius.

I think it sounds slightly dangerous :lol:

I'm wondering when my ethnicity became an "occupation" all of a sudden... :lol:

Well, since I've gotten so much positive feedback... Crimson, I think we need to make a few design changes! :lol:

Crimson · Joined: 18 Aug 2007 Posts: 566

Well I'm open to suggestions. :D

For me, I'd probably do something related to swords and stuff. Particularly teaching others in the art of swordplay.

I'm sure Brandon would be honored to bring some green and colorful life to your shop. Anything in mind?
