Koh Tatarigami

------❀------

Age: 21+Name: Koh'to TsubhwyhraOrientation: Pansexual (male preference), poly, switchAlignment: Chaotic neutralLocations: Shrine: Goblet Ward 13, Plot 60Job: Shrine Keeper, Tea Maker, Poison Master, Hingan-trained servant, Courtesan, MasseurSkills: Eastern martial arts, small blades, hidden needles, general spookery, Watercolors, Alchemy, Tea making, Massage Therapy, CompanionshipDescription: Smooth dark skin marks this one as Keeper, or at least formerly. His dark hair and plush tail shine with care, his work keeping them impeccably silky appreciated by admirers and friends. Amid the darkness shines a bright, golden gaze, matched by gold adornments that tend to stand out no matter what he chooses to wear. A mellow and calming mixture of herbs and teas tend to cling to him, sometimes even the traces of the lotions and oils he had used or made that eve. Those who venture closer are greeted often with a warm smile or an excitable 'Hello', depending on his mood. He enjoys spending his time satisfying his curiosities. Tasting the new candies. Trying a new drink. Or simply running around in a fit of zoomies. Profile: A new life and a new Koh. So far from who he used to be he has cast those memories and those troubles aside to embrace the new. Often an excitable one he can be seen running around happily, living his best life as he tries new things and makes new friends. While his nature begs him to feast, his heart still calls on him to serve, and so a compromise... Koh offers calm and relaxation to those that seek him, in trade small traces of aether cast off during the acts are drawn to him to feed his needs. At times he simply has to ask, 'Let me take this burden from you', and the aether of what did trouble will be granted freely. A potentially temporary solution but even small moments of relief are welcome when one endures such burdens of the heart and mind too long. He's 'other' friendly, seeking friendships or partnerships from ones not traditionally viewed as savory. As an unsavory one himself at time, he tends to view others as having potential to go either direction, granting the chance to show their alignment before offering judgement. The more powerful the better tendency to be tasty, 'danger snacks' he to call them in his curious way.

Alchemicals

To select clientele that have earned some level of trust, Koh might offer a selection of alchemicals he himself uses. The potions are made from certain plants or creatures he cultivates and collects so that his stores can be continuously replenished. Most of his selection are based on ancient Hingan ingredients and recipes passed down through generations, some only available to certain clans, though he has slowly learned more and expanded his collection over the cycles.------❀------Custom CreationAt times it gets suggested for a blend of effects to be created for a needed purpose. Or perhaps a new creation is needed by request for someone? This can be attempted and tested before the sale on request. Perhaps he already has ideas on how to go about creating this? Or, perhaps he must go searching for a way to make this... The time needed for these creations will vary as well as the price, depending on the rarity of ingredients and the time taken to produce such concoctions.Price: Variable------❀------Custom Delivery SystemDarts, weapon coatings, drinks, lotions, oils, and many other methods can be offered for the delivery of these effects. So often what works for one will not work for another and so new methods have been created to accommodate a varied customer base. A simple needle undetected, or a spiked drink in a carefully calculated moment of inattention. All can be catered to and accommodated now.------❀------

Effects

The potions are made to a tar-like consistency with the original intent to coat blowdarts, making a single coated dart the average dosage. Though the potions are typically sold by the dart in packs of five, the potions can also be dissolved into liquids for additional ways to inflict them. These darts are made of cactaur spines and suitable for the blowgun he sells, any other might need to have the cotton boll's size adjusted to fit.------❀------Blowgun KitSome simple blow gun supplies can be purchased for those curious about the art. Designs are meant to be discreet and easy to conceal, made from bamboo with a focus on easy use. The kit comes with a blowgun, 20 cactaur needle darts, and a quiver. Authentic Hingan craftsmanship.Price: 30,000 - 1 kit------❀------PainScorpion's Sting - This red-colored substance, when injected, will spread an agonizing pain out from the site of injection to a fulm or two at most. Such pain would not be forgotten soon.Price: 10,000 - 5 dartsWasting Rot - As a corrosive agent, this brown-colored substance once injected begins to break down flesh and muscle within the localized area. The necrotic corrosion spreads out slowly from the injection site until losing effect a fulm or less from the point of contact. A painful and terrifying process.Price: 10,000 - 5 dartsWander Not - The venom of a certain spider gives a powerful lesson in pain, intimately so. One drop is often enough for the lesson to linger for bells, the victim erect and in in agony until such time has passed. One can be certain another lesson will likely not be needed in the future.Price: 10,000 - 5 darts------❀------CharmSerpent's Gaze - A shimmering red substance, this toxin leeches into the brain to make the victim more suggestible to requests. The level of suggestibility is completely dependant on the amount used, a single drop being the standard dose for the average person, which leaves the victim in a mild stupor and easily pliable to most basic requests. The victim has the potential to rebel at this dosage providing they are adamantly against what is being suggested.Price: 20,000 - 5 dartsSerpent's Scales - This milky substance shimmers with a pearlescence and on injection bleeds into the brain to deliver a subtle stupor. A seemingly faint absent-mindedness becomes a change in feelings or emotions when suggested by another. Potential changes in memories can be coaxed, particularly memories based heavily on emotion.Price: 20,000 - 5 dartsLustful Meanderings - For some lust is simply the desire for another physically. Though, for others, it's a deep bloodlust that can only be sated by bloodletting. And still, others find lust for wealth, fame, or possessions. This poison strikes each differently depending on their heart's desire. Sometimes where you thought your desires would be sweet and tender you find a secret monster waiting...Price: 10,000 - 5 darts------❀------

------❀------HallucinogensWaking Nightmare - A dark-colored substance with a faint pearlescence. A single drop of this dredges up one's deepest fears, or perhaps the most recent fears to strike terror in the victim. Certainly a memorable experience.Price: 10,000 - 5 dartsA Memory of Death - An inky black substance of rare origin. This substance draws the victim into a very real-seeming and gruesome memory of dying, dredging them up from somewhere to trap the victim into the hallucination. Some swear they feel as though they are dying right along with the memory, the mentally weak might even succumb to the hallucination and die, body giving up fighting the terrors of the mind.Price: 30,000 - 5 darts------❀------SleepBad Night - As a simple mixture of grey color this toxin puts victims into a deep and dreamless sleep, often leaving them to wake up some bells later feeling as if little time has passed. Very little is capable of waking the victim up once put to sleep. A restless time with some disorientation left to the victim upon waking.Price: 10,000 - 5 dartsPlace of Forgetting - A pale pink substance with a hallucinogenic effect. A light and enchanting hallucination will slowly draw the victim into a deep sleep. In this time their memories of the happenings from before the poison took effect will be forgotten or perhaps remembered only as an odd sort of dream with the fuzzing and fantasy that comes along with dreams.Price: 10,000 - 5 darts------❀------Anti-MageMage's Folly - A dilution of a more deadly poison with a mixture of another. This deep purple substance drains the victim of their aether, potentially to the point of death if too much is used or their aether pool is very small. In addition to the rapid drain, this substance also severs the ability to cast so long as it's in effect. Effects typically last a few bells at most.Price: 10,000 - 5 dartsDead Silence - A deceptively simple poison though deadly to ones who reply on magicks for protection and offense. Not only does it silence a user of the aetherial arts, but it will also cease any attempts to use them in any way for a time. One's aether becomes unusable to this end and in this way perhaps such becomes a deadly poison.Price: 10,000 - 5 darts------❀------ParalyticsFugu's Gift - This pale yellow substance is extracted from a particular fish that also happens to be a delicacy when it's prepared properly. Its toxins are widely known to paralyze victims' muscles, leaving them conscious and able to feel everything that happens to them.Price: 10,000 - 5 dartsJellyfish's Spine - A colorless substance with a strong pearlescent shimmer. One drop of this numbs the body and paralyzes the muscles, leaving the victim unable to move or feel anything.Price: 10,000 - 5 darts------❀------DeathVarious Methods - There are almost too many methods to deliver death to a victim to recount. Ones suited to a gruesome or horrific display to teach lessons to the ones left living. Ones that are quiet and easy to confuse for a natural cause. Simply speak one's needs to Koh'to in a discreet fashion and he will offer suggestions and eventually his poisons.Price: 20,000 - 5 darts------❀------

Other Services

Koh is well trained in many arts that assist others in easing into a more relaxed state. He advertises these arts in the places he is employed and at times when he is talking to one that seems they could use such talents. If one is seeking Koh to purchase his time for the purposes of relaxing they may find him in his shrine or lingering out and about. Though he is not always working appointments can be made for later times in quiet places.

------❀------Oils, Lotions, Shampoos, OintmentsMassage oils and bathing supplies are hand-crafted by Koh himself, sold separately to those seeking such for their own ends. Various scents and ingredients can be added to create the needed effect. A gentle sting to an oil for those favoring a sharper taste. A tingle and a chill for those seeking the cold. Still learning and experimenting, he has found it to be not so different than his more secretive trade.Price: 5,000 - bottle------❀------MeditationWith the right scent and some softly spoken words, Koh can assist one in a gently guided mediation. A sitting and spoken meditation or one involving movement and breathing can be offered. Or, perhaps something tailored to the individual if Koh has an idea for this.Price: 50,000 per bell------❀------CuddlingSometimes a client just wants to be held and feel warm and safe and for a small fee Koh can provide this. A warm, fluffy blanket and a low fire on a snuggly couch. Time to feel at ease and sink into relaxation in the arms of another. Touch is a powerful sensation and much needed in one's daily life. A balance of comfort to counter the harshness of the world.Price: 75,000 per bell------❀------MassageWith a pleasantly scented oil and a quiet warm place, the low lighting and strong, sure hands help lull one into a deep sense of relaxation. Whether one needs to work out some lingering pain carried in a tense location, or simply to be pampered and relax after a long week, either can be accomplished by Koh's skilled hands and quiet manner. Happy endings cost extra.Price: 100,000+ per bell------❀------Relaxing BathA pleasantly scented shampoo worked gently into the scalp. The soothing scent of the soap as the sponge lightly scrubs at bare skin. Candles and warm waters in the low light to ease away stress and attentive hands to pamper. A small price to pay for an experience designed to make one feel like royalty.Price: 100,000 per bell------❀------Intimate ReleaseWhile relaxing is always the goal, the method of going about that can sometimes be vigorous. A release can very much relax the body in ways other methods can not. For a price one can purchase the intimate use of Koh's body to achieve such relief. While Koh has his preferences, he can be willing to accommodate the preferences of others if so inclined, and paid well enough. Negotiations and conversations on the method will be discussed before the price, and the price will be adjusted depending on the method requested.Price: 200,000+ per bell------❀------
