Sophitia, the Merchant bartender, can be found at The Merchants' Bar and Lounge in the House's estate. She works from behind the counter, framed by a variety of exotic liquors, serving a variety of unique food and drink to both House members and visitors to the Citadel of Prosperity.
With her freckled face, warm smile, dimpled cheeks, brilliant red curls, and emerald eyes, Sophitia is a vision of loveliness. The simple silk blouse she wears is unbuttoned slightly to show off the silver-chained, fire-drop pendant adorning her voluptuous bosom. About her slender waist is tied a plain white apron, and black silk trousers hug her generous hips.
Sophitia particularly appreciates tips and has set up a tip jar specifically for the purpose of collecting donations.
Sophitia's Wares
- Whiskey (wyrm claw shot glass) - 100gp
- Resting upon a filed tip, this shot glass is made of a wyrm's claw. The long slender curve has been hollowed out carefully and smoothed to hold a large shot's worth of liquid. The outer surface of the claw is a dull red colour and still bears scratches. The interior of the glass is the deepest of black, giving no visual hints to the contents.
- a steaming plate of artfully arranged crab claws - 480gp
- The aroma of butter and garlic wafts from this delightful dish. Eight ample crab claws have been split laterally, butterflied and arranged in a windmill pattern. A garnish of parsley rests between each, the verdant sprigs fanning out in an attractive array of colour, contrasting wonderfully with the tender pink meat.
- Rum (ornate bottle of gilded crystal) - 400gp
- This lavish crystal bottle is a work of art in and of itself. The faceted globe of the lower portion casts a rainbow hue when it catches the light, the golden caramel liquid within taking on muted shades of color. A swirling, abstract design etched into the long neck has been inlaid in gold, the lustrous metal adding an air of elegance to the container. Crafted of the same material, a walnut-sized skull of gold tops the cork, and a tag of ivory cardstock hanging by a silver thread from the neck reads 'Piratus Prismatica' in an attractive and jaunty font.
- ale (stout bottle of emerald glass) - 300gp
- This squat verdant bottle contains a murky black ale, a faint effervescence lazily rising to the surface. A faded parchment label wraps around the middle with a tower-stamped coin depicted expertly in the centre, the words 'Sovereign Stout' ringing it in glossy black calligraphy. A mushroomed cork sealed in crimson wax plugs the neck firmly, a single gold coin affixed to the top.
- ale (slim bottle of cobalt glass) - 300gp
- The bright blue hue of this slim glass catches the light, reflecting shimmering colours as the pale ale within bubbles away merrily. A grey parchment label circles the middle, an embossed section of gold depicting a towering statuesque figure, the words 'Aureus Ale' framing it in handsome block lettering. A tapered cork sealed in silvery wax plugs the neck firmly, a single gold coin affixed to the top.
- white wine (delicate crystal chalice) - 225gp
- Catching the light with an attractive gleam, this crystal chalice is a work of art. The elegant bell-shaped cup is suspended on a marble of pure gold, the twisting crystal stem below branching out to rest upon four spindly, clawed feet. The intended receptacle for the Overseers private selection, a frosted design of proud deer in regal poses encircles the base of the bowl, the pale-gold wine within making an attractive backdrop for their silvery white forms.
