I was in the Crossings Empath Guild last night to get a small cleanup, and it was quite late. Because of the hour there were not too many empaths on duty, so understandably there was a wait.
Well after a couple of minutes, lil miss Caelumia starts scowling and complaining, "I did not come here with the intent of spending an anlas just to get a few scrapes and scars taken.", and then, "Sister wonders why I hate her guild, here's why.".
I told her to stop whining and eat some cebi. Her reply was that she hunted rats and couldn't afford herbs.
You see Caelumia Y'laeth, an Elven Moon Mage.
She has pointed ears and silver-flecked blue-grey eyes. Her silver-gilt hair is long and fine, and is worn loose, tucked behind her ears. She has fair skin.
She is young for an Elf.
She has a tattoo of an iron rose with razor-toothed leaves on her wrist.
She has some faint scars along the neck, faint scuffing to the left leg.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a S'lai short bow, a deep crimson sheath, a black leather ankle sheath, an etched crescent-shaped cambrinth moon pendant, a soft colorful haversack adorned with gauzy ribbons and crystal beads, a dark grey messenger's satchel reinforced with thick black leather, a delicate nightshade circlet, a tarnished silver ring bearing the crest of the Moon Mage Guild, a finely-tooled short quiver, a black leather bullwhip, a belt of heavy beaten gold medallions etched with a sunburst design and linked with tiny brass bells, some fitted shadowy black sandals with detailed straps, a ruched black velvet garter with glittering crystal beads, a strapless black silk corset trimmed with a flirty jade fringe and a night-black skirt woven from fine gossamer accented with gold beads.
Riiiight, you have two or three shifts, a tattoo, and dozens of plats worth of fluff, but you are still hunting rats, and cannot afford a couple gold for herbs? Yer ridiculous claim that "its all my mother left me in the world" caused more than a few snickers also.
No one likes waiting around to be healed, but no one has to heal you either. And acting like immediate attention is required for your two small scars is asinine. Hodierna help the poor empath that does heal you, you'd probably toss them a copper and a smile. Act like a spoiled brat, you are going to get treated like a spoiled brat.
