What's the character limit on these puppies? Also, is it or would it be possible to 'freeze' a description on one so it can't be re-whispered? I may or may not have doled out half a dozen business cards already since buying these up...

Laphrael shows you a stiff off-white card, which she is holding in her right hand.
You can see that there's further writing on the card, in COMMON. It reads:

This card features a stylistic heeled ankle-boot whose ribbon laces unfurl into a scrollwork border of gold foil-inlaid aubergine. To the left of the image, in elegantly curling script, is the phrase "The Curvaceous Cordwainer" and signed below with flair:


~ Laphrael
Day of the Huntress, day 21 of Ivastaen, 5110.


The L behind the Laphrael

It is pitch black. You are likely to be eaten by a shoe.
