[Scalvoris Town]Luna's Dream Orphanage

Luna's Dream
Image
Opened in Vhalar 717, Luna's Dream provides care for the orphans of Scalvoris Town and beyond. It is a pleasant building nestled in well kept and pretty grounds. Funded through Cally's restaurant, the orphanage makes no charge for those who wish to adopt a child, but there is a stringent process for that. The focus of Luna's Dream is to make sure that the children who live here have all of their basic physical needs met, are well fed and have good medical care. More than that, though, the aim is that all the children feel secure, cared for and are given the best start in life possible.

This means certain things; there are communal areas in Luna's Dream where all of the children and staff eat together, for example and there are large play rooms. The garden is split into sections; out the back is a fenced off area which produces fruits and vegetables. There is also a chicken coop out there. The parts of the garden which are accessible to the children have areas of seats under shady trees, outside play areas and flower gardens. Inside, each child has their own room with their name on the door. The only exception to this is for the newborns or infants who arrive; the nursery is a large room with a number of cribs in it.

The children in Luna's Dream all receive a good education, focused on giving them choices. Any visitors to the orphanage will be greeted by the large and hairy dog who lives there. This enormous shaggy creature is as daft as a brush with the children themselves and would defend them with his life. Within a few steps of opening up the wooden gate, any strangers are accompanied by the dog all the way up to the front door which inevitably is shut.

Felicia

Image
Name: Felicia Hounsworth
Race: Mixed race, predominantly human
Age: Saun, 682
Title: Manageress
Skills: Caregiving: 68, Medicine: 53, Cooking: 51, Logistics: 40
Other Information: A kind soul, Felicia is the manageress of Luna's dream, overseeing the care of the children and making sure that the place is run smoothly. She is a well organised woman who seems calm even amidst total chaos. Her hair is usually tied back and is a deep brown. She has pale skin and dark brown eyes.

Nats

Image
Name: Nats Bettes
Race: Human
Age: Cylus, 680
Title: Teacher
Skills: Teaching:76, Writing: 53, Mathematics: 51, Singing: 40, Musical Instrument: Harp 60
Other Information: Miss Nats as the children call her, is the teacher for Luna's Dream. She is a focused individual and an excellent teacher. The children seem to universally adore her; she knows every name of every child she has ever taught. Outside of the classroom, Nats is a quiet young woman who gets on with her job. She doesn't tend to socialise much, preferring her own company.

Mr Chris

Image
Name: Chris Jonson
Race: Human/ Biqaj
Age: Zi'da, 675
Title: Gardner
Skills: Gardening:70, Storytelling: 63, Unarmed: 60, Sword: 60, Crossbow: 60, Acting: 51, Athletics: 50
Other Information: Mr Chris is adored by the children. He tends the garden but, on any given trial, he is as likely to be found with a gaggle of children around him, listening to him tell a story or showing them magic tricks. He seems to be quite a dour individual yet the children bring out a side of him that is not often shown around adults.

There are whispers among the adults that Mr Chris is more than he appears. Some say that he is the son of Cassion, but there is no evidence of that. However, his storytelling is something of a legend and, there is no doubt, that he worships that Immortal.

Orphans

Please note, there are many orphaned children here - but these are ones who have been developed by PCs
Image
Name: Nicolette
Created by: Yeva
Race: Human
Birthday/Age: 2nd Saun 712
Title: Orphan at Luna's Dream
Skills: Storytelling (Competent), Acting (Competent) Art (Novice), Needlecraft (Novice), Caregiving (Novice)
Details:Nicolette is a girl who was left in the custody of Luna's Dream Orphanage shortly after her birth, abandoned upon their doorstep much like many of those who are admitted. She is a highly creative child and perhaps a bit forthcoming with blunt truths, but prefers to play games of imagination more than most. Her biggest aspiration is to become a queen, although a princess or very, very rich person - preferably a member of the merchant's guild - would suffice. Her favorite hobbies include make believe with her two best friends, fellow orphans known as Lucan and Elijah (Eli, for short).

While not an aggressive or disobedient girl by nature, she is not afraid to rally against liars and people who cannot share. Her favorite toy is a stuffed bunny, hand-knit, whom she calls 'Bert' or "Bertie', often found cradled under one arm, or ready nearby to join in any of her games as an extra cast member. She has a lot of promise as a future actress and believes Friell in the Spirit of Adventure to be 'magic".
