The air was just as stale always except one thing, the smell. Wicks had always had better air than everywhere else due to the various vendors and shops that sell a multitude of cuisine from all over Blackwall. Everything from Borgard steak to Papple fruit. All the cooking and spices also contributed to the smell. It was certainly better than the old air of the wasteland. Wicks wasn't just a town full of food vendors though. It also was full of men women and children selling all sorts of trinkets and services. Despite all this the local shops are well kept and thriving. There were many little shops here and there but the notable shops in town are the Polished Sprocket, a family owned mechanics shop famous for working on droids from all over, The Castle rock Inn, and the Delaware Drunk, a tavern of sorts that usually holds a large assortment of people and is famous for its light alcoholic drink:Black Rock which is a sweet, alcoholic and fizzy beverage that makes the ice its served with look black.
The dark of the sky was illuminated by the lights of the various homes and shops that seemingly never close. Strangely the roads were not as packed as usual. Most likely because of recent events. The mood of the town seemed to be sadder than usual. After all Jeremiah was a big name in the town along with Milford. the recent news had shaken the town which means that many people are either going to be down or cranky. Despite this the businesses we still open still selling. Most of the actual inhabitants were workers in the town, most people wouldn't want to live in a place like Wicks unless that is where they worked or one of their family members worked there. from what our heroes could remember there were three unofficial powers in the town, each a family that ran the biggest business's in wicks. The Grimwald family that ran the Castle Rock Inn, the Burks that ran the Delaware Drunk and finally the Deckers that ran the Polished sprocket. each family had a certain influence on the people in wicks even if they never really let anyone else other than family run their businesses, with The Deckers having the least amount of influence and the Burks with the most. even though they had an influence on the people the actual government assigned and elected governor held the power however he does consult with the families once a month in order to hear what the people are saying.
In the midst of taking in the scenery the Heroes had noticed a small group of 3 lightly armed Policemen and two other people. one of them was an older man in his fifties and a the other a young girl about seventeen to eighteen. the old man wore and old leather long coat, beaten up jeans and a white button up shirt that was stained after years of wearing it. he also wore a wide brimmed fedora and had a large white beard and thinning hair. the young girl wore a green long sleeved shirt with the sleeves she rolled up to her elbows and blue overalls that leached just below her knees. she also had a plastic star on her shoulder that had the words "Deputy" engraved on it. however the most striking part of her attire was a large red hoodie that had a metal with the symbol of "Clairvoyance" engraved on it. the two dots under it meant that she was a moderate Clairvoyant making her able to see into the future by holding objects that have recently have something of note done to it such as a murder or theft making her a very good deputy to this man.
"Hello there sir we got a notification that you were her and I thought I would stop by to see if you had picked up a special passenger, if not then to meet a legend. But from the looks of it you already did. my name is Hunter Crowley and this is my deputy Lydia Fletcher." Hunter said outstretching his hand.
OOC: This picture is a complete representation of the characters save for a few key details like Lydia and Hunters hat and Hunters Beard is smaller that what I immagined him to have.
