Negav's Magical Toy Store

Hopefully your shop owner won't turn out like Merlin in "Merlin's Shop of Mystical Wonders" and start giving out cursed, evil toys to children and such.

Nya, I'll try to avoid that.

I've never seen that movie so I don't know what you're envisioning. All that I can suggest (without feeling like I'm shamelessly self promoting) is making the owner an Elf from Iracal Island. The city he grew up in, Atomata, is teeming with artificial life, aka constructs. Contructs serve the people, entertain the people, and even defend the people. It's a place where rodent control is handled by constructs the shape and size of insects, or cats. If you can imagine a place where the emphasis of art and engineering is THE defining trait of the people, that would give you an idea of how good of a toymaker this elf could be.

It's just an idea. As far as I know, construct makers aren't very common (and I hope I'm not going overboard by having a city full of them). As for his trust of young vs adult people, well, that might be best worked out in a story.

I must ask, is this Iracal Island a Felarya thing or a gt500 thing?

The idea for this city of elves is mine, it's not in the wiki but I don't think it has to be if you want to use it. I thought having the store owner travel to Negav from Atomata might provide him an interesting background. It actually fits, in my very humble opinion.

By no means am I trying to promote the idea just because it's my idea.
