Advertising Supplement/Restaurants/Taco Folders

Taco Folders

Type: Mexican fast food delivery

Location: Uptown

Description: Taco Folders is a 24 hour Mexican fast food restaurant that deals strictly in deliveries. There is a single Taco Folders location which is unable to accept dine-in or carry out orders. How can a single location, delivery-only restaurant deal with the vastness of Mort? Simple. Reality Folding. Taco Folders was created by two enterprising young Brain Wasters by the names of Moloch and Fester. Both had recently graduated from Meny and were already growing tired of BLUE BPN’s and having barely enough money to order a pizza.

One night, after beating the crap out of a pizza delivery man for not making it to their apartment in fifteen minutes, they lamented on the lack of truly “fast” delivery on Mort. As they ate their pizza, they realized it would just be easier to Reality Fold out to get the pizza themselves. However, it would cost them FLUX coming and going. Then inspiration struck. What if the food could be folded directly to them? They could almost hear the credits rolling in. People would pay big money for the convenience of having food delivered virtually instantaneously. Thus Taco Folders was born.

The question arose of how to produce the Flux necessary for this undertaking. Moloch’s father, Shadow, is an Ebon who works in Dark Lament. Anxious to have as little to do with his Waster son as possible, Shadow bought Moloch a case of Eternal Flux Gems.

The process of ordering is simple: Fax in your order along with your address and a picture of the room you want the food delivered to. Then simply authorize the payment from your account. At the restaurant, cooks prepare your meal and hand it off to the shipping department. The shipping department is a single Necanthrope named Clarity. Clarity was a SCL 2.1C Foldship navigator for over a hundred years. However repeated trips past White Earth and out towards the Black Stump have taken their toll on his mind. When asked why he would take such a menial job, Clarity’s answer is quite disturbing. “I have seen more than any mind should have to comprehend. I have beheld the face of our universe and realize how insignificant I truly am. I seek simplicity. Once I traveled the cosmos at will. Now I provide sustenance to the people of this dead planet. Is one any less amazing than the other?” With Clarity’s knowledge of Reality Folding, an address and picture is more than enough information to send orders directly to the table of the customer.

Taco Folders has been described by The Preceptor Teeth as “one of the more egregious wastes of Flux I have witnessed. This enterprise is an embarrassment to entire society of Ebb users. If I had still had the capacity to laugh or cry, I don’t know which I would do in regards to this.” No small claim coming from the most powerful Ebb user on the planet. However, this public chastisement has served to make Taco Folders extremely profitable. Profitable enough that SLA Industries and the Department of Ebb are looking to acquire the up-and-coming business. Taco Folders is also in talks with Dark Lament about an endorsement.

A meal from Taco Folders starts at about 3 credits for a single combo meal. Larger meals will cost more and may take a few extra minutes. Meals generally take 5-7 minutes from order to delivery. However, Taco Folders guarantees no meal will ever take more than 10 minutes.

Advertising Supplement/Pharmaceuticals/ The Apothecary (Sloane's Apothecary)

The Apothecary

Type: Custom drug store

Location: Mort Central, Uptown, Suburbia, Upper Downtown.

Description: Originally known as “Sloane’s Apothecary” and still called “Sloane’s” by its regular customers, Apothecaries are now located all over Mort. Opened in 885 by Sloane McDermott, the store gained a huge following amongst the Frother population. Sloane eventually sold the company to SLA Industries who in turn sold franchises to enterprising Frother Clans. While most franchises can be found in Mort Central or Uptown, there are a few locations in Suburbia and even a few scattered in the Upper Downtown area.

Apothecaries carry the full line of SLA hard and soft drugs and for the right price, can mix “cocktails” or synthesize drugs to order. From Coffin-Cigarettes to Ultra-Violence, it can be found here. There is even a full-service liquor department loaded with Slosh and other assorted alcoholic beverages. A small section of the store carries a selection of crisps, candies and assorted snack food. A night of pub crawling in the city usually means a stop at an Apothecary at some point (sometimes more than one stop).

The Apothecary also carries a full inventory of drug delivery systems from the basic air-hypo to voice activated multiple delivery IV systems. Drugs purchased from Apothecaries are always of the highest quality and anything less than 100% purity will not be sold.

Apothecaries are in high demand amongst the party going crowd, as the employees are knowledgeable in mixing Lumo to provide colors unavailable on the common market. Not surprisingly, the further an Apothecary shop is from Mort Central and Shiver Patrols, the more “exotic” the inventory becomes. It is rumored that rarities like Shatter are available for the right price, but SLA reminds you that purchase and use of Shatter is punishable by arrest and possible summary execution.

Apothecaries are only ever staffed by Frothers, with most locations being owned by specific clans. These Frothers are generally not the typical combat junkies, but scientists with intensive training in biology, chemistry, pharmaceuticals and an understanding of what chemicals are needed for what situation. However, for security, locations employ Kick Murder trained Frothers to patrol the area and protect against anyone stupid enough to try to rob the store. More than one potential shoplifter has ended up hospitalized or worse after being “apprehended” by store security.

ADDENDUM: Requests of drugs and chemicals that carry a D-NOTICE will be immediately reported to SLA authorities and punished to the fullest extent of the law.

-Squad commandeered Shiver Patrol Van and used it to breach front of facility
-8 Thresher suits neutralized during engagement
-Explosive charge left behind to cover escape successfully disarmed by Operative Ferguson

Extensive firearm discharge within the facility, while necessary, resulted in several thousand credits of collateral damage. Review of footage shows that the damage caused was mitigated by the disarming of the explosive device, which would have likely destroyed a large portion of the facility.

Squad Fatalities: Glenn Fiddich. LAD activated and successfully revived victim.

Conclusion: BPN satisfactorily completed. Individual payout 300c/Op+substantial bonus for recovery of Thresher equipment. SCL +.0.3/Operative

ADDENDUM: Subsequent inventory of facility shows several thousand Credits of missing inventory. Suggest issuing squad follow-up YELLOW BPN to expedite recovery.

Advertising Supplement/Restaurants/ChünderHaüs

ChünderHaüs

Type: Self-Service Buffet
Locations: Multiple Uptown/Suburbia
Price: CC
Description: ChünderHaüs is a mix of new and old concepts in the area of buffet-style restaurants. The restaurant features several stations in the center. Each station is dedicated to one portion of the meal (appetizers, soups, salads, entrees, desserts, beverages, etc.). Each station features a staggering number of choices. To ease traffic at each station, food is kept on a conveyor belt that circles the station. A patron simply need to find a place to stand and the food will eventually come past him/her. When they have loaded their plates, they return to their seats.
ChünderHaüs is a member of the Racial Equality Program and welcomes members of all races. To cover the tremendous amount of food consumed, prices are a bit higher at 5 credits per person. The management has a posted policy regarding additional charges for excessive amounts of food taken or staying for more than an hour. Most patrons take the charges in stride, as the quality of food is surprisingly good.
ChünderHaüs is an extremely lively place to eat, with small skirmishes for the best selections not unheard of. As such, the furnishing is molded metal and plastic and bolted to the floor. Plates and glasses are designed to not break to a sharp edge. Ebons tend to avoid ChünderHaüses due to the noise and chaos. Naturally, Frothers and Brain Wasters enjoy the atmosphere immensely with impromptu contests of digestive prowess fairly common. ChünderHaüs is especially busy on "Orientan" nights, with calls to the Shivers to break up fights over the famous Orange Chicken an alarmingly regular occurence.
