OVERVIEW: It’s the apocalypse, and humanity has no choice but to get back to their primal roots. Before the up-rise of information and technology, people were forced to live off the earth if they wanted to survive. What I am proposing is a new shop (next door to Sam N’ Ella’s and across the street from Coaches) I’d like to call “The Farmacy”, which would be a small shop offering goods like NPC teas, butters, and balms made from various plants found around the island and homegrown herbs: aloe, lavender, chamomile, etc. Culinary spices would be available as well. Page has a Bachelor’s in Horticulture, is skilled with plants, herbs and growing various fruits and veggies, and has a small garden at her home in the Fringe. The Farmacy would also supply fresh fruits, veggies, honey (when she has honey available), and freshly caught game like turkey, deer, and pork products. The Farmacy would not only aid in keeping people healthy so they could continue to protect the community and build a life on the island, it would also help encourage more RP through trading and community building. Local business owners could purchase NPC spices for their fish or stews and residents can add a little variety to their diet buy enjoying locally grown and caught food. Employees of the Farmacy and odd-jobbers would be able to earn extra HUD cash by collecting plants, cleaning the store, and other odd jobs. I would also like to host a camping event for Farmacy employees where we could harvest various herbs and plants in the woods. Native American author Mourning Dove Salish once said, “Everything on the Earth has a purpose, every disease an herb to cure it, and every person a mission. This is the Indian theory of existence.” Truer words have never been said.

EXPERIENCE:I started in Crack den in 2007 under my first avatar, Lanie Sosa, and continued my story on Page Eames (her daughter) I have run three businesses and managed 2 gangs in two different RP communities: Crack Den and the late RP sim Perdition. I was also a criminal admin in Perdition (under Posie Cheng). I’ve always enjoyed being part of various stories and watching communities grow through RP. I truly enjoy everything about outbreak and want to be a bigger part of it. I would help other players keep their stories and their characters alive by helping them stay healthy, and encourage rp through trading, working, and scouting. Real Life-wise: I love gardening and have a lot of experience growing different herbs, fruits, and veggies. I have also made some of my own stuff ranging from teas to soaps. I prefer natural soaps, oils, and butters blended with herbs over the chemical stuff.
