Sugar Dates & Pistachios!Back to the shops along the intersection of Market & Random. Based on a Patreon request from Mark Clover, I’m drawing up individual floor plans for a number of shops, stores, vendors, and businesses along a single market block. As I draw these, I also have the overhead views drawn out on a map of the city block as I go, so when the series is complete you can use them on their own, or as a fully mapped out block of shops.This is our fourth shop on the street, sitting on the east side of Market Street (so the street is on the left on these maps, and the storage yard is behind the building on the right) – our local fruit vendor who of course has a barker working out in the open air portion under the pergola shouting the above mentioned advertisements for sugar dates, figs, and pistachios.This is a very small shop, combining living quarters and storefront on the ground floor, with a low-ceilinged attic above used for storage (mostly of shelf-stable products like nuts). The owner brings in fruit from several farms in the area, as well as regularly importing goods via local ship and caravan traffic.The ground floor is effectively divided into four sections from left to right.First we have the open air shop space under a pergola roof to provide some shade (although no protection from rain). This is where the “Sugar Dates and Figs! Sugar Dates and Pistachios!” barker operates, and where most sales take place from wooden baskets of fruits and nuts.Next is the indoor shop where fruit that is to be protected from the elements is kept, as well as where most business is handled during inclement weather.In the back half of the building, we have a bit of storage for excess stock to be moved up front during the day, the small apartment of the owner, and a tiny garderobe with a chamber pot that gets emptied in the street every morning before business starts.Finally, in the back of the shop, we have a storage yard that often reeks of rotten fruit, where local urchins know they can pinch a few bites when needed and won’t get chased off as long as they don’t overdo it.The 1200 dpi versions of the map were drawn at a scale of 300 pixels per square and are 9,600 x 3,600 pixels (32 x 12 squares). To use this with a VTT you would need to resize the squares to 70 pixels (for 5′ squares) – so resizing the image to 2,240 x 840 pixels.[URL unfurl="true"]https://dysonlogos.blog/2024/06/07/sugar-dates-figs-sugar-dates-pistachios/[/URL]</blockquote>
