Varia in Little Hades
May. 15th, 2016 03:23 pm
A relatively new local “business”, the Varia offers a multitude of services for those willing to part with enough cash.
- information extortion and trafficking,
- acquiring of various demon organs and body parts,
- finding people and beating them up or delivering your revenge (torture or making someone sleep with the fire fishes available),
- intermediating between you and smugglers,
- hiring “freelancer” criminals for you,
- offering “protection” for your club or business (this one they might contact you themselves about),
- getting that annoying hellcop off your trail,
- other less than legal affairs.
They’re also offering smuggling services themselves, focusing on ice cream, sweets and top shelf booze. Because a secret ice cream parlor in a frozen over Hell is what serious mafiosos do. They will, however, consider other requests as well, as long as you pay for it.
Now here's the fun part! By outsourcing Varia, you can get smuggled goods at discounted OOC/hellbuck prices. This is especially relevant to those who do not possess Reaping Gloves of their own. Of course, that means that your character must be willing to pay the Varia IC money/dracos for it, but the exact amounts can be handwaved. Request your goods here! *
* Note that once your discount has been granted, you still need to submit an official request to the Hellmods. We don't distribute the rewards themselves, only discounts! Once your inquiry here is confirmed, you can link it in your comment to the mod post, and pay the reduced price.
Most customers will be getting the regular price, however returning customers OR customers who possess the Reaping Gloves themselves may request extra discount. Keep in mind that the latter's availability may depend on our current funds.

"Lackey" is an entry level position available to people who aren't trustworthy or otherwise ~Varia Quality~ (which includes being awesome, knowing 7 languages and a lot of ways to kill). A handy job application can be found here.
Varia are rather eccentric employers, although they pay well and are generaly very accepting of any and all quirks despite being arrogant hobags with little patience for imperfection or disloyalty. Granted, most of the time lackeys won't be tasked with crucial jobs, but they'll still be expected to take responsibility for flubbing it.
While not actively hiring, they will definitely try to seek out promising agents and/or murderers and try to sway them into alliances. Also, we can never have too many ice cream dealers. Seriously.

So you don't want to work for the mob, but you'd like your own business or services to be on friendly terms with the Varia. Maybe even with mutual benefits! If that's the case, feel free to fill out an alliance request instead. Be ready for parley on the terms.
