	Down amongst the ale-houses and hostels near the docks there sits
a building known to every sailor of the Eastern Seas, and most non-sailors.
It is an impressive structure, four stories high with 18 balconies on the
front alone. It is THE NEST, also known as Tabolport's Home for
Wayward Women, or the BDBIT (The Best Damn Brothel in Tabolport).

	The owner of the Nest is Madame Vulovanik, a strong and spry lady of
65 years. She runs the whole show, does the books, and divies the profits as
she sees fit. Her employees include 30 female prostitutes, 3 males, and 12
bouncers. She also has made a deal with Parthenas, the mage in the look-out
tower across from the Nest, to protect the House from magical disruption of
business.

	Prices vary as widely as the customers. For five coppers, any worker
off the street can have an enjoyable romp with a lady for about 10 minutes.
After that, prices go up quickly; up to 25 gold crowns for a night in one
of the Bedrooms. Special service (as with any business) costs extra.

	Madame Vulovanik is a devout worshipper of the goddess of selfish
pleasure. (What better way to serve her than get pleasured all day and night
and fill the church's coffers as well :-). The High Priestess of the religion
often spends time in the House, relaxing and healing any boo-boos (including
STDs).

(Quick Approximation)


NOTABLE 'WORKING GIRLS'

 Black Samantha - she's black.
 Black Kate     - she's cruel.
 Cherry Blossom - any girl who is new enough to play 'virgin'.
 Temple Rose - Actually a priestess of Madame's temple, she heals
		all sorts of hurts.
 Jasmine     - prefers drug-aided encounters. She also is a supplier
		on the side.
 Jade        - a woman strictly for women
 Hugar       - a man strictly for men
 Kopperina   - working man's best friend
 Raven       - for discerning tastes, she only accepts all night jobs.
 etc.

The bouncers are divided into the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

  Rekor, Merghane, and Quinsein are the Good. They deal with customers
who have trouble understanding the house rules or have special 
secrecy/security needs for their stay. They look tough, but let's just
say that their strongest asset is their charm.

Next are the Bad, the immediate support for the front room or 'work-areas'.
If the good can't calm them down, the Bad will show them out. The bad 
include Yezar the Bloated, Jack Wispblade, and Fundor.

  Bubark, Tellim the 1/2ogre *, and Hunter are the ugly.
	Bubark is for when they want to hurt you bad for a lesson.
	Tellim is for when they want to kill you for show.
	Hunter is for when they want you to die quietly maybe a day or
		so later.


* His name came as follows.
	Disgruntled number one.
	"Oh, yea? No overgrown tells me what to do!"
	Disgruntled friend Reasonable.
	"Fine, wait for me to leave and then you tell him!"
