JOBS

Upon arrival, everyone is given a set of work clothes which may vary in colour but the styles shown here are the default uniforms. Note that gender doesn't matter; everyone gets the same clothing. These uniforms are only worn by employees and though depending on species and body shape the Witch may have to have them tailored, they will still distinguish employees from everyone else on the island.

Of course, depending on the job one chooses, additional uniforms will be provided. These can vary and we'll leave that up to you to decide on something appropriate for the job. A more Western area would have a more Western style of uniform, things like that. Have fun choosing!

But how does a character find and choose a job? Luckily there are job postings all over the employee quarters and there are always, always openings for any job at all. If there is a niche, it needs to be filled and the sky is the limit. If it can help or entertain customers, the Witch would give it her full stamp of approval.

The below list is not a complete list by any means! It's only meant to give some basic ideas. If you have any questions on a job idea and if it requires or comes with anything different, please feel free to ask us!
