- Approach Faust about the job.
Faust is gnarly-looking individual whose features soften into a smile as you approach.
Faust says: You're the decorator right? Welcome to Sandman's Embrace! I run the place here and, well… The decor is great as it is, but I just wanna zhuzh it up a little, y'know? Especially the foyer. There's some supplies in the corner, paint and the like. Go ahead, let your creative juices flow! I'll keep outta your way.
Faust scampers off into a back office, leaving you alone in the Hotel foyer.
- Re-paint the Hotel foyer.
(Intelligence check)
You make full use of the box of spray cans in the corner, applying layer upon layer of colorful spray paint to the lobby walls. By the time you finish it resembles an intricate mural, paying homage to all things Freebooter.
In the center, there's the distinctive 'Booter skull logo, winged on either side by lapping flames and smoking ion cannon nozzles. In the background, the system's twin stars have been rendered in a deep crimson and shaped slightly so as to resemble actual apples, as they used to look on old Earth.
Faust says: Oh yeah! That's more like it. You've got an eye for this. Keep going!
- Update the room's scent.
(Intelligence check)
In the tub of supplies you dig out some containers that look like they came from one of Taungoo's scent markets. After a few squirts you concoct an aroma sure to delight the Freebooter taste for reinvention and pushing boundaries.
- Add some mood music.
(Intelligence check)
Within segments you've rigged the lobby's decrepit public announcer to play some experimental mood music, generated by the random splicing of its various automated customer notices, set to a background beat. It sounds erratic and bizarre, but Faust is already bopping along in appreciation as he carries out some duties on his slate at the reception desk.
- Collect payment from Faust.
Faust stares wide eyed at the walls, inhaling deeply and bouncing his head along to the aural concoction blasting from the speakers.
Faust says: Now THIS I like! The Sandman's Embrace never looked, smelled, or sounded so good! You're always welcome here, buddy! Here, lemme compensate you for your efforts.
Faust switched briefly to his CORETECHS to initiate a payment, before giving you a double thumbs up as he dances across the lobby to flick on a series of advertising boards that advertise room rates to passersby in the walkway outside.
Congratulations!
