I am opening up an 'Arms and Armour Emporium' in the trade district of Baldur's Gate and I want to have better quality areas than a stock store. This is related to the Sea Tower of Balduran project. I am just looking for two areas for a small shop with two stories in the trade district of Baldur's Gate.

Here is the 'speech' that I gave over in the Sea Tower of Balduran forum of Spellhold Studios that spurred myself to act upon this store for high quality arms and armour:
"The Arms and Armour Emporium of Baldur's Gate! This has always bugged myself for any two bit small time arms and armour merchant sequestered under a rock is usually on par with what can be found upon the store fronts of Baldur's Gate! I seen the work done with the merchants and the intention behind them in between the lines. Perhaps it sparked a latent urge to right that niggling issue that has always been there with my thoughts on the Original Baldur's Gate. The city of Baldur's Gate is one of the largest settlements of the Heartlands and is situated dead smack in the middle of the Sword Coast; an area infamous as the 'wild west' of Faerûn. This is a savage frontier and to the north there are the Fields of the Dead and the Troll Claws, there are bandits everywhere just crawling out of the woodwork (quite literally). Now more than ever with the Iron Crisis afoot the affluent people of Sword Coast will turn to the rich trading port of Baldur's Gate for a more convincing edge and a more stern suit of armour as imported goods and magic does not fall victim to the Iron Crisis. There is a dire need in the heavy and infectious air of terror emanating from a city on the edge for the people to bulwark themselves to the coming trails and tribulations of the day. Dark whispers shroud the shuttered atmosphere of the city. There is grip of fear upon the minds of citizens to go out late at night for people are going missing. Bandits and thieves are everywhere inside and out. The iron is no good in their arms; shattering asunder like metallic glass. The future of Baldur's Gate, neigh the entire Sword Coast hangs by a single thread. There is an uneasy sense of dread in the air among the people of Baldur's Gate about a potential coming war with Amn; the gloom hangs thick in the air of Baldur's Gate like the pestilence that clings to a corpse. More than ever right now is the the time to sell arms and armour by the cart load! People will pay the premium to safeguard their lives, families and homes from the brigands and marauding hordes of monsters that plague the Coast Way. Ship it in from Waterdeep, ship it in from Athkatla, ship it in from the Moonshae Isles, hell even ship it in from Calimport if they are willing to pay the price!"


The Arms and Armour Emporium location in the trade district of Baldur's Gate.


With this as the basis for first storey. Front door moved to the center of the bottom left wall. Stairs added that start in the center facing north east and turn up north west and around the front desk. Also the purple rug looking less like a door mat (have it back from the wall perhaps?). Forge area with assets from the Thunder Hammer Smithy in the back room.


This is the basis for the second storey of the Arms and Armour Emporium. Please make sure that the chimney from the forge on the first storey is represented on the back north east wall. Also without the south west door on the wall.


Here is the Thunder Hammer Smithy, the assets can be used to decorate and ornament the entire Arms and Armour Emporium; please 'go to town' on the place and go crazy. The second storey is for high quality arms and armour; a specialty stock section for high rollers and or adventurers like yourself. This whole store is to be the number one shop on this side of the Sword Coast for Arms and Armour.

Here is the Chimney for the forge for AR0300 (the roof can only be seen in AR0300 even though most of the building is in the Trade District).


Please have the smoky forge chimney for AR0300 be on the back north east section of the roof. @Cuv @Rabain
