Club Description
Shonkers is a club created in Ankh-Morpork by Kimo for item and clothing collectors of all kinds with an emphasis on aesthetics, roleplay, and frivolity. We also do some research sometimes.
Shonkers HQ
Shonkers HQ is located at Cheesemongers' Yard in southwest Ankh-Morpork and is full of rare clothes and accessories. We have HQ at 6b which focuses on clothing and has an 'pffice' for drop-offs of stuff, and a swishy new garden flat at 6a which focuses on craft, jewellery and accessories. Donations and requests are always welcome!
Helpful commands: "glance <adjective> things in furniture"

Select combinations will be on sale at the center west player stall in Goldengrove in Ephebe or contact Rauna.
- Haize Von Nacht is willing to provide Shonkers members with free engraving services (fair use policy applies!) - send her a tell if you’re a member.
- Vuniel is offering free gift-wrapping services for clubmembers. Please plan on a few alternative wrapping options (depending on Vuniel's available supplies) and/or provide the materials and inks for custom marbling.
- We are hoping to capture new clothing ideas on the page Club/Shonkers/Wishlist so feel free to use it to capture your clothing wish list - the more details the better since it will increase the chances of the item becoming a reality!
Shonkers Eye for the New Guy
As the Shonkers HQ wardrobes are overflowing with amazing finds, we are offering an awesomely aesthetic makeover service. Just apply through mud mail telling us the aesthetic you are hoping for - or leave it us! - and we will match you with one of our members who will take you to Shonkers HQ, offer you a beverage and tour, ask you a few questions and then kit you out. If you are a newbie, we will also throw in some cash and/or a valuable item or two. Makeup tips and good chat a bonus :)
Send a tell or a mud mail to Rauna or Delphini (or both to be on the safe side!). Shonkers Eye for the New Guy is open to any player young or old - role players especially welcome :)
What is in your Wonderful Wardrobe?
Our Shonkers HQ is an ever changing treasure trove - if you are interested, here’s what we are currently rummaging through (no guarantees of how up to date this is... we are a flaky and frivolous crew): Our Shonkers Spreadsheet [1]
- Huge thanks to Delphini for cataloguing!
There's a lot of stuff in a variety of furniture at HQ. It can be hard to find things! Here's a handy tip for getting around our messy office:
The "glance" command is your friend! You can "glance furniture"; you can also "glance all in furniture" though you'll get a wall of text- better to narrow it down a little. Glance black things in furniture, or silk clothes in furniture, or hats, shoes, dresses, armours, weapons, etc, so on and so forth. No need to specify which furniture, though you can if you want.

| Player Name | Requests | On Offer | Last Updated |
|---|---|---|---|
| Siddney | hugs | hugs! | 5/4/21 |
| Henrey | blue, hoopy, or plaid Hogswatch toys. In particular searching for DUCKs in these varieties. | Will purchase or trade for other toys / custom language primers/growlers | 5/4/21 |
| Vuniel | undyed furoshiki cloths (cotton or silk), dark blue kimono | marbled crafts, transcription services (Dwarfish excluded), Moonlit Market and Thieves' Guild items | 7/19/21 |
| Frazyl | black dress Reaching down to the knees, this dress is oddly heavier than it looks. Upon closer examination dozens upon dozens of thin steel threads can be seen woven into the fabric, allowing this dress to give that little bit of extra protection. While the dress is good in a protective sense, it also looks pretty good too, the black of the material not being a dead and flat black, but one which is alive and bright, making any wearer look just that bit more stylish. (no known sources outside the Shonky shop), any armour that's not on the wiki | If asked politely, I can obtain most items, but not those from (crackable) safes, Niknax or items that have to be filched. | 2021-05-04 |
| Delphini | Stygium signet ring. Anything stygium, really. Black glove. | Wizard stuff. Enchants, blorping, portals. Quilting. Money. | 17 Aug 2021 |
