This Journal has a look at Wolftian Raureifs home and diner:
Naschkatze and Tigerduke

His diners name is "Naschkatze" (literally "Nibblecat" - the word exists only in German I guess). It describes someone who loves to nibble. In English you can say someone who has a sweet tooth, but that is about teeth and not cats. It also reminds me of caries. ^^;
A Naschkatze is something cute and no matter if you are slim or bigger the word is charming and never insulting.

"Tigerduke" is the name of the whole building. Wolftian is a fan of rpgs and his username in most games is "Tigerduke".
Before he bought the house, that is located at the edge of a mountain under a huge tree known as "Giant Tree" the whole area was abandoned and only some ruins were left.
Wolftian bought the ruin and ground from a dubious blonde man.
The ruin was rebuild and Wolftian who loves cooking realized his dream of owning a diner (for bounty hunters, mercenaries, pirates, treasure hunters and outlaws).
The area is popular among dropouts of all kinds and known for its wild nature and hidden secrets of the past.

Tigerduke is definately an example of past times. Ruins around the restored building hint, that it was once much bigger and probably a castle.
One part of Tigerduke is called "Dragons Balcony". It is a green field under the Giant Tree with several ruins like a fireplace and columns. At the edge of the field are huge scratches inside the rock known as "Dragons Scratch". The scratch and the size of the field inspire fantasies about a recreation place for a dragon who enjoys the view over the landscape while resting under the tree.
The architecture
Tigerduke reflects different styles of architecture and cultures.
The half-timbered parts are inspired by traditional German houses.
The colours reflect French style.
The front of the house is inspired by rustic American style houses, while some windows and old parts are a mix of gothic and scandivian style.
The side view is also a tribute to "Candlehearth hall" a gorgeous building in "Skyrim".

Concept art and OCs
I created the images above to show the location.
As I mentioned before - I gonna create more original content and this concept art is a good step for solid content.
If you read this Journal attentively you might discover hints to new OCs.
To get you excited I gonna tell you a bit more:
1. Is a giant tree planted by giants and who is that blonde man??
2. Was there really a dragon on Dragons Balcony?
3. Whose room has a big window but no description yet?! That´ s simple:
Wolftians and Jeans "brother" who is neither human nor furry. ;)

Please tell me in the comments what you think about a tigers diner.
Maybe you would become a "Naschkatze" there, too?!  :3
