Purple Pheasant

The Purple Pheasant is an apartment building in New Trashton. It is generally known to house all the worst no-gooders New Trashton has to offer, including hitwoman Vera Mona.
== Appearance ==
The building itself is large and somewhat imposing, with two black fire escapes running down either side. It is flanked loosely by two other buildings, leaving a car-sized alley on either side, and the walls are a dingy dark grey. The sign, displaying the name of the establishment and a picture of a pheasant, has seen better days, as the H is falling off. Additionally, the neon sign in the lobby window has the H flickering.
Inside, most of the decor is in a purple and gold motif, although long-term residents often change their rooms' decor, and most of the gold has faded to a sickly yellow. Although the rooms can be somewhat cramped, there is a very spacious basement. Most of the walls and rugs are blood- or vomit-stained.
== Residents ==
=== Veronica Mona ===
Notorious hitwoman and apiarist Vera Mona operates out of the Purple Pheasant when not in Sarkham Penitentiary. She actually rents two rooms and has demolished the wall between them, to make room for her hoarded belongings. She also occupies most of the basement, which has been converted into a sort of hornet-breeding facility.
=== Clusby and Gray ===
In the Yellow Butterflies short story Clusby and Gray, the two eponymous villains use the basement of the Purple Pheasant for their dastardly doings, accessed through a maintenance door. They are cleared out by the story's finale, however.
=== DJ Grint ===
As New Trashton does not have a radio tower, News Trashton presenter DJ Grint operates from the uppermost floor with a self-made radio rig. Considering this, Grint is doing very well.
=== Coughlin Quickley ===
In Colkiverse B, mercenary and no-goodboy Coughlin Quickley lives in the remains of the apartment, in Trashton-Upon-Crater, that universe's equivalent to New Trashton. He mostly uses this base to hoard weaponry and food, hide when things get scary, form impressive conspiracy boards, and cry in solitude.
== Trivia ==
* The fact that the sign's H is falling off, making it look like it says 'The Purple Peasant', references Vera Mona, the primary resident.
