Creeper Cove

Creeper Cove™ is a Ralkish fast-food chain based in Chothral. Owned by Calvin Crawler, Creeper Cove™ is a major source of income for Chothral as well as Ralkeis as a whole—there is a strong Creeper Cove™ presence in Halcyon, as well as outlets in Equis, Krolesk and Akarv. Creeper Coves™ are generally placed in poorer, urbanized districts, where poverty levels are higher and cheap food is more appreciated.
The mascot of Creeper Cove™ is Short-Fuse Fred the Friendly Creeper™, a temperamental "kreeper™" featured in a series of short skits in which he attempts to tolerate something extremely annoyed. In each, he promises initially to avoid losing his temper, but is tested repeatedly until he at last explodes™.
== Legal Problems ==
Creeper Cove™ has been the subject of multiple lawsuits, and has also filed a few of its own for alleged use of trademarked entities (such as a small store in Krolesk that was selling plush creepers, claimed by the Cove™ to be kreepers). Usually Creeper Cove's™ lawsuits are unsuccessful, but their target usually backs down before they go to court. Often, their target is in fact driven out of business by the lawsuit, since Creeper Cove™ favors targeting smaller entities.
When Creeper Cove™ itself is targeted, it is usually for the excessively unhealthy food. Creeper Cove™ is known for its wide array of "secret ingredients". When questioned, however, Creeper Cove™ always claims that the meats are "good, organic, plumped-up domesticated meatpossum™", an old culinary delicacy from the Old World. This claim is made no matter the location or context. Even about the Greasy Guppy Delight™, a dish consisting of multiple fun-sized™ fishburgers that are in turn breaded, fried, covered in cheese, and put inside a burrito.
So far, Creeper Cove™ has managed to avoid major legal damaged, in particular taking advantage of Akarv's strong free market values.
== Political Significance ==
Vyros both values Creeper Cove™ for its strong global presence and fears Creeper Cove™ for the income it brings Chothral. Calvin Crawler has thus far remained entirely neutral on the political front, but his homeland makes many very wary.
Creeper Cove™ has been the impetus behind some nations seeking to pass laws to mandate standards of healthy eating in commercial restaurants.
