The Alley Cat was a potion shop in the Woodlands during Dragonhollow's Second Era. It was owned by Smitten.
It was located on the east side of Redwood Gardens in the commercial district. The shop was constructed from white chiseled marble with black windows and a spruce wood roof.
The Alley Cat was fully automated. Customers were shown the price of an item and could check the availability of individual potions at any time. Purchases were made by dropping the proper currency into a hopper, at which point the redstone brewery in the bowels of the shop would mix the potion's ingredients together and eject it from a hidden dispenser, playing a confirmation tone from a noteblock. Non-currency items dropped were secretly stored for review by Smitten, who could then discard them via a sewer that emptied below.
The lower levels contained redstone machinery, a nether wart and melon farm, the sewer, and vas storage banks. They were accessible only to Smitten and his friend Tox.
On the roof was a tiny stable for two horses that Smitten had bred to be able to jump that high, keeping them out of harm's reach. One was his own and the other belonged to Tox.
The store's primary competition was the Redwood Cafe, but he made his offerings more lucrative by selling better potions for the same prices. Unfortunately, the path there from the city's downtown was difficult to find and the docks routinely had no boats due to thieves, so business was not as steady as he'd hoped. When Cary's megaportal gold farm in Nutville crashed the economy and led to inflation, Smitten kept his prices fixed and introduced an era of exceedingly cheap potions.
The Serkrs exclusively used speed potions purchased at The Alley Cat when traveling their 22km Redwood Road.
The Alley Cat was a popular location for violent ambushes by local bandits, including Calp0l's thugs as well as E1ite and the Headhunters.
