Ok, so I'm thinking it would be interesting to play a small businessman -- in this case, a magic shop owner, who also is a bit of a wizard or sorcerer or whatever magical using type name is appropriate for the setting.
I imagine he is located South of Market (or in some sort of really bad neighborhood) where on a single city block there is the magic shop, an antique shop, a used book store, a dive bar, a soup kitchen and some other oddities. The diverse low end businesses actually surround an old grove or maybe a fairie ring or some ancient gate. The various shop owners are actually the hereditary protectors of the site. And naturally it lies upon a ley line nexus or some such that draws trouble it's way.
Or not. Is this the kind of thing you want us to do?
