Jewell would attend at least one of the opening nights to try her hand at cards (she may be a bit of a hustler). If Kalamere wasn't working, she was sure to try and drag him out and be on his arm.

Duci shows up for one of the opening nights, bright smile plastered on her face and more gold than necessary to blow. She's mostly there for the drinks, eats, sights and relaxation, so she doesn't mind losing all her money.

Friday Evening Theme: Red Dead Nights

The theme of the first evening of the grand opening is Red Dead Nights. Any bets placed on red on the roulette or craps tables receive double payouts when won. Most of the decor and the lighting through-out the casino maintains a dark red and black color scheme, and the music on the dance floor is as upbeat as it is sensual.

The Drinks The specialty cocktail of the evening is a Wild Eden, a hibiscus and gin cocktail:

Your Host with the Most

Dressed to the nines in a sinfully black custom suit, Sinjin Fai is on hand through the majority of the late evening to play host. Though he doesn't participate in any of the gambling, he is there to wine, dine, and flirt his way through the crowd, speaking with anyone who strikes up a conversation.

There was no way that the Lilith was going to pass up an opportunity like this and though it likely took some convincing to pull Andrea away from the garage, she was intent on having pretty arm candy too. Breaking a typical trend of black on black, she opted for a getup of rich red and glimmering gold. Likely to make her feel better about the silver she was going to lose at the blackjack table.

The Redneck

Date: 2016-02-05 13:41 EST
Thorn was there for the fun of it. And to support someone she'd known, after a fashion, for well over a decade.

Laughter and games, drinks and food, friendly faces known, and a damn good time.

She'd bet on red through the night on the dare of it, the possibilities whispered at. Though, she lost a great deal more than she won, the redneck's laughter and mirthful cheer never dimmed.

As soon as possible she offered Sin her congratulations and hearth fire warm smiles. Maybe even a kiss to the cheek before moving on to take her chances at the tables once more.

Eden

Date: 2016-02-05 15:45 EST
It had been a long time since Eden had seen herself a Sinjin Fai, but that didn't mean she wouldn't come out in support of the endeavor. She arrived on Friday night with a handsome date on her arm, in a floor length gown of red. And heels! Somehow, she managed not to trip or make an ass off herself all night.

She caught up to Sin at some point to give her heartfelt congratulations.

And you bet she ordered a few (or more) of the signature drink with her name on it.

Ransom

Date: 2016-02-05 16:15 EST
Ransom arrived with Eden on Friday night, dressed in classic black. There were just enough red accents in the ensemble to present a unified image with the woman on his arm.

Though he didn't know Sinjin Fai personally, he was always on board to support Eden's friends. He smiled and offered sincere compliments and congratulations to their host, and he made polite conversation with the other guest, as well.

The name of that signature drink got a smirk out of him. Was there any other sort of Eden besides a wild one?

Somehow, Saila managed to talk her long-suffering boyfriend into attending the grand opening party on the Redemption with her. Well, truth be told, he wasn't all that hard to convince. For one thing, she'd never been to a grand opening party, a casino, or a river boat before. For another, the girl who was perpetually dressed in shapeless black was actually willing to wear a dress.

(...and those of you who see her every day missed it! Hahaha.)

The party was lovely, bringing a much needed smile to her face. There was plenty to do and see and try out, from the fancy signature drink to the actual gambling. Given the evening's theme, Saila naturally bet on red — she lost once and then won twice, and then she quit before she could lose again. Finding the so-called polar bear at a rare moment alone, she was sure to thank her host and congratulate him on the elegant space.

Having subjected the Irish wolf to more than enough public for one evening, the muse would take her leave when the boat docked, hand in hand and, for the first time all day, happy.

Serah Farron

She had seen Sinjin only by association to certain people but that didn't mean she wasn't one to support! And since she was neither a red or black queen, Serah arrived in purple and wore one of her best smiles for the night. If she happened upon Sinjin, he would be greeted with friendly and cheerful words of encouragement and compliments befitting the night.

Of course she would breeze by faces she knew, stealing hugs here, and snippets of conversations there, without staying in one place too long. So much to do, so little time!

Vadriel

Date: 2016-02-06 15:12 EST
On one of his infrequent visits to the city, Vadriel chose to make a rare appearance in support of Sinjin's new venture.

Though other guests might have suffered the odd shiver in his company due to the inevitable chill palpable in his proximity, he was careful to spend the majority of his time on deck, enjoying the February air once he'd offered his congratulations to Sin. For those acquainted with his particular troubles, there might be surprise in the absence of incorporeal tricksters, and likewise for the lack of period clothes. The doctor did however prefer to make an impression.

He chose a double breasted topcoat in steel grey wool, trimmed in jet fur and exquisitely tailored. Beneath, a three piece suit with the chain of a pocketwatch glinting silver across a damask patterned waistcoat of indigo to match the woven silk of the pocket square and tie against his chest. The classic ensemble was finished off with an antique ebony walking cane topped in an engraved silver handle.

Mesteno

Date: 2016-02-06 15:44 EST
Mesteno arrived (with company) to investigate the Spaniard's new enterprise, put away a few drinks and shirk his antisocial habits for an evening. Whether he succeeded in that was debatable, but he added to Sin's takings with the usual hefty bill at the bar and some abominable losses at the tables, where he hadn't the faintest idea what he was doing most of the time.

His attire was not in keeping with the red theme, but he'd enough in his hair to compensate. A sleek black and silver ensemble of unconventional cut paired with glossy leather gloves. He remained uncomfortably presentable for the evening right up until he braved the outdoors, at which point all hope was lost.

It wouldn't take long at all for Purple to get him to come. In all honesty, she just needed to expression interest and he was ready to go. She, on the other hand, took a while to find clothes. They found a lot of dresses but none she wanted to wear. He was patient and went from store to store in tow until she found the one.

She had hair and makeup all he did was use his body trimmer, pull back that hair, and took a shower. Boom and done. While she finished getting dressed he played Xbox, when she was busy finishing up putting on clothing he finally went to find a suit. "Honey you're dress is black, right?" Asked in that native tongue. She said yes, he reached in randomly and pulled one out.

Put it on, found a watch, then went to get the car ready while she admired her work. Once he pulled it around and got out of it to let her in, he slapped her bottom and told her she was beautiful then whisked the two of them away to the riverboat.

Fingers laced with hers as they stood near the edge of the boat railing looking over it. He nuzzled his lips onto the back of her neck then nipped her ear. "'av oi towl yer dat yer are beautiful yet?" Told her again, and would proceed to tell her a few more that night.

The Birdborne

Date: 2016-02-06 20:31 EST
Luck was on the devils side tonight.

The blackbird arrived as a cutting-edge Bathory in the color red and on the arm of a no-name man who the bestial Lola did not introduce to a single soul. He would not speak even if spoken to.

Lola remained at a blackjack table for most of the evening, swathed in cigarette smoke with the shadow of her arm candy looming near her right. Remaining a sentinel that was caught in the dark spell of the birdborne.

Sira

Date: 2016-02-06 23:51 EST
It wasn't really Sira's thing, but she gave it a shot anyway. She purposefully tried to avoid the people she knew well, and only stayed long enough to lose some money at cards.

Lucy Mitford

It took Lucy's housekeeper the whole week to convince her to go out. But by the time Friday rolled around, the redhead had a dress lined up and her accessories all picked out. After all, a good outfit is the best armor.

She came without an escort, gambled liberally but not excessively. Her ghost followed her at a distance (assuming the boat wasn't warded) although his outfit was fixed, stuck wearing that ladies' white scarf soaked in blood. If the boat was warded, he waited for her dockside, lingering with the other lost souls while Lucy enjoyed her life and the company of others.

Choosing black to Lilith's red. Andrea would be a frequent guest at the blackjack table throughout the night. Waving over drinks when she could and losing whatever she put on the table more often than not. Booze and gambling. It's a good mix.

Friday Night saw TRASH take the stage. Michi also found her love for slot machines.

Misery was convinced that coloring her hair made her look older, but no one particularly paid the teenage drummer of Trash too much mind for sticking around after their set. Rhydin after all. Who can tell how old someone is by their appearance?

Greed was, of course, in the cards for the weekend. Ever the overachiever, Antonia took it upon herself to see how many more of the seven deadly sins she could partake in during the given timeline. She does enjoy a challenge.

Following right behind the beautiful green he had choose to come. Currently he was blowing up some balloon animals to form another cat still not getting it right. "Dang it." POP! Then tried again with another balloon.
