EVENS
EVENS
Soft. Warm. Cozy.

The beep of the Watch is gentle, a considerately low sound when rousing newly arrived wildcards while a small vibration tickles the wrist. Satin sheets slide with the lazy stretch of legs. Bedding shuffles. The room is a comfortable temperature but … for some reason, it’s maybe a touch too warm? And cramped?

As characters rouse from their slumber (or otherwise blink into awareness) they will find that they are now in a shitty resort room. They have been temporarily allocated a rank 2 suite. These suites are small and the twin bed takes up the majority of the space inside. Walkable area is minuscule. There is no decor or window. All characters are naked, wearing only a white terrycloth robe knotted at the waist. No details are given other than the above message and a follow-up message explaining GAME 52.

But perhaps that’s not the most alarming part.

They’re not alone.

All characters will find themselves waking up in pairs. Not only have they woken up in an entirely unknown place, they are pressed up against and/or are cuddling what may potentially be a total stranger. Even if a pair is lucky enough to know one other ... pretty awkward waking up together like this, isn't it?

Due to holiday overbooking all characters are required to share a room while the backlog of reservations are processed. Some of these rank 2 suites may even have three temporary residents if you’re feeling spicy.

The resort is truly sorry that they overbooked during the holiday season. This is unprecedented. They have never before seen the house bring in so many new guests at once. Without even a heads up for the staff. It’s like being middle management isn’t worth it! For the sake of avoiding headaches and customer complaints, wildcards will find that each room has an included a gift basket as an apology for the inconvenience.

GIFT BASKET DELIGHTS (PLEASE DON’T COMPLAIN) ▷ Charming Novelty T-shirts: [ 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 ]
All Natural Body Care
A Luxury Candle
A Box of Holiday Cookies
12-Pack of Resort Branded Health Items

Wildcards that explore outside will find staff running around like frenzied hens. These employees will encourage wildcards to go wash up in the bathroom, a communal space with plenty of free supplies for newcomers. The communal bathroom is a clean area with multiple open showers, sinks, and water closets. Wildcards will find shelves stocked with basic toiletries and clean towels. They will also find other general bathroom amenities available for use like hair dryers, face masks, scrub brushes, combs, razors, toothbrushes, q-tips, and so on.

All facilities inside the communal bathroom aside from the toilets are open concept and there is no separation based on gender (or anything else). Everyone is expected to share.

BATHROOM MISCHIEFTHE SOAP WANTS TO DROP: Soap is slippery, but it seems as though some of the bars are intent on slipping out of hand and onto the floor. Some even shoot across the open concept showers and hit someone else. But how could soap throw itself at someone?! Are you sure you're not just looking for attention?

YOU CAN'T ESCAPE YOURSELF: As the steam from the showers rolls through the bathroom the mirrors begin to fog. Strange enough, fogging the mirrors begins to reveal some kind of message ... and not just any message. Wildcards may discover one of the worst private thoughts they've ever had written out on the mirror for all to see. Hiding it as easy as wiping away the vapor, but you can never really escape your truest thoughts.

SHAM-ME, SHAM-YOU: There are several shampoo scents for wildcards to choose from in the cabinets. One particular formula, Saltmarsh Sparrow, isn't quite like the others. This particular shampoo is designed to pair with the wearer's natural scent. Wildcards may find that they are leaking faint pheromones that incite lust and arousal in potential mates. Use too much shampoo and you may even be affected by your own scent!

YOU, ME, AND THIS COMMUNAL TUB: The communal bathroom also includes a large soaking tub that can accommodate several guests at once. There are scrubbing stones kept around the pool for guest use and jars of mud masks to wear while enjoying a soak. Mud masks will leave even the dullest skin feeling hydrated and fresh—amazing! But... what is this? The very teeny tiny font on the bottom of the jars say, "Mud will not wash off by the same hands that applied it. We recommend finding a partner to apply masks with. Enjoy!"

Some of the staff will pity these poor new guests that have had their reservations pushed out. They will show characters the way to one of the small supply closets that are used by cleaning staff. The closet is small but fully stocked with linens, extra toiletries, pillows, robes, slippers, and yellow Golden Peacock tracksuits in a full range of sizes. They will encourage wildcards to take whatever they want before running off again.

But those that aren’t careful might find themselves in an interesting predicament.

OPEN THIS FUCKING DOORWildcards may find that the closet door will slam closed and lock while they are inside. This will only happen if there are two wildcards inside the closet.

A giggle from the other side of the door is proof that it wasn’t an accident but the voice will not respond to any questions or demands. Only when asked what they need to do to be released will there will be another soft giggle and the demand: “Kiss, kiss, kiss for seven minutes!

Wildcards who abide by the kissing ghost's rule will be released promptly after seven minutes of kissing. Those that do not will be trapped inside until one of the staff members comes around and unlocks the door.

Wildcards will find that the hallways of the basement are chilly and narrow. Heading to the end of the hallway will reveal a stairwell where they can ascend to check out the main resort. Welcome to the Golden Peacock!
ODDS
ODDS
A bird cries in the distance. Water beads trickle down chilled flesh. Itch itch itch—something pokes your bare ass.

The beep of the Watch is as gentle as it was for the new arrivals that didn’t wake up on the cold hard ground but the sound blends into the rustle of leaves and the gurgle of the river. Unlike their luckier colleagues, some wildcards have unexpectedly woken up in the middle of lush vegetation. Oops! That was a miscalculation. No details are given other than the above message and a follow-up message explaining GAME 52.

Wildcards that wake up in the Vale will be completely naked and without a resort robe to cover up. Lost amid thick bushes, mushroom clusters, and towering trees, it doesn't feel like they're in a resort at all. Isn't this a rainforest? By all accounts, this is a rainforest.

Those that wake in the Vale will have to make their way through the rainforest to find the exit. Really, so unexpected! This was not what we had in our system at all. It must be overloaded from high demand. Our apologies. Please don't complain.

LOST IN THE VALE ▷ The Vale is the only area in the resort that has simulated weather. Wildcards in the Vale may experience thunderstorms, windstorms, and light rain showers. Those who don't find their way out by night hours will find themselves plunged into darkness, with the bioluminescent mushrooms their only source of light.

▷ There are small caves and caverns throughout the Vale. There is overhead connected netting throughout the trees that may make travel easier for those agile enough to get up there. A river with fresh water runs throughout the entirety of the Vale.

▷ There are real birds living in the Vale. These birds find newcomers very interesting and like to swoop and peck if they see a good opportunity to bully. They are easily frightened off but quick to return if someone is particularly reactive.

▷ The Vale is very moist at ground level so mud and sinkholes are common. There are scattered stone and wood-plank pathways but for the most part the set-up is very natural.

Laughter rings throughout the forest. Footsteps echo. Branches snap. There are other people around aside from you naked newbies. If eavesdropped upon, wildcards may pick up on what these guests are cawing about. It sounds like they’re playing some kind of game.

Wildcards that wake up in the Vale may unwittingly stumble into one of the resort’s popular roleplaying games: Sexy Hunter 💕 and 💕 Sexier Prey.

There are numerous booby traps set around the forest. The goal of the game is to trap your prey and take them home for kinky fun and these guests weren't expecting newbies to suddenly drop in! The traps won’t hurt anyone but they will put them in some embarrassing positions.

SEXY? TRAPSCAGE: A lofted wooden cage. This trap is triggered when the prey crosses a hidden tripwire. The cage will fall from above and enclose the prey if they are not quick enough to evade. The cage is heavy and difficult to move. Escapable if the prey is strong enough or if someone lends assistance.

HANGING NET: Netting hidden on the ground by leaves or moss. Stepping into the net area will trigger the trap into pulling up and capturing its prey in lofted bundle. Escapable if the prey manages to cut through the net or if someone lends assistance and breaks the pully rope.

MUD PIT: A deep hole hidden on the ground by leaves, moss, or carefully placed bushes. Prey will fall into the hole once stepping into it. Depths may reach 6 - 7 feet so prey cannot climb out on their own. Escapable for those with good agility or if someone lends assistance.

ANKLE SNARE: A rope loop hidden beneath leaves, moss, or other craftily laid vegetation. This trap is triggered when the prey steps into the snare. Rope will tighten around the prey's ankle to keep them in place. This trap may remain on the ground or loft the prey so that they're hanging upside-down from a tree. Escapable for those who can cut the rope or if someone lends assistance.

After braving the elements and surviving booby traps, these wildcards may finally find civilization. The lounge pagoda where many of the long-standing guests are hanging out and enjoying drinks is comfortable and connected to a bathroom where characters can themselves clean up. In contrast to the naked muddy wildcards, the guests on the pagoda are dressed in trendy and elaborate clothing.

They stare at the newly arrived nude wildcards before breaking into shouts of glee and approval.

“Yes, brilliant idea, it’s a naked party! Whoohoo! Come on everyone. Take your clothes off. All of them! Naked party, naked party, naked party!”


These NPCs will shed their clothing and begin to skinnydip in the pools and river. They will chase each other—and wildcards! Wildcards will find themselves surrounded by an orgy. They will encourage wildcards to join in on the fun and offer them food and drink to get into the mood.

IT'S AN ORGY Y'ALLFINDERS KEEPERS: None of the long-standing guests are paying attending to the clothes they've stripped off. Some of these clothing items may even have small items in the pockets, like a zippo lighter and cigarettes. Wildcards that dare to snatch clothes or items most likely won't be caught ... but if a guest does catch them, what are they gonna do other than give chase? If you're fast enough it's all yours.

FREE LUNCH IS NEVER FREE: All of the food and drink offered by the guests on the pagoda is spiked with aphrodisiac. Intensity varies from a very slight amount to a full dose, at player discretion. Regardless of potency, wildcards will find that effects do not last long.

MOVE OVER, BUB: The bathroom in the pagoda is small, comfortably fitting two at best. There is a shower with a limited amount of hot water available. The gauge will show as the amount of hot water declines. Once the hot water runs out wildcards can only use ice cold water to wash off the mud. It would be effective to shower together, wouldn't it?

WHO STARTED THIS PARTY: Pagoda guests will become wilder as the party goes on. Wildcards may end up voyeur to guests having sex out in the open. Some guests will try to match up with wildcards or try to match wildcards simply because they would look good together. Particularly frisky guests will playfully chase wildcards around. Good luck, newbie!

Wildcards will find the exit out to the central hub and elevator bank behind the pagoda. Welcome to the Golden Peacock!

MAIN LOBBY
MAIN LOBBY
The Peacock is buzzing with excitement! The massive main lobby is especially spectacular with golden streamers, dazzling lanterns, glittering ornaments, and cheerful music. There doesn’t seem to be one particular holiday being celebrated with the general theme being winter and holiday. An amalgamate like this resort simply couldn’t select one thing and had to go for everything (more is always better). The hallways and aisles are packed with streams of guests in ostentatious outfits. One can’t swing a cat without hitting someone*.

*No cats were harmed in the making of this TDM. We love cats.

There are sprigs of mistletoe above many of the hallways and doors. Surprisingly, the mistletoe have no supernatural abilities whatsoever, but guests that spy two people beneath the mistletoe together will point and demand they kiss. It’s tradition. Don’t be a downer during the festive season. Succumb to the peer pressure.

Hallways are also decorated with vases of poinsettia flowers. Nothing is amiss about these flowers during day hours, but during late night hours they will pick themselves up and trade vases with each other.

They are polite flowers and try to change when there are no guests around but don’t always manage to do it discreetly. Wildcards may notice something gold glinting in the roots of the scrambling poinsettias. Wildcards who manage to grab these flowers and comb through their roots can collect a simple gold ring (along with shivers of, iyaaaa, we just met, so bold).

5 GOLD RINGS GAME ▷ The poinsettias are changing vases! Hey, they like to be fashionable too. Wildcards may notice something gold glinting in their roots as they dart across the floor to the next pot.

▷ Poinsettias are quick and clever. They will dodge, hide, and use bystanders as shields to avoid being caught. Once they’re in their new vase they cannot be taken out. They’re very stubborn.

▷ Poinsettias that are startled may give off a spurt of strong aroma. Wildcards that inhale this scent may break out into a rash. The cure is to climax/orgasm, which will get rid of the rash immediately. It may last up to a week otherwise. An embarrassed poinsettia may offer this explanation, apologetic for doing the flower equivalent of farting in your face.

▷ Gold rings can be retrieved from their roots. Taking these rings is harmless to them but they will be a bit bummed since these rings granted them the ability to scurry around. Please be kind and deposit them into a vase so they are not left stranded on the resort floor!

▷ Each ring collected may have either a slight charm or slight curse. A ring will either grant a brief boost to physical ability (charm) or drain physical ability (curse). Rings are single time use and will become plain gold rings after a brief use period. Players are welcome to choose if the rings they collect are charmed or cursed.

Birdbucks is likewise getting into the winter spirit. Despite there being no weather in the resort they are offering seasonal hot drinks! Prices aren’t any cheaper than usual but the quality is better than their standard coffee. They are offering four new delicious new flavors: Buttered Honey Rum Coffee, Peppermint Mocha, Gingerbread Cinnamon Latte, and Rainbow Cookie Cappuccino.

These drinks won’t do anything other than make one wired from all the caffeine, but guests are encouraged to enjoy them around one of the fireplaces set up throughout the main hallways. Many people are snuggling up to the fire while nursing a Birdbucks drink and telling stories. A great way to get to know your fellow guests! Each fireplace is surrounded with festive cushions, beanbags, pillows, and blankets.

"Have you all heard about the Peacock’s annual wish tradition? No? I’m an old-timer around here, let me tell you … see those little jars hanging amongst the lights? You’re supposed to write down your heart’s desire on a piece of paper and stick it into the jar. Then, take a match and light it on fire. They say if you do that you’ll get your desire within the next 12 months. Me? I’m wishing for an older babe, a high rank babe, to become my sugar momma… what, doing it together with someone? Sure. They say that if you do it with someone you’ll have a fated connection forevermore. So don’t do it with someone you don’t like, hah!"


Wildcards will find that that loud guest isn’t lying. Many small glass jars hang alongside the fairy lights and there are multiple tables with paper, pens, and matches.

Guests are scribbling down their desires and stuffing them into the jars, watching with glee as the lit paper crumbles to ash. Couples who put their desires in the same jar are said to have a fated connection forever after so many couples can be found following the tradition. Nothing happens right away ... but who knows? It may prove to be true later.
RED CARDINAL
RED CARDINAL
Those looking to escape from the crowds will find respite in Red Cardinal. Despite being busier than usual, this particular bar remains serene with guests calmly enjoying food and drink. The decorations are minimal with a few red hanging paper lanterns. The proprietress, a handsome woman in her forties, works the bar while watching all guests with an eagle eye. Guests can be loud and out of control in the hallways; they aren’t going to behave that way in her bar.

Due to limited space, all wildcards that come alone looking for a meal will be seated at a two-top table with another wildcard. The menu for the holiday season is preset. All dishes are cooked by the proprietress's own hands, so the aroma has the comforting spice of homemade. She fully expects these wildcards to eat every single morsel. To leave any dish with scraps would offend her.


"Full? What do you mean, full? Look at you. You're so thin! Eat up, don't leave anything behind. Is my food not good enough? What's wrong with it?"


Guests that do not manage to finish the entire holiday spread will be bullied into washing dishes in the kitchen. The amount of dishes to be washed is massive. There is no dishwasher so it must all be done by hand. Wildcards sent to kitchen duty will not be allowed to leave until every dish is scrubbed clean. It's the least they can do after insulting her cooking by leaving food on the plate.

RED CARDINAL’S HOMEMADE HOLIDAY MENU ▷ Shrimp and Leek Dumplings; Vegetable Dumplings
▷ Squid Kebabs with Oyster Sauce
▷ Spicy Crawfish Pot (🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️)
▷ Rice Noodles served with Sour Beans, Peanuts, Bamboo Shoots, and Shallots
▷ Hand-Pulled Noodles, Thin Beef, Boiled Egg served in Fish Broth
▷ Steamed Crab
▷ Carp with Sichuan Pickles
▷ Kung Pao Chicken (🌶️)
▷ Spicy Beef in Hot Oil (🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️)
▷ Shredded Pork with Garlic Sauce (🌶️)
▷ Red Braised Pork
▷ Sweet and Sour Ribs
▷ Mapo Tofu (🌶️🌶️)
▷ Twice-Cooked Pork Slices
▷ Hot and Sour Glass Noodles (🌶️🌶️🌶️)
▷ Fried Eggs with Tomatoes

▷ Steamed Pea Flour Cake
▷ Osmanthus Cake
▷ Mung Bean Cake
▷ Egg-Yolk Puff
▷ Dragon's Beard Candy
▷ Steamed Creamy Custard Buns
▷ Rice Dumplings

Guests that decide to skip the food and set up at the bar will find dozens of sealed wine jars. The proprietress will share that these wines are her personal make that she only offers once a year. She has not labeled the effects of these wines for her own personal amusement. Guests who wish to purchase a jug must select one based on the name written label, without knowing what may have been added into the mix.

Red Cardinal has all the other usual options as well. They carry basic spirits, beer, and other no-fuss drinks. Characters may also order small bar snacks like nuts and chips.

RED CARDINAL’S HOMEMADE WINESWEET OSMANTHUS: A sweet wine with notes of apricot and plum. A healthy dollop of the butterflies one feels during first love has been blended in to evoke an even brighter taste on the palate. Drinking Sweet Osmanthus will inspire feelings of love and romance in the drinker.

JAMMY BERRY: A tart wine with notes of blackberry, raspberry, and bayberry. A clever tongue may also taste the unshed tears for those without mourners. Drinking Jammy Berry will compel the drinker to cry. Full on waterworks. You baby.

CHILLED NUT: A mild and nutty wine with notes of chestnut and mint. All that's added to this one is a sprinkle of those bad ideas that always come past 2am. Drinking Chilled Nut will prompt the drinker to confess a secret.

LOTUS TANG: A deep-bodied wine with notes of wood and oak. A cup and a half of blended confidence from "the strongest" men as been liberally whisked in. Drinking Lotus Tang will give the drinker a massive confidence boost and the sense self-importance to match.

All jugs have a high APV. Drink too much and you may end up sleeping on the floor of the bar!

LOVE DOVE
LOVE DOVE
Love Dove, the resort's largest department store, is running a massive end of the year sale. All items are between 50% - 70% off, which is a massive bargain for those that are tight on chips!

Stepping inside will transport you away from the busy crowds of the main hallways and into several floors of retail magic. Not wanting to be outdone by competitors, Love Dove has pulled out all the stops to impress during the festive season with massive decorations and mannequin set-ups. Large bows and ribbons, boxes done up in shiny paper, trees and candelabras, sparkles sparkles sparkles. There are also several tables set up around the store offering complimentary glasses of wine and chocolate covered strawberries.

Characters will find a section for every kink imaginable in the store. Gaze in wonder upon the wall of strap-ons. Marvel at the wide shade range of the silicone penises. Bask the rainbow of silky lingerie—for both women and men. There are gadgets and gizmos a-plenty, including some design oddities of Love Dove’s own creation that wildcards may never have seen before. The store even has staged areas for guests to try out some of the more elaborate equipment before buying. While it is not encouraged to use anything insertable before buying for hygienic reasons, guests can turn display toys on to test vibration strength and suction power.

Despite being a sex department store, Love Dove also has several departments dedicated to regular clothing and undergarments. Characters will find decent basics like t-shirts, sweatpants, underwear, jackets, jeans, skirts, shoes, and dresses for slashed prices. Don't miss these deals! The sale ends when the winter festivities end.

DRESSING ROOMSANONYMOUS FUN: Many of the stalls have strange holes cut into the walls, making it easy to peer into the next room over. However, an astute wildcard may realize that these holes are too big to be peepholes. One may even come to that realization because of an unexpected visitor poking through the hole to say hello.

YOU’D LOOK BETTER IN THIS: The lights in the dressing rooms may flicker on and off during the night. After that blink of darkness, wildcards may find that the clothes they were going to try on have been swapped with something completely different.

FOREBODING: Wildcards may find that their reflection in the mirror is pale and tired. The lips of that reflection will move, a faint flick not noticeable to anyone else around, only to the one looking directly at their own face and knowing they aren't whispering. This reflection will try to warn its original... but will quickly freeze up, unable to get the message out before returning to normal.

At the front of the store there is a temporary section with an elaborate display. Wildcards will find Love Dove promoting masks and feathered costumes. They will hand out fliers inviting all guests the holiday masquerade. Drinks! Food! Dancing! A night that you surely won't forget! New guests simply cannot miss this party. Anyone who is anybody is going to be there.

All those who plan attend the masquerade are required to dress up. In the spirit of the season Love Dove is offering especially good sales on these elaborate costumes. For those with simpler tastes, there are also ballgowns and tuxedos in various prints and colors. The most important article is, of course, the mask.

Staff will encourage wildcards to pay particular attention in choosing a mask that resonates with them.

TRY A NEW FACEHEARTS: Several of the red masks have been marked by Hearts. The wearer will be able to glean a vague sense of the emotions of those around them.

DIAMONDS: Several of the white masks have been marked by Diamonds. The wearer’s body will become especially sensitive to touch and temperature.

SPADES: Several of the black masks have been marked by Spades. The wearer will experience a heightened desire for intensity or violence.

CLUBS: Several of the purple masks have been marked by Clubs. The wearer will become compelled to act impulsively or recklessly.

Masks with effects may be purchased and worn in any of the masquerade prompts.
LOVE DOVE (AT NIGHT)
LOVE DOVE ... AT NIGHT
For all the joy that comes with celebrating the holidays, the jubilant atmosphere can evoke loneliness in one's heart. There are many different kinds of loneliness. The melencholy of missing someone that's died. Sorrow from being parted from your family. The ache of watching the one you love celebrating with someone else. The mourning of being left behind by a friend. These feelings are fleeting in the resort—luxury and hedonism are great distractions—but where do they go after that?

Right now they're manifesting in the sex toys.

Guests browsing Love Dove during night hours will find that some of the sex toys have been possessed by residual loneliness.

Loneliness is a powerful force and it has granted the toys the power to act on their own. Guests had better watch out—as brainless tools gifted a sense of autonomy, all they know to do is fulfill their function.

SEX TOYS GET LONELY TOODILDOS: The dildos will chase after guests to try and fill whatever hole they can. These dildos are indiscriminate and will target any hole, so watch out for these pests trying to jam into one of your nostrils. Dildos will target the nearest character and will change targets if another one is within closer range.

SHIBARI ROPE: The shibari rope has uncoiled itself and is hiding in wait to capture two people together. When it spies an opportunity it will throw itself forward and try to knot two individuals together. It will target a single individual if no one else is close enough to catch with them.

FEATHER TICKLER: The feather ticklers are surprisingly aggressive, chasing after characters to tickle them to tears. Sometimes these ticklers work together to trap characters into a corner and tickle them. A very unlucky character may even run into a flock of ticklers!

LEASH AND COLLAR: The leash and collar set will play dead until someone is close enough. The collar will snap around the neck of the closest individual and the leash will drag them toward someone else to hold.

The sex toys are low level and easy to fight off but please note the you break it you buy it signs posted all over the store. Can you afford to go all out, even with the current deals?
NOTES
PROMPT NOTES
▶ How mask abilities manifest in the wearer is totally up to you. For example, the way a Heart mask wearer senses emotions can vary from character to character. There is no one right way to apply the prompt.
▶ Consequences for breaking the toys are totally up to player discretion. Have fun.
▶ Toys can be quelled in other ways. If your character has the ability, go for it.
▶ All subprompts are suggestions. Please feel free to get creative! Listen to your heart, when he’s calling for you.



CASINO FLOOR
CASINO FLOOR
The Phoenix Casino has been transformed into a winter wonderland. Trademark royal blue has been replaced by shades of gold and white with pops of bright red lanterns. Guests in elaborate masks and costumes mesh together and then part, reveling in pretending to be someone else for a little while.

All have dressed to impress, sparing no expense in dripping themselves in precious gems and metals. Some of the guests are treated like gods—these are the royal rank guests and the difference in treatment from the rest of the crowd is palpable. These dazzling celebrities take up much of the spotlight, laughing loudly at card tables and shooing away anyone too low of a rank to breathe their air. They don't bother to hide their identities. Why, when they have the best of everything?

There are several game tables set up where crowds are playing and betting. Wildcards are encouraged to join in on the fun and given some grace from social judgement because they have no official rank yet. Some wildcards may even find guests making eyes at them over the table. After all, who knows if the house has been watching and decided that they’re a favorite? Today’s wildcard can be tomorrow’s new 10 rank.

Wildcards may participate in dice games, card games, and roulette in the main casino. Most other typical casino games have been shelved in favor of the special events in private game rooms.

The buffet is massive and decadent. Dishes like lobster and caviar, cuts of filet mignon, kobe beef with white truffles, oysters chilling on real diamonds, bluefin tuna, matsutake mushrooms, pule cheese, and so on. The dessert table is likewise exorbitant with elvish honey cakes, black watermelon, macarons, petit fours, chocolates, eclairs, tarts, soufflé, and flan all sprinkled in edible gold flakes. Dishes may contain aphrodisiac at player discretion.

The bar isn’t lacking either. The resort has created three specialty cocktails for the masquerade. While regular cocktails and spirits are available, staff will encourage guests to give these limited time drinks a try.

COCKTAIL MENUGOLD GLAMOUR: Those that drink Gold Glamour will find that they are now able to change their voice. A popular choice among guests that really want to lean into becoming someone else for the night.

DIAMOND DUST: Those that drink Diamond Dust will find their walls slowly lowering. Suddenly, being vulnerable and open to connecting with people doesn't seem so bad. Something to help loosen up your favorite introvert.

RUBY TONGUE: Those that drink Ruby Tongue will not be able to tell a lie for the next hour or so. No matter how hard they try they will only speak honestly. Ruby Tongue won’t let you hide from yourself, even at a masquerade.

Wildcards and long-standing guests aren’t the only ones in attendance. Phantom hands have crashed the party and are phasing through the casino. To be fair, they’re always in the casino. It isn’t crashing if it’s their stomping grounds, right?

The phantom hands are mischievous and in the mood to get into trouble. They will be pinching the waists and asses of guests, tugging on clothes, knocking over glasses, and generally be a nuisance. Their favorite trick is to pin the blame for their crimes on someone else. If they’re not careful, wildcards may be the target or the scapegoat for some of these pranks!
GAME ROOMS
GAME ROOMS
The resort has arranged for four special events during the masquerade. These events take place in private rooms away from the bustle of the main party. There is no advertising about what is in each room and many guests are swept into the momentum. Highly trained staff tending to the door will be quick in prepping wildcards who wander in, giving them little time to realize what exactly they’ve stumbled into before it begins.

VIRGIN AUCTION In a room draped in red velvets and spotted with plush couches, wildcards will find themselves either snatched up to a wooden stage or given a number. The distinction between the two is simple: staff will judge which characters are virgins and which are not. Virgins are included in the auction and all others are given the opportunity to bid on them.

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome … to the annual Virgin Auction!! Gaze upon these fresh nubile virgins in awe! So clean and so untouched. You won’t want to miss this opportunity to bask in the glow of their freshness!

▷ Virgins will be asked to give an introduction of themselves on stage. Afterward, they can walk the floor and interact with bidders as they please. Virgins are a rare novelty in the resort so NPC guests will fawn over them and offer them gifts like chocolates and flowers. Some may even read crappy love poetry to them.

▷ Bidders may submit their bids via Watch directly to their virgin of choice. If the virgin likes the bid and the guest submitting it they can accept immediately. If not, they can wait for another bid. After 30 minutes, if they have no other bids, they must accept their highest bid.

▷ Virgins need only spend 1 hour of their time on a “date” with the winner of their bid. They do not need to lose their virginity. Virgins will be paid a medium payout for participating in the auction and paid 20% commission from their winning bid.


LOCK & KEY Gold and red melt together in this cozy game room. Adorned with padlock and ribbon decor, wildcards will only have a moment to admire the space before being snatched away by staff. Some wildcards will simply be given a key and returned to the room. Others will find themselves buckled into a harness or belt of some kind—but this isn’t any belt. It's a chastity belt. A rather uncomfortable one at that.

One hour to find your match, all! Anyone that doesn’t find their match after time has passed will be locked in the pillory and spanked as punishment! Welcome to the Locked Chastity Game!!

▷ Locks are looking for their matching key! Guests must find their match in order to win the game.

▷ Locks and keys that do not manage to find their match by the end of 1 hour will lose the game and have chips deducted from their bank account. They will also be locked into a pillory and spanked.

▷ Chastity belts may be over clothes or under clothes. How intense of a belt a character is wearing is left to player discretion. Some are very raunchy and may require direct contact with intimate areas to access.

▷ Once the game begins the door is closed. Candles that let off a strong aphrodisiac will be lit to add some urgency to the matchmaking. How strongly a character is affected is left to player discretion.


DIRTY DICE In another large room with small scattered game tables tables, pairs and groups will be given a special set of dice to play with. Two bold guests take the lead and show everyone how to play the game. One guest tosses both dice: one lands on BITE and the other on BREAST. He grabs his game partner and peels down her collar to sink his teeth playfully into her breast. She then takes her turn, the dice commanding another intimate action.

Got it, newbies? This is an easy beginner game. Roll the dice and do what it says. You both take turns, and if neither wimps out and does what the dice say four times in a row, you win a prize. That’s Dirty Dice for you!

DIE A
1: Bite
2: Kiss
3: Caress
4: Grab
5: Lick
6: Sniff
DIE B
1: Lips
2: Breast
3: Mouth
4: Neck
5: Ass
6: Knee


▷ If both players manage to complete four rolls they both will receive a medium payout.

▷ If one player manages to complete four rolls they will receive a small payout alone.

▷ If neither player manages to complete four rolls they get nothing.

▷ We recommend players use RNG during this game for random fun!


MASTER & PET This particular room notably has several smaller breakout rooms, all decorated in sensual black silks. Every character that steps inside will be guided into drawing a card from a box. The card will either denote Master or Pet. Staff are quick to divide those who have selected master and pet cards and set them up for play.

Welcome, Masters. We have a variety toys and pets for you to choose from. Your wish is our command. Here, you can have whatever you want. You’re in control.

▷ Masters will be given a selection of toys to browse. Players are free to imagine anything in the piles of stock that masters get to choose from.

▷ Pets will be collared and given a metal tag denoting whether the pet is a cat or a dog. This distinction is made based on character personality.

▷ Masters may request a random matchup or examine the available pets and choose the one that catches their eye. Both will then be escorted to a private room to play.

▷ Pets that manage to satisfy their master will receive a medium payout after play.

Buggy the Clown | One Piece (Live Action)

[personal profile] theflashyfool 2023-12-15 07:07 pm (UTC)(link)
arrival; evens

[By Buggy's standards, this isn't even the shittiest place he's woke up in. But the buzzing at his wrist starts to stir him, and for a moment, he's rather confused about the slide of silk against his bare skin exposed where his robe has gaped open.

He doesn't get to dwell long when he realizes the tiny bed has some company wedged in it, and he's nestled his face into a warm neck at some point during the course of the night. There's a startled gasp before Buggy shoots up. What may be of concern for his bedmate? His limbs don't seem to necessarily all move together, some detaching and hovering uncertainly as his wide eyes lock on whoever is next to him.]


Just who the hell are YOU, huh?

[Not Mohji, not Cabaji, or any of his other crew he'd react much more pleasanly towards certainly.

He's also naturally got a bright red clown nose and his makeupless face might just be turning red enough to match it.]


DON'T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT!

[He's also, unfortunately, a loud clown with no end to his volatile emotions or insecurity about said features.]


arrival; bathroom mischief;

[After things are settled with his surprise bedmate and he's over his annoyance at the tacky gift basket, Buggy has been ushered off for a bath. His luck? The showers will be salt water at this point, and he'll drown comatose and with his ass bared. OR maybe he's just being bitter. Either/or.

... Fortunately, his shower is nice and doesn't leave him feeling drained. But he does struggle with the soap practically jumping out of his hands. What the hell--?]


I'm sorry! I didn't do it on purpose!

[He's instantly defensive, and maybe just a touch embarrassed. Dropping the soap, really? How more humiliating can you get?]

And then afterwards, when he's finishing up in front of a steamy mirror, he doesn't seem to notice anything off at first. He's going through motions of combing through his hair, mind trailing--

You were never as good as him

is the message he finally looks back to.]

Hey, what the hell's that supposed to mean, huh?

[The way he says it? He knows exactly what it means. All he can do is scrub at it in annoyance.]


arrival; communal tub

[Buggy hasn't quit realized the shampoo he used earlier is giving off any particular pheromones beyond the pleasing scent he's enjoying. It's eased his nerves enough that he's decided to take a soak in the tub. He just-- doesn't actually realize the mud mask he's slathering on his face requires a team effort.]

Hey, uh... anyone else having some issues with the masks? Is that weird or what?


arrival; supply closets

HEY! Hey, no!

[Well, shit. In retrospect, he should have known this was a stupid trap when the door slams behind him while he's looking through the supplies. He should have known he was getting set up.]

I don't want to kiss, just open the fucking door, asshole!

[UGH.]


welcome; main lobby

[Buggy doesn't mind the mistletoe that much. Well, other than the momentarily flashes of insecurity no one's actually gonna kiss a guy with a giant red nose (that no one had better fucking mention if they value their hearing, or possibly not getting punched in the face).

But what really catches his eyes? The poinsettia flowers. He doesn't sleep well, really. His constantly busy mind and all the new, stimulating surroundings have Buggy wandering the halls late at night to see the little flower trying to rush and change their vases.

That's-- really weird. But also really neat?

And honestly, he's more intrigued by the gold he sees glinting when the little guys go.]


Look at that plant!

[There's a thrill that goes through him. He's a pirate through and through and damn if he doesn't want treasure when he sees it.

The little guys dart fast though, and duck behind someone or something every time he tries to get it.]


Hey, you!

[He calls out.]

Help me grab that flashy plant!


welcome; birdbucks

[He definitely needs some caffeine, and the buttered honey rum flavor catches his attention. It's not like fancy coffee is a thing on pirate ships usually, and Buggy does like to indulge in nicer things when he gets a chance.

But mostly, he's a little bit-- curious about the person going on about this weird tradition that's caught his attention.]


That's ridiculous... That can't actually work. Right?

[But then again, none of this stuff should be real, so maybe he ought to try out this stupid little burning tradition.

Later on, when Buggy's left his perch on one of the comfortable beanbag, he can be seen with a bit of paper, brows furrowed in thought as if he's seriously debating what wish he wants to write down.]


Hmm...

[He starts with Become king--

But scribbles that out. Have reve--

No.]


Dammit.


red cardinal food, food, food

This place is... flashy, isn't it?

[Oh, look at all this food! Buggy is in heaven and he doesn't even care that he he has to share a table with someone else! Makes it better, right? Food, drink... all of that is better shared with an eager party. Usually, it's his crew, but Buggy will take some stranger as long as they're not an asshole.

There aren't going to be any leftovers as far as Buggy is concerned.]


Try the spicy beef!


red cardinal alcohol;

[He didn't know a drink or two would lead to him thinking about-- things. He doesn't want to think about. Or maybe he's not thinking anything at all, but there are tears prickling at his eyes while he clutches his next glass of Jammy Berry wine in his hand.

He sniffs and tries to discreetly wipe away the shame.

He's not so drunk that he should be crying into his drink in public, but he can't stop it. His chest aches unbearably, his frenetic thoughts whirl around making it worse. Suddenly, Buggy realizes he just-- needs to get out.

He doesn't mean to bump into anyone mind, but--]


Watch where you're going, would you?!


love dove; day

[He's here for the regular clothes, but the kink section-- oh, that catches his attention. And the toys, and the pretty lingerie that he'd kill to see someone in. Maybe he'd even wear some of it too?

Fingers trace over extravagant lace and a smile plays on his laps.

He can be seen inspecting some fo the toys too, and startling when he accidentally flicks on some sort of thrusting dildo that is both curious and hilarious to the clown.]


Would you look at that?

[Later on, he'll make his way to the dressing room, of course. Trying on a few new things he'd like so he's not stuck in his slut era t-shirt.

But then he sees his reflection. It isn't right. It's pale and it's trying to-- say something? Whatever. It's enough to earn a startled shout as Buggy stumbles out of the dressing room.]


What the-- it's. Is this place fucking haunted??


love dove; night

HEY, stay out of there!

[Buggy has the unfortunate experience of a dildo trying to ram itself up his nose and the clown isn't fucking having it. He swats at it, only to scream when it dips down and moves towards his ass.]


masquerade casino floor

[At least there's a buffet to try! And Buggy seems to be loading up delightedly. The food hasn't led him wrong yet!]

Man, some of this food? You can only dream of when you're out at sea.

[He might have a tiny bit of a sweet tooth, so you can bet he's loading up on the desserts.

He seems stuck later on though, when he makes it to the cocktails.]


Which did you decide on?


masquerade handsy

HEY, what the hell are you doing grabbing my ass?

[Have one very indignant clown glowering at whoever he thinks the guilty culprit is.]

You could have just introduced yourself! Honestly, the fucking nerve of some people...


game rooms; dirty Dice;

Come on! We can win this, easy. What do you say, are you in?

[Dice games aren't complicated and sure, this one's a little weird, but Buggy's up for a challenge if it means he can win. Buggy's greedy by nature and it isn't like berry works here. All you have to do is mention prize and he's ready to caress anyone's breast apparently.

It's all in good fun after all.


Wildcard;
[Want something else? Leave a prompt here or hit me up!]

communal tub

[personal profile] bigsmile 2023-12-15 07:44 pm (UTC)(link)
( This whole place is strange, Luffy can't deny it, but it doesn't stop the pirate captain taking advantage of the showers and the baths. Nice and clean he's already headed towards the communal bath, unaware that his own shower had involved liberal amounts of the pheromone-inducing shampoo or that there's something in the air that's almost pulling him over to the hot water.

He gets in without preamble, only just noticing Buggy when the other speaks. He's used to the other being loud, flashy and sporting a face full of paint and he blinks before grinning, not even worried that a potential enemy is in the same water. Not when there's still an interesting scent in the air, one that has Luffy's toes slowly curling.
)

What kind of issue?
theflashyfool: (pic#16771196)

[personal profile] theflashyfool 2023-12-15 09:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, you apparently need someone else to--

[Whatever he'd been about to explain trails off when he looks up and sees the Straw Hat looking back at him. Well, minus the hat, but still. His eyes widen briefly, torn between indignation and maybe just the tiniest bit flustered that Luffy is seeing him without his makeup on, naked. That little asshole!

Except a sweet smell int he air seems to take care some of the initial anger.]


When did you get here?? Have you balls even dropped yet!
bigsmile: (2)

[personal profile] bigsmile 2023-12-15 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
( The water is hot and just as nice as the showers and Luffy sinks further into it with a pleased hum, eyes fluttering closed as he takes a moment to just enjoy it. He's normally the kind who just washes and runs, but this place? This place could almost convince him that baths are the best thing ever and not even a sour clown can ruin it.

Luffy wouldn't have recognised Buggy if it hadn't been for a particular nose all too impossible to disguise. Seeing the other not only naked, but clear of makeup and gear is just not something he'd expected to see, ever, or imagined. Now it's happening Luffy simply wonders why he never did.
)

What? ( A small, easy laugh at that. ) I just got here. Not sure what you're asking? Anyway this bath is nice. Is that clay?
theflashyfool: (pic#16771213)

[personal profile] theflashyfool 2023-12-15 10:28 pm (UTC)(link)
[What, did the lube and t-shirts not tip him off to what they're in for here? The game? But Buggy drops the topic of balls because-- well. It's awkward and he can see basically everything on Luffy. His eyes are darting over him before he can think the better of it.

Hard not to look when he's languishing in hot water like that. Yeesh. This feels fifty kinds of inappropriate, even when it shouldn't necessarily? Not like it's his first time at a communal bath. He's done it with both his old crews before, and hot springs, and everything in between.

Then again, it wasn't like this, and he hadn't expected Luffy to smell so... good. Dammit.]


Never mind! And yeah, it is nice. [He shifts a little bit closer, taking one of the masks in hand and holding it out.]

It's a mud mask. Makes your skin feel soft. You wanna give it a try, Straw Hat?

[Probably shouldn't offer, but... why not? Easy truce until he's ready to kill the little shit later.]
bigsmile: (5)

[personal profile] bigsmile 2023-12-15 10:56 pm (UTC)(link)
( It's only the phrase that is lost on Luffy, he's aware of this place and it's rules courtesy of the person he woke up with upon arriving. It's just not phased him yet, the reality having not quite sunk in yet. Sex for cards, none of it made much sense just yet as to the why but thankfully the how isn't that much of a mystery.

There's a scent upon the air that Luffy can't quite place, a concern considering how good his nose truly is. It's almost like adventure, akin to a storm that has yet to break when the air is filled with the threat of lightning, the smallest hint of candy floss bizarrely trailing at the end.

He can see Buggy looking and doesn't quite care, not bothered by the fact everything can be seen. It's a bath, of course things are visible and Luffy opens one eye to glance back over at Buggy. Goodness the clown had broader shoulders and arms than his attire let on. Just that thought alone makes the water feel all the warmer for it and Luffy seizes upon the face mask conversation all too eagerly.
)

Sure, but doesn't make sense putting mud on you when you're in a bath.
theflashyfool: (pic#16771217)

[personal profile] theflashyfool 2023-12-15 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
You wash it off, dummy.

[...Buggy could be an ass and let him rub it all over and not be able to take it off, but something is definitely drawing him in closer, making him want to touch a bit.

... That's an issue. So's the way Luffy looks at him.

But he's not about to get out of this bath. It's comfortable and hot. He idly reaches up to push some of those unruly curls back from Luffy's face. Buggy had thought to pin his own hair back at least, but he'll work with it.]


Close your eyes, champ.

arrival; supply closets

[personal profile] shanksyourfeels 2023-12-15 07:51 pm (UTC)(link)
[Shanks had been in the supply closet for a bit, everything going smoothly, until he hears the door close, and a familiar voice follow. He had been searching for a robe, which he's already put on. Looking for robes, and what does he get? Additional clown.]

[Hopefully Buggy is too enraged about the door to notice the not so full arm of the robe. And maybe not giving a greeting, first, is a mistake; he's so terribly quiet. Shanks smiles as he approaches, from behind, as Buggy is focused on the door.]


Has yelling at it worked yet?
theflashyfool: (pic#16771197)

[personal profile] theflashyfool 2023-12-15 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[Something inside his chest seizes at that familiar voice, his muscles going taut as Buggy finds himself just... staring at that closed door in horror. You would think the walls are closing in and death is imminent with the way the clown pales so much.

He'd know that voice anywhere. He doesn't have to turn around. Frankly, he's not sure he has it in him yet.

He's not Buggy the Flashy Fool, Buggy the Genius Jester, or Buggy the Clown at the moment. He's just... Buggy. Not the impressive, rub-Shanks'-stupid-face-in-it reunion he wanted.

Still, he has to say something. He turns to look over his shoulder, a dubious look on his face.]


Of course not! Why are you even here, Red Hair?
shanksyourfeels: (01)

[personal profile] shanksyourfeels 2023-12-15 11:43 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Whatever kind of reunion Buggy wanted, at least he has all of his limbs in tact, so that's a one-up. ]

[ Shanks is so matter of fact in tone when he responds. ]


Getting a robe. [ As in, yes, Shanks came in here totally naked, and there was nothing under that robe but him. He knows that's not quite what Buggy means. He probably wants a better explanation for being locked with Shanks in a closet after twenty years of no contact, on some random place they've been spirited away to, but it's the smart-ass answer he's getting. ]
theflashyfool: (pic#16771197)

[personal profile] theflashyfool 2023-12-16 12:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Buggy's head whips around so fast, it's off his body before it can properly catch up, spinning on a heel.]

A robe... a robe! Don't be an idiot, you know that's not what I meant, Shanks!

[Stupid idiot!]

Don't be so casual about this... Do you remember the last time we saw each other, or did you forget it all while you were out there with your new crew, huh?
shanksyourfeels: (11)

[personal profile] shanksyourfeels 2023-12-16 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
I imagine I woke up in this [ he waves his one hand around them ] place much the same way you did.

[ Shanks' persistent smile drops to that. ] Of course I didn't forget. [ How could he? That rejection had been outright painful. But then he got a crew and traveled the world and didn't let it keep him down. Buggy brings it up, though, and the pain is a bit fresh, still raw. ]

My crew, however, isn't here. Is any of yours? [ He asks that sincerely. ]

[Jamie Moore wasn’t an idiot; most of these dice games were rigged in some way or genuinely up to chance. However, this game was definitely something one would not normally find on a casino floor. He crosses his arms over his chest, heavily considering his options when the clown shows up.

And starts speaking to him.

He nearly scoffs at the idea, but the game was pretty straight forward. The dice weren’t too wild (though suggestive) so…]


Fine. [Jamie brushes his long blond hair back behind his ear, gesturing toward the dice.] But you’re starting.

[personal profile] theflashyfool 2023-12-15 10:15 pm (UTC)(link)
[The majority of games generally are rigged in Buggy's experience, but -- this one looks mostly harmless and like a bit of potential fun. The guy he chose? Also not the worst guy to partner with, as far as looks go. Personality? TBD.

He gives an easy smirk as he nods. Fine!]


I can do that, sure.

[One roll and he gets--]

Caress... neck. Not so bad, right?

[Also not the most exciting, but-- whatever. He can do that, sure. He reaches out with a careful hand to brush over the other's neck.]

[It’s a simple move, something that could be arousing if it were a more intimate affair. Though Jamie is sure that’s what the game was intending. He sighs, really not sure how to feel about it. Maybe it had to do with the fact that the other man was literally in clown makeup, but maybe someone was into it and who was he to judge? Jamie takes the dice, shaking them in his hand before he rolls them onto the table.

Lick.

Breast.

Ah.

He nearly rolls his eyes, running his fingers through his fair as he turns to face the clown. He quirks his brow, before reaches over to grab his shirt.]
Off. I’m not licking cloth.

[Come on, he's a really pretty clown! Makeup or no makeup... but up close, that nose does look disturbingly real...

But whatever.

He's got bigger things to worry about than whether this guy is clownsexual or not. Like winning.

He flashes a grin as he reaches up to unbutton his shirt. Well, if the chest hair is anything to go by, he's all natural when it comes to the blue hair.]


Sure thing, pal. Left, right. Knock yourself out.

[He's joking, but maybe he's actually a little weirded out by this game. Not enough to stop because greed wins out, but you know. His partner is, at least, nice on the eyes? Can't ask for much more.]

[Well, that was a surprise. He glances up at Buggy, confused by what appears to be natural blue hair. At first he thought he was dying it but the effort— he doesn’t seem like the type who would go through that much effort for the aesthetic.

Outside of his momentary pause at his chest hair, he doesn’t hesitate to lean forward and lick his chest, resting his hands on his shoulders for balance. He takes a step back, quirks a brow, then picks up the dice to hand them over.

Could have been worse.]


Your turn.

[He says with a smile, his English accent coming through.]

The plant? Yeah, sure! What's your plan here? [ Leo had vaguely noticed a guy - well, lots of people - chasing a plant and so he's happy enough to get dragged into it. He's pretty much always down for random shenanigans and honestly, he wants to catch a poinsettia anyway to see what's in them...so, hey! He'll team up with, uh, a clown? ]

One of us chases them at the other?

Yeah! Good idea.

[Buggy grins brightly, trying to move to block that plant in, making a motion with his hands.]

Don't let it get to the vase and chase it over here! I'll grab it!

[Then they'll see what it's hiding!]

Sure thing! [ This guy seems like he's good with taking charge, which is a load off Leo's shoulders. When it comes to strategies, normally Ritsu handles it, and these days Leo isn't the King so Suou gets to handle all the leader stuff...it's nice to just go with the flow and let other people set the pace (though Leo then goes off at his own pace alone, so he's bad at it).

He's going to dart off to come up behind the poinsettia. If nothing else, he's quick on his feet! ]


Leo incoming~!

Yeah, it's-

[ Levi hadn't really been paying attention when the overly friendly host half-ushered, half-shoved him into a seat with someone. Free food, right? He's not about to complain about that. ]

[ Except he raises his good eye and there's a WHOLEASS MOTHERFUCKING CLOWN in front of him and his life just about flashes before his eyes. ]

[ (Okay, maybe not his entire life. Maybe just The Clown Incident where one of those CREATURES snuck up on him and asked if he's playing gangster with the other little boys (he was 34), and then shoved a lollipop in his face. Listen, all trauma is different but that makes it no less valid.) ]

[ Hopefully Buggy's appetite isn't thwarted by the shorty staring at him -- it's honestly hard to tell if it's anger or abject horror or something else, his face isn't being very expressive, but it's certainly unsettling. ]

'Failure' starts with an F. [Of course Mihawk is sitting there, perched with his legs crossed enjoying a slow sip of gingerbread cinnamon latte as though he just opened this Birdbucks franchise here yesterday. He's not peeking at what the fool is busy scrawling out on his little wish ticket, but cold, piercing golden orbs cutting through the steam rising from his mug do easily notice that the clown seems to be struggling a little bit.]

You seem to be having trouble writing.
