CASINO STARLIGHT IN SOOTOPOLIS IS REOPENING TO THE PUBLIC. After the departure of former Rocket underboss Killian Decker, the casino is now under new management. And what better way to commemorate such an occasion and usher in the summer than a party?[break][break]
Yumi Hasegawa is inviting one and all to a glamorous costume party at Casino Starlight, inspired by A MIDSUMMER NIGHT'S DREAM. Costumes themed after faeries and the feywild are encouraged. Bring your Fairy and Dark-type Pokémon with you, too! Come for dinner and a show, music and dancing, and of course, gambling![break][break]
DINNER AND A SHOW
Time passes, an ephemeral delight, as friends reconnect over glasses of champagne and strangers meet around gambling tables. However, before too long, a man's jovial voice announces over the PA system:[break][break]
"Your attention please, dearest guests. The best chefs in the region have been hard at work in our kitchens, and have declared that dinner is now ready to be served. Please make your way to the Empoleon Room on the fourth floor if you wish to partake in the finest dining Casino Starlight has to offer."[break][break]
Elevators chime as some guests make their way to the fourth floor; others choose to ascend the magnificent stairs. Helpful staff guide you into the largest and most lavish ballroom of the casino, where numerous half-moon tables have been set up facing a grand stage at the far wall.[break][break]
The tables are adorned with ivory tablecloths and immaculate place settings. Tealight candles flicker within small glass holders. Menus printed on luxurious paper present the choice of entrees for this evening:[break][break]
[break]
Once all the guests have taken their seats, the lights dim and a spotlight shines upon the stage. From darkened doorways, a troupe of dancers flit like shadows into place. A haunting song fills the air, and before your eyes, the dancers unfurl into motion.[break][break]
[break]
Slowly at first, like the petals of a flower blooming in moonlight. Their movements are bewitching and hypnotic, their costumes evoking creatures of myth and folklore. As music fills the room with terrifying, powerful notes, the dance quickens, transporting the guests to a midnight bacchanalia deep in a fae-touched wood.[break][break]
With the last notes of the song, the spell comes to an end. The performers bow to applause, then get in position for their next dance. Quietly and unobtrusively, waiters take orders from those seated at tables. Glasses are kept filled with water and wine.[break][break]
Of course, guests may return to the casino at any time, should the itch to gamble the night away prove impossible to ignore.[break][break]
NOTE: For more information about the casino's interior design and layout, please read the wanted ad.
GUIDELINES OOC INSTRUCTIONS
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY![break][break]
[attr="class","ynospace"] - All of your characters may participate in the event. However, you may only claim rewards once per round on one character. In other words, two of your characters may not claim the same reward from a round.
