Den of Iniquity

Sep 14, 2005 18:20

Upon entering through the alley door, you find yourself in a small room in the back of the building. It is lit by a handful of oil lamps affixed to the walls. There are several wooden tables, each large enough to seat a handful of people. An assortment of chairs, benches, and cushions are placed haphazardly around the room. Sets of dice and playing cards can be found on the tables. A sign on the wall reads:

This establishment is always open.
All types of dicing, betting and other gambling allowed.
NO COCKFIGHTS.
Clean up after yourselves, as the owner is not your mother, and wouldn't claim you even if he were.
NO SUMMONERS OR PARDONERS ALLOWED.

Another line appears to have been added later

NO USE OF FIREARMS, SWORDS, OR BRAWLING
