Avaritia Arrival Log

AVARITIA

It's Vegas, baby! Oh wait, I already made that joke on the location page... With Esme's iron-fisted reign brought to an end and the Executors given time to take a very well-earned break, it finally comes down to descend to the next layer of Purgatory. Thankfully, with this being the group as a whole's second descent, things are a little less nerve-wracking this time around... maybe. Hopefully. ... Probably. Welcome to Avaritia. Feel free to use this arrival log to chronicle your initial misadventures in the Greed Layer of Purgatory. As noted in the location page, several locations will require further investigation if you'd like to get some information on them, so get investigating! Drop a comment down to the Investigation Request subheader if you'd like to explore. Get out there and have fun!

[ He's not at all the parental type, but he's certainly a loyal one. And if nothing else, he pays back what he owes to gifts freely given, especially if it involves power to transcend his own limits. ]

My, what a fascinating little game you have there! I'd try it myself, but I see you're already occupied. [ He's gone from dour to viciously cheerful, holding himself with confidence. He could probably just steer Rei away from this clearly rigged game, but this is a teaching opportunity as well as a way to pocket a bit more of this level's currency. ] But I just don't feel the stakes are high enough. If you're willing to raise your stake in it, I'm willing to add a little bit more for your trouble and make it very worth your while.

[ He leans over with a razor-sharp smile, letting the clink of nova make his point. ] What do you say?

[ Rei starts a bit to hear him approach and she looks up at him with confusion written all over her face. ] Frost? But why...?

[ Of course, Rei's confusion is nothing compared to the Specter she's been betting against but theirs is tempered with a little caution. They stare Frost down for a moment, weighing concern against greed before giving a slow nod and shoving forth another stack of novas to add to their total. Rei's eyes widen. ]

B–but that's so much money...!

Oh, everything has its price. The bigger the better, hmm? [ He says it casually, watching the Specter's face. As promised, he adds a small stack of his own to the pile, which is growing quite substantial. ]

Well, that all seems in order! [ He smiles, pleasantly, though he's now focused on the dice and how the Spectre is rolling them. ] Why don't we begin? The rules are simple enough, I'm sure.
