[h3]Plot Details #1: Arrival[/h3]

Welcome to Wink Murder, kids.

Today is June the 6th, and you've received an invitation. Well, you can call it an invitation if you like, but, in reality, it's more of a threat. Whoever this 'Mr. Jig' is, if you don't come to the Little Lyceum theatre in downtown New York for 9PM, he's threatening to spill your biggest secret. This man could ruin your life. You can either give in to his demands, whatever they may be, or stop him. There is no alternative.

You've been sent a theatre ticket along with directions, upon which states in bold print your name and the date and time you are expected to be there. The show, apparently, is [i]Mr. Jig's Speakeasy: A Reality Extravaganza[/i]. But when you get there, it becomes abundantly obvious that the Little Lyceum does not have a current production running; the building is boarded up, posters and signs out of date and whittled to almost nothing by the weather.

But you haven't come all this way for nothing, so you knock on the door - and it's answered. A young woman, wearing very little beyond a  scant facsimile of a theatre usher's uniform, answers the door and hurries you inside. She introduces herself as The Hostess, and explains that when all of the guests have arrived, Mr. Jig will make his appearance.

You are in the foyer, which, in such a small theatre, comprises both the bar, reception, and the box office, with seats scattered around. It was once an opulent building, with predictable reds, golds, and bronzes colouring everything, with deep woods and rich metals being the primary materials. However, it's significantly unkempt; it smells of damp, and there are dust and cobwebs everywhere. A few areas have clearly recently been used, so they are 'fresher'-looking, but, overall, it's a rather ramshackle affair. The Hostess offers you a glass of wine (apparently Mr. Jig wasn't kidding about it being a speakeasy) while you wait for the others to arrive.

[list][*] The Hostess is an NPC.
[*] For short/simple exchanges, feel free to write her dialogue yourself.
[*] For longer exchanges, please ask my to supply her dialogue for you.
[*] She is very scantily dressed; a red top with golden buttons that maximises her cleavage; a short, meshy pencil skirt; heels; a red and gold headscarf thing.
[*] Default personality is high on the flirty, medium on the professionalism.[/list]
