HOUSE OF DÍS ( PLAYER BUSINESS ).
— WELCOME TO THE HOUSE OF DÍS —
— A SALON & GAMBLING HALL FOR SALTBURNT'S MALIZIA —
BEYOND dark, creaking doors, the House of Dís unfolds in a deliberate division between spectacle and indulgence. The gambling hall stretches beneath velvet walls and descending chandeliers, polished floors echoing dice and snapping cards. Here, games of chance, deceit, and skill dominate, each table a stage for subtle manipulation and daring risk. At the far end, a curtained stage rises in gilt and shadow, hosting operatic spectacles performed by the House’s resident entertainers: those who hold limited events of their own — soirées designed to tempt, provoke, and reward the bold. Occult sigils etched into glass and wood inspire impulse and indulgence trace arches and railings, subtly loosening restraint and coaxing risk, vanity, and daring from every patron.
Opposite, the open-air salon and private booths lie beneath a conservatory ceiling of iron and clouded green glass. Poisonous plants press close to the panes as stewards circulate with absinthe-laced cocktails and restorative tonics. More symbols etched beneath the floor and along the bar quietly encourage boldness and risk-taking. Patrons are invited to linger here during periodic theme nights: masquerades, cabarets, or ritualized events where the usual rules bend and the House’s influence grows more intoxicating, fostering secrets and wagers that extend far beyond the table.
Every corner of the House bears marks of observation and influence. Coin holds no value; entry and wagers are paid in secrets, favors, memories, flesh, or binding promises. The House does not rush: it waits, patient, nudging hedonism and daring, guiding choices, and shaping outcomes before the final tally is called.
Tucked behind a velvet curtain, Mithra Antonescu’s private office oversees it all. Here she reviews ledgers, receives petitions, holds private audiences and ensures nothing of consequence escapes notice. Few glimpse her inner sanctum and fewer leave unchanged. To venture deeper still, means acquiring a copy of Dante's Inferno with a weekly watchword, to gain access to the unhallowed hall of DI INFERI.
