For many people, art and artifacts are simply a beautiful expression of culture and history, and yet for others, it represents something else entirely.
So it is that on this dark and stormy evening at the Detroit Institute of Arts, and auction is being held. A range of priceless works and antiques are being shown in a blind bidding, drawing many powerful figures that wish to remain anonymous. If anything is certain, it is this: if there was ever a place to attract the apex predators of humanity, it is this auction.
Possible Plot Hooks:
- There's a certain Vampire you've been hunting, but have never managed to catch sight of...until, perhaps, tonight.
- There's an item you need to get. You don't know what it is, you just know death hangs around it like a stench in the air.
- You're not following the monster, you're following the money, and a notorious Warlock has sent his banker to the auction.
- You're there for another reason. Maybe you've been hired on as staff for the event. Maybe you were legitimately invited. For reasons of your own, you happen to be in the room that night.
Let me know what hooks sound fun, and we'll hammer out connections and how y'all are arriving to the event
Feel free to ask questions below! I hope y'all are as excited as I am!
