The Clare - Friday the 13th Sundance Festival Reply with quote
NOTE: If your name is listed, you had an early invitation, and time to 'prepare': Prince Freddrick, Twist, Ishani Naetesh, Paresh Williams, Katherine Devoe, any other Covenant heads, Kira Duvois, Neil Coben, Lioni Dupree, & Quinton Jones.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Pulling up to The Clare, valets park the car and staff open the doors. One of the late Hierophant's priestesses escort people to the Grand Ballroom, past armed guards, where more priestesses and young Kindred stand by to assist with anything. Guests are also asked to remit any weapons and reminded that the Prince is in attendance and that this is therefore an Elysium.

Guests are required to enter one at a time.

Going through the doors, a small tunnel with a switchback has been constructed of glass painted black, impenetrable and lit by a rows of LEDs on the floor along each wall of glass. Following the switchback, you come to a set of black velvet drapes. You can hear the chirping of birds. Some might even smell Eucalyptus. The first opens to the right. Light spills from under the second curtain, which opens to the left. You open the curtain.

Please click for visuals (Warning: Large pictures)

Hot, yellow sunlight drenches you.

When you can, you look again. A blazing yellow sun hangs in a blue, blue sky.

Gravel and sand are under your feet, and you step into the ruins of India. Edifices loom in the distance, in a sea of blue sky. Lammergeier and sharma birds twitter. Banyan, Neem, and Eucalyptus trees abound, as well as rubble and pillars adorning the ground along the walls.

Closer inspection will reveal the walls and domed ceiling are covered with sheets of painted glass. Hot yellow light streams through the glass to effect the illusion.

The East wall extends out into a fabricated area of faux columns, forming a room and concealing an exit, an area for the Prince.

A few guests (on the 'Early' List) are already there.

Asa is dressed for an archeological safari.

FIRST POST!


Mrs. Scotts had little trouble fiting into her dress. A narrow ballroom dress, properly done with the colors of the party.
((OOC: This was the best pic I could find))
Belise had done a good job. She would have to recommend her shop. She adjusted the jewels that Icarus had given her, and went to her purse.

After pondering security, she brought a baby 9mm full auto, put in a paper bag. At the very best, she'd leave it in the car and no problems. If not, it was cheap enough she could throw it out without worries. And like all good chinese products, it was traceable back to a metaphorical black hole.

Her new car, a beautiful shiny black hummer purred in her hands. She didn't care what others might say about it. It was a work of sheer beauty in her eyes. Pulling up to the hotel, she left the keys in the car for the valet. Pleased with the security, she left her bag in the glove box, and went inside.
She walked gracefully and with poise, as her dress swept around her.
She gave condolences to all of the priestesses that she passed.
Finally, she entered the main room, and Immediately fled back out.

White and Ecru. Why did that have to be the color for the night. Shit. I have every fucking color of dark in a suit.

After waking up Ash quickly made his way to the local suit store. It took a couple of stores to find one he kind of liked, and a little extra money to convince the tailor to hurry up. In the end, he liked the result


That was it for major expenses for the month.

He handed his car keys to the valet. "Thought I was going to be late." Seeing as how his budget was blown anyway, he threw a 20 to the valet.

As he walked through the entrance, he wanted to run screaming. He knew it was only an illusion, otherwise he would have certainly died on the spot. But part of him stayed there as he got lost in the illusion.
Oh dear god. How long. How I would love to see the ruins in daylight in real life.
If he could remember how to cry, he probably would have teared up at that point. "To see the light of day one more time on a lovely beach. I would like that to be the way i go" he said softly to himself.

"Masterfully done Priscus. Those who can see the illusion will enjoy it. I most certainly did" he offers a bow and extends his hand for a handshake.

~PARESH WILLIAMS~
Obf 2

:icon_Rakshasa:Icon_cov_crone

Paresh walks in and follows the switchbacks and parts the curtains and recoils from the sun that spills on him after he looked down and sees that he was not burnt the smile crept across his face and he walked in and looked around....it was....home....



Seeing he was early and allowed to go and change into something more fitting he took advantage, where his suit might fit he would help the Pricus pull off his little mirage...he went in looked around and started gathering stuff stepping into the changing area he waited until he was told to come out by the master of the event....this would be fun.

Minutes after Erika heard the theme of the party, her room was a mess. Dresses and outfits thrown halfway across the bed, some of them hanging from the ceiling fan as she dug through to find something suitable. Thankfully, she had plenty of dresses she kept updated and wearable from ages long ago:



She hated arriving at such an event in a cab, but there really wasn't much choice; there'd been no time to book a limo, and she really didn't want to buy a car so soon. She slid out of the cab, handed over some cash, and walked up to the door, her hair tumbling down in fancy braids and swirls as she walked. It isn't until she walks through the switchback, and sees that light under the draped curtains that her beast starts to swell; it screams inside her as she pushes the curtains aside and steps through...but she somehow manages to push it down, quell it in the light of the...sun?

Interesting choice for a party, with so many of us Mekhet in the city...

She smiles as she takes in the rest of the room, though, and just slides into observation mode as she walks about, for now.

Striking Looks 2 (Graceful)

Ishani had arrived earlier then most, and she was in the dressing area trying to get the fandangled garmet she'd chosen to wear wrapped around her form correctly. It wasn't that the garmet was that difficult to figure out, it was that she had not worn anything like this before and it took a little bit of getting used to. She also refused the assistence of anyone who asked to help. She was old enough to get herself dressed, dammit.

Finally, the outfit slide into place and Ishani felt comfortable. She did not know if she was supposed to wait to be announced or something, but she felt the need to be out there watching. So, she stepped out of the dressing room and into the "sunlight" trying not to lose all sense of control. It was so bright in here, she felt like her eyes were trying to pop out of her head. But this was Asa's event and she refused to mess it up by losing control. She shut down her beast with a tight, iron clamp and moved to stand at his side.

"What a wonderful theme this is. I am sure it will take everyone by surprise." She said to him as she came up, giving him a low curtsey.

She was glad however, that the garmet was loose enough to conceal the weapons she carried on her. She was also glad she was allowed to have those weapons. She would have felt completly lost without them.

The Night Before

"Justin, what the fuck color is Ecru?!"

Yes, I'm Daeva, and I'm going through my closet looking for something suitable, Blue-Tooth in one ear as I talk to my Lynx 'Step-Dad'. I think he's at a party, actually, but he'd stepped away from it to take my call.

Not that I'm surprised. If you asked Justin, there is nothing more important than 'family', and House Melange is about as close to real family as you could get in this Danse.

I listen, pulling out a white shirt and white pants, laying them out on the bed before I just look at myself incredulously in the mirror.

"You're fucking with me. Haven't these people heard of contrasts?....And I just sounded exactly like Justinian, didn't I?"

A laugh on the other end, and he hangs up.

Well...I guess I'm glad that my sire had bought that cream-colored jacket for me. I never thought I'd get the opportunity to wear it...

...I tended to get blood on things, so white and cream and other 'light' colors were rare things in my wardrobe. Black, after all, always hides the blood.

---------

Friday the 13th

So when I finally arrive, I actually look the part of the 'Fashionable-Yet-Edgy' Invictus Daeva, smelling the part of the 'Fashionable-Yet-Edgy' Gulikan that I am. I could have chosen Lavender for this, but I miss my sire (don't tell him that, he'll become even more full of himself), and his signature has always been Betony.

I just find it really amusing that my sire, 'Mister-Serial-Killer-In-Life' himself, likes the smell of Surprise!.

Mrs. Scotts saunters back into the building, a wide smile on her face and chuckling as she wanders back into the sunlit room. Observers may notice a slightly stiffer walk, in total contrast to her smile.

The beast struggles and screams and claws at her, and she resorts back to the most basic, if not the most elegant of mental suppression techniques. "No!" She demands of it, throwing her entire will behind it as she steps into the sundrenched room. It screams and drives at her, and she stops the merry go round, brings the bars in, and turning it back into the cage of her younger years. "No! I am in control, and you are not!" She shouts at it, as it howls and screams.

The beasts of the room greet her like old friends now, and hers is still too terrified to do much of anything anyway.

She gives a curtsey to the audience, her smile still evident (if a touch forced).
She heads straight for Asa, still chuckling.
"Well done Priscus Asa Clark, well done. You had me completely fooled by the illusion." She gives a bow, Icarus' jewelry dangling as she smiles at him. Looking around, she takes in the sights of India.
"I'm going to find some way to return this favor mr. clark, don't you worry about it." She thinks to herself, still smiling, this time for real.

Dog had read the notice, and figured he ought to show up. Maybe he could meet this Davis guy that was dodging him. He didn't know what the fuck "ecru" was, but it was pretty much in-line with the pansy feel he got from the city so far. If he actually gave a shit, he'd go ask Lord Blonde at the Asylum... but he didn't.

He shaved, though, and gotten a suit. It always amazed him how easy it was to get some closet queer to take him home. Only slightly less amazing than how much they screamed and cried. It was a black suit, and the stains probably didn't show... much. The tie was a total loss, though, even if he'd known how to tie it. Being stuffed in someone's mouth during playtime tended to do that.

Goddamn.

Dog recoiled at the light, Claws almost popping out. Was this a joke? Someone needed their sense of humor 'adjusted'.

Rahyna pulled up to the hotel and sat for a moment before exiting her vehicle and handing her keys to the valet she was a bit nervous about attending this party and had spent a couple of hours deciding what it was she wanted to wear after finally making her decision she started going through her jewelry to find something that would mark her as dying light being that the outfit she decided on was not blue she fixed her sights on the sapphire set she had bought herself quite some time back but never had the chance to wear anywhere.

Smiling to the valet she made her way to the entrance of the hotel and made her way in as she stepped inside she immediately had a feeling of ‘Oh shit’ as she stumbled slightly when the bright light of what looked like the sun hit her. Once the realization of the illusion settled over her Rahyna regained her composure and headed further into the room intently looking at the scene before her.

She noticed Asa talking to a few people and figured she would go and pay her respects to the host of the evening as she walked across the room to where he was standing she smoothed out her dress. Once reaching him she gave a slight bow.

“Priscus Clark you have done a wonderful job with this evenings gathering it looks absolutely wonderful.” Rahyna raised her head and smiled sweetly at Asa.

Striking Looks 4 (China Doll, Delicate)

Bella had decided to the party she would go. She didn't know if anyone else of the Sanctum would be attending and they needed some kind of representation.

Not having a damn clue with the hell ecru was supposed to be, she simply picked an outfit out of her wardrobe that was her style and decided it would have to do.



After arriving and making sure her weapons stayed in the car, she stepped into the tunnel leading to the main room.

As she pulled the curtain aside and the light hit her face, her beast took over. Turning around she fled right back down the tunnel and back out the front door. She had nearly reached the end of the long driveway before she regained herself. Stopping with a bit of a skid, she just stood there, taking in deep gulps of air.

It was not the sun. It was not the sun. Just a really really bright light that was warm. Come on Bella get a grip. It was not the sun! She told herself as she took a cigerette out of the pack with shaking hands.

She smoked the cigerette and the shaking slowly subsided. By the time she was done with the smoke, she was ready to try again.

She walked back into the hotel and slowly walked down that damn tunnel.

Asa is a total prick. Fucking Ventrue jackass. She thought angrily, as she gathered the courage to move the curtain aside.

Taking a page from Jason's book, she took a deep breath and moved the curtain.

Again, her beast screamed, kicked, and clawed at her inner mind to get away from the damn light. She shut the door on it. A twelve inch steel door. And stepped out onto the sand.

As she slowly moved through the room, she began to get more comfortable and started to regain her composure (what little there was left of it). She approached Asa, squinting in the light, as it hurt her eyes.

"Good evening Priscus. What a lovely event you have set up for the kindred of the city. I just wanted to say how beatiful it is in here. Thank you for this opportunity to get reacquainted with the sun."

She gave him a deep curtsy, then, with a smile, walked away.

Twist was both simultaneously excited for and dreading Asa’s Party. She had gotten a sneak peak of the décor a week or so back and it had all the makings for what should be a fun evening. But then the attacks had happened and so many kindred under one roof opened up dangerous possibilities for a city under attack. To deal with the confliction she first sharpened her knives and stashed a number of them in her vehicle. She would have liked to carry one on her person but the hotel was an acting Elysium so she didn’t- choosing to play by the rules. And then she did what most Daeva do…she primped and premed until it was time to leave.

Arriving at the hotel she tucked her mask into the glove box and handed over her keys to the valet, but not before noting the direction the line of cars where going. It did no good to have knives in her car if she didn’t know where the car was. She greeted Emma’s Priestesses somberly. It had not been enjoyable having to tell them of their loss. It was hard not to skip to through the dark switchback- she knew full well what awaited her. And even with the threat of attack hanging over the city she couldn’t help but loose some of her panic in the party atmosphere.

The wall of faux sunshine hit her face and she spared a second to remind her beast that it was all an illusion- not hard since it had already faced this once before, and then let herself surrender to the scenario for a second. She had never been to India, and nor did she ever plan to go but she would probably always link it with sunshine because of this shindig. She had taken full advantage of her prior knowledge and dressed fully to motif. Gold bangles reached to mid forearm, a chain looped from her upper ear to her lobe and then to her nose, an elaborate bindi rested between her eyes and the small gold bells on her right ankle chimed with every other step.

After enjoy the fake sunshine, Twist glanced around to see who had already arrived. She noted Asa being surrounded by compliment givers. She would say hello later- he was busy now. Instead she began to wander aimlessly around the room, simply enjoying the atmosphere.

O-Yama entered the party, he nearly screamed in fear and the artificial sunlight cast its light on his flesh. The stark white, and beigeish ecru of his kimono reflecting the light uncomfortably to his eyes. Oh, Asa, you must have a daiben-eating everytime one of us walks in. O-Yama shook away the beast, visibly calming himself by taking a deep breath. He then put on a winner's smile, and attempted to find the others that were on the burn team, they were the closest thing he had to allies tonight, the closest thing to what a kindred could call a friend. Seeing Sheriff Naetiff he began mingling through the crowd in an attempt to move towards her, and hopefully meet up with the others as he made his way to her.

Bells comes in.

Bells goes out, looking just a bit terrified.

And then, a few minutes later, she comes back. Just enough time to smoke a cigarette.

That's my girl.

Then I see her make her way over to the 'host', and it hits me:

It's fucking bright in here. In fact, it looks like a sunny day, and Bells, being Mekhet, had reacted to it in the way any Mekhet would. Makes me also wonder if our 'host' has a irrational hatred of Shadows (or Asps, for that matter).

So I make my way over to her as she walks away, offering my 'sister' an arm.

"Had to call Justin because I had no idea what the fuck color Ecru was." It's said in a whisper, and I try to give her a smile in order to just make it a little easier to bear.

We wouldn't be staying long, that was a certainty. "You look nice."

Asa Clarke
Aspect of the Predator, Striking Looks 2 (Handsome)


Asa loved the effect. It was everything he had hoped it would be. And now the guests arrive. Squeezing Ishani's hand, he smiled at her, "You did tell me that you missed the day, once, you know..."

With the guests arriving, he signaled to one of the priestesses to let Paresh and the others know that the party was beginning. There were one or two lapses of entrances, he noted ruefully, as well as some unfamiliar faces. He had foregone having the guests announced for exactly this reason. No need to humiliate anyone.

Responding to the compliments with a warm, genuine smile, he knew that not all were sincere, but his thanks for them and the guests for coming was. Some, he noted, preferred to mingle or wander, and he gave the Seneschal a nod of acknowledgment when she looked at him. He was glad to see Kira, knowing that the sewer... incident... had hit her hard.

"Thank you all for coming," he said to those around him, "and I truly hope you enjoy yourselves."

Erika shuddered at the thought that he enjoyed this cruel prank. Surely he had to know the effects it would have on a large portion of the population? She stepped around, looking at the glass domed walls and shrugged a little...it was a great illusion though, however it was done. Her eyes glanced around at all the newcomers, and a slight smirk held at her lips for just a moment when the discordant Bella couldn't even hold herself together during the first attempt to enter the room.

Erika hoped that Icarus might show up, although that wasn't likely, from what she'd heard of him. She hadn't had time to stop by the hotel yet, and she was still looking forward to meeting him.

After leaving Asa, Scotts mingles her way over to the Sherrif.

She gives a bow "Thank you for eradicating the plant from my house. I wish that I had been blessed with a more capable physique, so that you would not have had to endager yourself and others. I also want you to know that the loss of the house to me was not of consequence, and I greatly appreciate what you did. Could you tell me how it all happened?"

Tammi Rose

The Gangrel walked in and immediately noticed the decor. She frowned a bit before speaking mainly to herself. "The sun is just so last season."

A wave was given to the Sheriff as she sauntered past. She had chosen the pink little outfit she had seen Alicia Silverstone wear in Clueless mainly cause Alicia's character Cher knew style.

A white Coach bag over her shoulder she made her way towards the Seneschal. She had info that Twist just had to have. As if her presence here enough wasn't enough to warrant a conversation with the Seneschal. Walking up to her she curtsied politely before extending her hand.

"HI!!! I'm Tammi Rose, your the Seneschal right? That's just so cool! I mean I'm sure it's alot of work and all but it's just SOOO COOOOLLLL to be someone important like that. One day maybe I'll be an important person too. Anywaaaaysss, I just thought I'd come over and say like Hi and all cause I haven't had the pleasure of like meeting you before and you like are important and stuff. I love your dress. Where'd you get it? Mine's retro from the 90's and stuff it just rocks. I like yours too though. So like is there any other important people here? Considering it was a 4x4 with one driver and 3 men in the back, probably kindred due to their speed and aversion to the fire they were shooting, I doubt the Hierophant will be here though. What's with the decor? I mean why do bright sun on Friday the 13th? Why not like some guy in a Hockey mask like swinging a chainsaw. It's like definitely a Monet. Like I mean it's just so Whateva?

Her voice moved with the speed of a Celerity master, matched only by the speed of her hand gestures.

Ace arrives dramatically on his Ducati, tossing the keys at a baffled and rather bewildered valet. He growls at fellow kindred dressed up like they're going to a fucking ball, the punk in skin tight black jeans and his knee high creepers. His shirt is at least white, sleeves ripped off and frayed to show of his full sleeve tattoos, black suspenders and a black thin tie completing the look. In an attempt to at least acknowledge the theme he wears white leather cuff bracelets with handy spikes, his switchblades all obfuscated in a variety of places on his body. In an effort to be 'fancy' he puts his platinum lip rings in.

"Ugh...This ridiculous shitty political shit..." he grumbles to himself as he enters, heading down the tunnel.

Bella smiles back at Jason tightly, and slides her arm out of his grasp. "Give me a second." She says, heading for the tunnel again. "I need to get my sunglasses, this shit is giving me a migraine."

She leaves the building, finds her car and grabs the sunglasses out of the glove compartment.

When she comes back, her stride is much more fluid and confident. She walks back to Jason with a genuine smile.

"So much better. Now, anyone here we need to do the mingle dance with? And you are steaming tonight. Good thing you called Justin. I had no clue what the hell ecru was either, so I went for black." She says, shrugging.

Ishani's jaw drops and she looks at Asa. "You're kidding me right? I mean, seriously Asa, I am sure everyone misses the day time every once in a while."

The fact that he'd insinuated that he'd done this for her just flat out floored her. She didn't know what to say. She had heard that sometimes their kind could find love, real love, not that fake shit you pass off as love when it's only lust. But she never actually believed it. Now, she wasn't so sure.

Was it love that Asa truly felt for her? Or was she just a passing fancy?

She shoved the thought away for now. It was not the time to think about such things. She had better things to do then allow her mind to be muddled with such thoughts right now.

She turned to Ms. Scotts with a frown, after the woman asked her to tell her about how the house had gone down.

"No offense, Ms. Scotts, but I would really like to just enjoy myself right now, before delving back into business."

Though he bears a Mekhet tattoo on his arm, Ace shuns the norm of all the other Mekhets and blatantly disregards the 'sunlight' sauntering in like a high roller and keeping his normal smirk on handsome lips.

He looks around, appearing totally out of place in the big room, glancing at the sun as though it is no more bother than a fly.

Jason Andrews

"'Black' is the Inquisitor's color, right? I'm sure no one gives a shit."

Well...they probably did, but Bells isn't the kind of girl who cares what other people think. The only reason I care is because I'm getting residuals from Justin and my Sire, and they only care based on what it will get them in the long run.

Me? I haven't sold my soul to the gods of practicality yet.

"And thanks. Never thought I'd ever get to wear this get-up. I'm not sure if there are any people I'd need to talk to. Mrs. Scotts and I have an arrangement, and I was thinking that, if Davis showed, I'd talk at him a bit. Otherwise? I don't really know anyone."

Ace heads over to a pretty little thing wearing all black, my kind of girl... he thinks to himself, smirking.

As he walks towards her he bumps almost roughly into some unknown Kindred (Jason). He ducks his head in apology and keeps walking.

Aww....How cute.

He's Posturing.

I brush my sleeves, the front of my coat, and my pants. Please: I grew up on the bad-side of town. My mother was a prostitute on the Baltimore Block, and I'd been picking pockets since I was ten.

I'm no idiot.

I sniff. Twice. Catching a scent. "No sweat, man."
