For the evening, The Annex will be transformed. Comfortable leather high-back chairs, cozy love seats, chandeliers, table lamps, and whiskey barrels help transform the dueling venue into a Speakeasy. Enjoy a selection of silent films on the projection screen, dance the night away on the dance floor, try your hand at cards, cozy up and enjoy privacy behind red velvet curtains, or grab a duel.

Silent Films:

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse
Ben-Hur
The Hunchback of Notre Dame
Abie's Irish Rose

Music Playlist:

For those who wish to duel, a selection of special weapons will be available. These weapons may come with a few surprises of their own and may be influenced by those who handle them (especially anyone who possesses magic!) None of these weapons will leave you or anyone else with lasting damage.

(Ex: the molotov cocktail used in DoM may produce Foul Fog. The guns may shoot out foam bullets. Have fun with the idea and run with it!)

Lucy loves a good theme party, so she's all ready with her outfit for Sabine's birthday celebration!

Image

She also sent a gift ahead for the birthday girl (so she didn't have to carry it the night of the party). A set of four delicate, gilded rim, pale pink champagne glasses, and a good bottle of pink champagne.

Image

The note reads: To Sabine, Happy 21st birthday! Celebrate in style with your nearest and dearest. Cheers, Lucy Mitford

Eden and Cory are looking forward to celebrating Sabine's birthday! And thanks to Cory's help, Eden has managed to put together an outfit that she's pretty certain is at least somewhat 1920s Earth-like!

And since Eden is certain that this is a birthday party, she knows a gift is traditional. With Cory's help, they picked something that followed the night's theme:

Rena showed up for the bash, the dress giving her room to duel if she wanted to.

And inside the envelope, a gift card to RhyDin's version of Barnes and Noble, since word on the street is that the honoree likes to read.

Val had no idea what a speakeasy was, but she was learning about computers and after some consultation with a very helpful Empress Overlady, managed to put something together to match the theme for the evening - she was still a touch nervous about how short the skirt was, but when in Rhy'Din, right?

Image

She didn't know Sabine well, so she stuck with some of her handmade gourmet chocolates - and a vintage era microphone, since she'd seen Sabine calling at duels more than once.
