la petite mort



Situated in the heart of New Orleans' oldest district, La Petite Mort is an exclusive gentleman's club in every sense of the world. Built on old-world style decadence and debauchery, this club is designed to provide entertainment of various varieties for it's members. Upon gaining entrance into the building, the first stop is the foyer where you will be greeted by the Hostess and Proprietress, Miss Jewel herself. After Jewel's approval is gained, you will be lead into the main room by any one of the beautiful women provided and there is where the fun begins. Extraordinarily expensive and rare varieties of alcohol are provided at the rich oak bars placed strategically about the room, and beautiful women in various states of undress walk around offering glasses of the finest champagne to Jewel's guests. High stakes gambling can be found at any one of the tables provided for those with an adventurous spirit or a fine hand at cards, and more beautiful women perform on the stage for the members' and non-members' entertainment alike with plenty of other women and men (for those that prefer the stronger persuasion) roam the grounds looking to keep the patrons company as they go about their own entertainment. Several employees are willing donors for any vampiric guests and can be spotted by the red silk ribbon they wear around their necks.

A gourmet buffet stocked with a variety of both local and international delicacies is available for those with an appetite for food. And this is where the non-member's fun ends, but the member's entertainment begins. In the back of the main room there is a doorway covered with red velvet drapes, with a security guard on either sides. There, proof of membership will be required to be shown, but once it is given, feel free to pass through those doors and feel free to entertain the lady (or man) of your choice in complete privacy for a few hours or so. A complimentary bottle of champagne is provided in each room, and every single room is absolutely luxurious. Don't be afraid to leave a mess as the club has excellent cleaning staff.

Upon going up the stairs found off to the left after entering that velvet-draped doorway, one will find more rooms for private use, including the smoking lounge where various imported cigars and cigarettes of fine quality are provided for a member's enjoyment. The colors are more muted here, with furniture of the squashy brown leather variety provided for sitting while one smokes the cigar of his choice. Women are provided to keep company in thisthe library is up here and may be used by any nonmembers room as well, but no sex may take place in this room. Jewel's business office is also upstairs, and anyone with questions regarding their membership can feel free to leave a note on her door.

Downstairs lies Jewel's personal boudoir, where entrance is strictly forbidden unless given permission by the vampiress herself. Security flanks those steps and anyone attempting to pass without Jewel present will be subjected to heavy questioning and possible removal from the club. However, if permission has been gained, nothing but the highest form of luxury will be found.

Notes:
~ This club is like a time-warp back to the eighteen hundreds. ALL employees are required to wear period dress.
~ There is security strategically and discreetly placed about the entire building, even in the back rooms.
~Proof of membership can be shown in the form of a small ID card given out upon first being accepted.
~ In order to become a member, you must gain Burke Windsor's approval first and then ultimately Jewel's.
~ To gain entrance into the club, your name MUST be on a list held by both Jewel and Jet. If your name isn't on the list, don't think about getting in. Don't think about sneaking in either. Security...remember?
~ Obviously this club is meant for men (or women as the case may be) with oodles of money, so don't expect things to come cheaply. Gambling is always high-stakes, with pots of $2,000 or more to be won, and alcohol does not come for less than ten dollars per glass, or fifty dollars per bottle purchased.
~Bar tenders may be PPed as needed until employees are found.

 
The Rules:
~ All species are welcome, but leave the supernatural power struggles at the door. Any non-member seen causing a problem (and believe me, you will be seen) will be forcibly removed from the building and not welcome back. Any member seen causing a problem is subject to removal of membership and a boot in the arse out the door as well.
~In order to become a member, you must gain Burke Windsor's approval first and then ultimately Jewel's.
~Non-members may only bring up to one guest for the evening, while members may bring any amount of guests they choose. A non-member's guest may NOT be female under any circumstances.
~ A member may bring as many guests as they like, but should that guest be an outside female, please expect to pay an extra fee at the door.
~ Non-members are denied access to any of the back rooms completely.
