Who: Everyone! ...aside from slaves who wouldn't be brought by their masters. Where: The Historic Stonecraft House, an establishment located in the heart of town where the Council meets When: February 6, evening Rating: Varied! Why: To close to week long Winter's Crest festival Status Open | In Progress
The sprawling historic building that houses the Council when they convene is decorated to the nines with tasteful and magically enhanced winter decor. Twisting trees seem to sprout from the entrance, the illusion of falling snow in first halls giving the feel of a winter forest opening its woodland doors into a picturesque scene. Of course, the snow isn't real and won't even be felt as it appears to fall upon the guests, not ruining the very fancy attire that all who will be arriving will be wearing. All Masters are strongly encouraged to attend, even if only for an hour or so. Slaves are welcome at the party and allowed to roam at the discretion of their Masters, but there is also a Slave room for Masters who wish for their slaves to be confined to one area of the festivities and not on their arms.
The dining hall is decorated with tables decorated with crystal formations, candles and white flowers. Guests are seated and waited on by the expertly trained slave servers and sommeliers, offering exquisite dining selections for all tastes and some special concoctions for vampiric guests containing a few noticeable drops of rare fae blood.
The ballroom houses a live orchestra, the walls decorated with dimly illuminated orbs to keep the mood lighting low. Classical music is played, and traditional dance encouraged. There's not going to be any electric slide or chicken dance at this shindig.
A lounge with an open bar is littered with numerous seats and tables, a more relaxed setting to converse with your fellow partygoers.
A separate room is designated for slaves whose masters wish not to leave them alone but opt not to have them on their arms or wandering the party freely. Food will be served here as well, and a smaller bar is available along with seats and places to recline and talk.
There is a grand balcony opening up from the ballroom which overlooks a small but lovely garden, flowers blooming in it in spite of the cold weather.
There are several private rooms available on the upper levels for Masters who wish to engage in private activities with their slaves or any other like-minded guests.
