M/UCAB | INVITE ONLY | CASINO NIGHT

What: Casino Night
Who: Emrys hosting for an intimate group (around 30). Invitees are the sorts of people with a taste for luxury and indulgence but also whom Emrys knows to be discreet, and old enough that Emrys doesn't consider them teenagers.

Specifically: Desiderius Morgan, Camilla Prewett (plus Fitzroy Prewett he guesses), Arthur Pettigrew (whose invitation does not mention his wife but does say he can bring friends if desired), Trystan Selwyn, Ambrosia Selwyn, Porphyria Dempsey + her rakish brother, Langston Dashwood

(If you want to come and I didn't tag you please ask me first so we can establish how Emrys knows your character!)
Cost: No, but gambling is expected.
Where: Emrys' home in Bristol
Why: This is actually just a very elaborate way to flirt with Art Pettigrew.
When: Jan 21st

Various rooms on the first floor of Emrys' house have been dedicated to card games and other tabletop gambling activities. Hors d'oeuvres are laid out in the dining room alongside a staffed bar for mixed drinks.

Any of the players may gamble with money or with "favors" — tokens they can receive free of charge from a staff member at the table by the floo. The favor tokens magically record who they originally belonged to and who has won them, but there's no magical compulsion element to them at all; it's basically the same level of pressure as getting a dare in truth or dare. :P Emrys is branding them as more exciting and adventurous than just playing for money (since most of the guests have plenty of it) and will be making fun of anyone who seems hesitant to play with favors as the night goes on. The real, unadvertised reason for the favors is that he doesn't want anyone's night ending when they run out of money, so these are an encouragement to keep playing.

The idea with the favor tokens is that you would cash them in with the initial owner, either during the party or later for a favor of your choice.
