[QUOTE="Nthal, post: 8081221, member: 6971069"] You have the gift of both understatement and foreshadowing. :) The location, The Tenth Pit, AND the comment about it being a 'Current favorite of the Sensates' going there for that reason are canon actually, covered in the supplement "In the Cage: A Guide to Sigil." (page 59). While Erin's desire to weed out undesirables by sending them to the Gilded Hall is covered in the DM's Dark in the "Factol's Manifesto" (page 141). There is a subtle point though, a TRUE Sensate would turn down an experience if death or serious harm were the result; being a Sensate isn't Chaotic stupid. This is covered in the "Factol's Manifesto" Page 138 on roleplaying Sensates. But since that is DM's accessory, how would a player know that? So even if we assume that an evening's 'diversion' might be common, this contract isn't. I would posit, most Sensates would say no to this kind of experience. And Erin Montgomery, while realizing that the reason for the Sensates popularity in the Cage is because fun diversions is the only way to keep the poor and rich alike sane in a packed city. But going overboard, in any direction is a bad idea, and gives the Sensates a bad name. But here, Myrai isn't even a Sensate yet. And this isn't the typical contract; she's been peeled after all. As a Sensate she actually would have said no to a normal 'session' mostly because growing up the in the Hive was an experience in pain enough. She is rational in in sense that this wouldn't open up a secret of the multi-verse (although it might open up secrets about the self.). If she was raised in the 'Lady's Ward' as part of a rich family, or was a worshipper of Loviatar from the Forgotten Realms/Finnish Mythos, she might have answered differently. A hiver's life is pain by comparison. [/QUOTE]
