[The magistrate prompt]

[Welp, Eleuseus the Hawk (or the Empress' Dog as some people call him behind his back) just called you to his office about a week after you done something you really shouldn't have in Rome. He smiles disarmingly]

Come in, make yourself comfortable - do have a drink, I believe we got much to discuss.

2)

[Long day at politics, backstabbing, or zaniness? There's nothing better to soothe away the tension then with a nice, steaming hot bath in Rome. Servants are flitting about offering drinks, massages, special massages, food, spare robes for those who find their clothes missing in suspicious circumstances, and can-we-be-more-blatant-by-what-they-mean-massages? He takes a glass of wine and waves the rest off. Slowly he turns to you]

You look embarrassed, is this the first time you took part in a public bath?


3)

[Obligatory battle duel thread. Whether it's personal honor, just for fun, serious business, or a demonstration - you are fighting this guy. Eleuseus undoes his long dark overcoat and tosses it behind him. He has no weapons on him, but he looks confident still as he rolls his weight from one foot to the next, giving you a beckoning gesture]

4)

[Party time! Eleuseus is still neat as a pin, and a remarkable show of restraint compare to the rest of the party as he moves through the crowd, whispering to one person, dancing with another before excusing himself, even he rounds out to you, offering a glass]

Are you enjoying yourself?

*How odd, for a British-looking woman to be standing before you, in a distinctive black uniform, with a giant claw over one arm. Still, right now, Kallen Stadtfeld of the Black Knights is your opponent.*

... If you insist.

*And then, she suddenly disappears. Eleuseus, having tracked rumors, already knows Kallen's signature technique of teleportation abuse. The problem is, he also has to try and match her secondary technique of changing how she uses it every time. Which side will she appear at?*

[He drops to the ground, resting on the ball of his foot - knee against his chest as the other lays out, arms crossed loosely to both over the most vulnerable parts of his body while allow him to lash out in a moment's notice. Eleuseus listens, letting his instincts tell him where the girl would pop in from]

*After a few seconds, he hears her land to one side... Several paces away. Then, the claw on her left arm launches, full force, at Eleuseus. She speaks no further.*
