You have a choice here, if you would like, you can take a walk out in the back, and enjoy some fresh air and the peace of Holy Ground. This place sits on the border of Holy Ground, so if you must take someone's head....take out front, but please try to take it as far away as possible. I just got finished fixing up this place after the last quickening, and I have to say, it wasn't easy. Insurance companies and police and building inspectors all asking endless questions. So please, unless you are practicing in the Private Dojo no fighting, please.
On this level, there is a Library for doing some archival research (e.i. pictures, sound files), or you may also stay here in the den a while, and catch up on old times with some of the other immortals, or the mortal actors who portray them (by the way, I think Elizabeth Gracen does such a great job of portraying my personality. Duncan can't believe the similarities between us. I think the same of Adrian Paul portraying Mac....and they look so much alike, too! It's unbelievable!....Well, at least until the haircut.)
There are some stairs that lead down to the
Basement where you'll find me hosting a private party. It is for my special friends in my newest version of The Queen of Spades (parts of it still have wet plaster on the walls, so please be careful), and where you'll also have a chance to tell me what you think of my place. Hopefully you could tell me Before gambling! I've found that it's difficult to talk to people when they've gambled away everything they had, and some things they didn't).
If you take these stairs over here, they will lead you into the second story of the house, which has been entirely converted into my own personal dojo. There are enough weapons up there to practice with. I stole a few decorating tips from Mac in that department. I'm not here that often anymore, so taking the time to decorate was not a high priority. Though, I did spend some time putting The Queen of Spades back together, but that was because I was avoiding some unwanted attention by the police. They thought I had stollen a piece from the Monet collection...which is completely absurd!
Monet's not my style, but I didn't want the publicity, you understand, being immortal and all, you don't like a lot of questions being asked, like: "where were you at 11:45 Thursday night?"
"Um...officer, I was out taking the head of a 600 year-old man!" For some reason, they just don't seem to like that one very much.
Anyway, on with the tour! There's a bathroom down at the end of that hall to your left, and it's the last room on the right, if you need to freshen up after a work out, or clean up after losing a few too many 'friendly' rounds...the hard way!
The kitchen is just over there, through the den, and if you're lucky, you may actually catch Duncan over there cooking up something....uh...I think he's fixing something Italian right now...trust me, whatever it is----it's Fabulous....and better than me trying to destroy some beef stroganoff!!
On with the tour! Let me introduce you to some of the guests who are already here.
