This is a smoky, rowdy bar in the warehouse district, frequented by workmen, gamblers, and the like. It's interior is crafted out of battered aluminum, welded to resemble the inside of a transcumulous shuttle. Covering the walls are holograms of beautiful women in a plethora of risqué positions. A bar dominates the south side of the room and various tables are scattered throughout. |

The doorman scowls at you as you enter the dim and smoky room. The bartender, as well as a handful of patrons glance at you curiously as you enter. |

Casper waved a hand at the barkeep, "A drink, if you will?" he said as he walked to the bar. He took a stool and sat on it with his only elbow on the bar top. |

"Our house amalgam", the bartender says, handing you a glass of striking blue liquid all the while taking in your armless state, as well as your dress. Behind him on the wall are assorted bottles of glowing liquid from which he pours. A man sits down beside you: he is dressed in a simple leather jacket and sports a pair of shades. "New around these parts?" he says, taking off his shades. |

"I dunno, maybe, maybe not." Casper replied. He eyed the man beside him, his instincts told him that this guy's trouble. He took the glass with the blue liquid and threw it down his throat. |

The man smiles slightly: "let me guess you can't pay for that" he says, gesturing to your now- empty glass. "I'll cover your tab if you tell me a little about yourself". He signals for another shot of the firey azure liquor, and passes you the glass. |

"Thanks!" he said to the man, raised his glass to him then drank it with one shot, "Ahhh! tha's good." He then turned to the man and said, "Well can't tell you much. I don't even remember how I got to this planet. All I remember was I'm Venusian, that's it." |

"Hmm, seems you need a friend sonny: in that respect, I'm your man". He holds out his hand, "Drogan's the name. And you are?" |

Although still unsure of Drogan's true intentions, he took his hand and shook it, he learned before that it's best not to cross men offering friendship unless your sure of his intentions. "Walken, Casper D Walken, a friend's not what I really need right now but I guess it's alright." He said, "Well, Drogan my friend, what can I do to repay these two shots?" |

"Unless you need more, you've given me all I need". If you could do me a small favour, i'd provide you with a room and some reasonable clothes..." |

"Sure, I kinda figured I need a change in wardrobe. What might that favor be, I'm OK with it so long as a one-armed fellow could do it?" |

"As you seem new here", he remarks, "The crowd doesn't know ya, so you'd be of infinite help to me in more than one regard". "'Ol Tarquin over there" (he gestures to a nearby table where a holocard game is in progress, and to one man in particular) "I owe him alot--a whopper of a personal craft to be exact--I was wondering if you could help me rig a gambling gig". "Whadda ya say?" He puts another glass of liquor into your hand. |

"Well, I may be new here but wouldn't I be too conspicuous because of my condition." He rubbed his right shoulder again. "And one more thing, how do you do that sort of thing?" he said to Drogan. |

"Once I give you the rundown-and some new clothes-we'll be just fine" he says with a smirk. He gestures towards the table and says "here's the deal: I'll give you fifty zodes in advance, and another fifty later, if you tell me what his holograms are". "it's as simple as that" he says, withdrawing a couple of metal spheres from his pocket. "Are you in?" |

"OK sure, why not," Casper said, thankfully the concept of money never did left him along with his other memories. "Just be careful, i dun wan' no trouble, you hear?" |
