We're all gonna get in a fight! [EVENT: FITE NITE][Warning: Violence and Blood]
People have been disappearing in the Nexus.
Going missing from work, from their homes, from the Plaza.
Locals are staying in their homes, shutting their doors. Even the more shut-in of Nexus goers will be able to tell that something is amiss around here. The Plaza is strangely sparse as far as foot traffic; many of the shops downtown are closing early.
Word is spreading in the Industrial District of an anomaly in the anti-violence field. Easy money for betting in cage fighting. Less easy money but larger amounts for competing in said cage matches. One on one, matches with and without weapons. Rounds go until someone surrenders, is knocked out, or dies. Who would set up such a thing? It's becoming very popular and many a coin is being generated. Are so many people really signing up for this?
Some are. Others are captured and drugged, thrown into the ring against their will with the ultimatum: Fight and get free, or die.
What do you do?
Are you looking to bet your wages? Sign up for a chance at riches? Are you one of the unwilling laying in a dark room?
Or.
Are you going to stand for this if not?
((Please view this OOC post to chat with other players before you jump into a fight! All fights must be agreed upon by participants ahead of time for severity of injuries. Outcomes can be agreed upon or will be decided by a coinflip by myself. Please do not come into this expecting to clean sweep someone without sustaining injuries unless you and your fight partner have agreed ahead of time that would be hilarious. If there are questins, concerns, or complaints PM me. TL:DR Have fun and don't be a dick!))

[Hancock's appearance doesn't ever faze the bear, as the polar bear just nods his head in response to the compliment.] "Much appreciated. Ice Bear dressed to impress." [He thinks for a moment, before offering the ghoul a piece of paper, which seems to contain different columns and names for betting.]
"Ice Bear assumes you'd like to get on the action."

Hancock digs into his frock coat's pockets to pull out a small fistful of bottle caps, and he plops them down on the table in front of him. And he then grabs hold of the piece of paper, and he mhms to himself.
"Oh, I'd love to get in on the action. I'm gonna place a bet on Kaz and the guy named Han Solo." He's going to give those two the benefit of the doubt that they'll win and he won't leave this place with empty pockets.

[After Hancock lays out his caps, a strange dog-like creature floats over with a pouch around his neck. He sniffs at the caps, then picks them up with his tail, carefully putting each one into the pouch. It's pretty clear that the demon is working for the betting house, as many other Inugami are floating around, taking and recording bets for people.]
"Kaz. Ice Bear has never met him before, but has seen Han's strength. Ice Bear wonders who he should bet on next." [He's eyeing the paper, looking at two names: Katsuya and Fortyskey.] "Undead versus police officer. Thoughts?"
