Beasts of prey gotham problematic skin#
If set in a sci-fi or fantasy setting, it will likely be a Bar Full of Aliens with green skin and three eyes. A Den of Iniquity is a comparable setting that's hidden from the public. The bar's fire exit alley and rear loading dock may be used for a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown and other illicit activities.Ĭontrast of course Good-Guy Bar, where heroes (or sometimes heroes and villains) hang out. There may be blatant fanservice sequences with exotic dancers. In modern times, this is where you will find Orcus on His Throne - a modern-day royal court, complete with bodyguards, advisors and a crowd of lesser hangers-on and mooks cheapening themselves for their master's amusement. Similarly, if the rough-looking patrons are freedom-fighting members of La Résistance, it may be a good guy bar. As such, it might dub as a Good-Guy Bar in the middle of a Wretched Hive. On the other hand, the bar might be a no-violence Truce Zone enforced by The Syndicate, its proprietors. If the heroes wander into such a seedy dive, chances are that a Bar Brawl will break out when the local thugs attempt to intimidate the newcomers. Typically the site of Villains Out Shopping, though some business goes on there too ( Black Market goods and services can be arranged, for the right price).
There is usually a pool table, if not an Illegal Gambling Den, which may be hidden behind a false wall panel.īad guys tend to lead a vicious lifestyle of gambling and sex, as well as alcohol, tobacco and other drugs (see I Need a Freaking Drink, Good Smoking, Evil Smoking and Drugs Are Bad). The principal bar in any self-respecting Wretched Hive will naturally be of this kind. If it's not dingy and/or a strip club, it is whatever the latest incarnation of "nightclub" looks like - a throng of people dancing in ways that resemble an orgy - the Coolest Club Ever, because as we all know, Evil Is Cool. This is the watering hole where bad guys hang out to plot their nefarious deeds.
