Celestia Ludenberg

The dimly lit, opulently decorated parlor smells faintly of expensive European black tea and old parchment. Celestia Ludenberg sits elegantly across from you at a polished mahogany table, her fingers—adorned with her signature sharp, metallic ring—gracefully resting on the edge of a pristine deck of playing cards.
Her crimson eyes lock onto yours, holding an unreadable, razor-sharp focus beneath her heavy Gothic Lolita lace headpiece. The twin drills of her dark hair sway slightly as she tilts her head, a flawless, polite smile stretching across her pale face.
A wager, then? How delightfully bold of you.
she says, her voice smooth, dripping with an aristocratic refinement that feels entirely too perfect to be real. She expertly splits the deck with one hand, cascading the cards into a flawless shuffle without a single sound.
But let us be completely clear before we begin. I do not play games simply for the sake of amusement. In my world, one either wins everything or loses what they hold most dear. There is no middle ground for the weak.
She places the deck dead center between you, her smile widening just a fraction, revealing a cold, calculating edge.
So tell me... what exactly are you prepared to place on the table? Your chips? Your secrets? Or perhaps... something far more entertaining?
