The International Millionaires' Party (IC, open)

Postby Astholm » Thu Feb 25, 2010 12:04 pm

It was 2pm on a Thursday afternoon in the village of Uxerton, Buckminstershire, Astholm, and millionaire Neil Shergold had decided to hold a party in his mansion home. His mansion home, however, was not a historical one, but rather one purpose-built in 1989 to look older than it was, and he bought it in 2004 as an investment, and it's been a good one for him.

Neil made his money in selling automobiles and mobile phones in Astholm, with an estimated £36.5billion fortune (he, however, will not tell the true extent of his fortune, that's a closely-guarded secret).

One day, over lunch with his brother Adrian, he decided to host a millionaires' party, and sent out the following invitations:

MILLIONAIRES' BALL
All millionaires of the world, please attend this fine party! It will have the finest food and drink, from our nation and everything is to the highest standards.
It will be held at my residence in Bardshaw Heath, Greater Manchester, at 4pm this Friday and end on Sunday morning 10am - live for the weekend!


He waited, and waited but had got no reply. Until now.
---
In the now...

To apply use this form:
Code: Select all
[b]Name of millionaire:[/b]
[b]Age:[/b]
[b]Date of birth:[/b] (for legal reasons this has to be included)
[b]Nation:[/b]
[b]Wealth (estimated, accurate or approximate figure, or n/a if you wish to keep it secret)[/b]
[b]How you made your wealth:[/b]
[b]Number of cars owned and details of them (including colour, transmission etc.):[/b]
[b]How many tickets you require: (please state if any relatives are coming)[/b]
[b]What day you plan to attend (Friday/Saturday):[/b]
[b]Picture of yourself[/b]




This event is semi-formal with regard to dress code, no tuxedos needed, but a suit is by far the best clothing. Tracksuits are not accepted.

Security is tight, and guards are armed with Tasers.

We hope you enjoy the party - LIVE FOR THE WEEKEND!

To the gracious Adrian Shergold,
If you would like we could build you a suite in the Cosmopolitian hoteal if you would like to have the event in my city I created. If you are wondering about style we have a 50's, and roaring 20's theme. Both of them being Cosmopolitan.

From, Mr Wolfe

Name of milliontrillionaire: Michael Lambert.
Age: 25.
Date of birth (for legal reasons this has to be included): January 5th, 1985.
Nation: The Uber Nation of La Habana.
Wealth (estimated, accurate or approximate figure, or n/a if you wish to keep it secret): US$100,000,000,000,000 (US$100 Trillion) approx.
How you made your wealth: Inherited ArmaTech Corporation™ (High tech manufacturing, information technology, internet service provider, defensive equipment and software, vehicle manufacture, cybernetics, robotics).
Number of cars owned and details of them (including colour, transmission etc.): Michael owns 300 cars, dozens of yachts, 5 megayachts, 100 helicopters, 2 mag-lev trains, 50 private jets, 1 airliner converted into a flying mansion, 1 space station with shuttle.
How many tickets you require: (please state if any relatives are coming): One ticket, he wants to enjoy himself a bit.
What day you plan to attend (Friday/Saturday): Both days.
Picture of yourself: Not sending a picture for security reasons, however we have forwarded fingerprints and retina scans for identification validation purposes.
Special requests: Michael wishes to bring some cigars from his native La Habana. Also, he wonders what substances are allowed at this event (drugs are legal in La Habana you see).


OOC: That wealth amount is not that shocking if you look up La Habana in a NationStates economic calculator; you will see that it is a perfectly reasonable figure, considering the massive role that ArmaTech Corporation™ plays in La Habana. Michael's character is meant as a bit of a playboy, but he manages the Corporation successfully; he swings both ways also.

Michael Lambert walked down the steps of his private jet, puffing away at a fine cigar. His entourage followed closely behind, carrying dozens of suitcases. Michael was impeccably well dressed, in a specially tailored suit with platinum buttons, and a tie made from gold and silver fibres weaved intricately together. His shoes were polished so finely that they reflected the sunlight in dazzling beams. He wore a solid platinum timepiece on his left wrist that just oozed sophistication. In his hands he carried a gift for the host of the party: a bouquet of exotic flowers that had been coated in gold leaf on the petals, and silver leaf on the leaves and stalks. Michael and his entourage then entered the fleet of armoured limousines that greeted them at the airport, and proceeded with haste to the party.

Michael Lambert arrived with his entourage at the location of the party, only to find that he was the only person there. Concerned, he had his entourage search the entire building, and found only the bar staff, security guards, casino table staff, and kitchen staff. Michael Lambert was puzzled, where were all the millionaires? Perhaps they are going to be fashionably late? Regardless, he obtained a cocktail from the bar, and obtained several $100,000 betting chips to use on the casino tables. Michael played on the Roulette and Caribbean Stud Poker, and lost himself in the action. After half an hour of play, Michael had won double the original value of his betting chips, and returned to the bar for another drink. While at the bar, he sent one of his bodyguards outside to see if any other limousines had turned up; the grunt returned and shook his head. Michael then despaired, was anyone else even coming to the party?
