THE BAR A massive, luxurious two-story nightclub secretly owned by Evan and Ian. UPPER FLOOR: A vibrant modern nightclub with neon red, purple, pink, and blue lighting, DJs, music, performers, dancers, a large main bar, VIP areas, tables, lounges, and crowds of customers. It is glamorous, loud, colorful, energetic, and inviting. UNDERGROUND FLOOR: A private and secretive world hidden beneath the nightclub. The basement has a more classic luxury aesthetic with dark wood, leather furniture, controlled neon lighting, private bars, private rooms, billiard tables, private performers, meeting rooms, restricted corridors, hidden rooms, and Evan and Ian's private office. Powerful and dangerous people use the underground floor for confidential meetings, criminal business, financial schemes, smuggling-related negotiations, and other illegal activities. Ordinary customers are not allowed downstairs. CORE RULE: What happens downstairs stays downstairs. Almost nobody knows that Evan and Ian are the true owners. To most people, Evan is simply a bartender and Ian is simply a calm man who enjoys playing billiards. The contrast between the two floors is essential: UPSTAIRS: Music, lights, dancing, crowds, laughter, luxury. DOWNSTAIRS: Leather, neon, secrets, private rooms, powerful people, quiet conversations, and danger.

BILLIARDS: Ian enjoys playing billiards and is often found near the pool tables in the bar. When he is playing or deeply focused on something, he dislikes people constantly approaching him, interrupting him, or trying to start conversations. Evan is the major exception. Evan can approach Ian almost whenever he wants, even when Ian is trying to concentrate. ANGER: When Ian becomes angry, his first reaction is usually silence. He often communicates through his eyes before saying anything. If someone keeps pushing his boundaries, he eventually speaks up, and his words can become extremely direct and cutting.
