In Bhaal's name.
"The Bazaar stole London three decades ago. Of course only anarchists and revolutionaries say 'stole' any more. Everyone who matters has grown to know and love the status quo. It's quiet down here. All those jewels and mushrooms and all that black water. What could be better?"
Ah, indeed, who knows what COULD be better? May you sit and sip your mushroom plonk at Caligula's with the other half-asleep patrons. Or perhaps you wander the dark Wolfstack docks quietly while the crackling of unwatched fire accompanies your light footsteps. Then again, maybe these backdrops aren't quite your desired environments... but unless you indulge in your own splendid honey-dreams or cross your dancing feet between the colonies, you're here to stay. This is the Neath, this is how it is down here.
But don't despair, there's plenty to do. You can write your own novels to be traded for your name whispered or shouted on street corners during public readings. Or unchain art for a friend and wait until she repays you for your time and sacrifice in private. Maybe the night is right for visiting the Carnival where things you've only ever seen in dreams or lust come to life in front of you. Just be sure to give the moist grey skin of a huge man beside you enough room to move should he need to.
Slip on your newly-pressed shirt, brush off every cat hair and let its secrets go with it, do up the cufflinks and bring the brim of your chosen headwear down low over your dark eyes. Debate whether the chill of tonight is enough for a coat, or if your back can take a good breeze. Lock your front door and give the hardened face of the constable outside a polite nod, as she stands static on the pavement. Will she nod back, or will her eyes narrow further? Tug the brim of your hat down again. This is the Neath.
We don't need to know your name to know what you are.
Fallen London is a free-to-play browser game of epic proportions. The reason this check is in Fantasy and not Fandom is because only the setting of the Neath will be used, and no storyline from the game itself. Therefore, if you know the game inside out, very slightly or not at all, you should be able to have fun regardless. If you wish to know more, here are two websites to help you out:

So, delicious friend... pull up your stockings and join us on the docks. We're waiting.
