Information
Casino Pit Boss
Basse Croupier had a promising singing career once upon a time, until a run of bad luck hit him hard and knocked him down for the count. A bankrupt record label, swindling managers, and several scandals ruined his career, leaving him destitute and on the street. His luck finally turned around when Johnny "The Pipes" Sonata, the crooner most people had picked Basse to replace before his downfall, offered the down-on-his-luck singer a job at his casino in the Rogue Isles as a pit boss. Basse's been thankful to Johnny ever since, and has become one of Sonata's most trusted men.
Initial Contact
Hey, you have to be *villain name*. That's crazy, man. Totally crazy. I always meet the most incredible people at this job. Now, I've heard what people have said about you, but I'm not a judgemental type. I'm Basse Croupier, and I handle some of the work Johnny says needs to get done around here.

Catch the Freakshow debtor before he skips town
Briefing
We try to run a good operation here, but sometimes some people, well they find ways to make trouble for themselves. So, when that kind of thing happens, Mr. Sonata likes to have it handled, you know, quietly. Professionally. Without too much involvement from Arachnos, if you understand. If we call them in, and they take a simple case of some Freakshow rowdy who tried to skip out on his debts as a big tax evasion issue, well, then they take it as a challenge, and the next thing you know, a skip-trace turns into a war. So Mr. Sonata likes these things to be handled unofficially, you know? And it just so happens that we have a situation just like I described about to goin' on right now. And here I was just telling you all about how we like to handle things like this. Ain't that a kick in the head?
A lot of punks think they can disrespect Mr. Sonata, and that just ain't cool. So, there's this guy, he calls himself B4nKbUsTah, if you can believe it. He's one of those Freakshow types, and man, he's like a hundred kinds of crazy. Fact is, he's so crazy, he's trying to skip town on his gambling debts. All his other freakshow friends are trying to protect him so he can skidaddle before he has to pay up what he owes. That makes this a two-parter. You'll have to get his location from some of those other Freaks, then corner him. You're a professional, so I'll just leave it to you.
