staffed shop Mordaunt's House for Events Betting



It's not all dark, webs and conspiracies in Knockturn Alley. A long way down the road, there is a small shop representing an organisation that takes bets at odds on various things, generally sporting events in the wizarding world.

The shop is clean and neat, there is no shifty-looking decorations or cobweb corners. There are four aisles leading up to the long counter. When there is a betting event going, the shop will be decorated accordingly, whether it was a Quidditch championship match, or a Gobstones round, or BoG elections or any other event. The bets will be taken using the small box at the end of each aisle, it will be magicked by the shopkeeper to fit each event. There's a hole to insert you entire hand with the coins, state your bet, and let go of the coins before retracting your hand from the box.

Usually, the organisation leads the sporting events bets at the locations of the events. The betting in this shop is usually about lowkey ones, or events that are for the long haul (e.g. elections, official duels..etc). This shop serves as a place to pick up your winnings, make an inquiry or file a complaint of any sorts.

Important notice: only wizarding currency accepted.

Remarkably, maybe even unbelievably Cutty had never been to Knockturn Alley. He never really found the need and so he stopped upon entering it to take in the information. He'd gotten rather good at spotting the signs of status. Damien. Damien Anderson-Belfort with the coping skills of a slug in salt was unmistakably of wealth and privilege however humble his heart and Aditya Rehman, with his drive & ambition was working class.

But there were other things too.

Things one could see visually. Like what kind of razor they used to shave, thread quality and how they smelled. Especially how they smelled. His sense of smell was no longer what it once was since he'd been (unwillfully mind you) transfigured from a half-animal into his fully 'human' self. But quality was strong enough that one needn't have a drop of bloodhund dna to detect it.

This place seemed charged. Not rich. Not poor. But generating. It wasn't the wild west lawlessness he'd heard it was, but one could smell it. There were opportunities here that didn't exist elsewhere. Perhaps more so here for him than anywhere else. He considered this as he read the sign which mysteriously contained his name. Where else were his cousin's relatives?

He did not stop by the bookie cart. He had somewhere to be and a time to be there, but he did not forget it or it's location.

Dante could smell the amount of money to be made and lost of course. You are not always so lucky. Which if Dante was honest. He was more unlucky than lucky. But he had fun doing it. This is the place he had come to have fun and well he was interested in it. Betting was fun to him at Hogwarts and post.

He would be making his way over to the bookie cart in time. But right now all he wanted to do is walk around and see what is being bet on.

He really did miss betting on random things at Hogwarts. It was just not the same.
