Demi looked at the gathered rabble and favored them with another smile. Soon enough he would be finding which of these would help his cause and which would hurt it. He paced on the balcony above the main hall, in plain view of those that had answered his fliers. Fliers. He thought with and laugh and shook his head. He had never been one for conventional methods, and besides anyone who was willing to take on the Pantheon was going to have to be a little strange. A very tall man stood out in the crowd, he had a sturdy look about him. He was sincerely hoping that he would make it through, they could use a man like that. Ben looked up at Demi from the crowd and Demi nodded. Ben went wordlessly to another room and left the criminals in the hall to their own devices. Demi had given the signal and Ben and gone into action, all that was left now was to wait and reap the benefits.
The main hall was really rather boring. He toyed with an ancient revolver at his hip. He never did like to use guns unless he had to, but in this case his hands would not serve the same purpose.
He looked across to the other end of the balcony at Sahara. She was still as beautiful as ever. Of course that meant very little considering her immortality , but for some reason Demi had gotten the idea that she would be less mesmerizing, a little less enchanting. His smile widened a bit. Her temper was the same. He could tell she was irritated that she had not been let in on how he would be choosing these people. He honestly didn't know whether this method would really weed out those that would be less than helpful but it was certainly going to be enjoyable.
The crowd was getting restless now. The silence has lasted for a long stretch of time and he could feel the more short-tempered members of the crowd. Their blood was beginning to boil. He was getting excited. He stopped playing with the revolver. He was likely to shoot his own foot toying with the trigger like that. A bald man with a tattoo spit some Taer on the floor and Demi could smell it from the balcony. He was an unpleasent one. It took a strong stomach to chew on a drug made primarily of human remains. Then again he likely did it to appear tough. Still that is a long way to go. He could already see the side effects taking the man, he'd probably been using the stuff for years. His tattooed neck also had a large lump on it's side. It was still treatable at that stage, the mans mind was fine and despite the puss the rather large boil could be taken care of. But he didn't bother to tell him to get it treated. He would be dead soon. Demi could tell.
The man who tried so hard to be tough began to draw more Taer from his pouch but stopped. And proclaimed loudly enough that the whole room heard.
"Fuck this."
Demi shot him.
He smiled widely and put a finger to his lips in a hushing motion.
