The White Swanfish Gala (Open to All, including party-crashers)
The White Swanfish Gala is this evening - A VIP-only event where invitations are only sent to the likes of the heads of industry, Mover stars, avatars, and their guests. The host is Wil Zan (Slade's affable civilian alter ego), and he is dressed in a fine white and blue silk nehru, smiling broadly and chatting with what seems like every patron there, one at a time. He has brought in the finest chefs to provide an unlimited stream of fine food and drink, popular musicians provide entertainment and lively music to dance to, and this gala is sure to be an event worth talking about for years.
Interestingly, Zan has set up some rather unusual security measures. Though your average riff-raff will be kept out, he has intentionally left strategic security gaps that can be bypassed by the bold and the cunning. Zan actually has men covertly watching these gaps, but instead of stopping these party-crashers, their instructions are to inform Zan. (This serves as a sort of test for potential apprentices that Slade may try to recruit in the future.)
((NOTE: This is an event log, so not every reply has to be toward Slade. Feel free to write what your character is doing at the party or how they snuck in, etc. "Zan" is likely to give you his attention, but others can too.))

Finally down to business
So, you are that Ty Lee. It is an honor to meet you.

How rude of me. I am Wil Zan, and this is my estate.
[He makes a sweeping gesture with his hand indicating that he is talking about the large mansion the party is in. He then points to a wall with portraits of him on it, specifically at an old photograph of a younger him (in his late 20's) wearing a gi. He is posed in a swooping dragon stance.]
I was something of a martial arts enthusiast in my younger years, and studied your chi-blocking techniques extensively. Never quite mastered it to your level, though.
