"To risk it all and lose, yes, that is a tragedy, but to have never played at all is the greatest loss of all."

Life is a constant series of gambles, and the fickle hand of fortune throws its dice for us every day, yielding results mundane and profound, terrible or joyous. As a gambler, you deeply believe that you revel in the unpredictability that is life itself, trusting to chance and no little skill to make your name and fortune at gambling dens and casinos across the continent. For you, it is not a matter of winning, though that is certainly beneficial, but cheating random chance through your ability to evaluate the odds, read the subtle signs in your opponents, and use a deft hand to shift luck in your favor. That is the challenge and thrill of the game, and only a complete fool trusts entirely to fortune, after all. Win or lose, you conduct yourself with class and style, putting a smile on even the soundest of defeats, ready to tempt the capriciousness of chance yet again.
