Jala Ghusoon
When a new, wealthy visitor entering Calimport asks about where they might find a 'good time', they would almost always be directed to the Naiit sabban in the Khanduq ward. Filled with gambling taverns, festhalls, brothels and luxury villas, the Naiit sabban is widely regarded as the entertainment centre of Calimport.
However, the face behind such an establishment is not male as one would expect. The Sultan Daud el Vehmet takes his slice of the vast profits of course, yet the more revered name throughout the sabban is that of Jala Ghusoon, the Perezian Mistress. On paper, her husband the Sabbalad Abbud Karim still controls the sabban but he is rarely even in the city, let alone one sabban - his Guild Arcane duties taking him far out into Calimshan and beyond. In truth, everyone, even the Sultan himself, knows who runs the district - and none question it, for there is not one noble in the city who hasn't experienced a night of Jala's 'hospitality'.
Many would now consider the Perezian Mistress to be one of the most powerful women in the city, and one of the most beautiful as well. Her empire now extends well beyond the sabban and there are few bazaars, brothels or entertainment establishments that she does not have a hand in.
Her breath-taking villa in the heart of the sabban and the outrageous 'parties' she hosts every night are displays of wealth that make it clear this woman possesses a lot more than mere good looks.
