Den of Iniquity | comment |
Also known as a "house of ill repute", a Den of Iniquity is typically a room, auditorium, or stadium in the Evil Overlord's Evil Tower of Ominousness or Island Base where all sorts of sin and wrongdoing takes place. Although towers are in short supply nowadays, if the Big Bad happens to make and/or enforce the laws they might have one in their mansion (but explaining them to less debauched guests might be tricky). The level of debauchery will vary according to the setting in question; family-friendly stories might make it a lounge for the Mooks to gamble, get drunk, and brawl (not necessarily in that order), while Darker and Edgier works might go for rape, torture, and blood sports. The Den of Iniquity is often a hangout for the Mooks or Faceless Goons who need something to keep them entertained when they're off-duty. On the other hand, whether the Big Bad or The Dragon indulges in the debauchery depends on where they stand on the Sliding Scale of Antagonist Vileness. Often populated with the Paid Harem and Bodyguard Babes. The Den of Iniquity isn't restricted to "evil" characters (as Miss Kitty can usually attest), but most heroes will simply find it beneath them. Specific underground locations are the Torture Cellar and Locked in the Dungeon. Compare Opium Den. Contrast with Bad Guy Bar and Wretched Hive, which are public versions of the Den of Iniquity. |

In The Dresden Files, the psychic 'vampires' of the White Court maintain Club Zero, a 'club' where pretty much anything goes: sadomasochism, drug use, every alignment of sexual activity, gluttony, booze of any sort, anything you want is available, and doesn't even cost that much in terms of money or the like. As Harry recognizes, you can find anything you want in Club Zero...except fulfillment or meaning or love. | |

Supernatural sees Dean haul the angel Castiel to a brothel the night before said angel expects to perish in a confrontation with the archangel Raphael. The incredibly strait-laced Castiel reacts predictably. It takes a hilarious turn when Castiel gets invited into a backroom with one of the girls. Moments later she runs out of the room shouting obscenities at him. Cas apparently read her mind and casually told her it wasn't her fault her dad left her family when she was little. Dean and Cas are forced to leave post-haste when the bouncers show up. |

World of Warcraft: The Den of Mortal Delights in the Black Temple raid instance in has parks, fluffy pillows, fountains, hookahs, silk curtains, nubile dancing blood elves, succubi and other female demons in stark contrast to the rest of the temple. Sunwell Plateau has a zone called the Den of Iniquity but it's empty and wrecked. In Talador, part of the city has Legion demons called "Concubines of Lust" and "Nefarious Madams", along with many mortal Legion members. It's pretty obvious what the purpose of the place is. |

Hive Mind (2016): Overnight clubs are unofficial clubs where people of all levels and from all across the Hive gather to dance, indulge in mind-altering substances, and spend the night with partners met there. The first time Amber goes near one, Buzz tries to very circumspectly explain what they are, until Amber comments that she knows exactly what they are because a team member goes there. Everyone immediately (and correctly) assumes that it's Adika, although there's a bit more surprise that Megan goes with him to dance. | |

Dungeons & Dragons: Compared to the other layers of the Abyss, Shendilavri seems like a paradise, a picturesque land of gardens and marble cities beneath an eternal sunset, where the locals welcome visitors into a life of luxury, passion, and indulgence. Unfortunately, it's also the capital of Malcanthet, Queen of the Succubi, so its demonic citizens tempt mortals into increasing depravity until their souls are utterly corrupted, and beneath the beautiful façade are hidden dungeons and torture rooms. The Nine Hells of Baator are for the most part grimly dedicated to the business of combating the demonic hordes and processing damned souls, but on the layer of Maladomini is a place where devils can unwind. Baatezu can exchange harvested souls for a stay in the Carnival Eternal, where they can enjoy a reprieve from their usual duties ranging from one day for 9 souls to two millennia for 999 souls. "The tortures and debauchery engaged by vacationing devils are best described in vague terms to players." |

Altered Carbon has Head in the Clouds, a floating bordello high in the skies above San Francisco, meant to cater to the elite. Not only does it offer sex, but it also offers its clientele the ability to kill the local sex workers, with the idea that their cortical stacks will be preserved and the house will supply a new body. However, in order to ensure absolute discretion, most of the workers who get killed have their stacks labeled as non-resurrectable on religious grounds. | |

Tiberius's mansion in I, Claudius has one of these. The historical Tiberius, on the other hand, did not want and did not need one of these: an antisocial prick but able administrator, he preferred to spend his time mostly alone in his pleasure palace on the island of Capri, and according to Roman historian Suetonius, "indulging his pedophilic predilections" in private. Although later research showed that Tiberius went to Capri mostly because he wanted to hide from assassins and read in peace. | |

In Toy Story 3, there is a humorous example of a bunch of 'bad' toys hanging around in a vending machine, betting with Monopoly money and triple A batteries. They use a "Speak-And-Say" toy instead of a roulette table. | |

Babel Tower from the beginning of the second season of Code Geass. Gambling, blood-sports, waitresses in bunny-girl outfit... and particularly rich and influential guests could indulge in 'rabbit-hunts'. It's never specified exactly what that means for the caught 'bunnies', but one can make reasonable guesses. Unfortunately for one mafia-boss, however, he happened to catch a Killer Rabbit... | |

The late chapters of Genocyber feature the political elite hanging out in a secret, luxurious and decadent bar with drugs, prostitutes, gambling and torture shows. It serves to drive home the stark Orwellian dystopia the world has turned into, with the powerful people carrying on lives of luxury and excesses while the proletariat is constantly watched, exploited, killed and made miserable. | |

In Caliphate, Castle Noisvastei is a bordello operating under a fundamentalist Islamist state. Even though prostitution is punishable by death in states like the Taliban, it's tolerated under Islamist-controlled Germany where female Christians are kept as sex slaves, but Muslims can also be sent there if their husbands divorce them. It gets much worse when there are also women brainwashed with mind-control devices to be used as cheap pleasure for the customers. | |

In the Book of Jeremiah (of The Bible), God condemns the Jews for treating His Temple like "a den of robbers" by breaking all the commandments except for "keeping the Sabbath holy" (by implication), declaring that "we are delivered" so that they can continue doing their abominations. (The same description is used by Jesus in the Gospels when He goes into the Temple to clean it out of the marketers and money-changers violating her sanctity — an image made much more vivid in the theatrical and stage productions of Jesus Christ Superstar.) In the apocryphal book of 2nd Maccabees, the Temple is actually reduced to this with the introduction of pagan revelry by Antiochus Epiphanes, including sex workers and roasting abominable meats. | |

In the Empath: The Luckiest Smurf story "Smurfed Behind: The Other Side Of The Mirror", Tapper's Tavern in the Mirror Universe version of the Smurf Village is pretty much this, with gambling, smoking, fighting, lots of obscene language, and immoral affections going on between the Smurfs. Not that the village itself is any better by comparison. | |

The Thief and the Cobbler has the two main villains meet in one of these. Mighty One-Eye keeps a harem of scantily-clad women in his camp, some of which he uses as a throne (or a couch), while others belly-dance for his entertainment. Grand Vizier Zigzag approaches the Mighty One-Eye while this harem is on full display. | |

Hercules: The Legendary Journeys: Salmoneus is shown in "Under the Broken Sky" managing what's described as a pleasure palace, much to his displeasure. He insists to Hercules that he didn't know it was this kind of establishment, saying his brother-in-law (the owner) lied about it being a nightclub and stuck him with overseeing things while away on business. As to be expected, Hercules doesn't much care for the place, either, calling it a pit. The episode's conflict stems from one of the workers, Lucina, who fled home out of guilt after her children died of sickness. Her husband, Atticus, has tracked her down to implore her to return home, but she's also caught the eye of the local gang leader. After Hercules takes down the gang and husband and wife reconcile, the locals decide to improve the town's seedy image by turning the den into a senior citizens' center. | |

The Handmaid's Tale has Jezebel's, one of the few establishments left in Gilead where prostitution is permitted, but only to entertain the men. It passes itself off as a Smoky Gentlemen's Club to make it seem respectable in the face of the country's own moral hypocrisy as a supposedly "God-fearing" theocratic state. | |

Hellblazer: In "Mortification of the Flesh", we learn that the Vatican has one, specifically, a room enchanted to be hidden from the eyes of God so that whatever is done in there isn't a sin. Built by Pope Alexander VI, who you may know better as Rodrigo Borgia. And the room certainly lives up to its reputation, having seen theft, fornication, murder, demon summoning... in that chapter alone. | |
