A former nightclub and piano bar decorated in a fox hunt theme originally opened with the intent of attracting an upper crust clientèle. The club never caught on with the wealthy. It did, however, become somewhat popular with those who aspired to upper social circles but had neither the education nor bank accounts to mingle with the well-to-do. Ironically, the result was a collection of social climbers, all of whom were putting on airs in an attempt to mingle with the wealthy patrons they assumed were in attendance at the club. These faux rich would habitually mingle and date, each time thinking they may have found their ticket to affluent lifestyles, and each time eventually realizing that they had found each other instead and returning to the club to resume "the Hunt". Now serviced by The Hospitality Industry, the current clientele are neither rich nor faux rich but are wise enough to know the difference. | |||

By specializing in disco-influenced dance music such as house music, techno, electro and trance, Club Dell ensured a good attendance by the youth of Malton. In recent times it's thick walls have been useful in assuring that major structural damage does not arise from Zombie attacks.

MythosThe Hospitality Industry was born out of the desire of ex-Bravo squad members for the spirit of Bravo Squad to live on after Operation:Metamorphisis. We are the Hospitality Industry and are here to ensure that the Hotels, Clubs and Pubs of Buttonville are comfortable and ready to receive guests who will be well-attended during their stay. While some may go back and forth, bickering about whether NT buildings or malls are more important, we KNOW that there's nothing that so fortifies a survivor as a stiff drink with some friends and a good night's sleep. Therefore, our number one priority is to keep these locations fully operational, with the lights on, the beds made, the glasses freshly washed, and the taps flowing. HistoryHospitality Industry was formerly announced at 09:53 AM on the 12th of August 2009 by Angry Hamish in a thread in the member's lounge entitled 'Bravo is Dead!, Long live artist-formerly-known-as-Bravo'. Four days later Hospitality Industry was officially recognized as a Randoms faction and was consequentially given it's own forum. The original wiki page was created by Zig13 on the 17th August. Places of BusinessThe Hospitality Industry is responsible for servicing of a number of hotels, clubs and pubs in Buttonville HotelsAs a luxury hotel on the Northern border of Buttonville, The Barret Hotel serves as the headquarters and primary responsibility of the The Hospitality Industry. The hotel is managed by chief consierge Angry Hamish.

Now serviced by The Hospitality Industry, the current clientele are neither rich nor faux rich but are wise enough to know the difference.
Sandwiched between the popular Club hunt and the Shickell Arms, Club Dell managed to survive by encouraging a totally different customer base.

In recent times it's thick walls have been useful in assuring that major structural damage does not arise from Zombie attacks. Now serviced by The Randoms Hospitality Industry, the hope is that music can once again be played here. For now it's use is as a bar.
