'''Mysteries''' was a nightclub in the [[holoband]] game environment known as [[New Cap City]].  Mysteries featured a show hosted by [[Cerberus]] who espoused riddles and posed questions to select audience members.  Those audience members who failed to answer correctly were derezzed and banned from New Cap City permanently.

[[Tamara Adama]] visited Mysteries looking for answers, leaving her signature in the lobby.  Her father, [[Joseph Adama]] - in search of Tamara - entered the nightclub with [[Emmanuelle]], inadvertently drawing attention to himself and becoming the target for Cerberus' questioning.  Refusing to even hazard a guess, Adama was ejected from the club.  However, upon discovering Tamara's signature in the lobby, Adama used [[amp]] and forced his way back into the club, opening fire on the patrons.  Adama held a weapon to Cerberus' head and forced him to give him information on Tamara, though the host knew very little.

The Mysteries nightclub location was created through extensive digital environment work by visual effects artist [[Farrah Welch]] during Spring 2010 production. The original practical set was deemed insufficient for the intended scenes, leading to a comprehensive replacement of the virtual environment.<ref group="production" name="welch_portfolio_gallery_mysteries_theater_replacement">{{cite_web|url=https://farrahwelch.com/gallery/mysteries.php#:~:text=This%20scene%20was%20shot%20on%20a%20very%20uninteresting%20set|title=Digital Artist: Gallery - New Cap City Mysteries Theater|author=Farrah Welch|publisher=Farrah Welch Digital Portfolio|accessdate=August 8, 2025}}</ref>
 
Welch created an early 1900s theater extension while preserving the lower portion of the building where actors performed their scenes. The adjacent structure was entirely replaced with a period-appropriate pawn shop, both designed to establish the historical atmosphere characteristic of New Cap City's bygone era aesthetic.<ref group="production" name="welch_portfolio_gallery_mysteries_theater_design">{{cite_web|url=https://farrahwelch.com/gallery/mysteries.php#:~:text=I%20created%20an%20early%201900s%20extension%20to%20the%20theater|title=Digital Artist: Gallery - New Cap City Mysteries Theater|author=Farrah Welch|publisher=Farrah Welch Digital Portfolio|accessdate=August 8, 2025}}</ref> The lighting design was specifically developed to support the eventual conversion to nighttime scenes, maintaining visual continuity with the club's nocturnal atmosphere as depicted in the narrative.
