Elizabeth
She took in the sharp glances with a respectable level of bravery, if she didn't say so herself. Elizabeth does momentarily reconsider her decision, but then a very polite looking gentleman joins the table as well, making her feel slightly safer amongst the possible troublemakers. Returning his smile warmly, she nods. "As good a night as any." And the others seem to agree as they begin to assess the newcomers like appraisers at an auction, wondering just how much money they might be able to squeeze out of them.
Ignoring them, she lifts her drink in lieu of a handshake. "I'm Elizabeth." A few others grumble names or obvious aliases (who goes by 'Stumpy' on purpose?), some even glance at the man with nervous recognition, staying silent. It has her taking another glance, her eyebrow quirking just enough to reveal her intrigue as she accepts her cards. She forgets to look at them as she scans the other players, watching for any of the signs she'd seen earlier.

Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength,
while loving someone deeply gives you courage.
