The main floor of Silver Coast Casino

The Silver Coast Casino is a casino located in the Citadel's Silversun Strip. It is owned by Elijah Khan.

Layout[]

The casino is divided into three floors. The lowest floor is simply an entrance stairway ascending to the main floor. The main floor holds the establishment's numerous games: Quasar booths, roulette tables, and varren racing booths. The Quasar games in particular are guarded by a krogan pit boss named Krud. Private booths and seating for patrons adorn the nooks of the level and there's a bar nearby for preparing the customers' drinks. The highest floor has more seating, another bar, and the casino's dance floor.

Surveillance cameras are installed on strategic locations, supplemented by vigilant guards. A public announcer periodically issues advisories to the casino's guests. There are three waterfalls in the area: two waterfalls next to the casino's upper entrances end in small pools with fish, and one on a wall prior to the hallway leading to Khan's office. They have a strict prohibition against touching, and if such behavior persists the public announcer claims they're hanar urinals.


Mass Effect 3[]

In order to solve the mystery behind the identity theft operation on Commander Shepard, the Spectre and their team infiltrate a black-tie fundraiser being held at the casino to gain an audience with Khan, a weapons dealer holed up inside his secure office in the building. With Maya Brooks sneaking through the casino's vents and Shepard covertly distracting or disabling surveillance systems in the way, the team manage to reach Khan in his office/panic room, only to find him dead. A Mysterious Figure shows up on Khan's viewscreen to take responsibility and threaten Shepard however, and the team deduce the figure's next moves through clues left in Khan's computer.

Sometime after these events have been dealt with, Kasumi Goto may be found staging a heist in the casino, provided she stuck around after the incident with Jondum Bau and Zymandis. Shepard can inspect a "suspicious device" installed on a corner near the varren racing games, which leads to a short impromptu reunion where Shepard either lets her be or convinces her to call it off. Some of Shepard's past and present crew members can also be met at the establishment upon acknowledgement of their invitations.
