Prologue: The Brawl at The Eagle's Nest

May 31, 2016 4:58 pm
Not rally knowing what to do Vargas opts to do what one does in a dive bar to blend in and order drink. After a few and starting to feel a buzz he feels the sudden need to sing a bit a pirating song he knew but could only half remember either due to the level of intelligence or the rounds he had knocked back causing his head to be a bit foggy. Laughing and making a general fool of himself a basket headed drunk Vargas goes into singing songs of being a pirate a bit off key... by a bit I mean he's unsure what keys are when singing.
OOC:
Vargas isn't really the kind to know what to do to get information most likely but making a spectacle of himself and getting drunk is definitely in his wheelhouse. Here's hoping it lets people move about the bar freely.

Jarveena senses beyond the curtain is a small back room. A single figure stands on the other side, probably the guard, he is facing into the main bar. In the room there are three figures and a small table. The could be playing cards, or otherwise making a deal.

Meanwhile, Vargas starts creating a scene. Well, actually, it's more that Vargas starts doing what Vargas does best. Some of the patrons start joining him in the song-that-is-clearly-being-made-up-on-the-spot, and some of the patrons start shuffling about as if to start trouble and shut down the party. Two the guards, who up to this moment had blended in perfectly with the dark corners, step into the fore and start to break up the fight before it begins, doing their best to let the revellers continue revelling (and spending coin). The distraction affords the rest of you an opportunity, in the chaos anything could be possible...

Vargas - 1XP to Pirate, and you gain the following Condition:

Davik takes advantage of the chaos / and circles around the back of the room / keeping to the shadows to avoid notice, / and keeping a close eye on the guards.

Davik gets close to the false door, none of the guards notice him slip around as they are too busy trying to handle the crowd. The guard behind the false door then steps out three full paces into the room. He scans, looking to see if there is anything he can do, and for any sign of mischief.

Davik - 2 successes, 1 XP to Thief

As the guard steps into the room Jarveena sees her opening. She flits from one shadowy corner to another like a cat hunting a mouse, trying to slip past the guard and duck thtough curtain.

Seeing some of his companions sneak towards the back, Belarigen decides to play a Vargas card.

He claps the campaigner on the shoulder, and way-too-loudly calls for a new drink. "Wench, you'll want to bring us more drinks, and try not to let the cat piss do much in these ones, or we'll tan your plump backside. Bah ha ha!" He laughs boorishly, and rocks back in his chair, it leans back too far, and topples over. He crashes to the ground, smacking his head and his feet kicking the table alarmingly causing the not yet empty drinks to jump and slosh about.

"(Gawa ha ha ha... Of course I'm messing up the song I don't know the words!) Well if you remember you sing it!" Vargas yammers on standing and looking at something or something out of focus since his vision was blurry. Shaking his head in an attempt to clear the fog proves to be a bad idea as his entire upper body lurches with what seems to be the cross between a hiccup and hurling. "Ka 'ek that tastes like chew warm grog... Oh a radish..." he comments a hand shoving up into the basket helm he's still wearing and the sound of something crunching hopefully a radish can be heard. Vargas bursts back into song and jeers. It is odd he seems to be only a few inches from the wall and facing that direction. Hopefully it's due to being drunk but Vargas undid his top and pulled it off adjusting his helm before he swung his top around screaming at the top of his lungs... he stopped for a second wondering what he was so excited about and opted for more drinking to be the desired result.

Jarveena tries her best to get a line on the door, but the guard's positioning is just such that she can't possibly get by him. He turns, eyeing her, and stares her down... while he does so... Belarigen falls out of his chair and Vargas begins his loud rendition of a song he just made up and starts stripping as he approaches the hidden door. The guard turns to him and blocks his path, and as he starts reach out for Vargas he lets out an incredible belch and 'sees an opening' then charges forward through the hidden door. Bursting into the room, Vargas crashes into a table with two people sitting at it who were playing cards. His companions slip in behind him, as if this was part of the plan all along.

One of the two who were sitting at the table that is now crushed under Vargas, doesn't look at any of you in particular and says, "What is it you want."

(Caw hell, you remember? You sure) I'd like another grog. I actually don't really remember why I came to the pub in truth I might be almost fully slushed. Vargas inquires before making and admission and starts munching on another radish he found.

Belarigen wanders into the room, acting surprised. "Vargas, we're here investigating possible fire and revenge over the attack at the Eagle's Nest. At least, that is what we heard from those amazing people in the market. Right?"
Jun 23, 2016 6:53 pm
"There was a Fire?!?! I didn't start it. (Well I'm pretty sure it wasn't me I don't remember doing it. I'm not going to cross interrogate myself I'm filled with enough mental problems as is.)" Vargas states.

"Oh and someone's looking for me, I'm here to collect."
Jun 23, 2016 9:10 pm
The woman raises her eyebrow, "Looking for you. Ahh, so there's a bounty on your head. Must be Vargas, your reputation proceeds you." she crosses her arms over her chest, "I'm just the dealer, and the bounty clearly stated you were to be incapacitated, or otherwise dead. You can't collect on yourself." she nods at the others, "But they could collect. Currently set at six hundred gold, paid on delivery. Not to me, of course, to the client."
Jun 23, 2016 9:16 pm
He looks over Vargas speculatively. "600 gold, is it? And where would I take Vargas' incapacitated body to collect?"
Jun 23, 2016 9:25 pm
"Incapa... inkapas... (Oh ya sho', so it's like passes out?)" Vargas mutters to himself, "Well if I get another pint for the trip I'll be out by the time we get there maybe if it's close, easier than carrying me." Vargas explains ribbing his friend with an elbow which happens to be a supporting beam on the wall.

Let's pass a buck - Vargas, who wants you dead?

OOC:
Dwennon Scars: A man rightfully detained since he's a wanted man but still holds a grudge for the part Vargas played... mostly due to his level of intelligence being the main aggravating point.

In a not so sober state of mind Vargas got in a bar fight with a few guys and when they grew blades Vargas opted to defend himself like one does in a drunken battle buzz. When everything settled and the guards came Vargas pointed out 'The other guy started it and he's a wanted man' before he dove out a window and took off (He already had enough bills paying off bar damages). Dwennon was surprised by the turn of events and managed to only escape himself but at the cost of leaving the rest of his gang behind bars, it took some time but he figured out who the slightly off idiot was that put him in this situation. Realization set in of how lucky Vargas had been versus being competent or cunning.

That work?

OOC:
Perfect!
The woman tips up her hat and smiles, "Dwennon Scars." She folds her arms over her chest and leans back in her chair, clearly confident she is in control of the situation, "As it happens there's more than one bounty out on him, so might be you could save yourself if you brought him in. He's at his usual hideout, the Lost Beacon, two blocks west of here. When you saw him last, his crew was arrested... He's since found himself new allies, many of whom have... unique talents. I suggest you think carefully before you assault him in his hideout."
Jul 5, 2016 3:16 pm
Vargas grunts acknowledgement, "(Well yeah she has a point, huh, yeah thats a good point too)... Right love since 'e's escaped from being locked up... Is 'ere a boun' e on 'im too?" he inquires his jagged teeth bearing as he muses with curiousity.
