Episode 1 Scene 1 : The Arrival

Feb 18, 2021 5:38 am
As Quincy enters the Inn he is immediately disappointed by the lack of places to sit so that he could sit and write. But that annoyance is brief, and he makes his way into the crowd unintimidated. He walks up to the first person and asks them, "Excuse me, would you happen to know if there is a Hathaqua here in the Mamz?" (with emphasis on the z in Mamz, he's not sure what the deal with that is, but tries to play it off as if he did). If they respond that they don't he'll simply thank them and move on to the next person. (Unless no one seems to know who that is).
Feb 18, 2021 6:08 am
The Yroc looks at Quincy and then throws back his head and bellows out, "Hathaqua a midget's lookin' fer ya." The sound of his voice resounds through out the room. Then he looks back down at Quincy, "Puny little man, why you in this place, this place for tough folks, strong folks? You look like... little girl."
Feb 18, 2021 6:39 am
Quincy smiles back, "Oh, I do? Why, thank you." He knows that was meant as an insult, but is not threatened by it and sees no purpose in being offended or provoked. If anyone eventually responds to the Yroc's bellow, Quincy will whistle over to the Corwyn and Magnus and head to greet them.
Feb 18, 2021 7:22 am
Corwyn looks to see if anyone has reacted, as if theur name was called when the Yroc shouts "Hathaqua." He also looks to see which person is having the 'mam' remarks made to them.
Feb 18, 2021 9:18 am
As the Yroc shouts out he seemed to put an odd emphasis on the name and a quiet groan comes from a group across the inn who seemed to be engaged in some sort of game. Some of the Yroks and Uriaks are smiling widely and you hear comments of "Did you hear that Hathaqua, someone's here to see you!" and "Go on Hathaqua buy the girl a drink!" as a low chuckling noise comes from the group.

One of the Uriaks leaning against the sideboard stands up, "Shaddup you lot! 'Ent no-one but me dad allowed to call me that and you all know it."

He moves over to the group of newcomers and looks over each of them. "Well none of you is me Da' and I don't owe anyone no money..." An Uriak in the back begins to speak but Hathaqua cuts him off "I don't owe you nothin' Giz. Ya won the round but ya still owe me for the bottle of whiskey you spilled last week when you were too pissed ta walk straight!"

He turns back to the group "You's must be here from the garrison, only that bloody Weimin still gives people my full name. Can't be helped though, he's an old friend of me Da's and he'll call me that 'till the day he dies. Name's Hath. What can I do for ya?"

It is fairly easy for Corwyn to see who is responding to the name Mam as she is a towering figure of divine female Yroc flesh standing close to 8 feet in height and rather well muscled. She is also just as mouthy as the rest of the lot within the Inn but it is apparent that she commands a major measure of respect from all within and considering the crowd that says alot.

The Yroc Quincy approached is not deterred my his response and instead cuffs Quincy on the shoulder which would have probably slightly staggered someone not so centered. "Oi boy dat is not 'ow ya respond, dat get ya killed. Speak up fer yaself, stand ya ground unless ya really be a girl dat is, and fer a Human ya'd be a mighty ugly one if ya were. So tell me lad, can ya fight, or yee be as yella as ya sound?"

Suddenly caught between two conversations, Quincy tries his best to hear both people speaking to both him and the group, then first turns to Hath, "Yes, we are newly arrived here in town and were just inducted into the garrison, just one moment please though, sorry." He then turns to the Yroc, "Yes I a man, and yes, I can fight. I am trained in the art of ki combat, and I can swing this quarterstaff here pretty well." he brings the quarterstaff around and holds it in both hands and swings it around a tiny bit, displaying its master craftsmanship and perfect balance. "Now, I apologize, but we are on a mission here, and I need to speak with this gentleman here. May you find peace." he gives a respectful nod and goes to turn away from the Yroc, hoping that was enough to dismiss him without inciting an incident.

The Yroc grumphs but does not let up, "You need stick to fight, that not true fighting, you bare fight?"

Magnus says "Yes we are here from the garrison, sent to speak to Hath about certain matters, is there anywhere we can continue this conversation in private?" He looks around at the Yrocs, feeling the tension rise within him, through his mind he keeps thinking " you are a man of god now, do not give in to your base instincts and start a brawl.

Quincy smiles back, "Yes, I do fight with my bare hands, and do it pretty well. But I am not in the mood to show off right now if that’s okay."
Feb 18, 2021 10:40 pm
"Good I accept challenge," with that the Yroc stands up and is a good foot or two taller than Quincy and he bellows, "Bare fight! This human challenge Mukitz to bare fight and Mukitz accept!" Some hooting and hollering takes place in approval and some of patrons further away begin to collect around the large open space on the floor. Mukitz begins taking off his gear and then hands a small rodent to Hath, "Hath you watch stuff and hold Boo so he can see." Then he finishes stripping down completely before stepping into the circle.

Quincy sighs. This isn’t what he wanted but he supposed if he wants to fit in around town and play nice, he’ll have to get used to their ways. "That’s... that’s actually not what I said. But fine."

He turns to Magnus and Corwyn, handing one of them his quarterstaff and backpack. His voice becomes grave, "Please keep these safe. Watch for pickpockets." Turning to meet Hath’s eyes, "I apologize, but I guess I have something to take care of before we can talk."

He is already dressed for the occasion and so he doesn’t have to go through the whole process of taking anything off, he simply steps into the ring, and stands still for a moment, breathing deeply with his eyes closed, centering himself before slowly reopening his eyes and taking a prepared stance.

Hath smiles and takes the rodent, holding it in front of him. He turns to the rest of the newcomers "Don't worry yer selves, it's just a bit o' fun. Mukitz won't hurt him too bad. If the skinny boy can punch like other monks I've seen Muk might have a headache tomorra! Just enjoy the match and cheer ya boy on!

When Quincy turns to the floor to begin to take his place he sees that Mukitz is completely naked apparently a bare fight is one you do the ole style way, with no clothes. Perhaps an old tradition to prevent someone from hiding any weapons.
OOC:
Yes roll your Initiative (1d10 + Dex Mod) -- I use 1d10 as it increase the benefit of having a higher Dex as I feel it should. Note all damage is subdual damage unless you state otherwise -- keep in mind trying to kill another citizen is illegal -- oh and go ahead and be cinematic about your combat if you like -- you are using martial arts versus brawling tactics -- and if anyone is curious and has Nature Lore -- Boo is a Pika but he does not sneeze much ;) so no Ah-Chu

Mukitz Initiative - (1d10+2)

(3) + 2 = 5

Corwyn takes Quincy's back pack and weapon, not liking the way events have unfolded in Mamz Inn so far.
OOC:
I thought Quincy had a masterwork Adamantite spear, rather than a quarter staff :)

Oh crap, you right haha, my bad. I was thinking of another character of mine. So yes, Quincy hands over his spear. I think I mixed it up a while ago and then continued to misremember it.
Quincy is surprised when he reopens his eyes to see his opponent completely naked. But just thinks, alright, this might as well happen. He throws off his robes and sets them on the side of the ring.

He waits patiently for his opponent to make the first move. And as soon as the yroc begins to charge and reach for him, he ducks out of the way, landing a quick jab into his side as he fumbles by, throwing him off his balance. Quincy uses this opportunity to sweep the yroc's legs out from under him, sending him clattering to the ground. Before he can even get up, Quincy lands another punch into the yroc's stomach.

OOC:
I'm assuming the 22 and 19 hit him so I will roll damage for that. With the Open Hand technique, I will force him to make a Dex saving throw for the first Flurry strike or be knocked prone, and hopefully get advantage on the second. If he passes that saving throw then I will make him make another one for the second Flurry strike. And yes, he is definitely not trying to actually kill this dude, all nonfatal damage. If I did something wrong or missed something just let me know, I know that was a lot of a sudden and I've never played a monk before lol.
Ki Save is 14

Corwyn watches, impressed by Quincy's flurry of blows. He keeps hold of the spear and backpack.

OOC:
Okay since this is a duel and to facilitate cinematic combat -- going forward simply include the saving throws for the Mukitz since it is being rendered by the same pseudo-random generator I would be using ;) -- also being that its a duel we we will be doing round by round initiatives I should have mentioned that earlier
AC : 16
Saves : (Dex +2)
Total Damage Taken : 13

Mukitz moves in but before he can hit Quincy, Quincy launches into a flurry of activity catching Mukitz a bit off guard and knocking him to the ground. When Quincy finishes Mukitz points a finger at Quincy and says, "I'll getcha." Then gets back to his feet and moves a bit more cautiously.
