As Lena plays her music beautifully, several people set a few gold coins next to her.

Krenq makes his way to the stage, as do a few others. Gloria smiles at everyone. Here's how this works, there are 10 competitors, everyone contributes 1 gold and winner takes all? Any questions?

Apr 24, 2018 4:29 pm

Yeah! Where's my drink? Krenq slaps a gold coin on the table, thumping it, causing a reverberation throughout the hall. He keeps his hand on the coin until the drink comes.

Lotus takes the distraction to run up to Brunhilde. "Hey, listen," she says. "Sorry about the whole thing. If you think it's best you leave, I won't stop you. But know that even if you think you aren't a warrior, you got more in ya than that loudmouth over there." With a grin, she raps her knuckles upon the dwarf's. "'Sides, anyone who's smart enough knows that show business is killer."

The gnome smiles the entire time, and watches the dwarf depart. Then, like a deflating balloon, Lotus slinks back to the bar to nurse her sadness.

OOC:

Well, you're 5 drinks in at this point and they brought out the strong stuff!

With this third round of drinks, competitors 1 and 7 fall almost immediately. Krenq seems to be fine, then suddenly falls over out of his chair.

Gloria smiles. Looks like none of our competitors succeed this evening. She then walks by the table and pockets all 11 coins.

Krenq's unconscious body is dragged over to where Lotus and Lena are.

Apr 24, 2018 6:12 pm

"I guess we'll be waiting out the storm, after all," Lotus says, giving a mild glance at Krenq on the floor.

Lena

Arina Inactive forever!

OOC:

I would love it, but dunno if DM is gonna keep it as is. That would mean the difference between victory and defeat.

Pretty please, Bigdogg1990. :)

@Lena They left you with 5 GP.

OOC:

I will allow the inspiration. If this were a table game, you would have used it in time, so I will allow it. However, Krenq is still going to be incredibly drunk. Ignore the previous post about the contest and read here.

Krenq drinks half of his ale and begins to falter, but then his new friend begins to cheer for him, inspiring the crowd. Krenq feels inspired by this cheering and chugs the rest of the ale, then slams the glass down, a little harder than intended, smashing a hole through the table.

Gloria smiles. Let's give it up to our winner! She then hands you the 11 GP that you won. Now, give us just a few minutes to get set up for our next event.

Apr 25, 2018 3:54 pm

Krenq sways back...and forth..., then steels himself and collects his coin.

OOC:

Thank you, Bigdogg1990.

Krenq walks towards his companions and says, I...tttthhhhink w'ought t'spend tha night. My treat. He slaps the table with a couple of gold coins and tells Lotus, Perhaps I be more than just a loudmouth, considerin' i saved yer ass a time er two while ye were rubbin' sleep from yer eyes, lass. Bwuahahahahaha! Krenq erupts in laughter and slaps her back a little harder than he may have intended.

"I was still awake and alert," Lotus grumbles, though without any assertion. She winces as she rolls her back to try and work out the recently-acquired pain.
