Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) Surprise. Thanks for playing. I'll get your stats soon. Hopefully you actually get the subtle clues. "Oooh. Who's this handsome rogue?" Edited July 7, 2012 by Capt.JohnPaul Quote
TheBoyWonder Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Lycan smiles and replies " Lycan Dean. And may I ask who you are my fair maiden?" Lycan bows then kisses the woman's hand, still smiling. Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) "Hello there. Usually I'd be interested in a game of blackjack, but for now I'm looking for some people. We met this lady (er, I don't remember her name, if she even gave it ) in the residential area and she said that she had some friends that we could talk to..." "Er... you'll have to ask her. What would you like? I got mead, potions, etc." Lycan smiles and replies " Lycan Dean. And may I ask who you are my fair maiden?" Lycan bows then kisses the woman's hand, still smiling. "I'm Patricia." "My names Lucy. I'm Patricia's friend. I don't have good luck. Mind playing cards for me? My friend tells me you need help getting into the tower. If you win me some money, I'll get ya in."

TheBoyWonder Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 "So your name is Patricia, a beautiful name for a beautiful lady! " Lycan then winks mischievously! Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 A familiar man from the market enters the tavern. He completely ignores Lycan and goes straight to Sorrow and Benji. "Familiar faces. Heroes, come take a seat. We have things to discuss do we not? Let's get to business. 50 gold to know all about politics, nature, or history. Alternately, I could explain all three, for 50 gold, but they won't be in-depth. Do you prefer anything?" Quote
TheBoyWonder Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 Lycan decides to ask Benji for advice " Shall we play Blackjack for Lucy? If we get her some money she gets us in. Maybe a bit more too!" Quote
Endgame Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 "Deal me in. Benji, please speak to our friend from the marketplace - I'd recommend either politics or the complete bundle, but the choice is yours. I look towards Patricia and Lucy. "I apologize for the fiasco at the residential corridor - I never realized or meant to offend you." Quote
TheBoyWonder Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 " I'd recccomend getting information on history. The history of it could leave vital insights on how to enter the tower." Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) "Place your bets! Rules are: Single deck, you can split on any same pair, and dealer hits on soft 17! Place your bets!" Sorrow's hand: 8,7 Dealer: 10,? Lycan, if you want to play, just join in. Just like Vegas. You all know how to play Blackjack I assume? Edited July 7, 2012 by Capt.JohnPaul Quote
TheBoyWonder Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) " Let's try my luck at BlackJack" OOC: Is this the 21 version of BlackJack? Edited July 7, 2012 by TheBoyWonder Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 " Let's try my luck at BlackJack" OOC: Is this the 21 version of BlackJack? Yes. Place your bets. 7,3 Quote
Endgame Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 "Going soft on 17 is usually to be beneficial to the house, but then again, who am I to resist a game of cards? I'll bet 10 gold to start. Great, an 8 and a 7. I got to get 6 or lower, so I might as well try my luck and see what Miss Karma has in store for me today. "Hit me." Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 Lycan sees Sorrow draw a 10. "Broke!" Sorrow loses 10 gold. Quote
Endgame Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 "Xre'travit..." I mutter. It's a profanity in necromancer cant, and an unspeakable one at that. "I'll join back in next hand." "Don't blow all of our gold..." Quote
TheBoyWonder Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 (edited) " Sorrow, lend me 30 gold please! You will get it back by the end of the quest!" " I bet 10 gold. Hit me" Edited July 7, 2012 by TheBoyWonder Quote
Endgame Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 " Sorrow, lend me 30 gold please! You will get it back by the end of the quest!" " I bet 10 gold. Hit me" "Sigh. I suppose, just pay me back when you get the funds, okay?" Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 Lycan- 7,3,A ---BLACKJACK! Dealer- 9,10, hits, J--- Bust Lycan gains 10 gold. *Shriek of delight* You're really good at this! "... Place your bets! Next round." Sorrow- Q,2 Lycan- A,3 Dealer- 2,? Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 "I bet 15 gold. Hit me." 10. "Bust!" Sorrow loses 15 gold. Quote
Endgame Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 "Xre'travit... again. Dealer, please deal me in again. I bet another 15 gold. It's the least you could do, since I'm going to be paying for your kids' college tuition at this rate." Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 "Xre'travit... again. Dealer, please deal me in again. I bet another 15 gold. I I need to wait for Lycan to bet first. t's the least you could do, since I'm going to be paying for your kids' college tuition at this rate." "People can't go to college here. Well, they couldn't since the Fantome Croise came here." Quote
Endgame Posted July 7, 2012 Posted July 7, 2012 "What's his reasoning behind that? I heard he was just a landowner, not a political leader." Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 7, 2012 Author Posted July 7, 2012 "What's his reasoning behind that? I heard he was just a landowner, not a political leader." "I have no clue. There are some people who know more about these things. There's someone, umm.. whats his name? Jonothan, that's it. He's a farmer who hangs out in the market place a lot. He knows all about this Fantome guy. I think he's starting an opposition movement. Oh look, he's right in the tavern. Looks like your friend is talking to him." Quote

You know as well as I that it's hard for types like me to resist a good old game of blackjack, heh." Quote
