Castle Amber: A D&D Adventure

You don't seem to have any gold on your character sheet. So, as far as I can tell you have 0 gold.

I didn't remember how much we were supposed to get, so I wrote down what seemed like a believable amount of stuff and figured you'd know how much change, if any, I had. But I'll just assume I invested all of that in food and drink. What good is gold to a headless mule?

Galse, hearing of hosts and hopeful for word of a pantry, follows the others and introduces himself to the Fancy Man. Unable to think of a way to politely turn down the wager ("What good's gold when we're gonna die in this fog? The man with the food holds the REAL power" he thinks to himself) without seeming like a wimp ("Where the hell do you hit a thing like that to knock it down anyway?") Galse finally decides to just stand there and look tough, thesweat dripping from his brow paying silent testament to the mental marathon he just ran.

Let's just assume your food stuffs is really expensive then. Trouffles, Steak, and Lobster

The Boxing Warforged bounces gingerly around the ring, thrusting punch after punch into the air.

Kalar assumes the role of leader (as is only natural, in his mind) and says, "That sounds like a wonderful idea, my good host. But, I believe you have us at a disadvantage. We have only just arrived, and are disoriented, weary, and ill-prepared for such a match. You have been waiting for us, and while I would not like to be a poor guest, I would also not like to provide you with a poor fight."

Kalar then gestures to Ardan and says, "This man shall fight for us. But, if I may suggest something to make the contest even more exciting? To make things more interesting both this man and myself shall enter the ring together. Your champion is obviously in the prime of his fighting ability, and as I said before, I would not want to deprive our good host of watching an interesting fight. However, I also doubt we shall prevail even given there being two of us, so to liven up the match, I would suggest that we wager 200 gold. If we are able to knock your man down, we win. If he is able to knock even one of us out, not both, he only needs to knock one of us out, then you will win. What say you?"

"Don't think you can beat my man alone do ye? Ha! Fine, we shall play by your terms. You shall get 200 gold if you win, but if my man wins... I get everything you have. Everything!"

With that he chuckles as he motions that you should disarm and enter the ring.

"Very well then, good host." Kalar says as he disarms.

He hands his gear to Galse and then whispers to Ardan, "Follow my lead."

He then turns to the rich man and says, "Very well then, my good host. I agree to us giving up everything we have should we lose. Are we agreed then to the terms of the fight as I presented them to you?"

Yes, of course, of course!
Prepare for the fight!

Kalar holds up his holy symbol and bows his head before it, "Luck be with us." and gets ready to fight.

Suddenly roped in to boxing this bizarre opponent, he hands off his meager belongings to Galse and joins Kalar in the makeshift ring.

Follow his lead, alright...don't get knocked out...
He'd rather not be the one to lose the parties gear. In fact, he's come to rather like his Clover shield...

Ardan, with those final thoughts, gets ready to fight.

A murmur can be heard coming for the chairs holding the disembodied eyes. One by one they raise slightly off the chairs to float at about the height one would expect eyes to be if there were a person attached to them. Hoots and whistles can be heard then, coming from the chairs.

The Boxing Warforged goes to a corner of the ring and suggests the two other boxers representing the party do the same. It begins to stretch as the fancy man bellows.

"Good evening esteemed guests! Welcome to tonight's main event! In this corner, we have not one but two contenders hailing from parts unknown. And in this corner, the Master of Martial Arts, the Bone Breaking of the Clover Ring, Grungle the Metal Boxer!
There will be 6 rounds. Fighters will fight until those rounds are over or until a knockout has been made. With that..
LET THE FIGHTING COMMENCE!"

Grungle comes out of it's corner and looks ready to fight.


*BOXING*

Every Round of the fight fighters can choose to Guard, Attack, or Counter. Or chose to do some other type of act. Each round will then end with combatants both dealing and taking damage based on their attacks. An attack roll will also be made, with a critical resulting in knockout.

Joining as Silas Salter, Human Sorcerer (Neutral Evil)

After watching the dead mule hauled out of the fog, Silas had retreated to a quiet corner and sat down to think for a while. He did his best to ignore the voices of the others, and they must have wandered off somewhere else, because when he stands up again he realizes that he is alone.

"Where am I?" Silas mutters to himself. He looks around and listens.

Can Kalar cast a spell? It's part of his devious plan. Gameplay-wise, not in-game boxing rules-wise, that is.

Kalar can cast any spell on his spell list.

Righto then.

Kalar raises his holy symbol towards the warforged and orders it to fall.

Ardan, seeing no cue from his partner, simply decides to Counter and hope for the best...and to stay on his feet.
