Having calmed himself from his previous outburst, Orrin plants a fresh ale in front of both himself and Dorvar, leaning over to whisper in the dwarf's ear.

"Come on cousin, drink up. Don't embarass us in front of our friends!"

He hoists his tankard and drains it:

Kennit raises a mug in memory of the lost thief he never knew, but continues to bide his time. He gives Martin an approving nod. This man has superhuman control over how his body handles alcohol.

Martin takes his time with his fifth mug of beer. As he gets close to the bottom of the mug, he starts to get a pained look on his face. As a few people lean in, thinking the cleric's previous drinks have finally caught up to him, he lets out an emormous belch. "Oh, that is so much better", he proclaims with a grin. "Plenty of room for more now."

Val eyes Martin, the cleric quickly catching up to the elf with a rather astounding ability. To Val's surprise the man doesn't even look winded.

Val grabs a cup and decides to slow his pace down, not wanting to drink himself out of the competition.

Varas tips back another, trying not to be intimidated by the dwarves and the cleric. He knows his strength isn't chugging, so he continues to sip at a leisurely pace. His fifth goes down almost as easily as his first with minutes to spare.

7 CON? I'm thinking Val is about to pass out with that kind of craziness... I am however glad to state that for an elf he certainly held his own!

A somewhat more sober halfling pushes open the door, a sturdy-looking fiddle in his arms. He sits down at the bar and begins testing out rhymes for "Harrowing".

One hour in and it's time to move in to your comfort zone. Kennit takes a nice leisurely drink from his next mug.

Val did tremendously well. Five drinks in, he was still the quickest, if not the soberest.
EDIT: Oops, actually Orrin was quicker to five drinks by one minute. Val did well all the same.

Orrin signals for another. He looks relaxed. And slightly glassy-eyed.

Varas gets up to relieve himself. He comes back smiling. On the way back to his seat, he gives Olympia a huge hug. He sits down to sip another.

Leisurely drink (10) [1d20-2] = 10-2 = 8, added minutes [1d3] = 3

He finds this pace suits him if he keeps the ale out of his lungs.

He looks over at Martin. "You glorious bastard! The drinks have to catch up to you at some point..."

Val attempts to drink another mug of beer, trying to drink normally.

Val Drinking Normal CON(7): [1d20] = 11
Delay Time: [3d3] = 8
Valorei Save VS Poison: [1d20] = 17

I'm thinking Val wont be lasting another round or two... he put up a good fight but it seems that an elf just isn't made for such things... maybe next time we can have a wine drinking contest!

"We shall see, friend. The day is still young."
He raises a mug in Martin's direction with a nod, and drains this one just a tad quicker than the last.

Orrin gives Martin a sidelong glance. He's curious about something.

"Martin! Perchance you've got a grandma or great auntie that's kinda short? I'm thinking you've got a little Dwarven blood in ye."

He hoists another tankard. It's starting to feel a little like work, at this point.

Kennit only drinks his in 6 minutes due to the natural 1 on his CON test.

The rules will change slightly for someone when they get to ten drinks. Looks like that will be soon for Orrin, as he's currently averaging below 9 minutes per drink...

Kennit gives Valorie the thumbs up. "Take it slow. You'll make it."
Unfortunately, he does not follow his own advice. Tipping the mug way back and coughing when he over-consumes.

Felt like we were pressing our luck with a long series of low rolls. I should have saved all those high rolls for Dorvar.

Methinks Ghrym is about to break out the hard stuff...

Orrin thinks the atmosphere has gotten a bit too serious as the real drinkers have grimly settled in for a long, hard fight. The lightweights have bowed out and it's gotten quiet as people slowly drink themselves into oblivion. He decides to liven things up a little.

"Hey, check this out!"

Somehow he manages to upend himself and hook his stubby legs on the bar, hanging upside down with his hair brushing the ale-sodden floor. He lifts the tankard to his lips and drinks the entire pint whilst hanging there.
