Re: Briarbeard Tavern (Vaul) - II
Once Valorei finishes his 7th mug he looks over Kennit, giving a thumbs up and a very wide smile of his own, his face blushed and his eyes a bit glossy, "I may beesh an Elf! But a'm not out yet!" his words slurring. He once again refocuses on the serious task at hand, his goal of not being the first one out already met, now he only seeks to see how far he can go!

Varas watches Orrin with amusement, to the point that he chokes on his beer.
Leisurely drink (10) [1d20-2] = 18-2 = 16, added minutes [1d3] = 1
Extra delay:
Delay for failed check [1d3] = 3
He can't keep the ale out of his lungs, and begins coughing heavily:
Save vs non magical poison (14) [1d20] = 5
CON adj:
CON reduction [1d3] = 3
C'mon man

Re: Briarbeard Tavern (Vaul) - II
Dorvar, realizing he is falling way behind, makes a tactical error. In an attempt to down his ale in one gulp, he accidentally inhales some of it.
Chug (Con 16): [1d20+5] = 14+5 = 19
Delay Time: [1d3] = 2
Poison Save (8): [1d20] = 16

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.

Sitting on his barstool, Thistlebottom drums out a bit of rhythm on the bartop and whistles to himself. His forehead is furrowed in concentration and he is evidently deep in thought.

Seeing the antics of the others, martins decides to try a stunt of his own. "Hey everyone! Watch this! he cries as he climbs atop a barstool. He carefully balances one full mug of beer on his head and then quickly chugs another. Swapping the empty glass for the full one he starts to chug it also. Unfortunately as he reaches the bottom of the second mug of ale he tries to swallow too quickly and starts to cough and sputter. He totters on the shaking stool and for a few seconds it looks as if he might regain his balance, but unfortunately the previous 5 beers have finally caught up to him. With a short yelp he topples from the stool and crashes to the floor.
"Guessh I'm more thought than I drunk I was," he slurrs slightly as he picks himself up.
quick drink (CON 12) = [1d20+2] = 8+2 = 10
quick drink (CON 12) = [1d20+2] = 20+2 = 22 DOH! fail!

Dorvar takes a couple mugs and slows down a bit, drinking the first one normally.
Normal Drink (Con 16): [1d20] = 16
Delay Time: [1d3] = 2
Bouyed by that success, he drinks another one, a little more quickly this time. Bad idea.

Kennit rubs his weary eyes trying to concentrate while watching Martin's antics. When the priest falls, he laughs as loudly as anyone. He moves from his stool to help the priest up, but really accomplishes very little in the way of help, being overcome by his fit of laughter.

Val laughs with everyone, the entire tavern now just sitting and watching the rather large group of competitors getting drunker and drunker. at the taunt from Varas to Dorvar Val also decides to speak out, "Martinsh may beesh a gud.. uhm... drinker! But this elf ish shtill in it!"
Val unfortunately decides against doing some kind of trick, choosing that him starting off the competition with that amazing chug can be his moment.

Re: Briarbeard Tavern (Vaul) - II
Martin rolled a 20 on his CON check, which gives him double the delay time from that failure starting with the next round. It his him very hard all of a sudden and his body is telling him to back off or there will be trouble!

After his laughing fit, it's back to work for Kennit. But he cannot control his own mirth. He sputters, chortles, and chokes throughout the whole drink.
CON Check (15): [1d20] = 18
Delay Time: [3d3] = 5
Save vs. poison (8): [1d20] = 4
CON Loss: [1d3] = 1
The competition is quickly becoming a one man dwarf race.

Varas kicks it up to a normal pace, which seems to agree with him.

Still whistling, Halfred unbuckles the flap on his backpack and draws a simple if sturdy-looking fiddle. He plucks at one of the strings experimentally, turning one of the pegs on the neck slightly and plucking the string again.
The halfling looks over at the competitors and grins as he continues to tune his fiddle. "You boys will be floating home, I reckon."

Orrin suddenly stands up, laughs out loud for no obvious reason and starts beating his chest with his fists. Looking around at the startled faces staring at him, he explains.
"Dwarven drinking ritual. Every 10 ales or so, you gotta shake out the cobwebs a little."
The twinkle in his eye leads some in the bar to wonder if he's being completely truthful. Or if he's just finally getting a little lacquered.

Yeah, with 2d3 extra time it's no longer safe for Varas to even consider a leisurely drink anymore...AleBelly wrote:Varas kicks it up to a normal pace, which seems to agree with him.
