A non-GM session; A Tipsy Mermaid

1457956505

Edited 1457956553
Status: Not Yet Sanctioned (GM not required) I thought we might all meet up for some RP over Discord. Assuming plans a session for this slot, Saturday between 20:00 and 22:00 UTC, we would meet at the Inn of the Tipsy Mermaid and join in some drinking and other merriment. One might even drink in real life should they be so inclined and legally allowed... The goal is to have some fun and to generally avoid serious topics but to perhaps enjoy some brawling, gambling and gossiping. If Kaar attends I'm sure there will be a drinking contest, or perhaps we can get Marokin to sing a song? Take this chance to do some RP! :] Just sign up here so we all know who's coming. If we don't reach 3-4 people then we'll cancel. Hopefully there will be a few more though :)
Sounds like fun will be there if I can
Sure, I'll be there

ahhh yah i gess id be up for that my name on discord is ilikestuff
Good stuff; we have at least 4 people!
If I could, I would like to sign up.
All are welcome Ernie! :)
would love to join but guess that I won't be free... WE evenings... huff...
WE*?
I shall be there!
Figured Sharleen wouldn't pass on a drink; I'll have Adolfo bring out a bottle of Skull Cracker!
WE=weekend
Ah... Bummer :/ It is the only night I can drink and thus why I suggested that specific one. I have work all days but Sundays so Sat night is only potential drinking one.
don't worry... just play some drinking songs and basically all my presence is there ;)
Also working I'm afraid but I wouldn't have wanted to fleece everyone gambling anyway  :)
Perhaps we could have an other non-GM session during the week then? See if you two can agree on a time you both could play and then post one.
I'm good until 22:00 on Friday and Saturday...
the way me and my other D&D buddies do it is mostley like 4-8 hour skype calls the go laght into the night its a grate time we just dick around play online games talk about D&D and  just dick around lots of fun 
whats the servers name? 
thank you 
If there room for my dragon ass in the bar I'd be happy to join. 
The more the merrier!
Excellent; I think we just got some potential brawlers together :] If we can get Sharleen drunk that is...
oh, will we have bets on the brawl?
Hah Cain has been waiting to stretch out his fists with some of his friends. He is particularaly excited about fighting Syvil.
And perhaps we could talk Adolpho into lending us some horses to have ourselves a race of some kind.
Bets are allowed unless the guards have smt to say about it... Syvil likely won't be brawling; not very good at that.
Ahm, we should ask Adolpho and his brother to join the brawling ;) Are we allowed to use btw our skills while we do the RP? ;p esp interesting in a brawl

The only thing I can say to that P.K is that PvP is not allowed. Now if the intent is not to "hurt"; in any interpretation of the word, then it should be okay? As an example note that using your skills to steal someone's gold would count as "hurting" them as would spelling them to do something against their will... The line is really iffy but it is probably best to keep things to friendly competition and nothing worse.

well if there is brawling I assume there would be the use of the combat system :) nonleathal dmg assured ofc and unarmed strikes according to the rules Melee Attacks (p. 195). The rule on unarmed strikes should read as follows: “Instead of using a weapon to make a melee weapon attack, you can use an unarmed strike: a punch, kick, head-butt, or similar forceful blow (none of which count as weapons). On a hit, an unarmed strike deals bludgeoning damage equal to 1 + your Strength modifier. You are proficient with your unarmed strikes.”
otherwise how would we decide on the outcome of bets ;) 
I would rule that non-lethal damage in a tavern brawl where all parties agree to enter is a friendly competition. Yes; you would largely use the combat rules but deal non-lethal damage. This excludes most spells, all ranged weapons & attacks.

A brawl sounds great fun; please try not to break up the Mermaid. And no; Adolfo will not be participating, as he'll win..............easily. Skill use is of course allowed.

P.K; there is no need to stick to fists (outside of RP reasons). Mechanically in 5E you can potentially do non-lethal with any melee instrument. Stephen; Does this mean that you could cast spells on someone against their will? The word skill; what does it encompass? I assume of course that anyone could use any ability they have so long as it is not used to PvP or alter the over all story too much.

Well you could; but according to the ancient 'laws' of brawling, any magic used or weapons are considered very bad form in such a situation.
Agreed; "RP reasons". Doesn't mean no one will try....
So no fire breath then ........ Shame }:) 
i kind of wish i was playing my warlock now shes a tone of fun to play drunk who dosent love getting turned purple 
"Warlock" and "Purple" do seem to come as a pair surprisingly often. A warlock that turns people purple though? Never heard of one of those before :]
thats prestigadashion for you 
so has this thing bin clead to go ahead   
Yup
I would think so. Stephen knows of it and has not objected. Though neither has he explicitly said for us to do it. Stephen Dove said: A brawl sounds great fun; please try not to break up the Mermaid. And no; Adolfo will not be participating, as he'll win..............easily. Skill use is of course allowed. Sure sounds like approval though :]
wonder if i can win a bunch of money 
Tonight's the night! Grab your brews and dice; it is time to carouse the town!
Just making sure my times are right its in 5 1/2 hours correct?
Yeah, I believe so. I'll probably be around earlier though if you want to RP that other thing...
Alright just finishing up some school things and I will be in there also need to go pick up the beverages for later.
All done ready to do that whenever you are

After a long a night and 5 failed CON saves Meren is unsure whether or not he is in fact alive or not. His memories of what came to pass are hazy at best. Visions of a dart throwing contest and him yelling at a horse are barely able to tell the entire story. With the little control he has over his muscles he drags himself from one bench to another, ever so slowly approaching the door of the Tipsy Mermaid. The air coming though the cracks from the outside smells sweet, or at least sweeter than in this wretched establishment. Using a javelin he picked up from the floor as a support Meren begins to staggeringly make his way of the Mermaid. The Great Steps before the entrance to the Mermaid prove too difficult of a challenge for him and he plunges face first into a puddle. A horse tied to a post next to the door sniffles him. "Bugger off!" , Meren says with a barely recognizable voice and waves his hand to shoo the annoyance away. Getting up requires almost all the strength Meren has left, after which he is able to just about lean against the nearest wall. He feels desperate and sick. Both feelings he had almost forgotten. So long it had been since he last had a night resembling this one. Indeed how long..? Time becomes an abstract notion to him for a few minutes(?), maybe hours (?). Meren dwells in the memories of his past, his previous life. How easy it was to live as an outlaw. Just taking what you wanted, partying and not worrying about the future. "Meren."   , a strict voice shatters his daydream. Reskin had finally arrived. It was time to go.
