Industrygothica's "Those Left Behind" [IC]

Jemal

Adventurer
Rokelsh doesn't like the thought of going down on purpose, but this mockery of a fight, and the preceeding weeks, have worn him thin. This drunken dwarf is the closest thing to an honourable warrior he's seen in weeks. With a quiet sigh and a loud roar, he hurls himself at the Dwarf, tripping over him and falling hard (Rokelsh won't try to slow his fall, taking some damage from the fall to make it look more authentic).

[sblock=ooc]
Bluff check=1d20-1. Hoping for a bonus due to the hard fall.

Rokelsh dives over the dwarf and slams himself into the back of the cage. For a moment he sees stars, but pulls himself back to his feet. Sensing the the crowd is satiated, at least for the time being, he eyes the dwarf and hopes to be able to continue this farce long enough to figure out how to get out of here.

Sense motive for the crowd: 18-5 circumstance=13
Rokelsh aid another atempt: 11-1+2 circumstance=12 (pass, 2 points of non-lethal damage for the attempt)
Rogash Bluff attempt: 6+5+2=13

13 Rokelsh 5/37:
6 Rogash 6/39:

Friadoc will watch Vardi work for a bit, seeing if he notices anything that might give him an idea about what keeps her here. If he doesn't notice anything, once he sees an opening, he'll catch up with her again for some chit-chat.

Friadoc watches Vardi work. She is very efficient, albeit somewhat stand-offish. She doesn't engage in friendly conversation with many, if any of the patrons, and only makes eye contact when she has to.

You notice a few furtive glances towards Grunk, who seems to be keeping a close eye on her.

Rokelsh looks around, noting where the cage exits are, as he shakes his head from the impact. Turning, he charges again at the dwarf, this time trying to hit the dwarf and take them both to the ground (tackle). While they're close, he asks "When do these end?" in a quite growl.

"Pretty lady, don't you think?" says Friadoc to Grunk, after he makes his way over near him. "For a human, of course."

Not only will Friadoc try to get a read off of Grunk by asking him about Vardi, but he'll also try and gauge her reaction, too.

OOC

Sense Motives and Gather information, obviously.
 

Scotley

Hero
Rogash

Rogash goes down with a thump under the bigger man. "One of us has to get knocked out, they like to see blood, ram me into the bars," he says this softly and then as he tries to wriggle free he shouts, "Get off me you big oaf! I'll tear your head off human!" He gets up and circles as if planning his next attack.

Friadoc makes his way over to Grunk, standing stoically against the wall with his arms folded across his chest. Grunk grins weakly as the halfling speaks, but offers nothing to the conversation. Friadoc thinks the half-orc seems bored, and while he may not want to be here either, he is here of his own choice. Of course, a man that big, who'd be able to stop him if he wanted to leave, he think.

Friadoc watches Vardi, who seems him talking, or trying to talk to Grunk. She rolls her eyes and shakes her head almost imperceptively, and continues serving drinks to the drunken crowd.

oO Definately a talker Oo thinks Friadoc with a shrug as he nods towards Grunk before heading off through the crowd, again.

If he cannot find anything useful, in the way towards information about Vardi, he'll make his way over towards her again.

As Friadoc makes his way over to the barmaid, his eyes pass over the battle in the cage for just a moment, and does a doubletake.

Well, something's not right about that, he thinks as he studies the battle. Then it comes to him, and the words escape his lips in a whisper, "They're making a show of it!"
