Message: <blockquote data-quote="Imaculata" data-source="post: 6880527" data-attributes="member: 6801286">I had a religious festival in my campaign a while back, which was dedicated to The Lady of the Waves, an ocean deity. Among the various religious activities, there was also plenty of drinking. The players took part in a particular funny drinking game in which two contestants run between two wooden poles in the ground (while making a circle around each one), while carrying two buckets filled with water around their neck. Each time they run a circle around one of the poles, they must drink from the glass that the 'referee' hands them. The glasses are picked randomly from a table full of various liquors. If they pass out, or fail to maintain their balance and spill the buckets, they lose (and get very wet in the process).The way this works, is that I have a list of various drinks, each with its own fortitude save (or constitution save). Some drinks are a mixed drink, meaning they use the highest DC of the two drinks plus one. Some glasses may also contain just water, or dishwater. Every time the players consume a drink, the overall constitution/fortitude DC of all drinks is increased by 1, and so is the DC of their balance check. Whenever they run from one pole to the next, they must roll a balance check, or spill the buckets and fall flat on their face.Eventually they are going to fail that check. But all they need to do is outlast their opponent. The audience is allowed to interfere of course, by trying to trip the contestants or push them.</blockquote>
