However, at the mention of white dragons, one of the [I]actual [/I]drunks turns around, trying to get Rudolf's attention, though the mercenary shrugs the man off.

[IMG align="left" width="254px"]https://storage.prompt-hunt.workers.dev/clhg5hbu6000nmh08480do91w_1[/IMG]Rudolf draws a White Dragon (4), giving him an allied flight of evil dragons.

[B]"I will remember that Everfrost fairy!" [/B]He taps his new Bahamut card with pride. Each man antes up the silver equal to the strength of his card, bringing the pot to a soaring 164 silver pieces. But now the special powers of each dragon must be accounted for... Evil dragon cards steal half their strength (rounded up) from the pot. Thus, Rudolf steals 2, Arnholt steals 3, Ottar also steals 3, and Thidrik steals 2 (replacement cards not affecting the the pot). Next, players with good dragons each choose one player with evil dragons in their flight to attack – in this final round only Mak has a gold dragon 7 (OOC: [USER=6855204]@tglassy[/USER] choose a player who must give 4 silvers to the pot). The pot currently rests at 154 silver pieces. Then, comes the carnage... [GM]I'll post the attacks from all the Bahamuts in a second post. This one was a lot of rolls!
