[OOC] House Millithor in City of the Spider Queen

[Brother Shatterstone]

If she and Ki'Willis made a deal that Yyssiriryl could buy back the troll for a reasonable prize and Yyssiriryl bet a substantial amount against her own champion against profitable odds she would;

Be dead... If Laral saw that someone had bet that much money on there on champion to lose he knows something is or was up.


Don't leave without me now...


Edit: darn spell checker.

I'm not sure how we benefit. Sure, we get the temporary services of Lady Y and her champion, but we'd be getting that anyway. Sure, we'd be getting money from Lady Y (theoretically), but I don't know that it'd be worth it. How much is she willing to pay? Of course, this is all kind of putting the cart before the horse--who knows what the repercussions of Dariel's fight will be?

The odds will at the very least triple the amount we're betting. We'd earn 80'000 gps on the bet alone (supposing we bet 40k), perhaps the double of that, plus whatever Yy pays us to buy back the troll from her own winnings (and she can obviously bet a lot more than we can). That would buy us a lot of stuff. The odds in the Troll_Dwarf fight were 20-1, if anything my estimates are very conservative.
We wouldn't be violating the rules of the arena, (there are no rules in the arena, except that outside interference is generally discouraged). Laral would only stike against Yyssiriryl if it would be politically expedient for him to do so. Perhaps he could be deterred, at least until the fall of Menzoberranzan becomes widely known.

Do you really think it's a bad idea?

 

[Seonaid]

No, I don't think it's a bad idea. I'm concerned, and think we need to see how Dariel's fight goes (and how the rabble reacts), so I'm voicing objections, but it's not a bad idea.

. Good. Of course there is reason to be concerned. It's a risk, but one cannot win without taking risks, nor is one as likely to be lynched . I'm just considering our possible future actions, based on probable future events. Nothing is set in stone, and it all depends on how its recieved by the group in general.

 

[Endur]

Yes, I forgot about the haste. I will edit the posts for the 3rd attack. Dariel missed on the third attack and none of the other attacks have the outcome changed by a +1, so its not a big deal.

EDIT: Since there's Haste effect on Dariel, shouldn't he had three attacks?

 

[Endur]

Hey, you havn't even talked to my troll or gotten to know him yet. How do you know he's not trustworthy?

Just because you started this adventure fleeing for your life from a wartroll (or six), are you going to hold that against every troll you meet from now on?

"Never trust a troll."

"Never trust a troll."

Well yeah, but it might have been a big deal, so I had to try.
