[QUOTE="Two-Gun Kid, post: 2062493, member: 28887"] As the steady drizzle of rain began to fall, Toskar propped open the door of the Tipped Tankard and placed his stool under the overhang in front of the bar. Looking around at sparse traffic on the street, Toskar felt that besides the regulars who had already claimed their stools next to the scarred and pitted wood bar, business was going to be light today. [i]'And light business means only a few coppers for me work...'[/i] Leaning back on the stool and resting his back against the wall, Toskar knew that he shouldn't complain about his work. The Tankard wasn't the best bar in Cauldron, far from it, but after he had "talked" to the few trouble makers who had formerly visited his workplace, the Tankard was possibly the easiest to work at. Meals, room and a few coppers, sometimes a silver if the place had a bard for the night, for sitting on his stool and making his rounds inside from time to time wasn't a bad deal all in all. [i]'Although me da would shave his beard if he knew what I was doing...'[/i] Forcing his thoughts away from that path, Toskar was turning his head to look back inside the bar when a muffled scream, registered in his mind. Standing up quickly and grabbing his club from beside the stool, Toskar looked all around trying to get an idea of where the scream came from. A few seconds later, Toskar's searching was rewarded as he saw a bald dwarf running down a side alley near the bar, the dwarf's axe drawn and ready for use. Stepping inside for a second, Toskar called out to the barkeep Shamus. [color=blue]"Be right back...trouble in the alley..."[/color] Heading to the alley where he saw the dwarf enter, Toskar wondered what was going on and how much it would affect the crowd tonight.
