When I was little, my grandmother would always tell me stories of her travels. I was mesmerized by her tales of dungeons, monsters, and all of the strange folk she met. Her stories filled my dreams with magic and spelndor night after night. Now that I am finally old enough, I seek to find tales of my own to tell the generations to come, to make my own place withing the pages of the history books. I will become a great adventurer, just like my grandmother was, and reclaim the glory that my family once had. There's just one problem...

I don't really see a reason to go beat up the other two, plus, I'm eager to get to town. Its still morning, so I should be able to get there by sunset.

After several hours, I arrive at May's Hope. It looks like I'm just in time, too. They should be closing the gate for the night soon. Where should I go first? I'm not terribly accustomed to any town larger than my village.

Hrrm...One thing you might wanna do is find an inn. Another place, might be finding someone who could possibly identify those flasks you found.

Do you have any cash on you? See if they have an apothecary.

Yeah finding the inn would probably be best at this point. I'd imagine you're fairly tired after several hours of walking. Ask a city guard if need be. If you're not super exhausted, you could probably make a trip to the apothecary, as well, to get those flasks appraised. I would hold off on any extraneous shopping until tomorrow.
>>
No. 537260 ID: 41690e

An affordable place to eat and/or sleep would be nice, yeah.

Any place you could go to get the potions identified is probably closing for the night. We've have to go looking for that tomorrow.

After that, tavern. You can always count on overhearing something at a tavern, and its generally agreed its where traveling adventurers go for leads so you might even get approached on your own.
>>
No. 537294 ID: 9ddf68

find somewhere that will give you a room for the night and then if you still have time left in the day see if you can't find someone to tell you what's in the flask you found.

If you are new to the city there should be a on-the-ground gate guard who's used to giving people directions.

He should probably look moderately bored and standing to one side. Ask him about the stuff mentioned above.

The inn isn't very hard to find, as its right by the main gate. No doubt to draw in weary travelers like me. The place isn't terribly crowded, as an assortment of patrons litter the room. A lone woman is working the bar.

Sounds like a decent idea. I'm sure I have more than enough money for tonight.

And I don't think hitting on her will be an issue. She's not exactly my type.

>share a room, buy a drink
Uh, no thanks.

Be polite, don't be rude or humiliate him, initially. We don't want to draw a reaction out of him, or put him in a situation where he's going to act out to save face or his pride. Of course, if he pushes it, there's nothing wrong with making a fool of him.

Twirl out of the seat (preferably in the direction away from our buddy here), duck down, pull out your blade, and shove it square into his flank. He's a big guy so hopefully he has slow reflexes to match.

Welp, no way to get out of this without trouble, now.

Turn your bar-stool to face him, with the expression he's getting what he wants.

Then deploy your thunder-thighs and knee him in the groin as hard as you can.

Then get up push him away, and ready your weapon, because his jerk friends are probably going to come after you.
>>
No. 537807 ID: 9ddf68

you still got your sword on you? If so look towards the guy and give you a smile and say something like "well when you put it that way" then hit him as hard as you can in the nose with the pommel of your sword and then point the blade right at his crotch and say something like "but I tend to play rough"

Keep an eye out incase he wasn't bluffing about his friends though so one doesn't sucker punch your or something when your focusing on big and dumb here.
>>
No. 537808 ID: e31ca1

DON'T engage! try and twist away from him, the bartender should help you out if she doesn't want a fight to break out. Hopefully she's not new. Especially don't draw your sword, that will get you in trouble.
>>
No. 537815 ID: 5fd94e

If you can slip out of his grasp and move away that will be your best option, if you can't slip out then go for a blow to the groin however that is less advisable as it will leave him very pissed off. Whatever you do keep your hand away from your sword, we don't want him to break your arm or something in disarming you.

Attack the balls

No. 537846 ID: bc8d67

Forget trying to pull any physical attack while that big gorilla has his mitt on your shoulder. He'll feel your attack coming and slam you into the bar. You're gonna have to get him to let go before even thinking of doing anything else, so play along until he releases you.

Give the bartender the most intense "help me" look you can muster while telling him you'll reconsider if he buys you any drink you want; Preferably many more than one.

If he goes along, order the largest, strongest, and spiciest drink you and the bartender can think up. You're shooting for strong, cheap whiskey combined with Tabasco and a pureed hot pepper. The more capsaicin, the better, because what you're making is a weapon, not a drink.

Once you have your glass of liquid weapon in hand, make a show of slowly raising it to your lips so the brute is watching, then splash it into his eyes with a flick of the wrist, vault the bar, and run for it.

As appealing as it sounds, I don't want to draw on him yet. Things may be ugly, but I don't want to kill anyone if I don't have to. And kicking him... there seems pretty, well, low. But you're right. I can't just let him get away wit hthis.

Though a little wit could help me greatly in this situation. And my thighs aren't that big... shut up...

"You sure know how to change a girl's mind, sir. You get us a couple of drinks, and I'm allll yours."

>Heh, yeah, that's more like it! Barkeep! Two orders of whiskey, pronto!

He takes his hand off my shoulder to order the drinks. Damn bad move on his part.

>bar fight!
Well, yeah.

Let's try to make this short. No playing fair. Just pick a chair or stool or something and slam it over his head, hard before he gets up. Knock him out, and then try to intimidate his friends into backing off.

Don't draw your sword until it's necessary, or they bring out edged weapons. No need to get in trouble with the town guard for murdering these guys without cause.

No. 537896 ID: 9ddf68

alright then the first rule of bar fights is there are no rules so get ready to fight dirty. also real quick before this gets to far into the fight tell the bartender to put all damages that may or may not happen on the big guy's tab.

Please remember to pick the most durable looking chair!

The barkeep will bill you for anything you break!

That being said, are there any obvious off-duty guards around who might try to make things get legal?
Where are his 'boyz', they might be sneaking up on you!
Does the bartender appear to care about any of this?
Is there an open window or door nearby that you could escape through?

This is gonna be fun. Adventures like this happen a lot, and honestly barfights almost always make for a great story to tell the kids.
Lets teach this sick shithead some manners. See if you can find a weapon of some sort, as strong as those legs of yers are I dont think we can take on a meat wall like this guy and two others without getting creative.
No lethality though, we dont want to kill anyone here. Just teach them not to be scuzzballs.

Try to position yourself between the charging guy and his friends. When he gets close enough, dodge out of the way. Hopefully his balance/reaction time will be dulled enough after being hit with the stool to keep going. After the fight, be sure to buy a drink for the girl to make up for the one you spilled. She looks very 'adventure-y' and I think it's be best to be on her good side.
>>
No. 540828 ID: 07e3a8

>The girl who was seated there yelps in surprise, and possibly annoeyd that her dring was spilled.
Remember to apologize to her for that, after the fight. Maybe buy her a replacement. No need to pointlessly make enemies of bystanders. We'll probably owe the barkeep / innkeeper an apology too.

...I mean, we already pointlessly made this doof, but sort of submitting, there wasn't much of a way around that. We tried the soft approach.

>it looks like he's readying himself for a final charge
Hmm. Well, you look faster and nimbler than this uncoordinated drunken brute. Best way around a charge is to use his power and momentum against him.

Sidestep or dodge, and slam the barstool into the back of his leg or head, directing him into something solid at full speed. Make his charge a thunderous crash.
>>
No. 540829 ID: 9ddf68

well I don't see a reason to start fighting fair now of all times so grab one of the glasses of the bar (try to go for an empty one if you can) and throw it at his face. the Idea here is to distracted him so you can dodge is feeble attempt to rush you and trip him up. Maybe get a nut shot in if you can.

Also once you're done with the fight, tell the bartender to put all the damages on the perv's tab.
>>
No. 540842 ID: 4f1dac

Why are you letting him get up? Push him back down, drunks have terrible balance so it should be easy.
There's no need to add to our damage bill, and throwing a glass could be accidentally lethal so don't do something that stupid.
