You can always find a place to FLEX ON WEAKLINGS in any place that features combat for entertainment — perhaps a gladiatorial arena or secret pit fighting club. At such a place, you receive free lodging and food of a modest or comfortable standard (depending on the quality of the establishment), as long as you perform each night. In addition, your performance makes you something of a local figure. When strangers recognize you in a GYM where you have performed, they typically take a liking to you, though there is a DC15 check to not be off-putting to the typical townsfolk.
