"Wha-what!? Why you little -- Ohhhhh! THAT'S IT! No more miss nice!" Marmaduke rolls up her sleeves, toss aside her glasses, then pops her knuckles. "No one messes with me work!" She says as she stomps her way over, summoning and flinging magical daggers.
Marmaduke huffs, shakes her head, and then quickly making sure Banjo Man's fall hadn't smudged any papers. Depending on the damage done, she might not be too gentle about putting old combat medic training to work stabilizing the poor fellow.
But either way, once she's done she closes the door, strips Banjo Man to his skivvies (pocketing his money for good measure), and then ties him up in hempen rope.
"By the nine... Alright! Let's get this over with." She mutters as she starts half-carrying and half-dragging Banjo Man to the common room. Once there, she calls over one of the employees (by race, not name) over that looked decently strongly. Which probably meant Maravax.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Having left the establishment to deal with Banjo Man, Marmaduke returns to her room long enough to get things sorted again. When next she leaves, it is to do the rounds and have the odds relayed to the Lounge. All in a much less kinder fashion than usual...
When folk go to seek out the 'Purple Worm' and vice versa, she apologizes for the delay. In an effort to make up for it however, bets will remain open until the conditions for 1st to Fall section have been met. Variable betting will also remain in place, as well as the minimum stake being at least 5 gp.
S/N: For this match, bets will remain open until someone falls. A gambler can bet on multiple categories, but only once per. And to clarify, methods of incapacitation that do not involve a takedown (ie. Competitor being reduced to 0 hp) only qualifies as a 1st to fall IF said competitor REMAINS incapacitated until the match ends. If multiple competitors are rendered incapacitated at the same time via the above method, and remain that way until the end of the match, the stake is considered a loss. In such an event, all proceeds is divided and funneled back into the arena to support future matches (or so she says at least).
With that, All bets are FINAL.
Stakes/Vig(commission): 5gp Min Vig: 10% of stake(s)
First to Fall: 5 to 1: Jessica Jones 4 to 1: Iron Rothander 2 to 1: Winsome Churchbot 3 to 1: Calgin the "Beast"
Winning Team:
3 to 1: Church and Jessica 1 to 3: Rothander and Calgin

"WHAT!?" Dr. Marmaduke yells after practically ripping the door of its hinges. "Oh great! Just great! Thank you! Thank you for completing this otherwise shitty evening! Hold on!" She quickly holds up a hand. "Let me guess! You want this right!?" She pulls the banjo off from the side and holds it up, but not immediately within reach.

Congrats, you've stolen Banjo Man's overalls and nonexistent money.
But by stealing Banjo Man's banjo
You've just sentenced yourself to death.
Once Banjo Man regains consciousness, he retrieves his spare hat and set of overalls from his office/broom closet
