(OOC: Hmm... In the future, I think I might use decimals. As those are a bit more straight forward)
For those that bet:
1st to Fall: Caligan
As no PC placed a bet on this, no one won... except the coliseum and NPCs.
Overall Victory: Team Detecti -- I mean, Jessica and Church. The following can add this to their funds:
Keygella: 123gp (This included the stake return and 10gp vig reduction. It would've been 40gp in total, but the reason will be explained through rp after this post (if Keygella's player is amicable to it)).
Shmitty: 666(*squints*… That couldn't have been on purpose) plus 6 silvers and 7 coppers. As the original bettor retired before the results and left the funds to Marmaduke. These winnings were split between MD and Baryk for 333 gp, plus 3 sp.
(OOC: And I think that about covers it, me thinks.)

Scarab ponders on this new assault upon his ears. "I must admit, I have never heard music of this style before. I believe I have much to learn from you!"

In between songs, Swigg says to Scarab, "Meh, I kinda just doodle it ya know?"
Swigg plays until he has enough coin for a few rounds and he leaves his makeshift stage, a box, and heads inside the Glory. He scans the room for friendly faces, (Describe yourself if you want to be seen), and walks up to the bartender who was having a conversation with...an undead, ok? Being a Goblin, Swigg anticipates a little antagonism on account of the reputation of his brethren and his honest and innate desire to be sneaky and stuff, but to see an undead here just chillin and no pitchforks? This place is dope.
With a smile on his face, Swigg climbs a nearby stool, tower, and asks the bartender "My man, can I get a Summer Beer?"
He puts a silver coin down on the table and places a copper coin next to it also saying...almost to himself, almost like a prayer, "A copper to The Lady returns tenfold in gold..."
Also at the bar is an enormous half-orc with slightly pointed ears, clad in plate armor. The stool he’s sitting on currently appears to be straining quite mightily.
He is currently engrossed in painstakingly copying down something onto a scroll. You get the impression he isn't used to such rigorous mental activity.
Currently playing in: Quest for the Shunned City, Coliseum of Conquest, DragonDenn's Dragonlords, Shipwrecked on Fugue, Tomb of Annihilation, Razor's Lost Mine of Phandelver, The Lost Kenku & One Grung Above
Currently DMing: Princes of the Apocalypse, Out of the Abyss, Coliseum of Conquest—The Arena (Sometimes)
Swigg sees the half orc and decides not to engage, best leave a man at hard work. He raises his eyebrow at the cost of a summer beer in these parts and says to Marvarax, "Thats a pretty steep price for lemon water." Swigg places another silver coin on the bar. "What do people do around here for money?"
After everything is said and done, Marmaduke is practically surrounded by papers in a booth at the glory the following morning. She missed Toren last night, having been in a rush to get things done. The business with Keygella was also put off for the morning. But during the short exchange, she did hint at a possible job for her that the goliath "might" be interested, though it did intel legwork and possibly working with kids...
ANYWAYS!
She peeks past her fortress every once in a while to check out the locals. As her usual purple robes with its blue flame-like designs rest beside her, what simple clothing remain could do little to obscure the fact that her mahogany skin and red-hair marked her as a gold dwarf. Or the fact that she had some blue dragon blood in her judging by the scales covering most of an arm and neck, as well as the wedge shaped horn sprouting from her forehead.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"My bad man. Where I come summer beer is another word for lemon water. I'm a long ways from home." Swigg sucks his pointy teeth. "I take it the arena is the place where the cheering is coming from? I guess I'll sign up then. Sounds like a hell of a stage."
Swigg eyes Marmaduke from across the room and hes going to give her a flirty goblinoid wink performance4
(OMG I am in love with this character's performance rolls!)

Swigg, some of the folks watching your performance start to mosh.

Zevryl seeks out Banjo Man.

Considering that he's sitting in a chair at the most popular bar in the city, finding him isn't hard.

(Zevryl is literally staring right at him since he's the bartender)
"So, about the job ye had fer a few o' us yesterday, with the retrievin' yer ship an' whatnot. That still a thing that's happenin'?"
"Ignorance is bliss, and you look absolutely miserable."
"Indeed it is. The expedition will begin soon, but right now I own a detective agency. I'm currently on the trail of a murderer."
Walton Gibson - Human Cleric, Level 1
"Oh yeah, I heard you screamin' at the top o' yer lungs in the Glory. You got any leads yet?"
