“I would be a worthy bet and surly bring you much money”

“But next match, we will fight together”

“So Baral? How did you get into all this adventure and fighting thing? What’s your story?”

“I’ve actually been doing this kind of thing for a while, but fighting bandits and goblins began to get boring. I came to this coliseum looking for a challenge.” Baral smirks. “I think I found one.”

“I remember my first fight. My monastery was under attack and I was using the outhouse. I got back and all the masters were dead and all the students, except for me, were taken hostage for a price of millions of platinum from the town. I climbed the side of the monastery and systematically took out every assailant and took back the monastery. One of the captors had a pamphlet for this place on him and I made my way here!” He chuckles and takes another big swig of his beer and then walks behind the bar looking for another 

Quote from RazorDawn89 >>

Baral sees the new person, Kopolony, enter the room. He waves and comes over.

"Another wizard? A pleasure to meet you." He picks up an ale as well. "Though you say you try to stay out of harm's way, I have a different approach to combat." He nudges the rapier on his hip. 

 Sha'kar overhears the conversation between the two wizards and wanders over with a chuckle.  "I'm with you," he tells Baral.  "I much prefer to be right in the thick of things."  He pats the rapier hanging at his own hip.

(Also a wizard)

You see an Aarakocra swoop down towards the ground in front of you. "Ah, it's good to see another monk again." he says as he looks at Gin Rummy. "The name is Lumimar. Pleasure to meet you."

(You’re actually not just both wizards—you’re both eladrin bladesingers.)

(@LST: Could be crazier. We could also have two Moon Druids and two Scorcadins.)

“A fellow monk!!! Where did you train?”

(Oh god.  Please no.)

(Exploiting Backstories! Yay!)

(@LST: I almost did it myself. But then I realized I didn't need to for the item I wanted for my build. Unfortunately as a consequence it feels, I have been the target of unmitagatable damage every. single. match. XD)

Gin rummy walks over to the other bladsinger and says 

“are you the kind of person that looks scary but can’t actually wield the weapons he has or can you do stuff with the weapons you got?”

he’s asking to spar

A heavily armored half-elf is watching all this take place, with an amused smile on his face.

"I’ll spar with you, little one.  If you’re not afraid of losing."

"I was raised and trained by the Monastery of the Flowing Wind, which is mainly made up by people like me. What of you?"

”I was in the Monastery of the Solar Sky in greenest! My mentor was an aarakocra like you!”

then he turns to the elf and says

”Little one! I’ll have you know Im the tallest of my family! I think you will be the one loosing my good, very tall friend.”

Nock chuckles lazily, deflecting the punch with a raised hand.  He rises to his full height, towering over the halfling, and slowly pulls his maul off of his back.  He gestures again (bonus action), and a glimmering aura appears around him.  He then suddenly charges forward, swinging his maul around with brutal speed and power.

Attack: 9 Damage: 26

Nock stares down at his fallen opponent, looking faintly disappointed.

"Whoops.  That was fast."

He shrugs, and heals Gin Rummy for 5 hp with lay on hands.
