After all the contestants finish there pies, the orc woman steps forward, grabs the queesy Ashurun by the wrist, and lifts her hand into the air. "Our winner is....this woman, who put down five pies! In second place is scruffy human boy, and last is the smart looking human." She pulls out a medal shaped like a meat pie, and puts it around Ashurun's neck. It's a medal of the meat pie.
OOC: Sorry for my absence yesterday. I had a crazy day. I was UMass Amherst for admitted student day, which is a 2 hour drive away. Then right when that ended, I had to come back home, and get to my school to catch the bus for a track meet.
@Ashurun
Not sure if the medal of the meat pie is included in DDB, so i'll take care of adding it to your character once I run through all the contests. It's a common magic item.

An elderly goblin in blue robes presides over a set of three tables. One table holds a wooden box, the second displays a glittering star map of the exandrian sky, and on the third rests a row of colored bottles. A banner hanging over the setup reads, "Test you with with me, against these riddles three."
Cost: 2sp per attempt per riddle
Rules are simple. When your character says they'll try, I give you the riddle and describe what's on the table. If you can't figure it out, you get to make an intelligence check.

Quill is immediately drawn to the table of the glittering sky and the many colored bottles,his head cocked on eye staring intently at each of the shiny items. He then hops back a step and appears to sit on his heels as he head cocks this way and that looking at Mov and Sophie, waiting for them to choose. While waiting he scans the crowd to see if any particular individual jumps out at him that just screams has money and is stupid about where they carry it.
OOC:Never mind! Real life always comes first. And thank you for the medal.
"(Ohhh~) I AM ASHURUN OF THUNDER MOUNTAIN! And I've never been defeated in an eating competition! (Ouch! Ouch!)" Despite the discomfort and pain in her stomach, Ashurun raises both arms triumphantly, displaying her medal to the audience, declaring victory. After the crowds begin to disperse, the barbarian whispers to the Orc lady. "Thanks, mum. Your pie is the best. By the way, where can I get some stomach medicine?"
@Drake
Then she turns to the wizard. "Drake, are you okay? Need me to carry you?"

The star map depicts moons and constellations visible in the Exandrian sky. It is accompanied by the following riddle:
Two birds sit in a speckled field,
One silver and calm, one scarlet with woe.
Nigh all year, the red one yields
To silver's illusions, mischief and shelt'ring glow.
To solve the riddle, you must identify who the birds are. I'll give one hit: it involves the start chart. Think back to the history of Exandria.

Mov puts his hands together and cracks his knuckles just a tidbit more loudly than any expect. Then with a smile in his voice he says, "Test you I shall, for a coward I am not. So to your three I say... *ahem*... let thy tangled words fly free!" The kobold then precedes to have a bit of a coughing fit, as ravaged lungs and throat let fly their complaints. But left to his own devices for a minute or so, he eventually recovers waving off any attempt at assistance. "So, uh.... yes, I'll give it a try." He says while passing over the two silvers to start before turning his attention on the wooden box.

Quill cocks his head left and right, going from looking at the riddle and then the star chart. He then squawks in excitement and turns to the elderly goblin, "Was thinking sun and moons, but that be 3 "birds", answer must be moons, Catha and Ruidus."

Quill hands over another 2 sp to the goblin as his eyes never leave the box and the dragon shapes. Again cocking his head left and right, he deftly sticks his head out as his beak pecks gently at the box again and the metal of the lock. He will then look around for any type of key that is around and if he does not see any, will utter, "Bronze correct key for lock."

Seeing her friend can at least walk by his own, Ashurun decides to move on to another event.
@Drake
“ So, what are we gonna do next?” She asks Drake. ” I am in no condition to swim. I guess you are too. Maybe we should go to a riddle competition. If we can catch our bard, she might know some kind of mojo to make us feel better.”
OOC: Why don't you go meet Emeraude at the arm wrestling. There is a half orc woman involved. Emeraude doesn't think she's attractive, but he doesn't think anyone is attractive.

(OOC: Just held off waiting to resolve Mov's riddle situation, though looks as if Quill sort of beat ihm to the punch? Not sure, but might have to change plans once I'm a bit more alert after weaking up in a few hours.)

Drake gave a slight smile at Asha’s antics and a reassuring nod.”I’ll be alright.” He told her.

Table one riddle:
Quill needs to pay another 2sp for this table.
The box has a lock resembling a dragon, probably bronze.

The elderly goblin looks at the kenku, impressed. "We have ourselves a riddler! If you get the last one in one try, you win. Would you like to try?"
