As we are finishing up our prep “We do have an important piece of business to take care of. Two things really. One. I won’t be ******* any of you. It leads to too much drama.“ Giving a pointed look at Mateu with his two ready halflings “Anyway I’m sure none of you are in desperate need in that arena. And two. What do we call ourselves? I assume you all have a group name?”
Mateu rolled his eyed at this but said nothing as the newcomer to their little group knew nothing of his past. While he might fool around he was not fond of sleepong around due to his own conception from his somcalled father doing just that. "Fair enough. We can agree that it is not wise. Well our group originally went with name Cerberus and have so fsr set orselves up as that."
"This will be excellent, the first time we will have played together!" He pauses and breathes in deeply and closes his eyes (as if having an inner dialogue) He looks up and smiles and offers a hearty laugh "The ancestors will be pleased to witness something new."
Mateu will smile to the two halfling women, carefully freeing himself from their grip. "I will come look for you ladies after our time on stage is up."
The party makes their way to the stage and are greeted by the tall elf. "Ahh, good! Right on time. You'll be up in a few minutes. Once this act goes off stage there's going to be some special effects. We've got a couple wizards going out with you to light things up and kind of kick off the Full Moon celebration. Should be a good intro for you guys so play well!"
As the party is waiting you can hear some kind of commotion coming from the stage field. Looking out you see a horse drawn carriage being led and surrounded by about 20 guards coming onto the field. The guards are not too gently pushing people out of the way who don't move fast enough as the carriage pulls up right in front of the stage and stops, blocking the view of many unhappy people in the field. A couple people by the guards start booing and are quickly clubbed and shoved back into the crowd shutting up anyone else who's unhappy about the carriage being there. As the carriage comes to a stop you can just make out a few forms inside behind woven brass screens. The horse also lifts it's tail and takes a giant dump in the middle of the field.
The elf looks at the party curiously "Well, I guess you've drawn some, uhmm, special attention and Lord Wolf has decided to grace us with his presence." Lifting his eyebrow "It will just be a minute. Lets give the crowd a moment to settle down." As he's talking the other performers have come off the stage shaking their heads looking pretty pissed that they're exit was overridden by the carriage showing up.
The elf waves over a couple guys who seem obviously dressed for the part with long flowing robes with different symbols and tall pointy hats. The 2 wizards addressing the party "We usually do some colored lights and flames and stuff like that but if you want something specific let us know"
One of them turns to you "Oh, That's you guys? We saw the wagon on the field there. Nice paint job! Sure we can work with that. How about we have Cerberus materialize on stage in a burst of lights and spitting out flames. Then you guys can all walk onto stage through the flames and do your thing?" The other wizard is bobbing his head along "Then maybe we could get some magma flowing down off the stage while you guys are playing with like pops of sparks and stuff!"
(Either way works for me.)
Dox is happy to feel the beat backstage and be ready to go out.
(Do we know if there is a min or max number of songs we are allowed for our set?)
(I think it would depend on whether or not the audience likes our perfomace. At least somewhat.)
Same as any show

"Cerberus "
Ringo:
"This will be excellent, the first time we will have played together!" He pauses and breathes in deeply and closes his eyes (as if having an inner dialogue) He looks up and smiles and offers a hearty laugh "The ancestors will be pleased to witness something new."
Nox
"Cerberus will do just fine." Then to Ringo "Great! Can they get us some more gigs too?"
In what seems like fortuitous timing you hear a voice booming out from backstage "Cerberus to the stage. Cerberus, you're up next"
That's what happens when you wear a helmet your whole life!

Mateu will smile to the two halfling women, carefully freeing himself from their grip. "I will come look for you ladies after our time on stage is up."
"Let's do this."
Nox
Shifting back to the form you first met, Nox heads for the stage. "Here we go."

Mateu nodded even as he watched the Lord's retinue, already having a feeling that he isn't going to like the man very much.
(Sorry, busy couple days. Hopefully we can get on stage tonight :) Going to post a lead in shortly)

"We need an illusion of a Cerberus. The fire would work we if you could make it seem like it is coming from the three heads." Mateu tells them.
