Toni will clap and holler when Dani succeeded shouting “that’s my quartermaster! Get it, you electronics goddess!”
She would chuckle at Gin’s enthusiasm, sending her a telepathic message of “This is real exciting, yeah?”
She would respond to Jeff with a conspiratorial smile and eyebrow wiggle, “don’t let me down, lucky.” She quirks her head a bit, “trying it out as a knock name for you, what do you think? We might even see if it becomes...uh, Dani? What’s that word when something is humorous because it’s the opposite? Irobot?”

Jeff would suck air in though his teeth, but try to muffle it like he was trying to hide it. He'd start 'nervously' bouncing his leg and glance Tsadok's way as he'd draw his card. He'd clear his throat and shift in his seat.
When Tsadok looks to Jeff after drawing his card, he'd be chewing on his lip, still bouncing his knee and eyeing the credits he so 'recklessly' bet. He'd drum his fingers on the table as if anxiously awaiting the outcome. Looking side to side, he'd 'realize' they were waiting on him. Honeyed eyes would widen, and he'd correct his posture as if he knew what he was doing all along. Puffing out his chest and lifting his chin, he'd boldly call out. "I raise! uh... 25! Yeah!"
Jeff would audiably suck air in through his teeth, rubbing his forehead to play off as stressing. He'd gulp. "Uh..." Glancing back to Tsadok, the man would quickly move his hand away from his face and give an awkward grin. After a pause, "You man enough to go all the way?" He'd bite his lip and give his opponent a playful wink. "Raise 25, big boy!"
If he bites and if I may:
Jeff Jeff Chaos: 4 (With advantage using Tides of Chaos)
Other Tides of Chaos PHB, pg. 103
Once per long rest, you can gain advantage on one attack roll, ability check, or saving throw. Before you regain use of this feature, the DM can have you roll on the Wild Magic Surge table after you cast a 1st level or higher spell. You then regain the use of this feature.
Tsarduk has the Bends: 4 (Subtract from Tsarduk's roll using Bend Luck)
Reaction Bend Luck
When another creature you can see makes an attack roll, an ability check, or a saving throw, you can use your reaction and spend 2 sorcery points to roll 1d4 and apply the number rolled as a bonus or penalty (your choice) to the creature’s roll. You can do so after the roll but before any effects occur.
(Not sure how Bend Luck works for a card roll, but even with a max roll, the other guy isn't going to beat Jeff anyway.)
Jeff's opponent raises in response, both contestants now betting the maximum 100 credits. At the count of three, both of you turn over your cards and total them up. Jeff easily wins, with his cards totaling up to 18 vs. his opponent's total of 10. "That's two tests passed. Now for the last test, the test of combat!"
Tsadok raises a hand and the tarp is pulled off of the cage, revealing a large golem made out of various cybernetics. As the cage door opens, Tsadok and his men back up, leaving all of you to deal with the creature.
Cybernetic Golem:19

“Well this is awkward.” Jeff’s ‘timid smile’ would grow into a cocky grin when Tsadok would show his hand. He’d confidently flip over his cards as he’d lean back and rest his elbow over the back of his chair. “I’m just Lucky, I guess.” Jeff would cast a glance over his shoulder, flashing Captain Toni a wink. That was two tests passed making them one step closer to their goal, the answer to Toni’s question, Tsadok’s tattoo artist! Yes. That’s it.
Oof. Gin’s hearty slap on the back knocked him back to reality. Beating ass? Jeff would look around expectantly only to find a Golem. “Ahh... Yes. Of course!” He’d pop up out of his seat and adjust his jacket. “If I may?” With a gentlemanly bow, Jeff would take two smooth steps, strifing ahead of the Lashanta sisters to buy them some time to prepare. He’s position himself at Dani’s side. He knew better than to get between her and her robit Arc. That hearty bot’s a beautiful build that could easily beat his ass.
Arcade, seeing Dani get attacked, quickly lets out a sharp whistle to try and get the Golem's attention, before priming his targeting program and firing towards its head.
Dani grunts, but the blow bounces off of her plating, and she grins at just how well Kwesi is working (18 AC, woo). Her defensive shield powers up, and another portable heater pops down into her hands as she slaps it onto the golem's back.
Heat metal on a metal component of the golem (preferably an irremovable one). 3 damage, and if it can remove the component, DC 16 Con ST or drop it. If it makes the save or can't get rid of the component, dis on attack rolls and ability checks.

Toni charges forward, the hammer of sebulba whistling as she spins it wildly, before bringing it into an uppercut against the golem with a resounding KLANG!
KLANG: Attack: 14 Damage: 12 +14 if critical
she then spins around, slamming down into it’s chest, keeping the hammer spinning in a defensive manner.

“He looks rock hard.” Jeff blinks as the Golem opens up with some stiff moves. “**** him!” With a few movements of his wrists, it looks like the caster is shooing the construct.
BA: Hexblade’s Curse Once per short rest, as a bonus action, choose one creature you can see within 30 ft. to curse it for 1 minute (or until the target dies, you die, or you are incapacitated). Against the cursed target, you gain a +3 bonus to damage rolls, score a critical hit on a roll of 19 or 20, and you regain 5 HP if it dies.
Then with a twist of his wrist, he’d follow up with a snap, commanding a streak of crackling energy to fire at the Golem.
