Eldin responds to Adair, "That's awesome! At this rate, I didn't fail my mission completely. Now if only I could find a bartender..." Eldin sighs as his shortcomings both inside and outside the arena being to wear down on him.

Eldin can't help but find the sudden appearance of people wanting the post when just earlier that morning, he was having an ungodly amount of trouble finding just one. He collects himself, not letting anyone notice his internal glee and says to both the people wanting the job,
"I'm very happy to know you are interested. But I have to ask:
(It was straight Charisma. Also, I actually rolled it to see how Eldin would react.)
Eldin nods to Argoth and says, "Well if you're sure..."
He then turns to the other person who approached him and asks, "Well..."
(The following sequence are question Eldin will ask. However, he will ask the next question after the previous was answered. The reason I lumped all of it together is because I didn't want to spam the thread with multiple posts)
Firstly, I don't think we've met before. I'm Eldin, a roguish mercenary. Eldin extends his gloved hand for a friendly handshake.
Do you drink?
Have you worked as a Bartender before? If so then for how long and why did you quit, if you don't mind me asking
How do you feel about the fine upperclassmen of society? What about those who live from hand to mouth?
Do you have many friends or are you more of a loner?
1. "Something wrong? You look a little green in the face. Ha just kidding! The name's Baryk Greycastle, I'm sure you've heard the name before. ... I'm good with a bow"
2. "Of course I drink! My great deeds are often met with glorious celebrations!"
3. "Why yes I used to work in my families tavern were we sold our renowned Greycastle vodka. I left to seek glory in combat just as my ancestors did."
(I'll get to the other questions in a bit, I'm at work rn)
The level-5 battle above is still in initiative. I hope this overlap doesn't confuse anyone. After the battle above... New competitors are arriving in waves. Everyone wants a chance to make a name for themselves. Are these fighters any different?
This fight will be 3-vs-3. Victory will be awarded... 1... King of the hill. After 3 rounds the flag (¥) will become active remaining within 10 feet of the flag (¥) for 5 rounds while keeping your opponents away will win the match, alternatively you can win by defeating all enemies.
The time: 3... Night has fallen. One last battle will be fought tonight. The moon offers little illumination. Torches are lit and Dancing Lights are cast over the field. Yet the darkness penetrates the area. Deep shadows fill every crevice.
A group of new faces enter the arena. Basil, the announcer, comes out to introduce the latest challengers. A gruff, stout, dwarf with a great, golden, beard and wearing heavy chain armor, carries a shield and hammer along with various other arms visible on his belt. A thin elven man with green eyes and sandy brown hair, carries a bow and has a quiver on his back, as well as a pair of swords on his belt. He has light leather armor peaking out from under his clothes. An uncommonly tall man with a full beard of black curls stands as the sun shines on his bald head. He wears no armor and carries only a simple sword. A fiery colored, fiendish, girl with glowing eyes, stands as her loose fitting clothing and deep black hair play on an unnatural breeze. A raven-black, bird-man with a haunted look prepares himself. He carries a number of small sharp weapons.
"The arena sees new challengers. A young citizen of the plane of air. Light and quick. A bird of prey... Urrrrk!"
"A woman born of fiendish blood. Lovely and terrifying, as women often are... Temaya!"
"A giant of a man on a mission with only a sword and his instincts to aid him... Ramal!"
"An elven archer, ready to show us what a bow can do... Peren Firahel!"
"A warrior of the mountain heart, forged in steel... Argoth Dragonslayer!"
"And an elf of few words, returning today... Jianyu Mendoza!"
The battle field has been reformed. A troupe of spell casters shape the world with magic both powerful and simple. Stone Shape, and Mold Earth, Druidcraft, and Plant Growth. The spectacle delights the crowd. What forms is a marble tower standing in a well kept garden, and encircled with marble halls. Low, even, steps recede to the garden and again into the tower where a wooden dais offers a height advantage.

(Sorry, if you are effected by the T's curse.) Make any final preparations, choose a starting position, and roll initiative when ready.)
The teams will pit Argoth with (5, 4) Jianyu and Urrk, against Paren, Ramal, and Temaya.
(Jianyu can swap for a player if another comes before we're out of initiative.)

Temaya, with a prideful look on her face, casts thaumaturgy (from the infernal legacy trait) making dramatic (yet perfectly harmless) tremors in the ground.
Devious serpent folk devoid of compassion, yuan-ti manipulate other creatures by arousing their doubts, evoking their fears, and elevating and crushing their hopes.

Argoth, a mighty dwarfish fighter can't help but overhear what Eldin said and exclaims happily, "I can be your bartender!".
"I am a fighter but that shouldn't be a problem. I can look over your bar while you're fighting and when I'm fighting, you can watch over it!"
"I hear you're in need for a bartender! While I am I notice when it comes to ales, I've been fermenting the finest liquor from my family's famous recipe for years!"

How much experience do you have?"
Argoth says, "Well, it looks like you've found yourself a real bartender."
"Probably a good idea, I don't need to be distracted by ale and such when I should be preparing for my fights."
Put your spoiler here. Charisma role: 3. This is straight charisma right?
I get -1 from straight charisma
As the crowd is anticipating the up coming right a young elf in the typical garb of a ranger attempts to find a good seat to watch.

Ramal wanders among the crowded coliseum.
“Doesn’t look like he’s here either.” He says to himself.
Noting the fighters and matches he’s caught so far, he’s slow to leave the arena.
”Well, since I’m here...”
He makes his way to the lists.
ooc: whoops nevermind I’m in it!

After Eldin finishes his talk with Baryk, he will try to find a shop in the town where he can buy a holy symbol and 100 ml of alcohol or spirit.
