“Nah. Depression mode over. This stuff is disgusting. Why do you drink it?” He takes a big gulp and starts to look a little green. Also a little bit red.
"Everyone else does. It's reason enough."
“I see. It gets better the more you drink…it”
"Really? Wish it was like that for me first time."
A newcomer opens the door to the tavern. He appears to be a Drow, with pale silver-blue hair, and vibrant green eyes. There's a moonstone rapier on his left hip, an ornate shortsword with intricate spiderweb designs engraved on the blade and a blue gemstone embedded in the pommel on the right. A powerful longbow rests easily across his shoulders, with a quiver full of arrows beside it. Holstered on his right hip right below the shortsword is an obviously Drow weapon: a hand crossbow.
He's wearing a leather chestpiece with ornate designs and mithral bands reinforcing it. He has a deep blue cloak the flows gracefully out behind him on his back.
This newcomer looks cautiously around the room as he stands in the doorway, his eyes looking temporarily on some of the more unusual people in the tavern.
The newcomer walks cautiously inside the tavern and up to the bar. He orders a feywine and tosses a platinum piece up on bar top. Right after ordering, he turns back to face the crowd in the tavern, scanning wearily for anyone who may cause him trouble.
A small kid with puffy brown hair, a baseball cap, ratty jeans, and a faded galaga shirt walks up. “Sup. You new here too? I just got lost and came here. What’s your name?” He talks kinda fast.
Why, yes, I am. I am Soldaer Torrae, Twilight Elf ranger in the service of Eilistraee. I'm not exactly sure how I got here. Last thing I remember was that I was chasing a band of marauding orcs away from my home village and then there was a bright flash.
“Wow that’s so cool…do you have a weapon? Can I see it?”
"Of course, I do," he says with a slight laugh. "I am always prepared to defend myself and my people."
With that, and a lightning-fast blur of movement, he draws his rapier, taps you twice on each shoulder (left, right, left, right), and then on the head, before flipping it over in his hand so that the hilt is extended towards you.
"Here, take a look, but be sure to give it back, and be very careful with it. It was a gift from my deity, and would very much so hate to loose it."
He looks in awe at the Drow “Really!?!? THIS IS SO COOL” He holds it gingerly and feels how heavy it is. He swings it carefully once or twice before handing it back to Soldaer. “You really chased off a whole band of orca? That’s sick.”
"Orcs are the least of the creatures I have dealt with. Ever seen a dragon?"
“Like a Komodo dragon? I’ve seen some pictures of them”
"Not a Komodo Dragon. A TRUE dragon."
“No way Jose” his eyes widen again “ahold up, did you fight a DRAGON?!?”
"Why yes I did," Soldaer says with a smile.
He reaches up inside his bracer, and pulls out a rather large dagger that you can tell was once the tooth of some massive beast.
"This dagger I crafted from the tooth of and Adult Green Dragon that I battled alongside several druids and fighters from my village. As I got the killing blow with that very rapier you held just a few moments ago, I was granted the kill, and rights to whatever I wanted from its carcass and it's hoard."
With that, and a quick toss in the air to hold the blade, he extends the handle to you.
"Here, take a look, although this is by far the least impressive trophy I got from that kill; its head still decorates the wall above my fireplace back home."
Poppy is a 5'6 white furred harengon with blue eyes, silver hair and a mix of an hourglass and athletic build. She's wearing a simple hoodie and tights.
Avery is a 6'0 human-like with heterchromia (Blue and green eyes), brown hair with blue streaks, tanned skin, and is wearing a padded armor outfit that resembles a pirates garb without the over coat. He wears a pendant around his neck that depicts a skull and crossbones withane eyepatch
Chase walks over to Poppy. "Hello. I'm Chase. You looked like you could some company."
"Hm? Oh, hi. I'm Poppy." SHe smiles, "I guess company wouldn't be bad."
He gives a small smile back. "It's nice to meet you, Poppy."
"Nice to meet you too," She nods
"Anything bothering you?"
"I mean.... i kinda got harrassed a bit."
"Harassed by whom?"
"You know that bob fella? He uh........ he said some really innapropriate things to me."
"Bob? I don't think so. What did he say?"
"He um..... he made a couple sexual remarks at me....." She seems embarressed to talk about it
*I get it. I would have Avarice go talk to Enethia, but she thinks she's casting TC.*
*Its exceeded the cast time*
Avarice walks outside and watches Enethia for a second before speaking. "What're you doing?"
"A... Sort of superstition thing I do"

A kid that looks around 12, with brown poofy hair, a brown eye and a green eye, a baseball cap, a ratty Galaga shirt, and ripped up jeans walks into the tavern. He doesn’t really seem to notice it’s a tavern as he’s just strutting in. He hitches his thumbs in his pockets and orders a soft drink. His voice has a rude tone but his words are polite.
A anthropamorphic rabbit (Harengon) looks at him. She watches the kid do this, a bit confused about why a kid is here. She wears a form fitting hoodie and tights, and has white fur, blue eyes, and silvery hair. She has a mixture of an hourglass build and athletic one, especially in her legs, "Hi there. Are you lost?" She asks
“Nope. I mean, kinda? Is it still being lost if you did it in purpose? Also where am I?” He looks around like he’s considering the other people in the tavern. And the he sees all the beer and his eyes widen for a fraction of a second.
"Welcome to the tavern at the end of the world." Poppy says, sipping a milkshake
He starts twirling his hair, Poppy can tell he does this a lot, as it’s curled up right there. “Well crap, Miss Zee won’t be happy with me…what’s your name?”
"Miss zee? I'm Poppy," She smiles warmly, "Whats yours kiddo?"
“I’m Cody. Pleasure to meeteth thee. By the way, Miss Zee is the owner of this restaurant she lets me work at for food and money.” He stops curling his hair and holds up his hand, signaling a high five, he grins awkwardly.
"Nice to meet you to Cody," Poppy says, accepting the high five, hitting his palm with her paw
“High fiving a cat…that’s new.” He finishes his soda. “Hang on, why is it called ‘at the end of the world’?”
"Hey, i may not be to apparent, but i'm a bunny," She says, "Do you see the massive void behind the tavern?"
*sorry I missed this. Also I’m stupid* “I didn’t happen to see…that.” He looks out the window and kinda just freaks out
"Don't worry about it, its harmless aslong as you don't go inside it." She says, patting his head to try and calm him down
Poppy is a 5'6 white furred harengon with blue eyes, silver hair and a mix of an hourglass and athletic build. She's wearing a simple hoodie and tights.
Avery is a 6'0 human-like with heterchromia (Blue and green eyes), brown hair with blue streaks, tanned skin, and is wearing a padded armor outfit that resembles a pirates garb without the over coat. He wears a pendant around his neck that depicts a skull and crossbones withane eyepatch
Chase walks over to Poppy. "Hello. I'm Chase. You looked like you could some company."
"Hm? Oh, hi. I'm Poppy." SHe smiles, "I guess company wouldn't be bad."
He gives a small smile back. "It's nice to meet you, Poppy."
"Nice to meet you too," She nods
"Anything bothering you?"
"I mean.... i kinda got harrassed a bit."
"Harassed by whom?"
"You know that bob fella? He uh........ he said some really innapropriate things to me."
"Bob? I don't think so. What did he say?"
"He um..... he made a couple sexual remarks at me....." She seems embarressed to talk about it
*Dont worry. Im dealing with it.*
