I bet we can find a place with hobbit on the menu. Come on, Nasty.

A stroke of genius strikes Tvashtri as he looks over the web-like wreck of "Ourobourocyclos" - he can rebuild it! He has the ability! He can make it better, stronger, more powerful, poisonous...!
By the time Divenrell is reached, the rolling silver serpent has been replaced by an elegant silver spider.
Tvashtri is feeling very much in good cheer.
"I will cast my lot for The Outraged Fish - it sounds like a good place for spicy seafood, yes? I would also be most interested in visiting this Oozetown...."

Yes, you can go get something to eat greedy guts.
But remember, you can only eat while you are at an inn; and only what is on the menu. NOTHING ELSE!
That is what Nesod called it bard debacle where I swallowed the bard almost whole and AM HEALER bashed him in the face because the bard was taking women away from Nesod. he called it bard debacle.
"Oh Hobbits are tasty. Can I eat hobbit if on the menu Alissa? AM HEALER you will need to read menu me no read remember?"
Ask for a menu with pictures on it.
"Bard debacle? Oh, right, THAT. We got out of it OK, so I count it a a 'win' in our column. I want to try the fish place."
TAK: I don't know if this the best game to playtest a character.But to each his own
Nasty/AMH: Hobbit is a bit...exotic, but for enough coin. I am sure it can be arranged
"No! We're trying to make a profit! Only eat enough to keep you in fighting condition!"
"I beg to differ. 'For what doth it profit a man if he should gain the whole world, but at the price of any nice food?' Pippin 16:26, I believe."
"I'm going to be completely honest. I've only seen the movies, so you guys could make anything up and claim it's from the book, and I would believe you."
TAK is full of it. The book of Pippin only goes up to 12:21.
Ok then, let us assume that you have checked in to The Arrogant Fish. Your innkeeper is Shakey Jake
You are free to shop remember you all have WBL for 5th level, explore,kill bards etc..
This place has bard chops on the menu.
I'll have one and Nasty will have three.
I am hitting the weapon and armor shops. Need a few upgrades, and daddy gave me some money that is burning a hole in my pouch.
First off let me say I'm glad to see some of my East Coasters have survived.
AMH: the waiter looks at you strangely Did you mean Mutton chops?
Alissa: Not a problem you will be able to find whatever you're looking for.
Woohoo!!
Nesod. You better behave yourself while I am gone, or we are through.
"Since when have we been a thing? You despise me."
Now there's a plot twist I didn't see coming
Of course I am angry with you. I said you were cute and you came to my room, but I had been kidnapped. Since then, nothing.
I didn't even get any sympathy when I was transformed. In fact you left the party for a while. You better not have been with that hussy who stole my body.
"Never! I'm just used to being beaten senseless by every attractive woman I meet, but now...I have DR!"
I think I understand now, Alissa's father was a lich...No that's just creepy
"I'm wondering if your transmogrification's lowered your standards."
I never lower my standards.
1 person marked this as a favorite.

I have no standards.
And to the waiter: is the mutton from a bard?
Tvashtri's eyes pore over the menu while he flips the pages with his tail.
"I will be having the starfish vindaloo with a Gimlet Son-of-Gloin, and a faloodeh for dessert, if you please."
AMH: Uh....yeah sure it is
TAK: Excellent choice sir
Shakey Jake takes to the stage And now for our evening entertainment, let's welcome Brindley Soggybottom The bard steps to the stage to a mild applause and begins playing
"I'll have bard mutton as well."
Bah, I join the others. Turns out the oozefolk were pretty boring. All "no, you can't marry him, he's stunjelly-descended and you are a gray ooze-girl" and "If you start smooching that brown mold woman, you'll freeze to death, remember, you're vulnerable." Feh. What a letdown. Well, at least that Cuberic boy was cute...
I sit down at the table.
"Waiter, I'd like a month old pig carcass, please."
Coming right up you too The waiter says, So what brings such a fine group of folks like yourselves to town
"We are mighty adventurers, dear waiter. We explored the... uhhh... well, some big dungeon or other, and now we're off to... defeat..."
I trail off. Wossname again?
Adventurers huh...heading up north to fight the invading army?
I think you are looking for a wizard named Skeeve.
"Invading army, you say? Who are they and what is their stated reason for invading...and may I have more papadums?"
TAK Ah you know it's probably just rumors and such but they say there is a huge army ready to march out of Boordor to bring the world into the shadow, but like I said it's probably a bunch of hoohaw He will then head off to fetch some papadrums
"I will have three bard chops and a rack of hobbit ribs please.
AM Healer said there was hobbit here.
And some beer to go with it. A keg or two?
"The serpent is thirsty."
"I like to fight. Who are we fighting now?"
Some army in the north, seems like.
Jenny: An old coot sitting at the next table overhears you Bah...Just a buncha sabre rattlin if ya ask me. Back in 0T 9 we gave those boys a whoopin they won't soon forget.
Why would you rattle your sabre? Seems stoopiid to me makes too much noise better to draw out weapon quietly and attack to end fight and then eat your enemies.
Mama always said. 'Crush your enemies see them cooked before you and eat their children for dessert."
Where'd you come from old man? You were'nt there a minute ago.
Nasty: You you know we got an all you can eat buffet over there The waiter points towards what looks to be a feeding bin for horses.it ain't mutton but it ain't bad
Interesting! JRR and I posted at the exact same time and, at least on my computer, the last post keeps flip-flopping between the two of them.

What the...I´ve been sittin here damn near an hour, that's the problem with you young uns today never payin attention
I know weird huh, could'nt have timed get better if we planed it
So is there hobbit ribs in the buffett?
The Nasty Orc wrote: So is there hobbit ribs in the buffett? Sure... There's ribs in the there
Is the bard still playing? I haven't killed anything in a while...
AMH: Indeed he is and doing a 1d100 ⇒ 64 better than average job
"Back in OT 9, you say?"
Knowledge(history): 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (2) + 6 = 8
Wasn't that the Battle of the Incandescent Flumph, old man?"
Yes, and we do not forget.
