[Beginner Open RP] The Salty Sailor Tavern

Meredith looked over at the other woman at the table, feeling the first stirrings of concern. She'd realised that the girl was feeling a little tipsy, but after finishing the two mugs now sitting on the table, she looked like she was ready to go face down in her third. Meredith slipped out of her seat and moved around to stand beside Syleen's chair and whispered softly in her ear.
"A tip for you, if you're feeling a little worse for wear... I can have a little chat with our friendly bar-keep there and ask him to put water in your tankard for every other ale that you order. It'll help you stay in the game longer and nobody need know but us girls... A brew that strong takes some getting used to, and there's no shame in it if you aren't used to strong drink...?"
Meredith honestly didn't know why, but she was feeling a bit protective of the lass. She also wasn't sure why she kept thinking of Syleen as 'lass' and 'girl'... Syleen can't have been more than a few years younger than her. But that protective urge was there all the same.
Maybe she just reminds me of me ten years ago, trying to keep up with the squaddies in the mess she thought, with a wistful half smile.
She waited quietly, to see how Syleen would respond.

**Darced** · 2012-05-01, 12:53 PM

Syleens looks up to the woman, she looked strong and encouraging. After a moment of thought Syleen blinks and whispers her response, "Thanks for the concern....but I'm no cheater. I'll be more careful though." She looks to her drink and yawns, "I appreciate the idea, it's nice having someone looking out for me every now and then." She smiles, card on her head, "Now, let's continue the game." Like the mother I never had. Like I give a shisssshhh...

((Thanks Kerath, she may have done something stupid without your support.

))

((Also! I've never been drunk before lol, so all I know is people can be susceptible to random emotional outbursts, like rage or laughter. Plus, I'm a guy playing a girl character, so I'm guessing all the way. Just thought you should know in case none of this makes sense. :P))

**Darsithis** · 2012-05-01, 01:27 PM

Darsithis hid her smile in her mug. She couldn't get drunk, of course, being undead, but it was always entertaining to see how quickly everyone else would. She'd already calculated to the minute the amount of time it would take to get Syleen inebriated, and was quite pleased with herself that she was right.

If only a mage were around that could cast a spell to make her feel drunk, the night would be complete.

"A toast to the game and good company!" she shouted, raising her glass.

**Darced** · 2012-05-03, 04:02 PM

Syleen raises her mug into the air, "I'll toassshh to that!" Her face red, but stern, she is determined to prove herself as a formidable drinker. I'm not out yet!...hic!

**Darsithis** · 2012-05-07, 03:17 PM

((are we still doing this one??))

**Darced** · 2012-05-07, 08:03 PM

((I dunno, everyone seems to have left for finals week or something.))

Mex entered the Salty Sailor Tavern, curious as to what commotion was going on this time.
He had spent the past two years in Booty Bay, but the recent lack of activity had left him bored. Now, he felt as though he was in need of something to drink, as amusing as the thought was.
He was a stockily built human, with dark blue hair and piercing eyes the colour of ice. A nasty scar ran across his face, and he was dressed in plain linen.
What is going on . . . Mex turned his head and noticed the commotion at the table, where it appeared that a young girl was in her cups in some sort of . . . challenge . . .
Mex shook his head. Foolish lesser races, he thought, amused. He approached the bartender, who looked quite gruff and unfriendly to Mex's eyes. "Anything - it doesn't matter to me." he snapped, knowing he sounded impatient and blamed it on stress.
His icy eyes never left the young girl.

**Kerath** · 2012-05-09, 06:33 PM

((Sorry guys, been a bit distracted, but happy to continue!))
Meredith clapped the younger woman on the shoulder in a friendly fashion, though she quietly suspected she'd end up assisting Syleen to her bed. Her eyes flicked to the big man sat with them. Or she might yet be able to work her charms on someone else... she thought with a wry half smile as she took her seat again.
She tucked an errant strand of glossy dark hair behind her ear then grinned at Darsithis as she proposed a toast, gladly raising her mug and drinking in response. Her eyes casually straying to the newcomer as he approached the bar as she wiped a bit of foam from the frothy dark ale from her lips.

**xMexyragosX** · 2012-05-10, 02:33 AM

Mexyragos, of course, was no mere human. He noticed those at the table begin to look curiously his way, but ignored them stiffly. Who cares if the lesser fools wish to waste their time and spend their lives drinking their precious nights away, he thought, sneering in disgust. If they wish to do so, then by all means, allow them to do so. But I shall not partake. He sniffed, taking in his surroundings. The tavern was bland and barbarish, and not at all the place he wished to be at the moment. Nonetheless, he was, and decided to amuse himself somewhat.
Mexyragos took his drink and chose a table a fair distance from the main group. He sat down and sipped at his mug, watching them intently at their game.

**Mehman** · 2012-05-14, 08:44 AM

an orc walked in dressed in dark plate armor with a hood over her head, leaving it in shadow, her glowing eyes flickered for a second as she looked around the inn, after standing in the door for a good minute or two, she walked up to the bar and ordered a beer, sat down at an empty table in a corner, she turned the chair so that her back was towards the corner, having her sword at the ready for any eventual attackers. when her beer came she placed it on the table after taking a sip. she looked around the room for anything fun to look at. if you looked around her neck a small golden chain could be seen, the chain ended in a locket half concealed by her armor.

**xMexyragosX** · 2012-05-15, 03:26 PM

Mexyragos lowered his cup, turned from the table, and noticed the female orc.
Interesting . . . the blue dragon mused to himself, not caring if he appeared suspicious by inspecting her. Yet, he did, taking in the dark plate and the dark weapon at her side. He muttered softly, casting a spell directed towards her to see what power she might be able to control, and was surprised.
A death knight . . . of course, he thought, for the first time noticing the icy blue eyes underneath the hood, which shadowed her face. Yet, the highest emittance of power he felt coming from the locket around her neck.
Mexyragos clenched his hand around his cup, sloshing a bit of wine on the floor, but didn't care. His blue eyes were fastened on the orc's locket, the power raidating from it more powerful than even he could have perceived.

**Palapwn** · 2012-05-16, 04:27 PM

A flash of arcane appeared on the Booty Bay docks, a light skinned Goblin appeared, dressed in blood red robes he pulled down his hood revealing his bald head "Phew! sure is hot here!" , he strutted into the Tavern and stood next to the Orc Death Knight and looked up at her "Whats up tall, dark and ugly?" he cooly said as he conured two mugs of Ale "Name's Gazlow, here have one, on the house!" he said affirmingly as he passed a mug of ale to the Death Knight "I rarely give things for free, and by rarely I mean once in two blue moons rarely, so take that as a compliment gal". He gulped down the entire mug of ale and hit the mug down hard on the wooden table nearby "So whats the low down here huh?"

**Mehman** · 2012-05-16, 06:15 PM

"no clue Gazlow, i just arrived" the death knight had noticed the people staring at her, and welcomed their stare, her kind outside the forced of the Lich king were few and far between. she especially took note of Mexyragos ((not knowing his name ofcourse)) and stared back, feeling a power beyond a mere mortal coming from him. she then returned to looking at Gazlow, "thanks for the ale", lifting it in the air with a slight nod in his direction.

**Palapwn** · 2012-05-16, 06:29 PM

Gazlow turned towards the blue haired human "Hey bluey! whats happening here?" he said with a smirk.

**xMexyragosX** · 2012-05-17, 01:39 AM

Mexyragos couldn't believe his ears.
He turned darkly to the goblin, whose stance bespoke his arrogance and cockiness.
"Excuse me?" Mexyragos spluttered, anger heating up his face, and his icy eyes flashed. "How dare you speak to me in that manner?"
With an effort, though, the blue calmed himself sufficiently enough to speak civil-like to the goblin. "In answer to your little question; no, I know nothing of what is transpiring here. From what I can see," and he gestured towards the group seated at the farther table, "they are playing some sort of . . . game . . . that I have no care for. Now, if you'll excuse me." Mexyragos turned his chair again, so that he was facing the door to the tavern. He sipped at his beer, anger still hot inside him.
Lesser races . . .

**Mehman** · 2012-05-17, 08:24 AM

the orc had returned to looking over at the dragon and could feel that he felt distanced from the other people in the inn. there is something odd about that guy, she thought, and i will find out what it is. she walked over to the blue with her mug in hand. "there's something wierd abot you 'bluey' and i'd like to know what. i'd also like to know why you stared at my locket before." she said, having never really liked being subtle in her questions.

**Palapwn** · 2012-05-17, 09:31 AM

"Geez get off your high horse pal" Gazlow said to the human regarding his response "Now one of you boozos ask those two whats the deal" he said with irritation towards the Death Knight and Human. Gazlow hated it when there was gold ot be make and no one's willing to take it, he would do it himself if he only knew whats the plan.

**xMexyragosX** · 2012-05-17, 02:21 PM

Mexyragos stood, meeting the female death knight and almost matching her height. He saw her eyes widen slightly in surprise, and smiled fiercely.
"That... locket holds a power untold of... yes, I know of it, don't act so surprised. I know many things, girl," Mexyragos set his mug on the table and met the orc's icy gaze.
"You insult me with your suspicions, death knight," he continued, the smile gone. "You truly think I am something more than a simple... let's say... human mage? What if I told you I were with with Kirin Tor? Or perhaps a mage of the Alliance? For all you know I could be a mercenary... yet you believe I am something else?" Mexyragos smiled again, sitting back down and gesturing towards the chair directly across from him.
"I can feel your power as well, death knight," Mexyragos said, taking a sip of his beer. "Seat yourself, please."
"As for you," Mexyragos said, to the goblin. "If you can not keep quiet I will polymorph you into a squirrel."
Mexyragos directed a smile back at the death knight. "Now, then, perhaps we can speak?"

**Mehman** · 2012-05-17, 07:47 PM

"for a 'simple' mage to have found something odd about my locket woulda taken a conciderable time and being far closer than you were. i'll tell you what powers it holds if you tell my what your true heritage is." she said in a bargaining tone. she lifted her mug to take a sip when she noticed it was empty. and placed it down on the table again. never having taken her eyes from the human sitting across her. "deal?"

**Palapwn** · 2012-05-17, 08:27 PM

"Woah Woah Woah..." Gazlow said as he stood between the Death Knight and the Human, "No one threatns me with magic pal cause i can freeze you before you could say mullah" talking to the human. Gazlow hated people down talking him, and hated people threatening him with magic his savvy.
