Word goes out on the street, the so-called king of beggars has put out a call for all loyal beggars and associated professions to come pay him homage and heed his words this very night!

The audience is going to be granted in the sewers under the Bottle and Jug in a rather large cistern. Headwear is advised.

Rat grabs some discarded newspaper and folds it into a makeshift hat. Then she makes her way to that meeting.

A pungent wave flows thickly through the streets of Sigil as the ogre wanders in search of the beggar king. Or in his case someone with lots of jink. Eventually he arrives where he is said to reside. Filling the area with a rotten stench. With legs the size of tree trunks he begins jumping up and down shacking the area and causing the area around him to rattle.

Youz come out. He shouts in his loud voice.


OOC: Sorry for being late, ended up having to stay an extra night due to a snow.

((RPing the low INT quite well there as you probably didn't read the post correctly. You have been told where to go, and its not his home and there is a gathering happening. Care to edit your post?))

The ogre ((or orc - you changed between your posts GameGeeks)) stands shouting outside a random house. He obviously was so stupid he failed to actually comprehend the message to meet in the sewers under the B&J.

The locals cower in terror at this fresh horror in their lives, at least until a rare hardhead patrol comes along and inform the Ogre that he either move along or he will be taken in for loitering with malicious intent.

As for Rat and Garlfol, they succeed in making the meeting.

Atop a raised area at the back of the cistern are two humanoids. One is a strangely painted red skinned goblin... he may look familiar to some. The other is a blue skinned and armoured creature with a strange mask. Tentacles writhe around her head.

The goblin speaks:

With spiky hat and feathered gown, the roundness is mine. Asking challenge, telling do, prize win.

He looks at the blue skinned water genasi and nods. She speaks in a musical voice with a sing-song rhythm.

This is the High Chief Warbler, who has been calling himself the king of beggars, and i will translate.

He has the begging bowl you seek. If you do as he says, compete for the prize, he will give it to the one who wins.


Many of the crowd gasp at this and several shuffle forward. The goblin continues.

Roundy keeper in secrets. Birds flew with spiked tails, fleety were the little frozen ones.

The bowl is not here, its safe. Harbour no idea of assaulting us, we are adequately protected and we don't want to kill you... at least not right now. Warbler also says that he had a nice time in Stygia and tobogganing was fun.

The crowd gasp again, muttering about the rumour of the crazy Xoasitec.

Whimsy doings, do it or fail. Lips upon the rankings, gold for giving, heads for chopping.

3 tasks you must succeed in. And we will be watching, we have agents who will tell us as tasks are completed.

The first is you must kiss a lady of rank and wealth, or for the females present, a man. And ill add my own extra here. Any of you who succeed in kissing the man known as Nero Urbane, a planeswalker who often can be found at Khazeet's bar will be exempt from the second task.

The second is you must amass 100 jink ((in game)) from begging and give it to the next person you see exiting muriel's inn ((also including coming from OOC room)).

The final... stop anyone else who has completed the tasks from coming to claim the prize. Only one can receive it... you don't want to lose out now do you?


The assembled beggars start to eye one another, shuffling away from each other, some reaching into their robes.

Fish!

He says GO! Return here when you have completed the tasks! And remember, we are watching you all!

With that a cloud of darkness descends on the poorly lit cistern, throwing all into chaos. Screams and shouts erupt as random fights break out and others try to escape or attack those on the raised area... but they are gone... for now.
