Re: Stables

Jenouise clapped and said, ”Wait right there, I will be around in a moment.” She seemed almost giddy as she disappeared into her wagon. She emerged out the back of the wagon with 2 silver pieces in her hand. She moved toward him, king of slithering along in dance like movements. As she got right up on him she said, ”Hold out your hand and close your eyes.” She waited for him to obey and dropped the silver into his hand. Then she stood on tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek. She giggled and went back into her wagon. She gathered her things to entertain, locked up her wagon and headed into the tavern.

Tavern

 Jenousie enters the tavern and finds Alaric already sitting at the bar.

There is a large red headed bartender.  In the far right corner are a group of seafarers armed with cutlasses, and in the left of the room are a group of what look to be fishermen.  In the far left corner a dranabian sits with  terran friends talking.

A dranabian female is waiting on tables.

When the woman appeared Jenouise shook her tambourine and spoke, ”I am an entertainer. I sing, dance, tell jokes, and all sorts of wonderful things. If you give me a private room and a hot meal, I will entertain your guests tonight. Do we have an accord?”

Tavern

11:15, Today: Jenouise rolled 13 using 2d6+5.  Comedy.

Her fevered eyes move across him, looking at him as if he did not really exist, but something inside him did exist. ”Of course.” She began walking around the room, looking at patrons. She is looking for someone willing to play along, and honestly you don’t make a living at this without being able to spot a prime punter. She saw one early on, but building the suspense was part of the fun. She just stuck her head into tables and looked at them, with her fever mad eyes and grin, and fingers wiggling in the air. She waited for the room to quiet down, her behavior would ensure this. Perhaps some murmur and snickering and then, she shook her tambourine and palm played the drum part. She strode around, pretending again to draw out her choice, but went back to the punter she saw earlier. She took him by the hand and got him to stand up. She motioned to him and got the tavern to come behind her and cheer him on until he relented and nodded his assent.

She turned to the room and slashed at her throat, her way of demanding silence which she got, immediately. Everyone leaned in to make sure that could hear. She began:

”So I met a group of travelers, mercenaries, on the way here. They faced off against a foul Ork horde, and their mighty leader Hu...”

Punter: ”Who?”

”Exaclty.”

”What?”

”No. No. No. Watt was to the left, casting lightening bolts.”

”Wait who is on the left flank.”

”No, I’ve already told you, Hu is in the middle, he is the big cheese, the man with the plan, the head honcho in charge. Hu is in the middle.”

”I’m sorry, I don’t know.”

”No. No. No. She was in the back, invisible. I love invisible, very fun thing to cast.”

[Frustrated]“WHO?”

”Oh no. Ida Nau. Would you please listen.”

”Sorry, I am confused.”

“Wrong again. You are my punter, a very prestigious position. Con Phuse’d was the leader of the Mercenaries”

”I’m a punter?”

”Silly, Ida is a Nagga, you are a Punter.”

”I though you was in the middle.”

”Now you are catching on. Hu in the middle. Watt on the left. Ida in the back.”

”I give up, who?”

”Are you calling me an Ork?”

[nearly in tears]”No you are a clown.”

“YES! You got that all by yourself. For that you get a kiss.” She kissed him on the cheek and nudged him to sit down.

[to the man beside him] ”What just happened?”

[man beside him smacks him with a walking stick] ”You are braindead, she told you like six times, Watt is on the left.”

Jenouise takes a bow...

A priest and a ranger walk into the tavern.... Rubus, noting the applause as Jenouise is taking a bow, nestles his staff and joins the clapping.

"Well, it's good to hear someone is glad we arrived." looking at Rubus with a straight face then giving a slight smile. "Seems our little clown found her audience."

  Everyone in the Tavern applauds Jenousie's performance and there are some whispers in the back of "that's the funniest joke I ever heard"

Even Eddie laughs

Above the applause, Gorn could barely hear Eddie, then looking at Rubus, "Tail? did he say Tail?" then turning to Eddie, "No, no tail, but I could sure use a tall tankard of ale. What are you drinking, my friend." turning to Rubus.

Back at the tavern, Ligeia looks for J. and asks for permission to retrieve the brigands' arms and armor from her home.

"If you'd like, you can help me carry them to the store for sale. I might even have a reward for you."

Re: Tavern

Rubus walks over to Eddie. No ale, no monks. The place harbored a bear, and some brigands made it theirs. As it happened, I met some people. We're all alive; they're all dead. The monks went to see what they could do about the blight. I've prayed for their souls.

And well you should, who knows what manner of evil befell them.  There's not much law around these parts except an occasional patrol. Speaking of which, one came by this morning reporting that King Jonathan had gone missing.

Gorn picks up his drink and begins to search the tavern slowly, checking out the other patrons. "Eddie, how many were in the patrol that came through earlier today?"

Rubus seems puzzled when he responds. Missing a King, most unusual. Did the patrol offer any details?

Re: Tavern

Jenouise performs for 45 minute, takes a short break, and returns for another 45 minutes. She mostly sings funny and bawdy drinking songs such as Money Rolls In and Landlord Fill The Flowing Bowl. Between songs she tells jokes, like first one she usually uses someone from the audience and gives him a kiss on the cheek as a thank you for helping. At one point she wants Gorn to join her “on stage,” and she whispers, ”Don’t worry, I’ll do all the work.” He politely refused.

She picked another fellow if he came with her she does a bit of bawdy humor - basically a bunch of jokes with the same punchline, the gentleman’s manhood is too large for a small girl like her. This is a PG game so you will have to provide the jokes yourselves. Everyone else had gotten a kiss on the cheek, and she went to give him one as well, but at the last second she switched and kissed him on the lips. It is a long, slow, and soft kiss that just goes on and on. The crowd of course reacted properly, raucous laughter interspersed with cat calls egging them on. When she finally pulls back she grinned and said, ”Tell you what, come up to my room later and we’ll try to make it fit again.” Ending her show she thanked everyone, reminded them to tip the barkeep and the serving wenchs (even if there are none) and took her bows. She sat in man’s lap and said, ”Ohhh...down boy.” Which is her last joke of the night.

Re: Tavern

More interested in what Eddie had to say, Gorn missed Jenouise's offer to join her on stage. The laughter and cat calls of the crowd did draw his attention at times, interrupting his attempts to gain info from Eddie, to the show on-stage. He'd have to admit, some of her banter with the crowd was rather funny.

Finally returning his focus to Eddie, "Any rumors on what might have happened to the King?" as he took another drink and tried to shut out the cacophony coming from the stage.
