The man smiled, extending a hand to grab Lisa in thanks before remembering the scene from earlier. Thinking better of it, he retracted his hand hastily and shoved it in his robe pocket.<br/><br/>'The cave is a few hours travel east, next to the old Deepwood Mines. It was abandoned after monsters started coming out of the cavern. I'm sure they will be no match for you though..' the man stammered.<br/><br/>'When you get the samples, bring them back here and I will give you the remaining reward.'<br/><br/>The man shuffled off as quickly as he had appeared, leaving the girls to finish their meals.<br/><br/><hr/><br/><br/>When everyone had fallen asleep, Choa crept down to the first floor where the party was still going strong. It was a miracle anybody could get a wink of rest around here. Upon showing the innkeeper that she had money to play, he ushered her behind a curtain into the kitchen where a staircase led down to a smaller den.<br/><br/>A group of men were huddled around a table with some dice. A large heap of gold was piled in the center of the table. A few eyes glanced at Choa as she walked in, and many eyes fell on her ass as she walked past.<br/><br/>'Missy, the bathroom is upstairs,' a man chuckled as she sat down. There were 3 people at the table, including herself.<br/><br/>'Let 'er play, brotha,' The second added, licking his lips. 'Hope you've brought enough to bet ya have.'<br/><br/>'The game is greed and goblins,' the first man grumbled. 'You know how it goes.'<br/><br/>He handed Choa a cup with five dice in it. Each man began to shake their own dice, calling for her to place her bet.<br/><br/>They sized up her small pouch and smirked, each of the men putting down 25 gold. The first man to Choa's right cleared his throat, declaring: Two fours.<br/><br/>The second man waved his hand.<br/><br/>'Goblin. Two sixes.'<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spoiler: Click to Show/Hide</div><div class="spoiler_body"><strong>Greed and Goblins</strong><br/>Choa Starting Gold: 50<br/>Turn Order: Man 1 -&gt; Man 2 -&gt; Choa<br/><br/>Each round, bet up to 50 gold. The minimum bet must match the minimum bet of each player on the table. Each player rolls five six-sided dice. The first player starts with a call about their dice.<br/><br/>e.g. Man 1: I've got 1 five.<br/><br/>Then, the next person in line has the chance to call greed, or goblin. If he calls greed, then Man 1 must reveal 1 five (which he claimed to have). If Man 1 was telling the truth, then Man 2 loses his bet. If goblin is called, play continues and Man 2 takes his turn.<br/><br/>e.g. Man 1: I've got 1 five.<br/>Man 2: Goblin. I've got 1 six.<br/><br/>On Man 2's turn, he must increase either the quantity of dice or the value of the dice in his call. For example he could have called for 2 ones (increasing the quantity of dice from 1 -&gt; 2) or he can call for 1 six (increasing the value of the dice from five -&gt; six).<br/><br/>Play continues until only one winner remains.<br/><br/>Outcomes:<br/><ul class="bbc_list"><li>Choa accumulates 100 gold, giving the party +2 to all stats for the next mission and 4 healing potions.</li><li>Choa loses all gold, negating all party stat bonuses and item rewards gained.
