Minion #1 = (4+1 = 5, this guy will be taking a hit) Minion #2 = (9+1 = 10, this guy too)
(Dice for minion one and two as I try to figure out where everybody is at in totals.)

Players: Fallen/Gwen = 25/Bust MM/Jareth = 24/Bust Zero/Mori = Sitting out Neptune/Elza = 19/Stayed MF/Thai = 14/Waiting on hit dice for total SD/Max = MIA/Waiting on first draw
NPCs: Viper =15/Stayed Runk = 20/Stayed Unnamed main 'bad' guy = 18/Stayed Minion #1 = 9/Surrenders at his terrible luck Minion #2 = 20/Stayed Minion #3 = 19/Stayed Minion #4 = 17/Stayed Minion #5 = 18/Stayed
Current Leaders are Runk and Minion #1!
(Also any Blackjack players out there? I have no idea what to do in the event of a tie xD And I'd rather avoid another go around at this game as it seems to have scared everbody away. crying)
Elza picked up the next card she was handed. Looking at it, she did some quick adding. "19, huh? I'll hold." There weren't many that would be able to beat her current total, and taking another hit would be way to big a risk.
(@Viper Far as I know its up to the dealer. Usually never seen blackjack played among a group without a dealer)
Gwen frowned as she looked at her hand. She placed her cards down on the table and decided to withdraw the vat of a cream she had made earlier from her belt pouch, the elf rolled her shirt up and rubbed the stuff on her swollen stomach just to keep the stretch marks down.

(Our unnamed 'bad' guy was the dealer to a degree. I'm sure I messed up some aspects of the game but the core of it was there. xD)

(In an effort to get this RP moving again, I'm considering devolving this into a barfight. Apparently the prospect of this card game scared away most our people. xD If nothing else I will keep the story moving with whoever is still active. I'm sure MF would agree with me when I say, we put too much work into this RP to see it stall out before we leave the first thread. scream )

(OOC: I think a lot of people here have never played poker or whatever card game it was. Heck I know I haven't. Also we kind of lose and gain members in small periods. Perhaps you should advertise for this rp and maybe the guild? :3 So we could possibly get more active members that don't just join and never post. xP)
(Yeah... I probably should have put out a poll or something before tossing the card game out there. xD I figured Blackjack/21 was a fairly simple card game and most people would know it from Gaia's game section.)
(As for the people who joined, I considered most of them our core group of RPers, people like you, MF, Fallen, etc. People who could be relied on to post with semi regularity.)
(Also, if you are keeping your character around for this RP, gimme a post please. If not, have him exit the story so he can come back when you feel like it.)

((BARFIGHT!!! Yes, that's something I can get on board with! Mwahahahahahaaaaa!!!))
Jareth's brow furrowed. "Godsdammit, this is taking too long. I'm starting to get bored..." He layed his hand down flat on the surface of the table, and then small arcs of blue electricity lanced out across it. Within seconds, the top of the table was beginning to char and all of the cards were bursting into flames. Drinks burbled in their cups. The metallic items in the pot at the table's center began to turn orange as they heated up. Of course, the discharge wouldn't be enough to fatally hurt anyone...but it would certainly piss them off. That was something Jareth was very, very good at.
Humming slightly to herself as Gwenhwyfar rubbed the cream into her swollen stomach, she were unaware at first but something crossed the elf's senses. Wrinkling her nose Gwen looked to the side and saw small arcs of electricity erupting from the counter as well as the smell of charred paper as their playing cards burst Into flame. Her eyes widnened next as she could see one of the bars patrons drunk and in a toss because his game had been ruined because of a magic user, the only one he could see was the one before him.
"Hey knife ears. Cut it out with the magic before I cut you..." The drunken man had a knife in his hand before he was slowly shuffling his was with two of his equally tipsy friends. Gwen would have little time to cast a spell before they would be dangerous to her but it would take too much time. She only could think of one thing at this point. From her pouch she withdrew a vial and wasready to throw it.

Mori watched as the card game quickly went up in flames. She took Tilly and stepped back some, not wanting her favorite doll to burn. Things got worse as the burnt up cards angered some of the drunk patrons. Things grew tense as a knife was pulled. Mori put a hand on one of the scrolls strapped to her hip, if a fight broke out she'd need protection.
Elza jumped back a little with a bit of a squeak when electricity started crackling across the table and the cards went up in flames. Seeing Mori backing away, she slid into a slightly protective position. She didn't know her knew friend all that well, but she wasn't so sure the mousy girl was much of a fighter. "Hey now, what happened to our friendly little card game?" she asked as she put her hand on the knife at her hip.

(Yay! We have movement again! Welcome back everybody!)
((And thankfully the treasure map is still hidden up MF's characters sleeve rather in the pot of now burning goodies...))
With the keen senses of a halfling, Ruby bounds off into the kitchen as she catches the scent of something burning assuming the smell to originate from there. A handful of dwarves pause in the puffing their pipes to make sure one of their companions hadn't fallen asleep and accidentally lit his beard on fire.
Given the wide birth around the "card" table to make room for its many players, it took a couple of moments before anyone reacted.
"TABLE BURN! STOP, DROP, AND ROLL!" Runk yells, leaping to his feet and quickly flipping the table, sending the charred objects atop it flying. Unfortunately he ends up flipping onto (our unnamed bad guy) and his minions. Needless to say, the heavy oak table pins them all, knocks the wind out of most of them, and smothers the fire before it could start.
Well versed in her mate's sudden acts of violence and stupidity, Viper gracefully dances out of the danger zone despite her pregnant condition. "So much for a friendly card game..." she mutters, pouring her drink onto a glob of heated coins and slipping them into Runk's pocket.
At this point Gromit, the war forged doorguard/bouncer, advances towards the flipped table and the unconscious patrons, where he checked them for injuries.
"I do believe that is our que to leave everybody." Viper states, nodding her head towards the door.
"Don't forget lucky monkey!" Runk adds, grabbing Thai before heading out the door. (MF is out of the loop for a bit due to some new meds last I heard so her character will remain with the group as an NPC of sorts till her return)
(( How about a choose your own adventure path feel here; members of this RP gimme a bold sentence at the top of your post where you would like the group to go. #1 being The Devilish Damsel (Viper's place of "business"), #2 being the Streets of Springfog (which will likely lead to Meddlin Manor), #3 being OTHER (tell me where you'd like to go!) ))
Gwenhwyfar stepped back from the approaching ruffians. The lead man's dagger was drawn from his boot and he was now brandishing it at the elf. She knew that she was only a few steps from the other wall and the bouncer was nowhere to be seen. She still clutched the vial in her hand in case any of them made a lunge towards her.
The dagger wielder raises his hand as he charged but his attack was cut short by the roar of a half-ogre. Runk flipping over the table had flattened her assailants underneath it.
She sighed with relief as the fighting was over but Morgan and the others were now dealing with the cleanup. Watching Viper and the rest of the card playing group leaving the expecting moon elf followed them as quickly as possible.
