Moonbooth

​

As you strolled through the faire ground, which was super jammed up with the incredible amount of foot traffic, something caught your attention at the corner of your eyes. Peering over the crowd, you would have noticed the familiar sight of massive tents pitched within a smaller area that had been fenced off. There was a massive line of people that wrapped around the establishment, people were queueing up for a chance to test their luck.

In the front of these tents was a devilishly handsome young man who wore an ivory-white tunic with matching pants and shoes. Notably, he was also sporting a white cape, which inside and outer rim sported a rich blue. He was also displaying the brooch of Endra’s Wager (a card with a Fleur-de-lis looking emblem engraved inside it) on his chest. While a crowd of women clamored over him, you heard them referring to the young man simply as ‘prince.’ The Prince appeared rather elegant as he advertised the Moon Booth.

Whether or not you are enticed by the young man, you came closer to listen.

Prince

Welcome, welcome, Endra is now giving the rich and the poor a chance to become richer, she does not discriminate against anyone from any class or standing. If you would like to see if Endra is smiling upon you today, why not make a wager? Depending on your fate, you can double or triple your initial wager!

The rules are very simple, any person who would like to play will be escorted to one of our booths. Within, you will find a massive pot where we have put in 100 coins.

This will surely not go poorly, Cain thought as he took the pot of fancy smancy moons and gave it a good hard shake, as if he was scrambling the contents of a vegetable juice drink. Finally flipping it into the air and watching it land perfectly onto the table after three aerial somersaults, the midnight haired Muse grinned at the dark skinned Nigerian Pronce and pulled out...

Opting to bet within the middle of the options, Harveste held out a small portion of gold she'd saved up, taking a gulp of air as she let chance take it's course. "I cant help wanting to try, after all... And I can use what I earn for the farms, maybe. That might be nice."

Cain furrows his brows, wondering what sort of scumbag witchery is going on here, but at the Nigerian Prince's master's request, he shrugged and pulled out a new piece for the bag. What awaited him was...

"I know I have pretty bad luck, but it'd be nice to get some more funds for my shop. I'll be able to heal more people that way after the fair's over! Since I am trying to save though...Is this bit alright for now?"

"Woohoo! All aboard the Alphabet Chocolate trainnnnn!" she grinned, reaching into the pot with stars shining in her eyes. She made a spectacle out of it, jumping onto the booth as she shook the pot vigorously, making a small dance routine out of it. "40-60 odds are my kinda thing! Woooooot!"

Gwyn stared blankly at the man and his booth and sighed heavily. She should have learned from the Sunbooth loses before to avoid this song and dance, but it was so very tempting. She'd never been the gambling type and didn't care for fate, save subverting it out of sheer stubbornness, but everyone seemed to have so much fun. It didn't hurt that she was pretty set at the moment and so, with another forlorn sigh, the archer moved forward to place her own bet.

"I've played once and did okay... I-I know I have a slight problem, but... A small amount shouldn't hurt..." She peeked around, wondering if there was anyone who could be asked to keep her from overdoing it, but in her haste, she had already placed her bet to try to win again. With her hands clasped together, she hoped for the best. It was too late to turn back now, right? "I used to get told this was the answer to all questions in the universe. Let's see if it's true."

Well. This was a familiar sight. Ashiore shrugged and tried again. Might as well give it a shot. A festival was all about doing fun stuff that you normally didn't do.

Moonbooth

The Moonbooth was bustling with activity as its patrons furiously shook the pot with the coins inside, madly inspecting the face to see if they had won. Of course, some win and some lose, there was no telling what would result from testing Endra's love that day.

The girls working the booths come out together to dispense the winnings up to this post, attempting to capture the patrons' attention so they would get tips.

"Hello, if you're feeling rather lucky and are winning big, why not give some of us girls a tip? Surely, everyone knows that Endra smiles on those who are generous!"

DM Note: Please make sure you are following the rules, only send gold to this account and only in whole numbers (5, 10, etc) or your wager is going to be taken as a penalty.

 

Indra eyed the one responsible for the endra wager's booth this time around. Though she couldn't deny the man had his perks, he wasn't quite the type she liked. That aside, the blonde eyed her surroundings to make sure someone wasn't stalking the blonde. She'd rather not have to deal with gambling photos again... That was when she noticed the girls working at the booth and. She wondered if any of them really wanted to be there, or smiling to all of these strangers... She tipped, out of respect for their courage of dealing with a bunch of patrons.

"Hopeful. Let us see if my luck will smile for me..."

Oh course, who else would be found in one of these shady casinos other than the green-haired Quinnster who had gone out of his way to hunt down the Moonbooth. Despite being kicked out from the establishment, namely the Sunbooth the last time he played. Quinn wanted to start small this time. Maybe, small increments will allow him to play and continue to win rather than being kicked out.

And so, with a hopeful gleam in his eyes, he shook the container and released the hatch where the coin would fall.

"Alright, let's go, papa Quinn needs a new pair of shoes!"

And the result is...

A black haired girl in a dark jacket with a scarf wrapped around her neck approached the stall. Due to her lack of dangerous looking equipment or and signs of wear or tear on her casual autumn attire. Most probably just thought her a NPC. She ignored the crowd and threw some gp at the man named 'Prince'. Chelsea detested gambling and normally would avoid it at all costs. Better to build a fortune through progress not luck. Well, she would do it just this once since earlier money boosts were Superior to later in her mind.

Moonbooth

The girls working the booths wandered about the floor with a jar filled to the brim with gold, ready to dispense the winnings. All winnings up to this post have been paid out.

While the girls patrolled the booth, they cast a pitiful smile toward @Lady N, they threw Quinn a dirty glare. One of them went and got the manager in secret. Meanwhile, the girl who asked for a tip earlier raised her voice in response to @Indra.

"A big thank you to this miss for such a generous donation! May Endra smile on you this day."

The girl leaned over and whispered into the blonde's ear, "I have prayed to Endra for your success, the next time you roll, you will get a better chance to win (-5) consider it a one time gift since you are the first to give us such a nice tip!"
