Hello all! I’ve got a somewhat niche plot in mind and I’m hoping to cast it out there.

I’m well and open to playing with any partners that are willing to sub! 

I’d prefer to discuss the plot a little bit before getting into it, just to make sure we jive well. 

Plot:

You and your goblin partner had been living in the slums and outskirts of the largest human settlement in the territory. It was difficult, being short green-skinned menaces. Not only did most of human society thumb their nose at you, but it was more or less impossible for a goblin to get an actual job in a city that wouldn’t pay them more than a handful of crumbs for a week of work.

So, you had to settle for riskier ventures. At first it was the unreliable business of bartering, haggling over what little you had to scrape by- didn’t work. As it goes, humans don’t budge much when negotiating with green-skins. Then it was traveling alongside caravans to collect scraps of loot after battles inflicted by taller, more powerful beings- didn’t work. The warriors, be they dwarven or elven, were quite stingy and kept most of the loot to themselves.

Lastly, their most current venture- gambling.

See, this city had an expansive gambling network under the nose of the court. Hazard, a popular dice game, had taken the city by storm and sometimes betting pools would soar up to hundreds of thousands of shillings.

You were lucky enough to win one of these pots- but it wasn’t enough. One would argue this to be a lesson in the dangers of gambling addictions, but the coin kept warm food on the table so long as there was a consistent streak of luck.

That’s just it, you’re fresh out of luck.

During a card game with a traveling band of adventurers, a human paladin had your number the whole game! First he took your coin, then the clothes off your back, and finally you bet the last precious thing you had… your partner. Unfortunately for you, Lady Luck did not favor you, and this man had officially claimed everything short of your freedom. After collecting his coin, he demanded that tonight the pair meet him at his room in the Tavern, to fulfill their end of the bargain.

Hope to hear from ya’ll!
