"Ser Daeron Wildfyre!" A cheery knight with some bland sigil Daeron doesn't recognize shouts in greeting. Word of the Tourney's Masters rather obvious error has spread through the camps like the name Ser Daeron had taken for himself. Even most knights tended to be avoid him, but not this one, this one wears a friendly smile and a straightforward appreciative manner. "My friends and I had a mind to start drinking to Lord Piggy's memory now, so that we're in a jolly good mood when he's skewered and ready for roasting. You should join us for a cup, ser. They'll be awestruck, I guarantee it!" Shenanigans: 6d6k4 14 Just a fan wanting to ingratiate himself with the man about to skewer himself a vile boar. Nothing sinister, nothing sinister at all.

He smiled and basked in the attention.
"You honor me ser, but I must decline any drinks for now. Just like with a boar's hunt, it's wiser to save the drinking for later so that one's aim must be true.
However, I will gladly meet your friends, Ser?.."

"Ser Bryce of Ashford, though it would seem to me as if I have served all over but not the lord whose streets and alleys I grew up with, served him well enough at the Prince Pass in the levy, or maybe myself most of all, I speared the horse of some Dornish lordling and slit his throat, took his helm, figured that the fancy gold on it would fetch a good price if I lived, and the good steel might improve my chances of living through the battle." This man must be popular telling stories around the campfires. "Lived I did, and good price it fetched, The Oak Lord gave me ten dragons for it, and a knighthood besides when he learned that it was me who killed him. Got to buy horse and armor though, but I guess that was what the gold was for!" His friends appears to be some hedge knights he met on the road, Lem, Wat, Robb. Short names, the sort the smallfolk would name their children. Bryce might be in someone service, though he would likely have mentioned that if so. The introduction he gives Daeron is almost fitting for a king, less all the titles. None of them have met a Great Bastard before, or anyone with the dragon hair, they have all seen Ser Daemon of course, Lem thought him was Prince Breakspear at first. They also insists that Daeron must at least share a cup with them, Ser Bryce suggests maybe half a cup to be on the safe side? Robb claims that he never enters combat sober to which Bryce jabs right back that if he wasn't sober he'd piss himself, break ranks and be hanged as a deserter. A great knight like Ser Daeron Wildfyre would surely have no need of such liquid courage, but half a cup so that he might partake in one toast? They have many to make, one to Ser Daemon Blackfyre's victory over the foul Ser Rennifer, one to Ser Daeron's good fortune in sticking it to the pig, or rather into him, that and many more, but for those they'll have to empty Daeron's cup on his behalf.
Intrigue? Half a cup won't affect his aim and seat, will it? Initiative: 3d6 10ID: 13 DR: 6 (must be a typo, he is obviously friendly) Composure: 14

Daeron begins to beguile the small group with stories from the Black Tourney, such as how he faced down Otho Bracken, while still politely refusing their offers to drink. Perhaps afterwards with his grand ransom he could buy them all many rounds?

“Well alright! Half a cup can’t hurt, it’s not like there’s much that Lord Piggy can do against me in a joust. Hell, I’m surprised that his horse can even make it down the entire length of the lists with him atop.”
Daeron holds a cup out to the men, to fill partially with ale. What’s the worst that could happen?
Well shit..

That's the spirit! The men cheers and clink their cups, sticking it to the pig seems the appropriate one to start with. Half a cup can't hurt, or make a man drowsy with the right additions. More Shenanigans: 5d6k4 17 Nothing to see here, nothing to see at all. Nothing but a pinch of sweetsleep primary/secondary: 2#5d6 25 14 2#5d6 17 17So primary effect is 2 DoS and 0 DoS, for -2D on cunning tests (fades off after unconsciousness is over), might make him take more than half a cup, who knows? Secondary effect is 2x1 DoS for 8 hours of blissfull sleep (hits after five minutes). Sweet dreams of skewered pigs afoot?

Laughing and toasting with his new friends, Daeron felt his eyes getting heavy as he neared the bottom of his cup. "Ish thi the harvesht eel?" was all he managed to slur as the half-cup of surprisingly powerful alcohol slowed his senses, but a pinch was all it took to quench the flames of the fierce dragon. Moments afterwards he slumped onto the filthy ground of the tavern in a dreamless slumber. Surely his new friends wouldn't just leave him there or steal him away to their camp, he had an important joust to make it to!

Lord Willem was furious. Somehow one of his knights had been drawn against Lord Eldon, yet he was no where to be found. The shame of one of his knight forfiting to that pig was unbearable. If one of them didn't find the bastard, then they would all be on latrine duty. Now where could his cousin have gone?

Locating Daeron proves to be the easy part, he is found soundly asleep, his head resting upon a table in some ale-tent, with no amount of slapping or cold water appearing to have any sort of effect. Though otherwise he seems fine, but with a missing coin purse. The Barkeep says he had a drink with some knights and suddenly dropped under, a bit quick if you ask him, but there's always something. Upon being brought back, Marei insist on pouring a wasting potion down his throat, if it is what she suspects, she doesn't want to take any chances, though she judges that it's just sleep, not death, that haunts him.
Someone could wear his armor and ride his horse, but if Eldon were to demand to see the face of his opponent, something he very well might do should he have reason to suspect it could not be Daeron, that might lead to double embarrassment.
-Daeron can spend a DP to have the effect of the wasting potion apply retroactively (+5 passive endurance will make the sweetsleep fail), but at -1D to jousting tests if the Wasting Potion inflicts Penalty dices (The +5 to passive endurance won't be applying against that). -Addam can borrow Daeron's horse and armor and pose as him, taking a -1b training penalty on fighting and animal handling tests. Must succeed on a TN 16 disguise test (can gain full bonus from taking extra time) to pass muster, can gain assist from Roland (but Roland being honor-bound probably means it's quite possibly best for Roland not to know), simple failure means the plan is wisely abandoned, critical failure means Eldon reveals the ruse, getting Addam disqualified with a -1 Chivalry on top (And Daeron forfeits).

If I pass TN 16 Eldon won’t ask to revival my face?
