The Howling Goblin Alehouse - 3 Strikes

Three Strikes is a traditional Goblin drinking game played by bandits and raiders in a local tavern after a day of scheming and thieving. Every player puts 50GP, or 50GP worth of treasure into the pot. The goal is to reached 20 points without failing 3 Constitution Saving Throws and either falling unconscious and getting pinned up on the wall to be a humanoid dart target, or throwing up and getting kicked out of the bar. Whoever reaches 20 points first wins the pot and bragging rights. On the particular night that the party rolls into The Howling Goblin Alehouse, there have been no wins and the pot is heavy with loot. Players must simply speak with the bartender and pay the fee to begin playing. They choose between the 4 drinks offered on the menu.

The betting pot contains the following:

Ring of Roses, Horseshoes of the Zephyr, 2 Gold Rings, 1 Silver Bracelet, 50GP worth of magic ink, 500GP, 3 Bomb Arrows, Fishing Tackle, 2 Hunting Traps, a Spyglass, a map of a Chronomancy hideout with a riddle, and 1 Forgery Kit
