"I can do it!" Deke says enthusiastically. "My fumball team says I got the best arm in Gundal!"
"You're our man, Deke," Rochibal says, patting him on the back. You all follow them into the crowd by the dartboard.A tall man with a shaven head and a leather vest looks at Deke a little dubiously, as if suddenly concerned for his ten shrin. "This is your guy?" he askes Rochibal, as if hoping that perhaps it were one of the other party members that was going to compete.
Rochibal nods confidently, so the man hands Deke a dart. Then he points to a messy line painted on the floor, about ten feet behind where your companion is standing. Deke looks excited, and you can almost taste the hot meal you've been so vividly picturing all night.
Deke walks to the back of the line, and you watch the attempts of the other contestants. None hit the bullseye, but all score high. When it's Deke's turn, you hold your breath, and he throws the dart as hard as he can. You can feel the breeze as it whizzes by!
"Bullseye!" the someone shouts. You can't see the dartboard for the pressing crowd, but you're too excited by the prospect of food to mind missing your companion's feat.
"What did I tell ya?" Deke asked, pumping his fists in the air and grinning, and he returns to your party. "Best arm in all of Gundal!"
You're all still congratulating him as the shaven-headed man grudgingly hands Rochibal a purse packed with shrin.
"Time to eat!" you shout for joy.
You gain 10 luck points, and 160 shrin.
