                                                                          GAMES

The games of chance are monitored by the staff to ensure that they remain safe, and to prevent cheaters from taking an unfair advantage. It is a well known fact that magic is used to determine if someone is trying to use something that will give them an unjust benefit. Get caught trying to use bracers of strength or a potion of luck to enhance your chances to win will get you fined. If you get caught, the fine is 10 gold. Those who refuse to pay the fine could find themselves banned from participating in all betting events or even worse.

This round is played using a single throw until there is a winner.

                                                                             PIT FIGHTS

From time to time the inn conducts matches between noted personalities who excel in brawn, or weapon finesse. These matches draw quite a crowd. Sometimes even guests wish to get involved and show their prowess by asking the inn to sponsor a match between them and a noted personality or even a dangerous creature. More oft than naught, guests will outright challenge another guest. Most know of how the management frowns upon unsanctioned brawls and personal fights in the inn, so these challenges are kept respectable by having the inn sanction the fight. If both parties agree to such an encounter, the inn will sanction the fight the same as any other event.

Unlike other events that the inn sponsors, these events are not heavily restricted. A challenger is allowed to bring the best they have to the table, including magic. The only rule is that the inn isn’t damaged in any way during the bout.

Most events of this nature are held outside, since they draw large crowds, but some are held indoors in the pit fight area.
