Your name is Joi. If you're going to find out any information regarding this so called, "Cavern of Fortune" you've been hearing about lately...

...Then you might as well start at the local bar. The easiest way to get people talking is with alcohol, of course.

Try to look natural, or at least not "i'm here to interrogate drunkards". Get a weak drink or something that you just need to sip every now and then.

You suppose your best course of action would be to talk to your favorite barkeep, Malachi.

You ask Malachi how he's doing, flexing that hefty charisma stat.

"..Thought I told you not to come back here Joi. Not after what happened last time."

You... suppose no amount of charisma will undo the scene that you caused the last time you got shit faced in here. It's been months, but Malachi still seems sour about it.

He's a pretty sour guy.

Look as long as it didn't involve a yo-yo and a pineapple I'm sure whatever you did couldn't have been that bad.

Anyway it doesn't appear he's booting you out, so as long as you remain sober there shouldn't be a problem with you chatting up other patrons.

You get kind of slutty when you're drunk.

Yes, and water is kind of wet.
If you're not conscious of this part of yourself, I suggest that you do some soul-searching before you go fortune-searching.

No. 742602 ID: ca0e20

And did you apologize? It's probably how you should open up this interaction here if you want to ask for info. Maybe even be prepared to do a chore or something if he doesn't think the apology is enough. You can also mention that he's your favorite barkeep, depending on whether you think flattery will get you anywhere or not. Or rather what he thinks of flattery.

>>742597
Whatever. Soul searching happens on it's own on adventures!

Out of curiosity, how many shots did you drink to get that slutty? Three? No wait, two?!

Ask the bartender if you left anything important that night. Clothes don't count.

Your flashback is quickly pulled back to reality with Malachi looming over you.

"Do you have any idea how much of your mess I had to clean up? Spilled drinks, broken glass. And all of the goddamn... FLUIDS."

You check your stats really quickly, just to be sure.

Now probably isn't the time to reminisce on your escapades. You tell Malachi you're sorry, and that you didn't mean to cause any trouble. You tell him that you won't drink, and that you're only here to gather information.

"Did I mention you're my favorite barkeep, Malli'? And a really good friend?"

He gives you a hard look, like you hurt his feelings.

"Yeah, whatever Joi. You can hang out in here and talk to people. But if I see one drop of alcohol hit your lips, you're out. Got it?"

Whose drink does that belong to? lets ask that person some questions about the Cavern of Fortune.

Ignore drinks obtain knowledge. Not only would it probably cause you to lose focus on our objective it would get you kicked out of the bar, and what kind of adventurer gets themselves kicked out of the bar before they find the knowledge they seek. Plus, think of how it would ruin things between you and Malachi if he had to boot you after you said you'd stay clean.

Who else is around?

If no one, ask Malachi about the Cavern of Fortune.
