Scene III: The Purple Belt Saloon (Again)

Post by Stormbringer » Wed Jun 04, 2025 8:05 pm

The gang, after returning successfully from Horsehead Ranch, cash in their bounties and go on a shopping spree, buying some shiny new guns and supplies.

Then they head to their favourite place in Palace, the Purple Belt Saloon...

1. What's everyone eatin' 'n' drinking tonight?

Prices are:

Tea (milk optional) - 1s/pot )
Beer - 1s/glass 1s/bottle (1 drink)
Whiskey - 2s/shot 8s/bottle (8 drinks)
Gin - 2s/glass 6s/bottle (6 drinks)
Wine - 6s/glass 20s/bottle (4 drinks)
Meal, slop - 1s (Check Grit or become Miserable [Food poisoning])
Meal, basic - 2s
Meal, good - 4s
Meal, extravagant - 12s


2. Also, what rooms did you hire tonight?

Room, decrepit - 1s/night (Check Wits or become Miserable [Poor sleep])
Room, basic - 2s/night
Room, good - 4s/night
Room, extravagant - 12s/night

You can also have a hot bath filled in your room for an additional 1s


3. Once you've chosen your food, drink and accommodation for the night, it's time for you to come up for a name for your posse!

Each of you roll 4d6 (looking for roll numbers, not totals), and we'll choose the best results!

My fire is more than can be made with forests,
My state more base than are the basest valleys;
I wish no evenings more to see, each evening;
Shamed, I hate myself in sight of mountains,
And stop mine ears, lest I grow mad with music.

Doc will spend the remainder of his hard-earned on a beer, basic meal and basic room.

Lol I read that completely backwards, it was a 6, 5, 2 and 1

If the order matters, I think it went 5, 6, 1, then 2

These rolls represent ideas the characters come out with for their gang name while talking over their meal.

Doc suggests "The Golden Thirty-Three!"

Cumflutter suggests "The Bean Bunch!"

Weirdly, this is an actual possible result on the table.


Cadaver Kid suggests "The Rogue Folk!"

Not gonna lie, unless the new guy comes up with a proper banger, I'm leaning towards The Bean Bunch here...

I could live with that. And if things get real gnarly, we can become the Mean Bean Bunch!

If Doc keeps spending all his money on guns and explosives rather than sustenance, they could be the Lean Bean Bunch!

I'm liking the versatility of the name lol.

Scrancher will go for the same options as the Cadaver Kid.

I rolled a 2, 4, 3 and 1.

And if we somehow become environmentalist vegans, we could be the Green Bean Bunch…

I’ll stop now.

Scrancher, the new kid, says "How about...The Gunsmoke Crew!"
