@typhlosion this actually reminds me of one of the BEST D&D stories I have (okay, Pathfinder).
@Leucrotta please elaborate
@typhlosion Hopefully we'd entertain drunk Vikings for hours, with the party's fighters nearby in case.
We literally bust in the front door, I start doing charismatic gnome patter and promptly roll something ehh like a 12.
Then the cleric shows up and bellows at the top of her lungs "AWRIGHT YE WHORESON BASTARDS! WE'RE HERE TAE GI YE THE GREATEST NIGHT O MUSIC YE'VE EVER EXPERIENCED!"
So we didn't successfully con drunk Vikings, but at least our DM ruled that our party got a surprise round!
@Leucrotta oh my god that's amazing
