## Diablo’s darts to destiny

*Lumi meanwhile skips around joyful in search of a game to play. She passes a mysterious looking booth with a curious gentleman standing out front, she zeros in on the colour of balloons and jumps at the chance to play a game*

*“AHHHH a new contender I see, please, please, miss, take your chance and see what lies behind the balloons of wonder”*

*Rules*

1. *3 darts for free as covered by festival, another 3 darts costs 2 silver*
2. *Each dart is a luck roll 1d20*
3. *Roll results*
	* *2-5 dart bounces off the balloon*
	* *6-10 single balloon pops and releases confetti*
	* *11-15 targeted single balloon pops and confetti released pops several nearby balloons, 1d10 roll determines how many extra*
	* *16-19 targeted single balloon pops and confetti released has spikes sheering through surrounding balloons, 1d20 roll determines how many extra*
	* *Natural 1 and your remaining darts turn to dust and you win nothing*
	* *Natural 20 and you win minimum a 4th dart*
	* *take a shot for a smaller balloon and potentially earn bigger rewards (roll at disadvantage)*
	* *too afraid to miss? you may aim for an easier target, less likely to release confetti sheering large quantities of balloons (roll at advantage)*
	* *results from any successful dart toss at discretion of “fate” (DM decides based on role play)*

*“I'll take a shot! I could use a plush or two and that bubble gun looks awesome!!” -Lumi. She picks up the first dart and takes careful aim at the middle of the board, she aims for a larger balloon to start. Focusing on a bright yellow perfectly round in shape.*

*As her dart flies true into the board, the yellow balloon explodes and the confetti shatters 5 surrounding balloons of all shapes, sizes and color.*

*“Well done!... grumbles beginners luck” -Diablo The last bit he says under his breath giving Lumi a side eye.*

*“Take the next dart and letter fly!!!” -Diablo announces excitedly, throwing his hands in the air to draw attention from the nearby crowds*

*Lumi picks up the second dart and next takes aim at a tiny blue, almost cone like shaped balloon. She knows its size makes the shot more difficult but the reward may be great if she can manage to strike it down.*

*“Tisk tisk tisk that's a shame madam” -Diablo says in a mocking tone “2 silver if you wish to try your chances again with another 3 darts.” He gives her a creepy smile with one hand extended to accept her coin*

*Lumi doesn't like losing especially to creeps, so she coughs up 2 silver coins to take another chance to win a grander prize. Her first shot again will be to a regular sized circular balloon, a cherry red in colour that reflects all the light around it so well she can't miss. Lumi’s determination results in a slaughter of* *that balloon, mashed up cherry it is, releasing blades of confetti across the board, anhilating almost all the balloons. She jumps for joy drawing in all the people around her and the crowd errupts into cheers. Meanwhile, Diablo is slouched in a corner of shadows twirling his moustache with one hand, before anyone takes notice he emerges from the darkness and into the light, a loud and tall ring leader.*

*“We have ourselves a game here folks!!” -Diablo*

*Lights from the booth dim onto Lumi and jeopardy equivalent music begins to play.*

*“Now miss, your shots have won you a plush of your choosing so long your dart hits at least one balloon on the board, no room for fail oooorrrrrrrr you can gamble with me, place your prize on the line, strike with that last dart and pop not just 1 but at least 3 additional surrounding balloons and win a bonus prize. You must commit to this option now before you throw. Pop only 1 balloon and your prize stays with me.” -Diablo*

*The surrounding crowds are cheering a mix of opinions at Lumi. The excitement and thrill of it all wins her over as she must know what the bonus prize shall be.*

*“You're on mister!!” -Lumi takes in a deep breath and aims at a medium size sparkling purple balloon. “Come oonnnnnnnnnn dart!” she thinks in her mind and once the dart leaves her hand it’s as if the breeze carried it swiftly and softly into the balloon target, almost mocking Diablo. The crowd erupts as confetti and sparks fly from the balloons in all directions. Diablo keeps his composure as the show must go on, so he takes the marketing opportunity.*

*“See folks!!! Anything is possible if its in the fate of the darts you choose! We have ourselves a winner of a large plush red panda and as a bonus prize \*drum roll randomly sounds from somewhere\* a bubble blaster 9000!! ...safe for most children and adult creatures” -Diablo. “Congratulations!”*
