The Great Cookie Capers!

[Lord Windos]

(Alrighty.  Let me just pull out a box I can roll these dice in...and there we go.  Let's see what Lady Luck decides...)

Agent Dragonstrike starts with his rolls, hiding them from view so The Cookie Thief can't cheat.  

(5)(4)

Nine.  50% chance he busts if he rolls again.  He goes for it.  There's not much for him to risk here.

(2)

That totals 11.  Thief needs to get a total of 12 to win, or 11 to tie.

"Alright, I've done my rolls.  Now it's your turn."  He hands 5 dice to Windos.

First Two:
(3)(6)

Nine as well.  Another 50-50 shot at busting, but Thief doesn't know that Agent rolled an 11.  Half and half ain't so bad though, right?  Since he's such a skilled gambler, maybe it will turn out well for him...

(6)

Nope.  15.  That's a bust.

The agent smirks as he reveals his roll.  "Eleven.  You had a chance.  Can't say I didn't play fair now."  He winks.  Absol chuckles.  His master has NEVER lost that game before, and his opponents always have a fair shot at winning to boot.

*Seeing the results of the rolls, they could only shrug and give a good natured smile*

Well, I did say I would hold back, so I guess this is only my fault I suppose. Fate has decreed that you win this engagement, so who am I to argue against it? Beside, victory is only sweet when their is possiblity of tasting the bitterness of defeat.

*Picks up his glass of wine and refills it, taking another sip, before looking at Dragonstrike and gesturing at them*

Now, what question do you wish for me to answer? I'll honor the question in both letter and spirit, but remember: you only have one. Think carefully now.
