Tales have been told of Erevan Ilesere's infamous win in a game of dice with the other trickster deities of Abeir-Toril. In a tavern known as "Three notes to the wind" in Zazzespur, gathered the avatars of Brandobaris, Baravar Cloakshadow, Mask, Vhaeraun, Vergadain, and Erevan Ilesere. The stakes up for bet were followers, domains and profiles. In a 24 hour game the winner takes all. From 12 midnight to 12 midnight the next day the avatars played dice and won and lost many things. On the strike of Midnight, as the game was about to end, during the last die roll, Erevan declared a Midnight Gambol and rolled a double zero. The room erupted in absolute chaos as the other gods were slammed into the ceiling by anti-gravity, and then slammed into the floor as gravity was renewed. The food was turned into butterflies, the alcohol was turned into smoke and the tables, chairs and dishware sprung to life and started dancing. Erevan's avatar burst out laughing uncontrollably as the other deities tried to recover and see through the haze of chaos. The Avatar of Mask threw several daggers at Erevan which were tossed aside with a mere wave of his hand. The avatar of Brandobaris snuck behind Erevan and tried to backstab his avatar, only to pass through an image of him. The avatar of Baravar Cloakshadow cast a True seeing spell and realized that Erevan wasn't even in the room. The avatar of Vergadain immediately pounced on the Platinum and gold coins that fell on the floor after the table started dancing, while the Avatar of Vhaeraun just smiled and bowed before snapping his fingers and disappearing in a puff of toxic gas in the shape of a dark mask.
At that exact moment Erevan's avatar burst through the front door of the tavern and dived into a headlong roll, scooping up the dice and crashing through the window behind the bar. "I won, you all lose, and I'll see you all next year for another game."
That very same day, Erevan's avatar was drinking feywine at a elven tavern in Silverymoon and asked the owner to sit down to a game of dice. The owner, a young moon elf cleric of Erevan by the name of Curudin accepted the bet and played dice for many hours, imbibing many potent drinks and causing a few fights in the process of playing the game. In the end, the moon elf cleric won the final roll and demanded payment from the green elf before him. The green elf smiled a knowing smirk and threw the dice across the table at Curudin. "That is your payment my child."
Curudin stood up from his seat and drew both his swords while kicking the table aside in one swift movement. The green elf just chuckled and transformed into a Quickling and darted out the front door only to disappear on the busy streets of Silverymoon. Curudin walked back to the table to set it back in place and noticed the two die on the floor. Once he picked up the dice he immediately understood the magic within them. "I could start a thieves guild with these dice." he said to himself. "maybe something more."
Just then, a flamboyant copper elf walked into the tavern, covered in mud and dust. "I need a pint of Mithral Hall mead and a good game of dice." He threw his cloak onto a rack by the door and bowed. "I'm Laeirlefain Starleaf, and I'm looking for a fight, a wench, and a game of dice... and it doesn't have to be in that order." he said while laughing a jolly laugh.
"I have all three." said Curudin as he pulled out a chair at the same table he had just kicked and offered the copper elf to take a seat.
