A 5e D&D campaign starting at 1st level in and around the city of Waterdeep in the Forgotten Realms.

Waterdeep: City of Splendours, seat of many thousand plots. Are they opportunities for success, or for an untimely demise?
Will the adventurers sit safely in their comfort zones? Or will they risk their all to carve out a slice of Realms history with their names on it? Puppet or puppeteer?

Regnet waits until all the shots have been consumed.

***
Assuming all the shots are consumed, a bewildering number of sidebets are cited. As no odds are offered, presumably all are at evens:
How many return alive
How many return not alive
Who gains the most scars
How many rooms are mapped
How many bounty ears are collected
What time the first returns (after the 24 hours)

======
Please advise advise who has consumed how many shots in total.

Sue will down his shot with anyone else who is going to drink it. He will then take healthy drinks of his ale.

At the mention of how many return alive or not alive Sue scoffs, "That is an easy bet."

He perks up at the bounty option. "What's the bounty on?"

"The usual. Goblinkin, ogres, giants," interjects the quiet one. "But good luck on getting ears from jellies, ghosts or beholders."
Bleys frowns at his companion, "Don't you dare worry the lady. Goblinkin, offline, ogres possibly. Zents too. The rest was his little joke." The noble stands and bows elegantly to Alecia.

Regnet adds quietly to Sue, "No offence intended to you," and smiles grimly.Continuing in a louder voice, "Any wagers on how many of these shots this tough fellow will take on?"


======
Will Sue consume any outstanding shots?

"Beholders?" She asks with a gasp, grabbing on the table and Nix for support, was that too much? She'd seen a few of the Goblins, that was all she could say, slimy little things, they were.. creepy. "Thank you, sorry that took me by suprise." She waves off the Shot with a single hand. "None for me, I.. Am permitted to drink but I find it dulls me too much. No offense to you Gentlemen but A Lady needs to protect herself."

Nix will take one shot and then settle on ale. No sense in getting completely waterlogged before going. he muses.

The shot is a double. Is Nix necking all of it?

Evenwood turns to Sue and says: Sue take it easy, we are counting on your brute strength as you are counting on my intelligence. The other ones are already slowing down.

Sue will snort/huff at Evenwood and grab the shot that was left by Jim, and down it.

Jim looks to the drinks and stares intently at the gentlemen. "Thank you for the drinks, please do not take offense but I fear I will not partake of the refreshments." Watching Sue toss back the shot meant for him he asks Sue in a level tone "Is this what you were to teach me?"

"At times, being able to hold the drink is a social aspect, not just a test of fortitude." He will wink at Jim.

He then thinks, how odd it is that he is more comfortable now that he has a "unit" again. Working as a team, with a common goal, and the addition of Woody to bring something a bit more familiar had greatly improved his mood.

"Ahh social aspects. Yes I suppose so" So saying, Jim grabs an available drink not bothering to check what he grabs and drains it.

Jim has consumed Alecia's double brandy.

"Five dragons says the big fella shows us that again! Any takers?" comes from the table behind Regnet.
