I have a strange feeling that the halfling may be more robust that it looks like. Maybe the rumours about halflings being arm-wrestling champions may not have been a rumour.
Adoven, you are very strong but I would still take him seriously.

The challenge seems to attract quite a crowd in the tavern. Every patrons gather around the troupe and a lot of the locals start betting on the outcome. Needless to say, the odds are extremely stacked against Roldo.
Still standing upright on the wooden stool by the table the halfing looks at Adoven and says "If you'd excuse me for an instant." Rummaging in his haversack, he takes out a small glass vial, uncorks it and drink its content. His eyes quickly flash with a golden light before returning to their normal colour. Leaning on the table, he puts his arm down ready for the big warrior. Adoven grabs the halfling tiny hand and one of the local declares the start of the challenge.
It doesn't take more than an instant that Adoven's arm is smashed on the table. The table breaks in half and the two competitors fall down to the ground. Standing up, Adoven look at his red, painful hand that was crushed as if by a Frost Giant. On the patrons' faces can be seem shock and surprise. Then everyone in the room burst out in laughter. Two locals help the winner up and everyone slaps him on his back.
Once the commotion is over, Roldo dusts his clothes and look at the adventurers and Adoven in particular. "I'm sorry big fella for pulling that bit of a trick on you. I must admit that it was mostly a publicity stunt. You see, I'm an alchemist by trade. I brew and sale potions for a living. With what just happened they'll be talking about me for days at the Keep." he says with a big smile on his face.

Lombdas
After all the dark hours that Lombdas recently went through, he finds amusing what just happened.
Waiter! Two pieces of pie for the big fellow here. He then looks at Adoven: Thanks, I needed to laugh!
He then turns to Roldo: Nice stunt. Is that all you have in your sleeves?

Roldo turns towards the elf and responds "No... I know many more tricks." with a mischievous smirk on his face. "I have potions that can make you breathe underwater, make you fly, that can make you young again. Or as strong as a giant, as you've seen; or give you the power of a mighty warrior. I require the aid of an experienced mage to create some of my most powerful potions but I have with me quite an interesting sample of my stock. Given time I can also identify any unknown potion you may have come across. A risky business for sure but the only way one can be sure about the nature of a discovered potion."

Adoven
Thank you elf man. I hungry. Adoven eats the hot pies, then asks the bar keep for some ale to wash it down. He then turns to the elf, and asks Your name elf man? What you here for?
