Editing The Metal Bard Band (section)

== The Band Plays for the Elf Queen ==

>The party has just become famous around the world

>Tales of their unique brand of music spreads to every corner of the world

>Thing is, those that haven't actually been to a concert don't really know what kind of music they're playing, just that they're very famous and very good.

>They get an invitation from the Elf Queen to play for her birthday party

>Elves are expecting high-class maestros, playing the lute or something like that.

>Instead, they find a bunch of grungy looking guys kicking in the palace door and carrying these weird instruments.

>Elves decide to give them a chance, at least.

>Party sets up

>Begin playing a very loud song that pretty much amounted to "BURNING TREES, SCORCHING LANDS, MURDERMURDERMURDERMURDER"

>I roll a % die with a chart I had ready to see what incidents they cause

>Fucking 1, which means EVERYTHING on the chart happens

>The song is so loud it shatters glass and blows back everyone's hair in the front row

>All the windows shatter

>The ice sculpture falls down and hits a table, launching the contents across the room

>Food lands all over the queen and her nobles

>Waiter walking past slips on the spilled food and the plate he's carrying goes flying into the air

>The platter gonks the assassin I had hiding in the rafters on the head, he falls head first and gets knocked out. The guards later carried him off.

>End of the song

>The whole room is a disaster now, looks like a tornado ran threw, backed up, then ran threw again

>"So how did we do?"

>Oh right, they were supposed to roll perform

>Got something over 30

>The whole room is dead fucking silent.

>And then the queen starts the slow clap

>Everyone joins in

>The queen finds them later and tells them that was the best performance she'd ever heard

>She later funds an academy for aspiring metal musicians

>Metal becomes a favorite among elves

>The band writes their new national anthem
