Ooh, ooh! Theme night at the Cantina!

*Dogscoff activates his personal theme-o-matic, and immediately disappears, only to reappear a moment later dressed as a medievel serving wench.

*After admiring his ample bosum for a minute, he cranks the theme-o-matic right back round to "male" and then some more. He activates it again and appears in a mean looking armoured dragon suit, complete with snout-mounted flamethrower and powered wings. Attempting to stay in character, he then issues a not-particularly medievel challenge in a very un-dragonish way:
"Right, any knights in here? Outside, now. I'll shove yer bloody lances up yer ramparts..."

Damn, missed 'Tig's second post there. Famous historical figures, eh?

*Dogscoff activates the theme-o-matic again and reappears as Genghis Khan. He immediately begins rampaging around the Cantina, chasing the wench-outfitted FBWs and slaying anyone he doesn't like the look of.

Growltigga spots Genghis Khan aka Dogscoff rampaging around the cantina and thinks "ha ha, a worthy opponent at Last", he activates his theme-o-matic and turns into Alexus Constantinos, Lord of the Western Realm, Knight Marshall of Constantinople and Slayer of the Turks - arrayed in his glorious plate mail, Growltigga proceeds to chase Genghis round the cantina, swiping at him with his sword and yelling such choice battle cries such as "have at ye you furry hatted rapscallion", "stand still and let me decapitate you" and "Last one in the shower is a poofter"

*Pursued by 'Tigga, Dogscoff races to the Cantina's doors and opens them to reveal his Mongol horde. Assorted sea creatures and Barry are wearing furry hats and riding other assorted sea-creatures, who in turn are paired off and dressed up pantomime-style to look like Mongol horses. The chase reverses, and 'Tigga can be seeen howling and fleeing a wet and scaly yet furry host.

Tigga, pursued by the venemous mongol horde, runs to the kitchen door of the cantina and throws them wide open, arrayed in all their martial glory and standing on the lino in between the fridge and the aga, are the serried ranks of Byzantine military might ready to back-up the Brave Defender of the Faith....

The Mongol Horde shudders to a complete stop as it see the mailed ranks of Trebizond Archers, Armoured Infantry, Mailed Kataphraktoi and Horse Archers and the Battle Standards held by two armour plated FBW's chanting "cometh and haveth a go if thoust thinkst one is hard enough"..

Barry takes off his mongol hat, puts on a byzantine warhelm, pretends that he was the advance guard and proceeds to sit on the giant squid.

The chase reverts to type with the mongol horde being pursued by a yelling happy Growltigga and the armoured legions of the East Roman Empire

HALLLLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Note: Growltigga hopes that no-one notices that the martial might of the Byzantine Empire actually comprise legions of killer mongoose dressed up in string vests sprayed with silver paint to look like mail, and that the horse on which the raccoon kataphratoi are mounted are actually bicycles with comedy horse costumes draped over them....

"Mailed Kataphraktoi " as apposed to an "un mailed" Kataphraktoi

Gryphin, stop being pedantic, they could have been dressed in full field plate (as per the 13th and 14th century cataphracts) or full mail (as per the 11th and 12th century cataphracts)

Stop? hey, it is the only thing I'm good at.
(well, not including instigating things)

*Raging Deadstar sighs as the 5th table he has sat down on has been trampled on by Growltiggas Byzantine military and dogscoffs mongol hordes. Getting rather worried about his personal safty, also growltiggas mood when he sees the costs of replacing the tables, he won't be pleased. Raging Deadstar pulls out his handy 12 gauge shotgun and fires it into the air, both hordes stop and Raging Deadstar leads them outside the cantina

The parking Lot is now cleared, mainly by barry's tail and at the far corner is a lump of scrap metal, previously most regulars ships, the two armies take their places and begin to charge, raging deadstar dives quickly into the cantina and watches as the battle unfolds*
