Puck kept his wits at the fruit stall, refusing to pay in hair, but failed the save and ate the fruit anyway, eating it happily. He became the party's translator the moment Orimene turned into a dragon, since only he understands her Draconic.
He won 20 silver off Hugo, charmed a guitar pick out of Clawson Blink, then lost the rest of the night to the hookah: one puff grew him to human size, the next dropped him into a sleep so deep the party leashed and steered him. He still got his fortune, befriended the finch Tim, and closed the night with a trapeze act and a sharp observation about the carnies.
Refused to pay in hair, offering two copper instead; failed the Wisdom save and ate the fruit, 'incredibly happy.' Spotted the vendor was gone (perception 15).
Played a card trick (15 with guidance) and won 20 silver.
Performed (9) for a guitar pick; told stories so Orimene could trade. Took a hookah puff (2) and grew to human size; a second knocked him out on a natural 1.
Carried in asleep; woke to his fortune — a great responsibility coming, lucky numbers 367, word of the day Bingo. Reverted to gnome size outside.
Befriended Tim the blue finch (performance 19) and received a sending stone to keep Tim in contact.
Took the trapeze (acrobatics 14), played Pip, and cast Minor Illusion: 'THE ONE AND ONLY EVER HARD.' Perception 20 — sensed the carnies speak from one script.
Snuck in with the party under Pass Without a Trace (stealth 29).
