Bowling ball in hand, you stride into the alley like you own the place.
| Let's roll |
You step up to one of the few bowling lanes that has been kept free of ancient debris. There's a set of pins standing at the ready at the other end of the lane, and you've got this bowling ball, so... why not?
The stone ball is heavier than you expected, and the pins turn out to be made of stone as well, but you knock a few of them over, and clean up most of the rest on your second attempt. As the ancient pin-setting machinery grinds into action, you hear an audible sneer from the next lane. It turns out to be a smoky, ghostly apparition, with glowing red eyes, holding a scorched and blackened bowling ball.
"So, you think you can roll, ese?" the spirit smirks. "Let me show you how a real man does it." He winds up and releases his ball, which rumbles down the lane, arcing gracefully to smash directly into the pins. Strike!
The ghost does a very satisfied little dance, then turns to sneer at you again. "You ain't got what it takes, pendejo," he smirks.
Annoyed, you resolve to show this jerk what for, but the ball-return seems to have mislaid your bowling ball. Looks like you'll have to scrounge up another one.
You gain ??-27-?? Muscleboundness. You gain ??-24-?? Magicalness. You gain ??-22-?? Smarm.
