Improv Tabletop

In the middle ring of Ba Sing Se, behind the facade of a friendly little pet shop, a trio of Daofei scoundrels plot their rise to usurp the Earth King. They may be small now, but maybe a little extra turf can help them earn some clout... Tonan hits the streets. Weiyong hits the books. Ciwei hits it off with a special guest.

Our scoundrels have their sights on a new target—The Cabbage Garden, a soup kitchen being run by a cult headed by Tonan's rival, Neliao the Gardener. Attacking a soup kitchen is a bad look, but The Gardener's intentions aren't exactly altruistic. How can the Masked Spirits convince people they're in the right?... Weiyong starts planning a smear campaign of his own. Tonan pulls back the mask ever so slightly. Ciwei accepts some surprising offers.
