Goat-ball is a team sport using a lopsided stuffed-goat ball and a random set of raised platforms, where offense requires three consecutive leaps-and-passes across four different platforms and defense intercepts and knocks opponents off. Players are eliminated by falling or being hit, with possession changing on ball-ground contact and victory achieved when all opponents are out. Drink-and-tell adds a circle-based storytelling mechanic with cheer or jeer outcomes and poison-like mead rules, while arts and crafts emphasize symbolic, nonliteral decoration and strong oral traditions.",{"@graph":69,"@context":114},[70,84,105],{"@type":71,"itemListElement":72},"BreadcrumbList",[73,77,79,82],{"item":74,"name":75,"@type":76,"position":8},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":78,"name":9,"@type":76,"position":14},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/",{"item":80,"name":25,"@type":76,"position":81},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/comic/",3,{"item":83,"name":65,"@type":76,"position":19},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/goat-ball-rules-and-gameplay/508984/",{"url":83,"name":65,"@type":85,"image":86,"author":91,"headline":65,"publisher":94,"fileFormat":97,"inLanguage":63,"description":67,"dateModified":98,"datePublished":99,"encodingFormat":97,"isAccessibleForFree":100,"interactionStatistic":101},"DigitalDocument",{"url":87,"@type":88,"width":89,"height":90},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/goat-ball-rules-and-gameplay/508984.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":92,"@type":93},"Patrick","Person",{"url":74,"name":95,"@type":96},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-16","2026-10-05",true,{"@type":102,"interactionType":103,"userInteractionCount":19},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":104},"ViewAction",{"@type":106,"mainEntity":107},"FAQPage",[108],{"name":109,"@type":110,"acceptedAnswer":111},"What determines whether a drink-and-tell participant remains in the competition?","Question",{"text":112,"@type":113},"A participant earns cheers (still in the game) or jeers (knocked out of competition but still a spectator) based on how entertaining the tale is, typically requiring a successful DC 15 Perform check.","Answer","https://schema.org",{"og:url":83,"og:type":116,"og:title":65,"og:site_name":95,"og:description":67},"article",{"robots":118,"canonical":83},"index,follow",{"doc_id":120,"site_id":62},508984,1791504146,{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":123},{"doc_id":120,"user_id":124,"nickname":92,"user_avatar":125,"doc_module":4,"category_id":24,"category_name":25,"doc_title":65,"doc_description":67,"doc_content":126,"file_id":127,"file_url":128,"file_type":129,"file_size":130,"view_count":19,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":8,"is_downloadable":8,"audit_status":8,"page_count":8,"language":131,"language_code":63,"site_id":62,"html_lang":63,"table_of_contents":132,"faqs":133,"seo_title":134,"seo_description":67,"update_tm":135,"read_time":4},549758146520,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/avatar/80002397d8c0411e94?_k=1775819394049821470","pin. Matches last for an indeterminate number of 1-minute rounds, with a referee counting out loud so the wrestlers know when their time is up. At the end of each round, the wrestlers break their clinch and have a few moments to rest before returning to the center of the circle.  \nParticipating in Wrestling: Goliath wrestling matches follow the grappling rules outlined on page 156 of the Player’s Handbook, except that making an attack of opportunity against an opponent who’s trying to start a grapple is considered cheating. Damaging an opponent in a wrestling match is considered cheating unless both wrestlers agree before the match begins to allow nonlethal attacks. Defeating a foe in a wrestling match important to the adventure earns experience just as any other combat would.  \nGoat-Ball: This team game uses a furry, misshapen ball made out of stuffed goat-hide—the more lopsided and lumpy the ball, the better. Goat-ball requires a dozen to two dozen platforms (usually boulders, logs, and tree stumps) raised above the ground in a random pattern. Two teams of four clamber onto adjacent platforms, and a referee runs out to place the goat-ball on a platform somewhere roughly equidistant from the two teams. The teams then leap from platform to platform, each trying to be the first to reach the ball.  \nWhichever team reaches the ball firstison offense. When a team is on offense, it tries to complete three consecutive passes involving teammates on four different platforms (in other words, you can’t just pass it back and forth three times; you have to leap from platform to platform) . If the team on offense completes three passes, whoever has the ball can try to hit an opponent with the thrown ball. The team on defense tries to intercept the ball and push its opponents off the platforms.  \nA player who falls offa platform (either because he missed a jump or because an opponent pushed him off) or gets hitby a ball is “out” and can’t participate until possession changes and the two teams trade offensive and defensive roles. Whenever the ball hits the ground (including when the player holding the ball touches the ground), possession changes—unless the ball hits the ground after a successful throw at an opponent, in which case the offense keeps the ball. A team wins if all its opponents have been knocked out of the game at the same time.  \nParticipating in Goat-Ball: The jumping and bull rush aspects of goat-ball use the usual D&D rules. Throwing a ball at an opponent is a ranged touch attack, and every nongoliath player takes a –4 penalty for nonproficiency because it’s almost impossible to get used to the misshapen goat-ball. Throwing a ball to an ally is likewise a ranged attack, except that Dexterity bonuses and penalties are reversed when calculating the target’s AC (in other words, it’s easier to throw the ball to a dexterous target, and harder to get a clumsy teammate to catch it) . To attempt an interception, you must be within 5 feet of the ball’s path and get a better result on your ranged attack roll than the thrower got on his ranged attack roll. Also, because the players aren’t fighting, they can share the same platform (and often the same square) without penalty. Winning a  \ngame of goat-ball is a challenge equal to the combined CRs of the losing team members, as long as success in the game is somehow relevant to the larger adventure.  \nDrink-and-Tell: A decidedly nonathletic contest, the game of drink-and-tell involves participants and spectators alike sitting in a circle. One participant produces a massive flagon of specially brewed mead, drinks from it, and then tells a tale. Depending on how entertaining the tale is, he’ll either hear cheers from the rest of the circle (meaning the participant is still in the game) or jeers (meaning the participant is now out of the competition but remains a spectator) . Then the flagon is passed clockwise around the circle; spectators merely pass it to their left, but participants drink fro","cbCaitUNRX6GpVmY","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaitUNRX6GpVmY","pdf",131140,"English","# Goat-Ball\n## Participating in Goat-Ball\n# Drink-and-Tell\n## Participating in Drink-and-Tell\n# Arts and Crafts","[{\"question\":\"What determines whether a drink-and-tell participant remains in the competition?\",\"answer\":\"A participant earns cheers (still in the game) or jeers (knocked out of competition but still a spectator) based on how entertaining the tale is, typically requiring a successful DC 15 Perform check.\"}]","Goat-Ball - Rules and Gameplay | PDF",1791233630]
