{{Variant table|Condition = Taking Sides at a Brawl|Condition alias = Taking Sides|Effect = Your place in all this|Condition type = Text
|Value 0 = 0 |Effect 0 = In short, it is clearly time for someone to sort things out. Or, at the very least, show the combatants how to settle a dispute ''properly''.
|Value 1 = 1 (Order)|Effect 1 = You're looking to restore the crates to their proper owner. And who can say: perhaps they'll be kind enough to let you keep a finder's fee?
|Value 2 = 2 (Downtrodden)|Effect 2 = You're hoping to see the deserving workers get away with these crates. It might make up for their absurd rates of pay.
|Value 3 = 3 (Unlawful)|Effect 3 = You can hardly pass up the chance to aid in a good heist.
|Value 10 = 10 (Yourself)|Effect 10 = Never mind whose crates these were. They'll be yours, by the time you're finished with this lot.}}
{{Variant table|Condition = Brawling with Dockers|Effect = Current Scene|Condition type = Text
|Value 1 = 1-8 |Effect 1 = You've convinced the Persistent Dock Porter that these crates are no concern of his – the hard way.
|Value 9 = 9-14 |Effect 9 = You've sent a Long-faced Overseer to the rightabout.
|Value 15 = 15-19 |Effect 15 = You've stacked half a dozen cabin boys like cordwood.
|Value 20 = 20-24 |Effect 20 = You've speedily and forcibly removed the Dedicated Dock Walloper from your path.
|Value 25 = 25-29 |Effect 25 = You have left a pair of muleteers sleeping off their discomfort in a rubbish heap.
|Value 30 = 30-34 |Effect 30 = You've dropped the Garrulous Drinker right off the end of the pier.
|Value 36 = 36-39 |Effect 36 = A costermonger with a tray of (slightly desiccated) pepper cap mushrooms darts around the outside of the brawl, keen not to be involved.
|Value 40 = 40-44 |Effect 40 = A crowd of drinkers come running out of the Blind Helmsman to watch the fight. Then they realise that this is no place for onlookers, and crowd back inside.
|Value 46 = 46-49 |Effect 46 = Three or four inebriated persons land in the water: a very satisfying sequence of splashes and shrieks.
|Value 50 = 50-53 |Effect 50 = A whole team of Burly Longshoremen were considering involving themselves in the battle. You've put a stop to that.
|Value 56 = 56-58 |Effect 56 = You've dispensed with both of the Twin Ballast Heavers.
|Value 60 = 60-64 |Effect 60 = A man with a cage full of sorrow-spiders edges nervously around the outside of the fray. "Good show!" he shouts encouragingly. "Excellent footwork!"
|Value 65 = 65-69 |Effect 65 = You've cracked open several crates, through the expedient of flinging your enemies into them.
|Value 70 = 70-79 |Effect 70 = You've chased away an Arkwright's Second Assistant.
|Value 80 = 80-84 |Effect 80 = You've driven a crowd of zailors to look for their entertainment elsewhere.
|Value 85 = 85-89 |Effect 85 = You've eliminated an energetic circus-let of LBs. They run off squeaking into the night.
|Value 90 = 90-94 |Effect 90 = You've disarmed a Clay Watchman. He is confused. This doesn't happen to him often.
|Value 95 = 95-99 |Effect 95 = You have neutralised a Clay Watchman entirely.
|Value 100 = 100-109 |Effect 100 = You've fought off a Dark-Eyed Captain. She really had no business concerning herself with a cargo once it was on land, did she?
|Value 110 = 110-149 |Effect 110 = You've tipped a bleary-eyed Admiral into the drink. He's decided to take his chances with the Drownies and swim for the opposite shore rather than encounter you again.
|Value 150 = 150+ |Effect 150 = You've brought down every one of your opponents. You're the only one left standing.}}
