Written Option 1:
You can’t play on an empty stomach, nor can you play without performing your pre-game ritual. So when everything goes wrong and your player can’t get their usual pregame meal or perform their pregame ritual, your player looks to find something, anything to salvage the situation. An interesting, yet perhaps shady looking man comes by and offers your player a meal that will up their game and also offers to assist in their pregame ritual. Does your player trust their hungry gut and take up this interesting man on their offer? What meal do they ask for? What is your player’s ritual and how does the man assist them? What do they do if they don’t take the man up on the offer?

Tom Pedersen always believed in the power of routine. His pre-game ritual and meal were sacred. But today, everything was going wrong. The usual pre-game meal of fårikål, a traditional Norwegian dish of lamb and cabbage, was unavailable, and his pre-game ritual, which involved listening to a specific playlist while taping his stick in a precise pattern, was disrupted by a broken sound system.

Just as Tom was about to panic, a swedish-looking man approached him. The man claimed he could provide a meal that would boost Tom's game and assist with his pre-game ritual. Torn between desperation and caution, Tom decided to take a chance. He asked for fårikål, hoping the familiar taste would bring some comfort. Surprisingly, the man produced a steaming bowl of the dish, which Tom devoured eagerly.

And that is why Tom Petersen played so shit this season. Food poisoning deluxe. The only thing he produced the rest of the season was diarrhea..
