Chains still don't break, and you can feel the manacles start cutting into your skin a little bit (no damage yet, but any failures from this point on have the possibility of causing 1 HP worth of damage.)

Alyndra shakes her head at the obviously crazy man and removes the thieve's tools from the veil and begins going to work on her manacles.
OOC:
Masterwork is +2, correct?

Rolls

Disable Device - (1d20+11)

(7) + 11 = 18

OOC:
Yes. However, you are at a -2 because of your hands being manacled together. The masterwork tools negate that, basically.
Alyndra's nimble fingers begin going to work, and she can almost feel that she has the lock defeated...and then her hand slips.

She does note, though, that these locks are simple enough that they probably won't jam if she really messes up.
OOC:
That took about 30 seconds to do. Alyndra may try again.

Alyndra curses silently and begins to get back to work on the manacles.
OOC:
Can I just take 10 on this? If not, I'll roll for it below

EDIT: Nevermind, we're good lol

OOC:
Taking 10 won't beat the DC on it right now...but that doesn't really matter.
Closing her eyes in concentration, Alyndra goes back to work on the manacles, relying on her sense of hearing and touch to find the right positions on the tumblers. With a very satisfying *click*, she feels the lock open and is able to get her hands free.
OOC:
I'm only going to make you do one DD roll for each set of ankle restraints and manacles. WAAAY too many opportunities to screw things up for you...lol

You may NOW take 10 on every other manacle and ankle restraint, as getting rid of that "Restrained" negative puts you above the DC.

Seeing Alyndra freed, Magoldor's whispered chanting starts to get frenzied, punctuated by cackling. His eyes bulge from their sockets and his beard is flecked with spittle.

The scarred man shall usher forth an age of warlords and the return of the horned one.
The raven shall mark a world of darkness and an end to the suffering of the faithful.
The mountain shall weep with molten fury, and the seas will run red with the blood of the usurpers.

Alyndra makes her way around, unlocking the others as she goes and taking one of the daggers and a component pouch from the veil for herself, "Now, you may have what we agreed upon," she says, and hands out the gear that they called for earlier.
OOC:
You may now take what you want from what's left in the veil:

Dagger
a bullseye lantern (full, lit, shuttered)
50 ft coil of hempen rope
Sacks of needed spell components (worth less than 1 gp)
common clothes in PC's sizes
Window (2ft by 4ft by 2ft deep)
potion of Cure Light Wounds
100 GP
a warhammer
Silver Unholy Symbol of Asmodeus.

Freed of his bonds, Magoldor reverently closes his hand around the symbol of his dark god. Surprisingly this quiets his raving for the moment, but there is exultation in his eyes. He hesitates a moment before grasping the warhammer, an infernal invocation on his fevered lips.
OOC:
Just making sure: is the war hammer meant for Magoldor? Wouldn't want to hog the stuff.

OOC:
You claimed it earlier and no one argued, so go ahead!
Sep 8, 2016 4:57 pm
I take the set of common clothes and spell components, and attempt to grab the potion of healing and 25gp.

I am unsure of what will happen tonight, but if the group disperses I want to have a fighting chance. I immediately change into the common clothes and place the items I've taken into the pockets.

Alyndra hands over the clothing and the components, but refuses to give up the potion or gold, "I'll hold on to those, thank you very much!"
Sep 8, 2016 5:08 pm
"Suit yourself. What next?" I couldn't care less if the other two make it out of here, but this one I won't let out of my sight. If she is killed by the guards or attempts to betray us, all bets are off and I will need everything she has on her.
Sep 8, 2016 5:17 pm
OOC:
Magoldor got the hammer and unholy symbol...the casters got the spell components, one of them has the gold and the potion...Phil, would you like Harrison to have the other dagger, or do you want to use the ankle shackles as a makeshift flail (for now)

OOC:
Alyndra didn't let Xharin take the potion or gold. She wants to keep that for herself as insurance
Sep 8, 2016 7:13 pm
OOC:
Can I take both? You can always throw a dagger...
Harrison frowns at what is left, but notes the behavior of his fellows. "Clothes..." he mutters wishing he had some actual armor.
Sep 8, 2016 7:18 pm
OOC:
Of course you can take both.
You have freed yourself from the chains that bound you. You still stand in a locked cell, with only your wits and the limited equipment you received from the veil. It's been about an hour since the guard made his round. What is your next step, villains?

Harrison saying the word "clothes" reminds Magoldor that it might be a good idea to put some on. "What about our large friend?" he says as he pulls on some breeches.
Sep 8, 2016 7:27 pm
"Keys?" asks Harrison "Surely we must get out of this cell. Are the means to leaving our cells in that magic cloth?"
OOC:
For some reason, I thought we were all in different cells. Is that not the case?
Sep 8, 2016 7:30 pm
Alyndra approaches the door and attempts to reach the lock to see if she can pick it.

While the others converse, I steady my mind and reach outwards towards anything that vibrates with a magical aura in the vicinity.
OOC:
Casting Detect Magic. P.S. The four of us are in the same cell. The big guy is in a separate cell.
