OOC:
Sorry for taking so long to respond. A friend had congestive heart failure and a massive pulmonary embolism recently and had to go to ICU. He's okay, but it was a close call.
The guardsmen that Zirah engages in conversation are happy to demonstrate a few maneuvers. Meanwhile, inside the barracks, Breg and Lunori have slipped inside and are looking for Abberbaugh's bunk. Fortunately, the footlocker are emblazoned with the names of the individuals to whom they belong, so finding his is easy. The footlocker is securely locked.

Thoughts and prayers for your friend.
Our green-cloaked ranger stoops low at the footlocker.He observes the lock momentarily, before brandishing his tools and going to work!

Aldezar allows the beautiful woman do all the distracting, her just being here, now with men showing off for her, is plenty to keep things busy. He just hangs back, casually watching her like everyone else, but really keeping an eye on everyone but her.

Breg attempts to open the footlocker, but only succeeds in breaking one of his picks!

Erg, stammers our green-cloaked ranger!
Well…anyone else care to try, else I can try breaking the lock?
OOC:
Can I otherwise simply take a ten, for a 13? Dunno if that’d help.
How many picks do I have left, for further lock picking madness?

OOC:
You only broke the one, and I assume that you have spares in your tool kit. Most thieves would. A 13 will not do it, I'm afraid.

Lunori doesn't lookvery happy.

"Sorry, my mother always forbade me to open locks, so ... I do not know how to do it."

"I am also untrained" Eril added to the lock picking conversation. "But we should try to hurry, I could try to bash the lock open?"

Breg rolls up green-cloaked sleeves, and attempts to break open the locker!

"Or I suppose you could do it" Eril said, watching Breg attempt to break into the locker.

With a sound that you are certain alerts the entire quarter, the locker is broken into. Inside are two uniforms of the army, two sets of civilian clothing, a pair of worn boots, and a folded note. The message is written in poorly-spelled Common. It says "Don fergit the 5 GPS ya owes me!" It's signed Grosh One-Ear.

Breg pockets the contents, and says, Let’s go, moving quickly towards the nearest exit - even if it’s a convenient window!

The group quickly leaves the barracks by the door through which they entered. Seeing them emerge from the corner of her eye, Zirah wraps up her conversation with the guard and regroups with the others a short distance away.

Aldezar spots the others leaving from their search in the barracks. He does not move right away, continuing to watch Zirah. He also checks to see if the guard with the skull tattoo is still in the area somewhere. He then regroups with the others to see what they have learned.

Lunori's ears flattened as a sharp hiss escaped his lips, the lock's cacophony reverberating through the quiet hall.

So much for stealth, he thought, his tail flicking in frustration. Without hesitation, he slipped through the door with feline grace, muscles taut like coiled springs. Hugging the shadows, he darted for the entrance, silently pleading that no prying eyes had caught wind of his hurried retreat.
OOC:
In doubt I roll for Stealth.

Regrouping a short distance from the barracks, the party can confer safely about what they learned. Aldezar spots the tattooed soldier standing nearby, but he does not seem to be taking an interest in what you are doing.

Breg empties his pockets, revealing the contents of Abberbaugh's footlocker.
A note, signed by ol’ One-Ear, Breg says, showing the note to his companions.

Aldezar considered the note. "Seems like every gang probably has a member missing an ear. A few coins is plenty of reason for some to murder a man, but this is an elaborate plan for a few gold when plenty of people disappear or are found in a back alley somewhere."

He tried to remember, "Anyone notice if that man in the barracks with the tattoo was missing an ear?"
