Chapter 1: Prisoners of the Drow

Friend Stool, I am indeed angry. Being locked in a cage makes me angry. Having someone attempt to take my dignity makes me angry.I throw a cool and level glance at Ront. Being called half breed makes me angry. The sooner we get out and free of these slavers the sooner I will stop being angry. I look to Reizei. What are your thoughts on this?

Reizei throws a smirk at the half-Orc. "I would be angered at being called a half breed as well, friend."

The Eladrin repositions himself against the wall and settles into a slightly more comfortable position. With another quick glance around to make sure they aren't being overheard he adds, "Escape, of course, the big picture. It is the how and when we need to plan carefully. I would suggest we do two things, for the time being. First, let us observe and gather information. Nothing is too trivial or insignificant. Second, me must not hesitate when the right moment presents itself. And we must act as one."

He lets out a heavy breath as though the length of his communication had taken a physical toll. "I suggest we are not ready for that moment. We must work together and do all we can to become ready when that moment presents itself."

Did Reizie or any of the NPC's respond to Thieves cant ? Also hopefully I intimidated the drow.

Speaking to Topsy, Bildaweer talks about the importance of family.

OOC:

Insight check. I'd like to get a feel on whether she'd betray us to save brother.

are there any tools that we would use for other work details in my line of sight. I am looking for a shovel or pickaxe, something I can use as a makeshift weapon.

You may have a point surface scum. In any event, I'm in here because of a crime I don't remember committing, but must have, otherwise I wouldn't be put in here. I may have been framed, by one of the other drow. As for your things, I can guess, but in case you hadn't noticed, I've been in this pit since you arrived. Chances are, Mistress has your things collected in her chambers.

OOC:

@Reizei - You are unaware of any eavesdroppers.
@Bildaweer - Topsy seems pretty devoted to her brother. More than that, you can't figure out.
@Cemos - There are no tools in here, it's fully a prison cell, except for the number of people in it. Any tools you may need you are given when you go out for your work detail. The closest thing you can think of would be your chamberpot.

Alright, where would her chambers be. If you can't remember perhaps you were framed. I know there was a change in status among the drow warriors recently when one was wounded. A map even one traced in dust would work.

Topsy, we must leave this place. Some of us are preparing to escape. Are you with us? Do you have anything, any item or information or ability you can assist us with?

Nov 25, 2016 9:11 pm

alright lads. cemos utters in a hushed tone. I have been here for several days now and I have managed to scrap together this silk rope. cemos shows his cell mates the 5' rope. now my plan was to wait until one of the guards opened the gate to take us to our next work detail and use it to choke the life out of him but if any one has a better idea nows the time to say it.

Nov 25, 2016 9:12 pm

Dustin motions the others who seem to also be planning over. He then looked to Stool, My friend could you make it so we can all talk mentally ?

Nov 25, 2016 9:27 pm

hey you there cemos points to dustin.what are you doing with that creature?

Nov 25, 2016 9:42 pm

This little guy is named Stool, and as I understand it he lets people around him talk in their heads not only with him but with everyone else around him. So it is less conspicous He thinks to Cemos.

As for your rope thats a good thought, perhaps if it is broken in half it might make two passable slings, with proper stones. Our other weapon while disgusting may be surprising enough to throw our captors off their game. He looks to one of the chamber pots.

I don't know precisely where her chambers are. I was never that privileged. But she lives in the big spire, out over the webs. Sarith says telepathically, his mental voice sounding mildly defeated.
________________________________________________________________
Topsy looks at Bildaweer and shies away. Shhhhhh. Don't let them hear you talk like that! It's a good way to get shot! She says as she runs off to Turvy's side, leaving you alone.
________________________________________________________________
I thought you all could? Isn't that why all the people are talking in my head now? I can hear most of you. Why is that one talking out loud? It's dangerous! You should make him stop. Stool says mentally, his voice floating through all of your heads.

Cemos utterly confounded by the unknown voice in his head.what the.... are you reading my thoughts? cemos thinks aloud.look i don't know how this is possible but I've been here for 6 days and I have had about all I can handle. I don't want to be sold off as some lowly slave so if your willing let's try and get one of the guards to come in the cell so we can jump them.

Yes just think what you want to say. We will hear in our heads. Stool we dont have the amazing ability you have to let us do this. Thank you for helping all of us. Dustin nods at Sarith's words it made sense from what he saw everyone kissed their Priestess butt among the drow.

He nodded at the mental picture sharing it with the others.

Nov 25, 2016 9:50 pm

You try that dwarf, and see how it goes for you. They keep the gate covered by crossbow from the spire across the way. Plus, you'd have to try getting them into the cell, which they don't do. Ever. Sarith sneers into your minds.

Nov 25, 2016 9:53 pm

I think someone should try to cause a Ruckus, like start a fight with another cell mate or even feign death. Something to get that guard to open the door. If it's just the one we can jump him and tie him up.

Nov 25, 2016 9:55 pm

Cemos glances in the direction of the guard tower.well then I guess we will have to wait till we go on our next work detail.
