The Wayfinders - The Wreck of the Archon

Midian Rightson, human druid

Midian holds his breath as the man looks straight through the lot of them, and a few minutes more besides. He starts breathing but remains silent a minute or so more, to be sure there are no more investigators coming through, then whispers, "I think we might be clear. Shall we see about getting off this roof?"

"Yes," Doral says before blindly ripping a cloth of the prisoner's shirt and using it to gag him. "You first. Tell me when you are down and I will lower the prisoner to you. We will have to use verbal cues since working invisible. Also, let's take him to an empty cab."

It takes considerable effort to move your party through the crowded rail cars trying to make your way to the back. Several times your group has had to sprint through a car during a brief break in human traffic as they move about between compartments.
Somehow you manage to make it to the end of the passenger rail cars where the storage cars begin. Taking the first one you come to, you search it for any signs of crew before shutting the doors behind you and setting your prisoner on one of the crates. He takes a long look around himself as your group arranges itself in front of him.

Midian Rightson, human druid

Once he's certain they're alone, Midian speaks.

"Right, then, I'm new to interrogating spies. Is it the fingers or the toes we start cutting off first to get them to talk?" he says glibly, looking to the group.

OOC:

Midian's not got much in the way of social skills, so he probably shouldn't be leading any kind of interrogation. He can turn into a nice, big, nasty animal, though, if anyone needs to threaten to feed the spy to something.

"Toes," says Kraken. "That way they can't scarper when you start on the fingers, eh?" He moves to guard the door.

Shayuri · Feb 8, 2012

Whisper shakes her head. "Torture is a measure of last resort," she says. "It's unreliable, and assassins train to resist it. Not to mention, it has detrimental effects on the torturer as well."

She hunkers down to be at eye level with the killer and reaches out to brush his bangs out of his eyes; an almost tender gesture.

"Besides...you'd like to cooperate with us, wouldn't you?" she asks, and a strange light flickers behind her eyes as she stares into his.

The man mumbles something around his gag.

Midian raises an eyebrow.

"Well, he's speaking--or trying to. That's new, at least. Suppose we should see what he has to say?" he says, moving to lower the gag, though ready to put it back should the man scream.

Whisper nods and tells the assassin, "Don't be afraid or cry out. I know this must seem frightening, but I won't let anything bad happen to you."

She smiles winsomely as the gag is lowered and asks, "So...what name are you going by these days? You can call me Whisper."

Deuce Traveler · Feb 10, 2012

While Whisper interrogates the prisoner, Doral relaxes long enough to walk off to the side of the room and take a closer look at the vials and slips of paper he took from him. He casts detect magic while he does so.
