D&D 5E Escape the Underdark, Fear the Madness, and get Out of the Abyss - IC

[EarlyBird]

Atallia takes and works the key into the lock of her manacles, she twist the key and then shakes the hated metal loose. They and the key fall to the floor of the cell, JimJar jumping at the sudden movement.

Then she dashes across the entryway, bridge, and into the guard tower with inhuman speed.

The guard had been fumbling with the horn that fell from the table but then quickly raises it to his lips. He blows hard, but not a sound can be heard. He tries again his eyes widening and his face turning purple.

OOC: Atallia -1 ki point, Moves to G5 TOP of INIT

Thia casts true strike and then rushes forward to cut off the drow guard (F6). She menaces him with the knife and holds her other hand out to take the horn, giving him the chance to release it. But she's watching that he doesn't go for his weapon.

OOC: if he goes for a weapon, he gets stabbed. Provokes an AoO, he gets stabbed. action = cast true strike move = to F6

Finnan,

"If only," says Finnan to Bupiddo, "But no, I am barely finished my apprenticeship." He races to the dropped keys to undo his manacles.

"Someone needs to help Eldeth, and we need to kill that last guard. Quietly." he says as he heads towards to bridge, placing himself so that he can cover both the front and rear of the group with the range of his attack.

[SBLOCK=Actions and Rolls]
Move: to pick up keys then to P9 - I think that is as far as he can get.
Action: Pick up key and unlock his manacles then drop them again for the next character.

Kildrak smiled darkly. He wished the last thing the drow heard was the curses Kildrak laid upon him. But he took enough satisfaction snapping the chains of his manacles forward and crushing the nose of the dark elf. The guard slumped to the ground with his eyes smoking and blackened.
He took a moment to take in the corpse with from satisfaction before heading back over the bridge to get the chains he used so effectively off. He hoped Valkauna appreciated the irony.

Thia smiles as she lowers her knife. She looks at the dead body to see if it has anything useful on it: keys, weapons, etc. She also looks down the second rope bridge to see if anyone is coming their way.

OOC: perception I guess since she doesn't really have an action for investigation. [roll0]

Finnan moving sets the rest of the prisoners off into flurry of actions. JimJar moves to the stone stairs, and crouches low helping Eldath watch the quaggoth lair. Ront runs along with the halfling and takes his turn to have his manacles removed, before covering the bridge into the guard tower.

Stool runs along behind everyone, moving as fast as his little legs can carry him.

Buppido, Sarith, and Shuushar ire on the side of caution as the still aren't sure about the outcome of these unfolding events.

Prince Derendil follows the elven warrioress into the guard tower. He goes to the other entrance and watches the second bridge.

Topsy gives her brother a lop-sized grin before her image shimmers and shrinks. A giant rat emerges from the manacles lying on the ground at Turvy's feet. Running for the bridge the deep gnome can almost hear his sister's laughter echoing in his head. "He wait for me!"

OOC: END OF COMBAT Didn't need the quaggoth to attack after all. Drow possesions: each drow - set of two keys (cell and manacles) - chain shirt - short sword - hand crossbow - case w/10 quarrels (9 for the one shot Finnan) Seperate items - musical instrument, horn - bone dice, spider marks the six side - 4sp, 6cp - random trinket [roll0] -- night cap that when worn gives you pleasant dreams

Kildrak relieves one of the drow bodies of its sword and checks to see if the chain shirt would fit.

OOC: Otherwise it fits, just not something you want to keep permanently. lol AC: 12 (chain shirt, -dex)

Finnan,

With the immediate pressure off, Finnan takes a look at his bolt wound - it certainly could be worse he thinks.

Finnan watches the others search the drow, nothing there that Finnan needed more than anyone else. "That's a good start. If we could get away now without alerting anyone, we'd have a great head start." He says. As Kildrak sets about donning the drow armour he looked around the room, the rope ladder up catching his eye, "What's up there?"

Thia grabs the second set of keys and undoes her manacles, handing the keys to anyone who needs them after her. She then climbs the rope to the second level.

OOC: The silence spell is still in effect until she is sure there is nobody above who might raise an alarm. Once the upper floor seems clear, she will drop the silence spell.
