[QUOTE="Phoenix, post: 2439701, member: 16166"] [sblock]Strength check (DC hidden) +10 - Failure Strength check (DC hidden) +24 - Success [/sblock] Ba'aktar's weakened muscles strained against the bars, trying to loosen them from their brackets in the floor, but to no avail. He could tell that, in time, they would come loose, just not right away... Probably a day passed, who knew in this place? The half-orc rolled the bar from side to side, picked at the morter, and slowly loosened the iron bar that rested in place. At on epoint the corridor echoed with booted feet and their was a horrible scream, but nothing and nobody bothered him in his effort. [sblock]Ba'aktar heals 4hp during this time. [/sblock] Hunger was the worse part, but it was not nearly as bad as this parched throat and lips, begging for any fluid. Without the ring he had come to rely upon so dearly, it seemed somewhat ironic that he may die this way rather than on the point of a blade. [sblock]Fort saves vs dehydration: DC 10 +10 - Success DC 11 +16 - Success DC 12 +21 - Success DC 13 +7 - Failure (5pts subdual damage) DC 14 +16 - Success DC 15 +17 - Success [/sblock] Somewhere in a quieter moment, when the wailing in the distance was softer, the bar slipped out into Ba'aktar's tired hands. The gap in the cell wall was small, but Ba'aktar spared no time in pushing him self inbetween them, breathing out, and squeezing... [sblock]Escape Artist check (DC 20) +24 - Success [/sblock] Collapsing in the corridor outside of his cell, the now-freed half-orc could see the corridor clearer in the dark. There was a faint light from the direction of the wailing noise, though the chamber was probably still a fair distance away. Cells lined one side of the corridor, though the ones near Ba'aktar looked empty. Behind him the corridor disappeared into the darkness with no indication of what way beyond. [/QUOTE]
