Re: AVB - The Fallen One
With a mad grin, Sedrach goes in for the finish.

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
You rip him open. He falls to the ground dead and bloody.
Suddenly, the door at the end of the hall behind you flies open.Quod tibi vis fieri, facias.Spoiler: Links to my content threadsAldhaven - May 27, 2010 and ongoing.

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
Sedrach grabs the sword of the fallen man; no time to properly loot, but bringing the prisoners he wants to free a weapon seems like a good idea. He turns, looking what is about to burst through the door. He could probably handle two men at once, but any more and he'd likely have to use his mobility advantage by blinking through walls. Probably too late for bluffing them into thinking he was the bad guy with the blood around my lips. Oh well, let's roll with it.

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
You see two men, obviously not member of the Watch, prisoners by the look of them. They both appear unarmed, but the one in front suddenly summons two large owlbear skeletons.

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
"Oi, you!" he calls out, pointing the three arms not holding the sword at them. "Got a sense of irony on you? I went through three watch officers, none too happy to have met me, and they couldn't or wouldn't tell me where the cells are. If you do it will make my day."

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
"Guess once or twice of thrice, no make that Seven, as in Dragons of the Empire. Know where the spies are? Help me get them and I'll help you. You won't get past the walls on your own, but I came prepared." He blinks 10 feet to the left to demonstrate.

"They must be in the lower prisons below where we were held. I'll let you through, then."
The Owlbear Skeletons stand down, and the two men back down the short flight of stairs to the prison levels.Quod tibi vis fieri, facias.Spoiler: Links to my content threadsAldhaven - May 27, 2010 and ongoing.

"Good. One of you need a sword to whack watchmen?" Sedrach walks past the skeletons and down the stairs, offering the sword if one of the men desires it.

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
The caster says, "Unnecessary for myself, though I am in dire need of my spellpouch and other confiscated equipment at some point. Need me to have the skeletons break down the door to the lower level?"
The other prisoner readily accepts. "Yeah, I need a good blade."Quod tibi vis fieri, facias.Spoiler: Links to my content threadsAldhaven - May 27, 2010 and ongoing.

"Go ahead. I'll blink ahead and see if I can find my targets. Save your other spells for combat, we should have company soon. See you in a few." Sedrach walks next to the door and blinks on the other side, taking a look around the place.

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
SpoilerWhat language is used in the Empire of Seven Dragons? Common? Draconic?
I'm looking for an easy way to conclude someone isn't from there. Something common knowledge in the Empire, but more obscure here. Like every German, even the stupid ones, knows Stuttgart is in Baden Württemberg and München in Bayern, RTL is a TV channel and CSU a political party.
I don't want to end up doing all this for a dirty opportunist who just falsely claims to be one of the spiesLast edited by TheFallenOne; 2012-11-18 at 08:43 PM.

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
The other side of the door is simple a stairway that curves around on itself as it descends. At the bottom, you find another hallway identical to the one above. There are four cells all along the same wall. Another set of iron bars prevents you from entering this hallway. At the far end is another set of stairs with yet another door.SpoilerThat would be a Knowledge check.
Descending the stairs, you quickly loose sight of the men (and owlbear skeletons) you just met.Last edited by Rizban; 2012-11-19 at 02:36 AM.

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
Spoilershouldn't I know some basic things about the country I grew up in? At the very least what language is used`?
So at least three levels of cells. Sedrach blinks past the first set of bars, adressing the cells assuming they have a window. "Quick show of hands, who here is an alleged spy from the Empire of Seven Dragons? Don't be shy, I said 'alleged', you don't admit to anything just by speaking up."

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
SpoilerAh, right, forgot that was your home country.
They speak a dialect of Common that includes an abnormally high number of Draconic words. Most people cannot speak or read Draconic, but they understand enough of it to get the basic message when someone speaks Draconic to them in an attempt to be understood.
No one responds. It seems as if these four cells are completely empty.Quod tibi vis fieri, facias.Spoiler: Links to my content threadsAldhaven - May 27, 2010 and ongoing.

He should probably allow the other two a chance to catch up, so Sedrach tries to work the locks on the two sets of iron bars. He then goes to the next level below.

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
You manage to open both locks and head deeper.
The next level is yet another clone of the last, except that this floor is completely unlit. Small traces of the flicking torches from above creep down the stairs but are quickly lost in the darkness below.Quod tibi vis fieri, facias.Spoiler: Links to my content threadsAldhaven - May 27, 2010 and ongoing.

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
Sedrach activates one of his sunrods and tosses it into the middle of the hallway. He adresses the cells using the Common interspersed with Draconic words used in the Empire. "Hey there, anyone here? I'm looking for some guys or gals accused of being spies from the Empire of Seven Dragons."

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
A lone hand reaches out of the cell. It looks rather emaciated, as if the person to whom it belongs has been starved for quite some time.
"Save... me..." The two words are in draconic.Quod tibi vis fieri, facias.Spoiler: Links to my content threadsAldhaven - May 27, 2010 and ongoing.

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
He drinks the water and tries to chew the trail rations, but the hard, dried rations are too difficult for him to do more than chew at feebly.
He coughs several times as he tries to speak, his voice obviously unused to speech.

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
Well, he wasn't the price he came for, but if he found the spies he could just ask them what to do with the sad former ambassador... "Climb into my Bag of Holding, we're leaving this cell. Hophop." He holds the bag open and once the man is inside he blinks into the hallway again and works the lock to the fourth underground level.

Re: AVB - The Fallen One
Seeing a chance to finally escape, the old man tenderly climbs into the bag. He, however, refuses to let go of the edge of the bag, leaving his fingers sticking out. From this position, he will get plenty of air and also be able to open the bag from within if necessary.
The lock on the next door refuses to open. It seems to have a much better lock than the other doors.Quod tibi vis fieri, facias.Spoiler: Links to my content threadsAldhaven - May 27, 2010 and ongoing.
