Chapter 1: Prisoners of the Drow

[drpete]

The group idles away the rest of the time before going to sleep.

The next day, you are awakened when a group of three guards and six quaggoth come to divide you up for your duties. One of the drow unlocks the gate, and calls for you all to emerge.

Do you want to do anything in particular as you are led off to your duties?

[Pulpatoon]

Has Ornthalas had a chance to attempt picking our manacles?

[drpete]

He certainly can try, and anyone who wants to can try to escape. On a failure, you cannot try again until you take a long rest (so you can roll an attempt for yesterday, and one for today, if you like.)

Ornthalas

While still able to communicate silently with everyone, Ornthalas makes a few suggestions. When we're on work detail tomorrow, look for anything that looks like the way to the surface. Look for any way we could potentially isolate some of our captors- a bridge we can cut, whatever. If you can get your hands on anything you can use as a weapon or something that could slow down our captors somehow, take it, but don't get caught. If you don't think you can avoid being spotted, don't try it. Better to let it go than have them catch you. I've got something I can try to pick locks with, but if you can get a piece of wire or something long and thin it might be better than what I found. Any additional info we can get, either overheard or observed, about the area could be important. Hopefully, we'll try our escape tomorrow night.
