It is the year 1284 of the Tessian Settlement on the Tessaria Calendar. A week before this night, a number of unrelated adventurers were arrested in the region of Atheridos. Accidental arrests in Tessaria are common, and so they awaited their release to come shortly after. However, a week has passed and still they are incarcerated. It is such strange circumstances that they have not even been told the nature of their crime. They are not expecting release soon. Eriol Magnus, the half-demon barbarian. Enoch, the human cleric. Mandude, the human rogue. And Julian the noble great cat. This is how their journey begins. Edited by Tarsir, Oct 13 2008, 10:53 PM.

It is the middle of the night. In their cells, none of the prisoners stir. None see. None wake. Before the cell of Eriol a voice is heard, but only to him. He wakes at the voice instantly as it speaks in a rasp. "You need not be here. Seek those who know not their crime, as you do not. Bring to Erithil his justice." The cell lock clicks open. |

The half demon looks around suspiciously, then slowly opens the door. He proceeds to check the nearby cells one by one, tapping at the bars of each. |

Enoch the cleric is woken up by this banging. "Hey, I'm trying to get some sleep here! It's bad enough that I just happened to be wandering through this place and get arrested, now I can't even... hm, wait a minute... you don't look like one of the guards..." |

Julian's ears perk at the sounds and he quietly moves to the door of his cell, watching the cleric and the demon intently. |

Eriol wonders briefly if he has the time for this, and decides he does. "Why were you arrested?" he asks quickly. |

As Eriol asks, the cell's lock clicks open. |

"Oh, good, I'm being let out, it seems... anyways, as I said, I was just passing by, being a travelling cleric and all... hey, I'm not complaining about being let out and all, but I'm not sure why we were locked up to begin with...'' Enoch fails to notice that he is talking to a half-demon, who for all intents and purposes, should be his enemy, but he has always been a bit odd for a cleric. |

"In that case," says Eriol, "hurry up and follow me. I might need your help." He then turns to the next cell and resumes tapping. |

"Wait, how did you get out?" the tiger calls over to them. |

"I don't know," Eriol replies simply without looking to see who spoke. "Why, what did you do?" |

"I do not believe I have committed any crime." He begins to pace in front of his door. "I have not been told what I am accused of." |

A fourth person wakes, snorting loudly as he wakes. He sits up before promptly collapsing back down, holding his head and moaning low as a headache racks his skull, no doubt a memento from a night of merrymaking...but...he didn't recall any of that...in fact...where was he? He slowly scootches over to the bars, his half-lidded eyes peering through his fingers, still trying to quell his headache. |

As Mandude wakes in the excessive pain of a hangover, the lock on his cell as well as Julian's click open. On the far ends of the cell block, there is a door and a barred window. Edited by Tarsir, Oct 15 2008, 08:04 PM.

Receiving no response from the remaining cells, Eriol ceases his tapping and surveys the dungeon. It looks a lot better from outside the cell, he decides. He sees the door and hurries over to it, then pauses to wait for the others who have been released. |

Enoch notices Mandude, and says to him, ''Hey, you there! You're a rouge, right? Get over here and check for... thief stuff. You know what I mean.'' He then walks over besides Eriol. |

Mandude sluggishly rises, stretching for a few moments before stumbling through the cell door. He scratches the back of his neck, giving the room a once over before shambling over to the two at the door. "S'nice bit of lock picking there, gents. I didn't even see either of you do it!" Mandude checks door for trapz. (15) He also attempts to unlock the door using only pocket lint and a dried up bit of beef jerky. (10) Edited by Doob Zurz, Oct 15 2008, 09:18 PM.

The beef jerky forms with the lint to make water. The door is locked, but not trapped. |

"Waste of time," Eriol spits, and faces the door. After a moment of preparation, he swings a mighty blow. (Strength check to break down the door: 25) |

Julian nudges his door open and moves down the hallway, watching the antics at the door from behind the others. |

(Would it be a good idea to put the Dice Roller and General Reference from the other topic into this one as well? It'd be easier to do it without having to go see the other topic everytime I want a dice roll) Listen Check: 8 + 3 = 11 Spot Check: 2 + 3 = 5 |
