"What is it cell mate? Has your roguish whit run out so soon? Oh please indulge us all with your charms. Unless of course you were lying and your really a simpleton and a bore. Swoon me, if you can? We have nothing else to do anyway. Oh but your shackles prevent you, right. So you think your hands on my curves will do it all. They must be some special hands. Maybe I'm not enough for such special hands. Maybe you will require both of us. We would melt like wax to a flame and ravish your body all the more. Sounds more like an empty boast to me. Show me rogue, impress me. You may just get what you want, but you can't get anything if you don't try."

sister don't waist your time with that simpleton. Let him rant if he so desires.

"You think I'm a petty rogue?" The tattoo'd man pauses. "Girl, there is a reason they fear to let me sleep. These chains do not bind me from my power such as yours do."

who else is in this cell with us?

It's just the 3 of you.

well rouge if your so good. Show us. prove your supremicy to us. Unlock your shackles. And show us your greatness.

"Perhaps you didn't understand me. I'm no rogue" He responds.

what are you then?

"Charming?" The man let's out a tired laugh, amused at his own answer.

He'll sidestep your attempt for a direct answer over and over lol. He has been dropping subtle hints though. It will be more fun this way;) He is indeed quite powerful, but without rest he's not so tough, which is why they won't let him sleep.

In undercommon "I have to agree sister. He rants, but he does have a certain charm to his immature behavior. He might make us a fun subversive should he survive our escape."

HunYet will pray to Asomdeus in infernal as if speaking to nobody.

"Father of Hell, grant your faithful the power to do evil. You alone are the Prince of Darkness. You are the darkness that surrounds and extinguishes the light. Bring the evil power to all whom oppose me and I will sacrifice them in your name."

In Undercommon "So charming cell mate how long do you expect me to wait for you to get us out of here? I don't like wasting away here like simple thralls. We three are destine for greater things and it is time we got busy with the purpose that The Prince of Darkness has brought us together. What is it you desire to assist in our escape?"

The man laughs at HunYet.

"That is it my charming man enjoy yourself, it very clear that the Father of Hell is awaiting your service. I hear he like to laugh too."

The man looks up to HunYet, "I'm sure he will find your arrogance quite amusing then".

I should mention, the few times this man has laughed, its not like a loud hysterical laugh. Its more of a quiet snicker, with his head hung low in exhaustion.

HunYet laughs with sinister intent. "So true charming one. You say your not a rogue, but when you speak you always seem to try to steal something. And you are probably right about Father too. I'm sure he is laughing now at us all. Timing is a tricky thing and he has give us only three days to escape and get there. Sitting here waiting is only going to make him laugh all the harder."

"Then my advice to you my lady, is to quit wasting time".

I Sleep to pass threw the pain. From the beating.

As Tsam-nar sleeps, 2 guards enter the cell with a bucket that exudes a bitter stench. "Time for your meds scumbag". One of the guards grabs the stranger from behind, holiding his head up and still while the other pulls a dripping rag from the bucket, rings it out, and places it over the mans nose and mouth.

"Rest on me sister I'm here to comfort you."

In Common "You two should be careful. If you give him any more of that your going to stop his heart. He's almost dead already. Unless of course its okay for guards to kill prisoners. I suppose its that same thing right. Its not like there is anyone important waiting to see that justice is served. Never mind, just ignore me I've obviously lost my wits. You two are in charge here."

The guards ignore HunYet completely until the move to exit the cell. At that point one of the guards pulls out his club and clobbers her over the head. "I can beat on you for days without killing you, after which justice will still be served".

Damage: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8

He then exits, turning back to have one more laugh as he shuts the cell door.

Spell Ability - detect magic

HunYet sees a bit of glowing light coming from the place the stashed the veil.

HunYet is surprised, she was definitely not expecting that. I had been thinking that the liquid they were using was magic. I also was not aware that it was going to produce an visible aura. The description of the spell says that it reads aura. "I think I just got my self killed". I hope they didn't notice, but I need to get us out of here. If the guards are coming in I will be selective channeling energy.

Continue Detect magic...

Detect Magic makes the magical auras visible to only the caster of the spell, so you and only you can see it glowing. I'll have to check what the exact aura is and get back to ya though.

Satisfied that her activity is ignored. HunYet will continue detect magic through second round.

Focusing on it for a few rounds, you determine that the veil radiates a moderate aura.

Unfortunately, with no ranks in either Spellcraft or Knowledge Arcana, you are unable to identify it any further.

HunYet is examining the veil using Tsam-nar to cover my actions. "I can't believe I could be so foolish as to not expect Tiadora's gift to be the very thing I need. And, I actually was planing to make it my holy symbol. Dam all that is good. It already has a holy symbol stitched in the front of it." I know that the pentagram is my holy symbol, but do I recognize any of the other symbols?

It is tucked into your clothing and your hands are bound, but you recall its image from when you examined it. This is what it looks like. The symbols are of a pair of daggers, a lantern, a rope, a sack, some thieves tools, a window, a potion, a stack of coins, and an unholy symbol of asmodeus.

"thieves tools, dam I need to pay more attention" Thinks HunYet with a pouting sign. Whispering to Tsam-nar "I need you to help me get the veil out without the guards seeing it. I think there is magic thieves tools on it to get us out of these manacles. As well as several other items we will need to get out of here" Do i need a use device check to use the veil? And is it possible to get to the thieves tools with manacles on. I've been trying to figure out how its done in Pathfinder. The escape artist ability can be used while taking my time 20 + 5 Mod = 25. Manacles are listed as a 30. I can't find anything on how much the Thieves tool would mod the check. If its not greater than 5 I wouldn't have a chance.

Unfortunately you cant tell the activation method with no ranks in Spellcraft, which you must know before you can roll UMD. There are 2 ways to break free of the manacles. One is to slip free which is an Escape Artist check, the other is to pick the lock with thieves tools which is a Disable Device check.

Tsam-nar has ranks in Spellcraft, but she will need to cast her own Detect Magic spell to make the check. I don't see 0 level spells on her character sheet though. Magus' get them, so I'm not sure why she hasn't listed them.

Tsam-nar can't cast detect magic with manacles on.

Tsam-nar wakes cell mate. Do you have a way off removing these chains. And what is your name since we are stuck here

"You can call me Ransaq, and no, I don't have a way out of these chains. Not at this time anyway. I'm still waiting for one to present itself".

" well ransaq it looks like we all are in the same situation. You are welcome to join use in our escape. But when it happens it will be fast"

Ransaq silently nods at Tsam-nar. He has become fidgety and restless, a side effect of whatever they've been forcing upon him no doubt.

I will try to escape the chains espape artist: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7

wow that was a bad attempt

HunYet will take a 20 by taking my time 20+5mod=25

Both Tsam-nar and HunYet struggle, but neither are able to slip free. Unfortunately the DC is to high for either of you to slip free. Most rogues of you level would even have trouble.

getting beaten to death would be more interesting then waiting weeks for nothing. We dont have a way out of the manacles that point was made over a week ago. Either we are waiting until an opportunity happens or let us know they killed us.

Mid way through the second day, the guards bring in some water and scraps of food. Your hands remain bound but you are freed from the wall in order to feed yourself. You are handled in this fashion one at a time, starting with Tsam-nar. Two guards stand watch outside your cell.

In undercommon "Sister and potential mate, I feel that you should know that the great father of hell has bestowed to me a magic item to assist in our escape. Do either of you have the skill to use thieves tools?"

The man responds, also in undercommon, "Well well, I guess it's about time then. I am familiar in their use".

you do sister? how did you get theys items?

HunYet pulls off the tools patch of the veil and passes it to him.

"I'm not sure how it works but it is yours to try."

Better description would be helpful. Do you do this somehow while you are chained to the wall? Do you do it while you are loosed to eat? If so, do you attempt to hide your actions from the guards?

Okay, I missed the wall part in the first part of the thread. In my defense I was confused, because you told us we had our hands behind our backs and couldn't use drow sign. Our hands are over are heads and are feet are chained together. That changes every thing.
