So, you big orc?
"Grumblejack, eh? Please to meet ya! I'm Talia, and I'm here to rescue you." She says, flashing the big creature a grin, as she works to pop the lock of his cell door.
[Grumblejack grumbles deep in his chest and says that is a little un orc is, Grumblejack is an ogre. and he watches intently as Talia starts working on the lock of the cage.
"Oh yes, Grumblejack will do so much smashybreak on the nasty guards! They'll be all..."
...and she falls to the floor with her limbs at odd angles, her eyes rolled back and tongue out, just like a guard smashed by an ogre.
Just what is wrong with you, human? Aghh glares at her.
Audi smiles at Grumblejack. He motions to Aggghhh.
Would you fine gentlemen care to bash that outer door there and crush anyone on the other side?
The scarred Witch doctor nods as if listening to another for a moment.
Yes! The Ancestors agree. We will be guiding your steps.
The 1/2 orc then asks the Ancestors for Guidance on the two just prior to any breaking through doors....
Time keeps on ticking, ticking, ticking....
As she lays there, still "Dead", a voice from thin air calmly states, "Deliberately induced dissociative states caused by repeated use of mind-affecting magical trauma during childhood. Including possession by multiple entities."
But she does scuttle out of the way as Aggghhh and Grumblejack begin moving toward the door.
Aggghh is relieved to do something useful and.....Hesitates and just tries the door to see if it opens without alerting anyone
Wiktor's hungry gaze cannot hide the disappointment that Jassie isn't actually deceased...
As Ogre and Orc move toward the door the lanky wretch steps aside expectantly;
"Breaking door vil bring guards yes?"
As Leralesti notices the others actually talking to the brute and working on releasing him as well, she steps to the shadows. She almost seems to blend with them, the dark embracing her as she silently steps in. She doesn't have a good feeling about the giant, neither feels like staying around for his rage.
She enjoys the idea of him breaking out towards the guards, but hates that it means they'll have to flee during the mess without actually having made any plans - everything is feeling a lot more rushed than it should. She keeps her eyes in Audi, as he's carrying the rest of the patches, but cares less about the others.
The cage door pops open and Grumblejack moves out.
Grumblejack seems weakened by something as he grabs the door and attempts to bash it open.
The door smashes down with a sickening crunch as wood splinters spray everywhere. The door at the bottom is also closed as well as the door to the conference room. There is a small fireplace which shows some use.
Aghhh is feeling rather weak today.
The door splintered open
Ahhh opens the door to the meeting room
As the door shatters Wiktor hisses his concern;
"Feh. Too much noise! They vill come..."
In the big orcs wake the wretch slinks into the meeting room, arms hanging loose and too long by his sides;
Audi peers into the main room. The 1/2 orc frowns. He then notices the door at the bottom being also closed.
Grumblejack and Aggghhh want to try that one also? The Ancestors will offer Guidance to you both. We have places to go and people to meet.
Aggghh tries opening the door.
While the boys deal with the doors, Talia scans the room for anything useful.
The meeting room has two chairs and as you look closer seems to have been a questioning room previously with some blood on the floor.
The chimney might allow medium or small people to climb down it.
Grumblejack squeezes down the stairs and grabs the door and gives it a hard thrashing. Below as he blasts the door you hear some frightened yelling beyond the door.
The door explodes open making tremendous noise. Two guards in the hallway below are walking toward the door and are yelling their fool brains out ALARM!
Everyone may go before the guards as the yell out the alarm!
Audi ibn Jad laughs at the frightened guards. The wickedly scarred 1/2 orc points to the closest guard, as he strides to within 30'.
The Ancestors degree that you are cursed.
Audi then smiles at Aggghhh and Grumblejack.
The Ancestors suggest smashing that one first.
Audi glances at Wiktor and Prisoner 1723.
Can you prevent any thoughts of leaving in our guests?
Jacinda nods nervously and says "I can try to stop one for a moment. but not both."
She'll wait until the last minute, until a guard runs for the door, then she calls out "Halt! stand your ground" in the Sergeant's voice.
Both guards stand firm and continue yelling alarm despite being outnumbered. They have bows and longswords with a dagger each as well.
At Audi's words Wiktor grimaces, shaking his head;
"Magicks only make them flee..."
Instead the lithe wretch moves forward towards the guardsmen, but keeps in the wake of Grumblejack and Aggghhh.
Grumblejack pops into the hallway below with a low growl and attempts to slam a guard.
The ogres large fist glances of the armor of the guard with a oooff from the guard but little else.
You boys getting paid enough for this shit?

Leralesti doesn't stay at the hair of action, but starts a performance by simply humming, almost inaudibly; her performance doesn't give any visible benefits, but her allies can "feel" it if they're touching the ground. Her enemies can also feel it - she positions herself within at least 30 feet of them, and the tremors on the ground make them lose a bit of their balance.
Aghh stabs at a guard with his dagger
the dagger slides past the chain links of the guard seriously wounding him but he is still in it
Talia lands softly on her paws, then darts over to one of the guards whom she attempts to rake with her claws.
Death to humans!
Jassie will follow down after the group. From the door behind the guards, they'll hear the sergeant's voice, "Don't let them get close, they've been infected!"
Alright standing in a twenty foot wide hallway with two guards the guard to the right is badly wounded And the one to the left is kitty scratched.
One guard attacks Talia and the other Aggghhh.
Aggghhh is lightly wounded and Talia is amazed as the Ogre with his reach takes the blow from behind her!
Group may go!
Augghh keeps hacking
Grumblejack takes a massive swing as well and you here the wind resistance as the fist comes down.
Audi frowns at the elongated duration that has been produced by this annoyance. He targets the same guard that Jumplejack has targeted.
From safely behind Grumblejack and Aggghhh, Wiktor's sinewy form jerks erratically as he hisses threats at the least damaged of the guardsmen;
"Ssssssoooon ve vill dine upon your marrow and meat... Ssssssoooon ve vill dress ourselves with your blood and guts... No one is coming... No one can save you..."

Indeed the guard is demoralized and he cries out mercy upon us in our time of need great Mitra!
