Male Human Rogue 1

Trusting that the arrival of the strangers will prove a suitable, if fleeting, distraction, Coyote will bolt forward and attempt to club Lamm in the head with his fists. Attack roll: 6. Oops.


Male Human Rogue 1

Spoiler:
I'll head off to where my gear is being kept, presumably entering the same room where the old guy went. If possible, I'll sneak up behind him and garrote him with my manacles. Stealth roll: 25; attack roll: 13


Male Human Rogue 1

Spoiler:
I'll move onto the ledge and as far from the water as I can, keeping an eye on the "crazy old guy" as I do so.


Male Human Rogue 1

Spoiler:
I'll do my best to wriggle out of the ropes and get to my gear. Any sign of the creepy old guy or any guards?


Male Human Rogue 1

Spoiler:
With all the commotion, I'll do my best to get free. I'll wrap the rope on the other side of the pulley around my leg to try to mitigate the distance I'll fall and then do my best to work the rope free.


Male Human Rogue 1

I'm baaaaaack! ;)

Spoiler:
Is there a way to get just enough slack to made it down to where my gear is located? If not, I'll just try to get free. Do I hear the noise the other two are making? Perception check: 14

Leaving for 2 weeks on my honeymoon. Back on 9/15. Good luck, guys!


Male Human Rogue 1

Spoiler:
How are the ropes anchored to the ceiling? Would it be possible to pull the rope free or climb up and undo it? If so, I'll try that. Otherwise, I'll try to take some of the strain off my arms and reassess the situation.


Male Human Rogue 1

Spoiler:
After a brief rest, Coyote will try again. Strength check: 17, Acrobatics: 12, Escape Artist: 15.


Male Human Rogue 1

Spoiler:
Strength check: 3, Acrobatics: 8, Escape Artist: 13. I'm going nowhere. :D Failing to even move himself, let alone actually go anywhere, Coyote hangs dejected and feels sorry for himself for a while.


Male Human Rogue 1

Spoiler:
Coyote will try to swing over to one of the nearby ropes with small manacles, wrap his legs around the rope, and use the other manacles to saw through the rope attached to his own manacles. Hopefully, not falling in the water after the rope's cut.


Male Human Rogue 1

Spoiler:
Perception 25, Knowledge (local) to figure out where I am 13, Wisdom check 5, Escape Artist 12 to try and get an arm free, Climb to try to get up to where the rope is anchored 6.

Coyote will take stock of his situation and the tools at hand, especially any visible means of escaping the shackles or any people present. Is there any chance to swing over to the walkway, or is he dangling too far to reach anything of interest?

You guys may be slightly overthinking this. Given Lamm's "too big to oppose and too small to squash" status, he's likely suffering from an excess of confidence. To have the children working so openly is a sure sign of hubris, and that can work to your advantage. Avoid the front door (too obvious) and the barge side (watched too carefully), and you should be golden.

Re the sunrods: always be prepared. :)

Just keep in mind that arson's likely a hanging offense. :) Also, the barge fire would pretty quickly spread to the northern (?) end of the building, so you'd have to move fast or you'd end up inside your own inferno. I have a vague suspicion that burning down the building would attract the authorities and make me very sad. ;)

Sneaking in the window and sapping everyone in sight would be Coyote's preference were he there, but he prefers not to attract attention where possible.

Reporting for duty, ma'am.


Here's my hat being thrown in the ring. The history's a best guess for the campaign and likely conflicts with what you have planned, but hopefully only a little. :)

Let me know what I've screwed up or forgotten and I'll fix it.
