Liberty's Edge

The manacles are held closed by an iron pin, which you can remove with ease. Once unlocked, the clasps fall open, falling to the sand.

I will add the manacles to your party's inventory.

Jask stands up, rubbing his arms and heavily favouring his undamaged leg. "That's two I owe ya, brother," He says with grave sincerity. Then he turns and hobbles into the jungle, disappearing almost at once in the dense foliage.

Liberty's Edge

Jask meets Beothall's eyes, and sees that the dwarf is unable to ease his pain. "No love lost, my brother," he says calmly, "By the soft heart o' mercy, can you free me from these chains? My God can quell the fire in my blood, but first I need my hands to call Her mercies down."

Liberty's Edge

Beothall carries Jask away from the remaining two sea scorpions, leaving Ishirou to face them. He is joined by Aerys Mavoto, who strikes one bare-fisted until its shell splits. The second survives another few seconds--long enough to swipe at Ishirou twice and miss. Then it meets its brother's fate.

The dark man slung over Beo's shoulder still has his hands behind his back. In fact, you realize as you set him down, his arms are pinioned behind him, the manacles held shut with a heavy iron lock.

"That glow..." Says Derindi, "You're a holy man, like me, brother. Can you pull the poison out of my leg? By the Winds, brother, how it burns my blood!"

Liberty's Edge

By the time Beothall reaches him, the downed man has been rudely awakened by several preliminary pinches from the sea scorpion's pincers. Now he flails in the sand and cries out for help -- but for some reason, his hands remain pinned behind his back.

"Get them off me! Get them off me!"

One of the sea scorpions continues tormenting him, but the other two notice Beothall, and skitter sideways to defend their meal from his approach. They appear poised to attack you.

Let's skip initiative for the time being, since this combat is just for one PC. Remember, if you want to attack, post all of your rolls, including damage, and I'll let you know if you hit successfully.
