that there was another prison cell, but those bars
have been breached, as they are currently bent,
gnarled, and twisted and pulled out of place. The
cell beyond it appears to be open.
MARISHA: I’m going to move up and go to the
opposite side of where Molly is and peek down the
opposite way, just like he did.
MATT: Anybody else moving anywhere?
LIAM: While people are moving around the room I
whisper: Just for our options here. If we want to
kick this off and don’t mind getting its
attention, I can magically unlock this door here,
which will make a sound, and then instantly lock
it. If we wanted to, we could all hustle inside
here, and maybe attack at range? Just as an
option.
SAM: Does the door have holes?
MATT: The door is open but there are bars on
this.
SAM: That’s not a door, it’s just a cage.
MATT: Yes, and it’s partially bent inward from the
impact. It looks like it sustained quite a bit of
brunt force to it over time.
LAIM: That would put Beau and Yasha at a
disadvantage, but the rest of us could take pot
shots at it from in here.
MARISHA: You know, I like that idea. Maybe Yasha
and I can stand and hide and crouch in the corners
while you guys get its attention and shoot it from
range. What I would be afraid of is if we were all
in there, and it eventually did what it did to
those bars over there, and busted in. And we were
all sitting ducks on the inside.
LIAM: Well I could be wrong, but with what I know
how to do, I don’t think it can do that to this
door, for a short amount of time.
MARISHA: It looks like it–
TALIESIN: Do you have a plan?
LIAM: Well, I’m talking about magic. I can
magically seal this door. Unless it has a way to
deal with that, it will not be able to get
through.
SAM: That’s pretty good. Let’s move quickly,
though.
MATT: Make an intelligence check, Caleb, if you
don’t mind.
LIAM: That is 15.
MATT: 15. Okay. You were referring. I believe, to
the spell Arcane Lock, right?
LIAM: “Impassable until it is broken, or the spell
is dispelled or suppressed.”
MATT: Yep. It can still be forced open; it’s just
a higher DC to do so. It’s possible, but it makes
it a much harder door to break through.
LIAM: Okay.
MATT: You have a valid point to what you’re
saying, yes.
MARISHA: Can I still complete my perception check
and see if I see down here?
MATT: Go for it. Make a perception check.
MARISHA: Not great. Seven.
MATT: Seven? Unfortunately, even with your
