Good news everyone! Things lightened up a little in our Underdark prison!
+SPOILER ALERT+
It turned out, that there is actually realistic plan for escape! Ella (played by me) made friends with some sympathetic ginger-haired dwarf girl and she is apparently real master-criminal. She got in touch with one of our guards and they had agreed that in order to satisfy his injured and resentful ego, he will let the door open and after we escape, his elverin boss who used to be also his lover will get into the trouble. He will have his revenge for being discarded for younger lover and we will be totally free to roll through Underdark labyrinth. Yepeeeee! Rufus is however sceptical about future joys of our underworld journey. But first things first.
Escape plan needed some adjustments. Firstly who are we going to tell? Do we include that arrogant Drow assasin who is constantly being bored in the corner and risk that he will turn us in and spoil everything? But if we do not include him, we have no one to lead us through the labyrinth of caves. But if he agrees, can we trust him than? He could betray us and buy himself a mercy...
So far I think I will risk it. No risk no fun.
I also talked with my friend gambling dark gnome (I am terrible with names) and agreed that he would steal some fork or spoon, which I could than use as lockpick for the chains. AsI am a thief, this would be super easy to do.
My organizing was interrupted by Drows entering the cave and preparing our group for the shift. To my not very pleasant surprise first thing their boss did was that he pointed at me and claimed that today I would work elsewhere, not together with the dwarf girl, because we seem to be too much friendly towards each other. (I remember teachers doing this at primary school. Bastardos.) The Drow decided that Ella would serve the highest Everin in the dark tower nereby, (the very one which discarded one of our guards) She was allegedly mean, cruel and unpredictable. Sometimes she just gets tantrum and kills people. Awsome. What a luck. Ella could not be possibly more happy for such an undeserved honor, but at least they sended her there together with her frog friend Shusha and when he was not watching, she managed to steal one of the forks in the kitchen. Hoho. Well, Ella was supposed to serve some sort of waiting service or what it was meant to be... She did not get the chance to actually do much, because disaster happened straight away.
To Ella's great surprise she was very politely welcomed by some superiour elverin in noble looking room which gentely asked her if she could kindly broom the floor.
'Shiiit!!' my boyfriend suddenly intervened the story 'I am roleplaying her completely wrong!!'
And elverin kicked Ella in the ass and yelled 'You scum!!!'
Ella, who was completely confused from the change in the behaviour of the dark elverin, qiut failed fatally the roll for brooming. This meant that she took the broom, accidentaly hit the vase, tried to rescue the vase and hit the candle, smashed the vase, fell into the drawer of the cupboard and caused the fire of the gobelins. As she tried to extinguish fire with the broom she actually helped spredding it little bit more around the room before she was knocked out by the guards who were just to frowned and shocked to do something sooner
She woke up chained to the wall in very small cell which she concluded was solitary confinmend as a reward for her firefighting service. It was not so solitary, because the cell contained at least one poisonous spider which immediately bit her, so she spent the rest of five days there unconscious.
Now Ella is back with her fellow hord and from the poisonous bite has now only a little bit green face. She did not get any chance to actually meet the highest dark elverin, which meant my boyfriend spent approximately hour of reading and preparing of the story for nothing, but he says this is also part of being DM. For her excellent performance is Ella now on the death list, probably to be executed soon, so next session the great escape has to happen!
Oh yes, and exactly as I thought - our stuff really is in the storage room nereby. Everything is settled. It will be easy. See you on freedom!
