You have been taken to a rather dark building in Divvytown, a few candles happen to make enough light to see the sad and angreed faces of other captured pirates, and Divvytown residents. Four guards sit at a table drinking a foul smelling liquid as you are thrown in a cell along with the other unfortunate people. The cell is locked, and rather cramped but you think you can see some familiar faces in the mass of people. Perhaps they are crew mates, did they get captured too? Maybe you can plan something with them and escape!  Rules on Escaping:1 - To innitiate an escape attampt, you must roll one 100-side die. 2 - JohnnyBones will then make a Navy roll with one 100-side die. 3 - The Higher roll will be the "winner" If the Navy roll wins, the person will be re-captured, and sent back to the prison. If the PIRATE'S roll wins, the PIRATE will escape.
Group escapes are possible. Please note at the top of your Rolling Post who you are teaming with. Up to 3 PIRATES can form an Escape Team.
When making a team escape, all PIRATES roll one 100-sided die as usual, but JohnnyBones will roll X ammount of 100-sided die, where X is the number of PIRATES in the group. The Group's scores will be added, then compaired to the Navy Roll as usual.
Note: Getting Re-captured within Divvytown in very possible. Be on your guard if you do escape!

Fawkes waited till the guards were preoccupied with themselves before making his way through the sea of people, trying to find at least a familiar face. Looking around the small, cramped cell, he caught sight of Rabbit, and hurried towards him with a hopeful expression.
When he was finally standing in front of his fellow crew member, Fawkes smiled happily at seeing his friend and asked in a low whisper, "Hey, you okay? Any plans on escaping this cell?"

Rabbit shivers in spite of the fact that it's not cold. Even if it was the uncomfortable press of far too many people packed into one cell would have made the cold somewhat negligable. He picks out Fawkes face as the other man makes his way toward him through the croud. He considers Fawkes question thoughtfuly, toying with the red scarf around his neck and shifting back and forth anxiously.
Don't think about it as a cell...think about it as...just a trap. All traps have an means to unspring them again...thats how they work...a switch...a knot....an joint that can be forced....
His eyes light up at this thought, and he offers a cautious smile to Fawkes.
"Maybe?" He offers, clearing his throat nervously, as he eyes the door and bars.

"I think we might need help... Lots of it... You think that the merfolk was captured as well?" Fawkes frowned, longing for freedom again. Here they are, packed into a cell like sardines in a can. He looked around, trying to find another familiar face or two. He was sure that he there was some other crew members captured and brought here as well.
He strained his neck, but can't find anyone. Perhaps due to the rather large number of people all packed together, it seemed terribly difficult to find one person. He hoped that maybe the other captured pirates will find Rabbit and him instead.
"So... Any suggestions? I hope that they don't try to..." He whispered as a lump formed in his throat, "Well, executed us."

The merwoman's pale form was curled in one of the four corners of the cell. She was still dripping wet, having been caught in a net inthe sea and dragged about the enemy ship. She had suffered a few rope burns as well as a couple cuts on her arms. She grabbed her knees and lowered her head, long silver hair concealing her face. How was she going to get out of this one? She couldn't think of anything very useful to help them. The only thing that could play a somewhat important role in their escape was the merpeople's song. It was the song though, that the merfolk rarely liked to use. It wasn't in their moral to completely manipulate humans.
The young woman took in a shaky breath of air. It was difficult breathing the thck air with so many crowded in one area. She looke dup then, glancing about at those sitting and standing around her. Two voices drifted towards her that were familiar and she glanced to her side. It was that Fawkes and Rabbit. For a breif moment she felt as though she weren't alone, even though she knew how they felt about her. Her lime green eyes focused on the males as they spoke of possible escape plans. With that the woman stood, determined to help in any way she could think of. She pushed past a few growling men and stopped before the two men. Fawkes had questioned if she had been captured as well and she took a breath before answering.
" Yes, I was caught in the waters. " Kailani muttered, ashamed of what had happened.

"Ah, Kailani... Glad to see that you're alive and well." Fawkes smiled sympathetically at the merfolk. Judging from the tone she had used, Fawkes assumed that she must be feeling ashamed at being captured. Trying to brighten things up, he gave a nervous laugh.
"Well, it's better then being caught by falling into an obvious trap." The male sighed as he ran a hand through his hair, his cheeks tinged with a slight pale pink. He shrugged, looking at the crowd in the cell.
His mind is in a blank, and he just can't seem to come up with an idea for escaping. Maybe it was the noise of the captives, or even the condition of the cell. What ever it is, Fawkes can't think properly. Turning to Kailani and then to Rabbit, he sighed.
"Any bright ideas?"

Rabbit eyed Kailani with an strange mix of appology and sympahty, then eyes the locked cell again, clearing his throat a few times before he speaks up, tying to be both loud enough to be heard but not so loud that the guards can hear them.
"Maybe......" He nods toward the door, clearing his throat one more time and shifting his weight foot to foot. "Forse the hinges. Break the door." A pause as he looks around, waiting for disaproving looks or mockery. "Salt air...isn't good for the metal. It will rust more than normal....and there's a lot of us anyway...one person couldn't. But....between us....the hinge might break."

"That might work, but how do we get out of here?" Fawkes asked softly, glancing at the four guards to make sure they weren't listening. Turning his attention back to Rabbit, he added, "Not to mention what will happen if all of us get recaptured..."
He looked at the people around him. Most of them look tired, but if the plan work, they might be able to help evaluate it.

He chews his lip thoughtfuly, looking to the guards again, and deliberatly cricks his knuckles as he glacnes at them. "Four of them....lots more of us..." He notes, under his breath. "Might get the rush on them...."
The problem is that the guards are armed, and they're not, people could get hurt...
"Or we might start them fighting first..." He notes, eyeing their game, and clearing his throat again. He's seen fights break out over card games enough times...maybe they can start one here....

"So we initiate that one of them cheated on their card game? When they start fighting, we burst out of here and try to escape this building?" Fawkes asked, peering at the guards cautiously. "Is that what you're trying to say?"
There are only four of them, and if they're armed, they'll just have to unarm them after breaking out. He than had a weird thought as he gave a grin.
"Any of you are armed? A hidden weapon?"

A hidden weapon? Rabbit looks faintly crestfallen at this, and starts to shake his head...then stops, mutely un-knotting the red scarf from around his neck, which leaves his scar more open to view, and pantomimes using it as a kind of garotte with a shrug, though the idea makes him a little sick to his stomach. "Yes..." He notes. "Thats the idea....and we do have...sort of weapons. Belts...scarves..."

Fawkes shook his head slowly, "If you're uncomfortable with using it, don't do it..." He gave a faint smile at finishing his sentence, and peered at the guards again before turning his attention back to his fellow crew members.
"I do have my dagger with me, but it won't be competition to guns... If the guards have them." Fawkes begun with a frown as he ran a hand through his hair in mild frustration, "But you're right... I bet a belt can cause enough damage if used with force, like a whip?"

He wraps the scarf around his knuckles thoughtfuly at this, though, glancing at the guards once more. Regardless of weather or not they killed them, they were going to have to try and get out of here...."Yes...I think so. Especially with the buckle..."
((Dragain, if you and Skadi or Meemo wanna try and do jail break we can make a roll for it?))

"So, shall we do this?" Fawkes asked, his tone firm with determination although he was feeling nervous and a little fearful of the consequences. He looked at Rabbit and then to Kailani, waiting for their answer.
{I'm fine with either single or group. ^^
I'll roll after you.}
