The escape from Wolfwing's lair

A quick inspection of the chain shows obvious wear on few of the links, the two biggest groups being one around halfway between Mistletoe's arm and the wall, the other being on the wrap itself. While this thing had no lock on it, undoing the mess created by the captor could take some time. It would probably still be quicker than trying the pulling method.

When it came to the contents of the other cell, the best thing Derrick could find (if he chose to search) was an old plate shattered to three big pieces on a mouldy wooden tray, so nothing that could be of help in this situation. While this was going on, heavy footsteps could be heard approaching the door nearest to their cells.

I chose to advance the story slightly faster than I had originally intended, since I was not sure if you would rather describe your downtime quickly or rather go into detail with a couple of posts. Do tell me if you'd rather have it handled differently so I'll know at least in the future to do it right.

Infirmary

Before Ramando had had the time to go away, he could hear a familiar voice: "I am fine, and you would do well to stop worrying about me so much." It was Brother Waladra responding to their earlier question. The monk had found himself a place to sit comfortably on, with a seat seemingly built from discarded rags and some clothes from other monks. "It is not broken, so I'll be up again by tomorrow. But I've heard that you have joined an effort to help the citizens. Just like Brother Leosin would have wanted", he continued as he shifted his injured leg on his seat.

"So indeed, rest now so that you can help them later. They need all they can have. We'll begin the more extensive search tomorrow if we have not found him by then, or at least that is what we've discussed while you were down there", he relayed the rest of his knowledge to the shining example of selflessness Brother Brightwood was in his eyes. Having said what he had to say, he leaned back and closed his eyes, muttering: "I should do the same..."

For the next hour or two, nothing that remarkable happened. A few souls sought the music they could hear coming from somewhere nearby and a few even found the source, but none dared bother the bard. Orchid and Ramando had their naps, the storyteller and the human warrior did what they thought was best. The peace was broken eventually by the biggest uproar they had heard within the keep thus far. The message was travelling from one man to another and eventually it reached all of our heroes: The dragon had chosen to attack and all able bodies were expected to report on the battlements. NOW.

@Lady Selune
I have finally found the time I was looking for. I hope my introduction post is acceptable?

Supernatural Special Weapons And Tactics: Swat S-Division [NEW CHARACTERS WELCOME!]

Jim stood in the line with the rest of the S-SWAT underlings. The 34 year old war veteran had his opinions on giving the lead to someone who had not seen a warzone as far as he could tell, let alone fought the supernatural on one, but it was not like a soldier would refuse orders from the bigger shots. The worst thing about coming here had to be the fact that they had not allowed him to take his dog to the workplace, he hadn't spent a day apart from Findlay since he got him.

Just before their chief got to introducing themselves to each other and the department the phone rang and she was off to answer it. It didn't take long from Jim to add one and one together and understand that their first mission would be firing off really soon. He wondered what the situation was like as the phone call progressed and at the end was rewarded for his patience with the information he sought: Warehouse of zombies. Indoors locale, slow opposition. A shame there would likely be tight corners the squad could be surprised from. They would need to act carefully.

Like all the others, Jim made his way to his equipment. This would be a mission that suited his more mobile approach. He carefully donned his Trooper class armour, checked that his submachinegun was ready to go and pressed his Glock into the holster. He had always hated the balaclavas, but threw it on nevertheless. The taser, a couple of stingers, few portable smoke creation tubes and the medic's arsenal could all be found on his belt and he was ready to go.

"Raiders roll", he muttered to himself as he jogged to the vehicle that they would use to make their way to the AO. As he sat down, he rubbed his gloved fingers against the ECAS emblem on his shoulder. Just like the days of old... if a bit different equipment and there would most likely be no humans trying to kill you in addition to the walking dead. He'd have to remember to put the Hollow Points into use, they had been the best for this kind of thing back in the day.

@Bishop
I am afraid you missed the final call. I am aware giving a one day warning may have been a little strict, but as things are now I will have to reject your character.

@Lord of Evil
Nope, Derrick is a different cell. Little something like this:
[L][ ][ ][ ]...
[ ][D][ ][ ]...
Where L is the ladies and D is Derrick.

Yup, as things are now there is nothing I need to add. Go on for a little while longer people.

@Dusksong
The sound is coming from somewhere along the hallway. The cells your characters are in are in relatively good shape, so prying things away without sufficient tools will be nearly impossible.

Okay, I seem to be failing all of my timetables this weekend. Let's hope I find the time to post before Tuesday.
