THROUGH DARK AND TWIST [FORUM RPG']
Posts
I've never played this kind of game before so i'm confused about my stats, did the D6 turn me into a mage/farmer hybrid? I have medium pow and int and low agi, also what is sika? is it the currency in the game?

Mid-tantrum you feel one of the bars slip in it's hold. You kick it a few times and it clangs, falling free of its confines into the area just outside your cell and rolls away, towards the darker area outside. You peek after it and can make out a line of three cells opposite you.
The one directly across is empty, the door wide open. It looks to be the same as the one you're currently in, though set up a little differently.
The one to the left is shrouded in darkness and you can make out little more than what seems to be a bucket near the bars.
The one to the right is lit a bit brighter than yours, seemingly closer to some kind of torch. Inside you can just make out what appears to be a young man with blonde hair, holding an odd piece of wood covered in what looks to be cloth. He appears absorbed in his own little world and does not appear to notice you.

You hear some loud clanging coming from a cell across and to the left from you. There appears to be a young woman with pink hair inside, peeking out at you through the bars.

You hear a loud banging in what seems to be the cell next to yours, followed by the sound of something metal rolling past your cell, coming to a stop near the bars near the cell opposite you.

You may leave your cell at any time now that the door is open.

Your nightmares are broken by the loud clanging of something metal. A silence falls after one especially loud metallic clang and then the sound of something rolling across the floor, getting closer to you. You look around, finding yourself in a small room. It's almost too dark to see, but there appears to be a bucket in one corner and a table in the other. The pallet on which you lie is thin and cold, the meagre blanket laying over you doing little to fend off the chill.
You check your pockets, finding the carved doll in there. Your knee pads are still strapped up, but all else bar the clothes on your back is gone.

"HEY! This one came off! Ooooh! It's a person!"

"Hello blonde-guy! Hello! What's your name and do you happen to know where we are?"

Farmer starts with CON 5, POW 3, AGI 3 and INT 1. You added 2 to CON and POW and 1 to AGI. This gives you CON 7, POW 5, AGI 4 and INT 1. You also have the added effect of armour, which gives you POW and CON +1, making CON 8, POW 6.
That said, I got AGI/INT switched. I'll fix that (and double-check everyone else's. Good catch! )
And yes, Sika is the currency. Or -a- currency.
Also, when interacting in the future with each other it might help to do a bolded @name for easy seeing.
I hear that loud voice again and I think to myself: if this girl continues shouting like that, she might attract attention from potential guards, which would be far from ideal, seeing as I'm in the cell next to her.
I knock against the dividing wall and whisper towards the cell nex to me: "Stop making such a ruckus! Who knows what the guards will do when they hear you scream like that."

I state up at the ceiling. My gaze drifts across the cell walls. I feel a strong itchy sensation but I ignore it.
"Oh, brilliant."
I mutter. I grab the wine and go to the cell door, looking for whatever made the rolling sound. While I'm at it, I look into the bucket.

I look out side my cell. I wonder where the light is coming from. I bring my eyes as close to the source as I can.
Lit peeks meekly out through the bars, seeing the pink haired girl, and hearing another voice with warning. Male?
Carefully heeding the warning about the guards, Lit softly speaks, so as not to rouse any such trouble.
"P-perhaps, the exchange of pleasantries can wait as yet. Fore, this p-present p-perdicament has us in quite the mess. Alas, we are stuck."
Lit looks mournfully at the cell bars, shaking each one carefully. "All is lost, should I remain here."

I take the copper coins and wonder how long they've been forgotten here, left to rust.
Trying to move as quietly as possible
I step towards the table and inspect it.

It is hard for you to see but a meagre light shines through the bars, just enough to illuminate the area near the door. On the floor outside the bars, within reaching distance, is some kind of metal pole or rod. It is long and looks quite hefty - you could probably use it as a weapon or a tool of some kind.
You glance at the bucket. It is an old thing, stained with years of use. Thankfully, going by the smell that lingers near it, it is empty. You cannot really see around it that well due to the low light, though.

You peer through the bars, not sure what you'll find. There must be a torch near you because you can see rather well. Across from your cell is a copy of your own, lit by the dim light. It appears to be empty, the door wide open.
To the right of to it is another cell, harder to see as the light tapers off into darkness. You can just about make out another person in there, a man with red hair.
To the left of the cell is a recess and a large wooden door blocks whatever is behind it from view. It appears to lead into another room.

The bars appear to be quite sturdy, though a few have a light coating of rust. Looking out through them you can see that you appear to be in a small room full of cells. Across from you is an empty cell, well lit by the light that hangs from the wall also opposite you.
To the left of the cell is the one with the girl with pink hair. You can barely make out her details in the low light. To the left of that cell is another and you cannot see much of it besides the bars.
To the right of you there is a large wooden door, blocking the view into the room beyond.

The table appears to be old and scratched up with words in foreign languages. It's impossible to make out what any of it says, since they've been carved over each other time and again. You inspect the legs of the table and notice something off about one of them: there appears to be a piece of wood that can pop out. You do so and find a small carved hollow in the side of the leg!
Inside is a pair of small metal pieces that you identify as lockpicks.

+2 Lockpicks

Editing content in posts is fine before I or someone else has responded to your post. Make the edit, copy it, refresh the page to check that no-one has responded, then post. That'll be fine.
Editing for spelling/grammar/etc is fine and dandy, though. >.<)b
Lit looks to see just how far the metal bar on the ground is from his cell. Would he be able to reach it with the use of the torch?
Finding one way barred impossibly is but one problem. Lit searches the bed/pillow for anything of use.
#Inspect bed/pillow.

I grab the bar, then investigate the bed.
------------------------------Cell ???, Cellblock ?----------------------------------------

The sound of the bar rolling was away from your cell, so you give the idea up as impossible.
Instead you turn out the bed. It is a pallet of straw - old straw at that - and the threadbare blanket on the top of it is full of holes. You tear apart the pillow, also made of straw, and inside find a small stash of coins. They are like no coins you have ever seen, square-shaped and silver. You add them to your pack.
+6 small square coins (They count as currency and will be added to your money pouch, not counting as a space in your pack.)

You reach through the bars of your cell and manage to grab the metal bar. It is very solid and heavy - an exact replica of the cell bars you are currently reaching through. Looking out into the area beyond you can see three cells. The angle only allows you to see into two of them - the one opposite you and the one to the right of it.
In the cell opposite you can make out the figure of a man, his white hair picking up highlights even in the meagre lighting. He appears furtive and scared, not looking at you.
In the cell to the right of his, lit up a bit more and thus more easily visible, is a pink haired woman. She appears to have been the source of the yelling earlier and you can see that her cell is now missing a bar - likely the one you have just grabbed from the ground. She seems rather distraught, tears leaking down her face - far too occupied with her own woes to have noticed you yet.
You pull the bar into your cell and give it a closer look. It is heavy and would make a great bludgeoning weapon. Alternatively, you could use it to try and pry the door open, though that would probably make a lot of noise.
You turn and investigate the bed - a straw pallet with a thin blanket on top. The blanket looks rotted through, destroyed from age and use. The straw beneath it seems stale as well, compacted down from sleeping bodies. It smells awful but you pat about it trying to find anything of use.
Unfortunately your search turns up nothing.

Wielding the bar I cast Fire Blossom on the lock of my cell door.
------------------------------Cell ???, Cellblock ?----------------------------------------

The metal grows hot under the flame but soon cools off - Fire Bloom being more of a fireball than a sustained flame, it is impossible to heat the metal so much as to make it melt, though the fire did light up the area a bit more, allowing you to see more of your cell. It was momentary, however.

3/3
------------------------------Cell ???, Cellblock ?----------------------------------------

A sharp burst of light coming from the cell across from you catches your attention, as does the wash of heat. In the moment you can see a man throwing flames at the door of the cell. The heat and light recede quickly, though, leaving you in seemingly darker environs than before.

3/3
Your door is open and you may leave your cell at any time.
------------------------------Cell ???, Cellblock ?----------------------------------------

A quick burst of flame erupts from the cell opposite-left of you, and you can just make out the image of a man for a split second before the light is gone.

3/3
------------------------------Cell ???, Cellblock ?----------------------------------------

You hear the sound of a burst of flame from somewhere to the left of you, and light blooms in the darkness of that area for a mere moment, highlighting further the pink-haired girl in her cell across the room. It quickly disappears, however, and the area is plunged into near-darkness once more.

Your dreams are filled with memories of drinking in the bars of your youth, and you roll in your sleep, content with those memories.
Soon you will awaken from your dreams into a harsh and cold reality...
(what can I say? the RNG gods didn't favour you unfortunately >.<; )
Roux:
Judging from the scribbles and the lockpicks I just found, it looks like other prisoners have been here before.
I am confused about the latter discovery though: Two lockpicks hidden inside the furniture...
That could mean that a former prisoner managed to escaped... but why would they leave lockpicks here?
Countless questions arise in my head as
I move towards the bucket to inspect it.
