Jailed!
|

.PP
|
|
This is a pirate themed escape dungeon. The player characters wake up,
|
|
each in an individual cell just with normal clothes one. Obviously they
|
|
have been captured by pirates and are held prisoners. It's designed for
|
|
four player characters. The GM should assign, which character starts in
|
|
which prison cell. If there are more than four characters, double
|
|
occupancy would be an option. It was originally written with classic D&D
|
|
in mind, but then play tested with GURPS 3rd Edition. I reproduce it
|
|
here system agnostic. It's all not that complicated.

The Prison Cells
|
|
.IP 1
|
|
A dark and dank prison cell. Nothing special here, no loose stones
|
|
or anything.
|
|
The door is made from wood and has a small barred opening, through which
|
|
the player character who's incarcerated here can
|
|
.B "see the guards and talk to them" .
|
|
.IP 2
|
|
Another simple jail call. When the guards talk, they can still be
|
|
overheard clearly from here. In the dirt under the simple wooden
|
|
bed a
|
|
.B "rusty dagger"
|
|
can be found.
|
|
.IP 3
|
|
This cell seems to be just the same as the first, however when the
|
|
character closely examines the door they find that the upper hinge is
|
|
quite loose. This
|
|
.B "door could be broken open"
|
|
with some moderate force.
|
|
.IP 4
|
|
This is the darkest cell. In northeastern corner of the wall are some
|
|
conspicuously loose stones. Careful removal of the stones will reveal
|
|
a low
|
|
.B "crawlspace that leads to a natural cave system" .
|
|
.IP 5
|
|
An
|
|
.B "orcish guard" ,
|
|
armed with an axe and clad in chainmail always sits
|
|
here to have an eye on the prisoners. Though 30% of the time he
|
|
is asleep and snores loudly.
|
|
.IP 6
|
|
Quarter of the orcish guards. There's some roughly made wooden
|
|
furniture, two beds, some stale, greasy
|
|
.B provisions ,
|
|
rope, some
|
|
.B torches ,
|
|
flint and steel. 30% of the time a second orcish
|
|
guard sleeps here. He's got a rusty sabre, and leather armor.

The Hallway
|
|
.IP *
|
|
Everytime the character arrive at the marked part of the hallway
|
|
roll the encounter die: 1 in 6, the characters hear
|
|
noises from somewhere up the stairs: a
|
|
door opening and closing, and then footsteps. Moments later
|
|
.B "1d3 Pirates"
|
|
and one orcisch guard come down the corridor.
|
|
.IP 7
|
|
.B "The Treasure Room"
|
|
Here's where the pirates keep their treasure. In any case, there's
|
|
more than the PCs could possibly carry. Look at
|
|
.B "treasure type E"
|
|
for ideas. Notably there are
|
|
.B "two swords and two shields"
|
|
in the hoard.
|
|
Each of which have a 10% chance of being magical.
|
|
.IP
|
|
In front of the door there are some conspicuous holes in the walls
|
|
hinting quite obviously at a
|
|
.B "spear trap" .

The Pirates Hideout
|
|
.IP 8
|
|
.B "Empty Attic"
|
|
This room is empty, both doors open according to the usual rules.
|
|
.IP 9
|
|
.B "Pirates Bedroom"
|
|
Here is where the pirates sleep. 30% of the time a drowsy pirate sleeps
|
|
here. There are some woolen blankets and two usable rucksacks here.
|
|
.IP 10
|
|
.B "The Mess"
|
|
This is the main room of the pirate hideout. The building is stands at
|
|
top of a small beach, partly build into the cliffs. There's jungle all
|
|
around the beach.
|
|
.IP
|
|
There are always two pirates present plus the cook. On the walls there
|
|
are various and sundry sabres, spears and three crossbows.
|
|
.IP
|
|
The simple landing pier is where the pirate ship will be docked 20% of
|
|
the time. There are 10 Pirates aboard. If the ship is here, it will
|
|
leave in 6 hours and return in two days.
|
|
.IP 11
|
|
.B "Storage Room"
|
|
here are various pieces of wood, large coils of rope and a few boxes with
|
|
iron spikes and nails.

|
|
.B1
|
|
The crawlway from the fourth prison cell leads to a natural tunnel that
|
|
slopes downward for about 70 feet in a southerly direction. The floor is
|
|
very slippery. At the end of the slope is a large irregular shaped water
|
|
filled cave, about 40 x 50 feet large. Characters who fall and slip down
|
|
the slope plunge into the water which is cold and salty. Some 3 to 6 feet
|
|
above the water surface is a domed cave ceiling. There are two exits
