This is harder than I thought! The nails put some pressure on my wrists... It's so hard to even move my arms without feeling anything at all!

Perhaps I was not clear earlier. I mean, with all this intensity just to free myself...

I only cut the ropes off. The nails are still intact. I don't feel like pulling them out; I don't have anything to bandage the open wounds.

I... I guess I'll keep them on until I find some bandages.

I grab the knife. It seems to be fairly new, save for the fresh blood stains over it.

So the nails weren't nailed into anything? If they we set into the wall, I imagine that would've been tough to pull them away. Anyway, stop looking at your hands. They look fine (oddly enough). So take a load off for a moment and study your surroundings. How many doors? Windows? Other useful bits?

They're nailed through my fucking wrists, that's what.

Well the point of nails is to Connect Object A to object B, like a portrait to a wall. But to just put it through your wrists... well we may be dealing with a sadist. By the way, hungry much? You kind of should be. Also examine the holes first, carefully, and then the door if there's nothing more of interest in the room itself.

No. 125173 ID: 632862

It's probably activated by moving between it and the wall, so that it wouldn't trigger unless something's there to SMASH (like your head). So, ducking under it would not activate it.

The stones retract back into the walls. Take it slowly and methodically down the hallway. Make sure that you check the roof, the walls and the floor before you move forward and then to it again after a few steps.
>>
No. 125222 ID: e828f5

Don't. Move. I think the first trap, the one that got the rat, withdrew. Which means it's probably rearmed and will GET YOU if you move forward. I know it's a bit difficult to be perceptive with one eye, but you've got to make due. When you feel you've got a good idea of your surroundings, step over the first trap, but beware because I think there's another one, mid-level, on the right, coming up.

You know, on second thought it'd be a better idea to retrieve the rat tail and then drop it in the trap's path to re-trigger it. That way there's no chance you stumble or otherwise fail your Jump Check.

Do cameras exist in this day and age? Most people would want to watch their victims suffer. Not many are content with simply knowing a victim is suffering. They want to see it and feel it and hear it. They are watching you somehow. Yes, you are their entertainment. But something will go horribly wrong and you will escape beyond their grasp and then you will seek them out and kill them. The important part is being alive and unhurt enough to kill them when you get there. Rule number 1: Don't get hurt.

Terrible afterthought: you might need to get your former eyeball to use as a trap triggering device.

That mousehole back there is possibly trapped with a guillotine device. It still might contain something useful if you can bypass the maybe trap.

Cute some bandages from the sheets. They might not exactly be clean but hey you have possibly rusty and dirty nails still embeded in your arms so I don't think infections are a primary concern right now.

Also twist some of the sheet into a rope with a knot in the middle. Use it as an improvised garrote. One can never have to many weapons, atleast not when you're trapped in a dungeon owned by a sadist who likes to gouge out the eyes of little kids.

Here are the spells that I found out, though:

Fire: Lvl 1 - No Req - Verbal - "APOY!"
Water: Lvl 1 - No Req - Verbal - "TUBIG!"
Earth: Lvl 1 - Target must be underneath mud or stone - Visual - Wave left hand, scooping motion from floor to target.
Air: Lvl 1 - Can only be used when around air - Visual - Wave left hand, swinging motion from left to right
Stone Wall: Lvl 2 - No Req - Verbal - "PADER NA BATO!"
