Welcome to Gaia! ::

Volmag looked down upon his new roomates only for a moment. As soon as the bars shut closed and the locks click in place he throws his body against the bars with his massive strength letting out a shot but loud roar of effort as he slams his bulk into the metal. He know the bars wont break, maybe bend, but not break, he just wanted to see the fear of a drow. He turns back to his small cellmates grinning his toothy smile "When ze Volamg attacksh, he will kill." a small bit of spit issues from his mouth as he emphasizes the word "kill" he flexes his body letting the muscless bulge from the exertion "but ze Volmags will not kill you, not in cage..." he glances around the walls that encase them growling as he does before moving to sit down with his back against the wall facing the bar doors.

Volmag is completely disenterested taking a deep breath and breathing directly at Aiko. He seems much more calm than before and seems preoccupied with the metal ring about his neck which after a few moments of tampering he attempts to remove. Gripping boths sides with his massive hands his arms go rigid as he urges his muscles to force the small thing to break.

((Strength check, +6))

-Aiko blinked as Volmag breathed on her, pulling back a bit and walking back towards her little corner-

"I'll take that as your alright, ok."

-Listening to Aidan, she couldn't help herself, giggling wildly and falling over onto the floor, looking up at Aidan now. After a minute, she sat up and leaned in, whispering back-

"Tee hee, I've seen goblins act smarter then an Orc could ever act! I hope the Drow don't question him too much, he might die trying to think of an answer for them."

((yeah, I figured they allowed the Drow to cause us pain whenever they felt the need to...sadistic as Drow are heh))

I laugh a bit, watching the Orc fail to touch the collar "I wonder how long he will attempt to grasp it before he finally realizes it's impossible" I walk over to the Orc and pat him on the back "as much fun as it is to watch you, you should know that strength isn't going to get you out of that collar. Don't you think they'd think of someone trying that? You're going to have to use that grain of sand you call a brain if you want out of here. Lucky for you, we may have use of your brute strength if we find an opportunity to escape."

-Aiko started to think about their situation. The orc that was thrown into their cell was threatening to kill them outside of their cell, Aidan and her needed to figure out some plan of escape to return to the surface and they needed to do it quick, or either Aidan and her were going to end up stomped on by a brainless orc, or the Drow were going to have their way.-

"Aidan, lemme try and reason with him."

-she said as she walked forward a bit-

"Volmag, although we are in a tight situation and we're in a place where we're fighting for sake of profit for others, I believe that if we turned our attention otherwise to other ideas, like escaping from the Underdark, we can find all other sorts of things to kill for ya, sound good?"

In the middle of the conversation, the metal door flings open, revealing a drow male, almost six feet tall and much more build and rugged than any normal drow. His hair is long and wild, hanging over his face, which has a scar running down his left eye. He wears his usual plate mail armour, jest black and encrested with his houses symbol. Aiko and Aidan recognize him imediatly, as he is Feraner, Master of the slaves of House Menoriana. Behind him are some gaurds, waiting paticiently. They wore chain mail armour, each with a sword by his side and crossbows slung across thier backs. "Up, all of you maggot's." he ordered, his tone harsh and impacient. "You've had enough free time today. It's time for you to do a few warm up match's. We can't have you lose your edge after all."

((before the drow's entrance))

Volmag looks up at the small woman before him his eyes following her small body "You iss too small, Volmagsh not kills you oontil Volmag kill all else." he looks back down fiddling with his collar until the drow enter upon which he turns to look at the drow he tilts his head kilter looking at the man strangely as if confused "Volmag...kill now?" he smiles "Yes Volmagsh will kill." He stands up looking down upon the drow, his eyes are filled with bloodlust, as a small amount of drool issues from his mouth. The image is that of an animal about to be unleashed upon his first meal.

"I don't need the responses, I just need you to haul your asses to the training grounds on the double!" Of course, training grounds was a a understatment. Aiko and Aidan knew full well that that was double talk of the House battlegrounds, where the slave teams fought to the death so that the greatest team would be selected to compete in the real arena. "Move it you dogs!" Feraner snapped, moving swftly down the hall with his usual elfin grace. They took a group of stairs down to the side, going down to the lower level of the compound. Soon, the floor underfoot becme hard rock, and the pungent smell of blood and sweat grew thick in the air. When they reached the end of it, they saw the arena that stood before them. The place was crude, almost savage looking. The pen that kept the combatens in was nothing more than wooden planks, almost twenty feet high and covered in cruel looking spiked barbs. The arena floor was only dirt, along with the occasional splatter of blood and body parts. It appeard that a "Match" had just ended, and the victor stood alone in the middle. It was a lone goblin, wearing tattered rags and face paint apon his skin. He wore a collar around his neck his neck a bit more exentric than the other's, as well as two more around his wrists and ankles. Around him, three creatures layed dead. They were huge monstrositys, with giant hooks for hands and mighty beaks appon thier faces. Their skin seemed to be made of black chitain, covering them like a armour. But these had been blow to bits in places, and now thry layed dead on the arena floor. "Get him out of here!" Feraner shouted, making the drow observing open the pen and allow the goblin to half hearted exit. "Now, you three are next up." he said as he shoved Aiko towards the arena door.
