Greetings everyone. I am currently playing a campain and me and my group have just been captured and brought to a prison on a remote island.It all went down like so:
We left Waterdeep and were on our way to Berdusk to seek aid from the Harpers. On our way there we were ambushed by Orcs. All we know is that we traveled very far into a dessert, and then after being intimidated there, we were dragged to a boat, sailed a long way, and now were on some island in a jail like Alcatraz. Does anyone know anything about where I am and tips on how to get out? It would be most apreciative. And don't worry, our DM told us anything we read or hear about, is like we picked it up listening in inns.
Thank you. |

Well, when we got captured from around Berdusk, they beat us pretty bad. We awoke in a wagon with metal walls and floor. I think they were like this to keep it even warmer in there than it actually is. We travelled really, really fast. Then after a while of questioning us, by a man with dark features. We couldn't really see him. All I know is that he summoned a huge demon-snamelike creaure from another plabe, and e managed to break an enchantment that Elminster placed on one of the characters a long time ago. Then we were thrown back into the wagon, and brought to a body of water, no dock, no city I don't think, the wagon just ran/flew/slid, whatever, right into the water and did all kinds of zig zags around, then we entered somee doorway and a long tunnel, where 2 guards told us "Welcome to the 9 hells" or the Abyss or something like that. Anyway, that's where we been.That was 1 week ago and I haven't played yet. We're playing next week and any info could help me. Thank you all fellow adventurers.

Uther, do you remember anything about the desert you were taken to? Did you board a boat from a port in a town\city or just from a cove or something? If there was any civilisation in the desert then it would likely be Calimshan rather than Anauroch. From there then my fellow scribes and I can try and research a particular set of islands.

Could you tell us what the level of your group?
So we'll be able to look at the proper sites. |

Well I didn't get a chance to see any of the outer island, because I was just thrown into this retched place. No it's not over run by orcs it's all "humans". Also, I don't think that the DM is making this up. He's a DM who only uses store bought adventures, or actual places from the realms. Aparently the Warden of the prison is very evil. They said if you cross his path, he takes you and brings you to his island, where gods only know what goes on there. |

Reading your description, my guess would be somewhere in the Sea of Fallen Stars.

That was my original thought Mumadar, however I changed my mind when it seemed more logical from the description to be Calimshan, as its a desert on the coast, therefore the prisoners would be taken straight from desert to a boat being as no mention of further land travel occured upon reaching the desert. Still its all very sketchy and anything could have happened  Getting out of the prison is the main thing now i guess |

Closest I can think of right now. |

Hmmmmmm, well it sounds like you were taken from around Berdusk over to Calimshan where you were later taken to a boat. I can only assume that you traveled to a small island off the Sword Coast, maybe only an uncharted huge chunk of rock instead of an island!? Did you see much of the island? Was it a dedicated prison island (much like Alcatraz) or were there other settlements? Is the prison run by orcs?
It sounds likely that this isnt canon and has been created by the DM.
As for getting out......  |
