Replace the {} with square brackets and you should be good to go.

Burning would like me to clarify that the fact his PC is a priest should not be assumed to be IC knowledge for any of the PCs. I mention it in the beginning narrative because Lyei knows what he is, after all.

The guards are out of the room, at least for now. There's a nice big locked door between the PCs and them, in fact.

Wicke, I cracked up when I read your first post in the game.

Nondescript Man rolled a 2 on his Will save, by the way.

Oh, yeah.

Please roll skill checks in the IC thread. (You can keep the result of your current roll, Cadence.)

If you use a spell/power/whatever, mention that in the IC thread.

I like to enclose OOC text such as that in the IC thread using brackets like this.

[Knowledge:Arcana check below]

or something like that.

Or

[Read Thoughts]

You don't need to go and add that to your recent posts; just remember in future.

Syntax such as

OOC: Read Thoughts

works too.

The idea is to keep OOC talk in the IC thread to a minimum, but it's OK for skill rolls and similar things pertaining to the environment or game mechanics (such as asking questions about the manacles).

Yep, you guys don't have any armor at the moment, either.

Wicke, I'll need a Bluff check for that (although I like the story Nim used). You never know what might have a high Sense Motive modifier.

You know, I was originally thinking that the manacles on each of the PCs were binding the PC's wrists behind their backs, but not actually attached to a wall. I really don't want to make Wicke change Nim's "shackled to a wall" comment, though.

Nah. I'll assume Nim was using creative license. (Wicke, you can change the wording if you want, but you don't have to. If you do, I just hope you preserve the general sense of the comment.)

Yeah, the PCs still have all their clothes. Assume that everyone was searched before being brought in, though.

Her fingers are pretty much just tied together with stout cord.

If any of the PCs have been jailed before, these guys really aren't as thorough as say, Mercykillers. There's a certain makeshift quality to their procedures.
