Hehe, much as this'd be awesome - wouldn't it be better RP'd with a DM involved?

It would be Berosion, but there could be two jailbreak options.

One-the normal Jailbreak-awesome.

Two-the DM+Normal Jailbreak-"l33t hax0r5" Awesome.

Problem solved, if the great Howland and his DM team can fix this up. Seems... Fairly easy for a good scripter. Hard for a novice scripter like me who still uses the Lilac Soul scripting.

Off topic, but part of my soul went away when I typed the leetspeak.

No thanks, not an option we want to see while you are in jail. The mere fact that every rogue mechanically would be able to escape from a well guarded, patrolled, well lit area with multiple noisy clanky doors on the way out you have to get past is just plain bizzare.

Any jailbreak that doesn't involve an active DM on that allows for the attempt is metagaming the guards and the situation.

"99.9" precent sure we all share the same feeling that there should be no scripted jailbreaks for a number of reasons that I can't even totally recall. For one, and probably the most prominent reason, it makes pretty little sense. There are cell guards at each cell, and with the high population of rogues in Sanctuary, it would be silly if the Watch couldn't suddenly keep a single one contained. Also, jailbreaks, even DM run ones, tend to be a bit (sometimes a lot) of a headache anyway, and every rogue who's played for more than a few hours earning an unscripted get out of jail free card will create unneeded migraines for both Watchmen and the players who play them.

I can see jailbreaks being a real possibility if you're smart/cool enough (and, to be honest, if we like the character and dislike the circumstances) but a scripted way out isn't going to happen :)

Put your efforts into not getting caught!

Or just get a key. There's a lot of Privates wandering around, mug one of them!

Always have a DM though. Always. Private Fats will cry if you try to escape without one.

Important to note: you still -have- to get a DM for this. It's still metagaming to use a key to open up the cells to escape when you have the NPCs right there. It probably isn't a very wise idea in the first place, as there'd have to be a pretty good reason to be arrested while carrying one of those around.
