A couple of forward notes;

Forgive me for being rusty. It's been a while.
Lister has been dealt with and I request the Children of the Light respect my decision on the matter and take it no further, and do not let it hinder his clanning process.
I try and make questioning logs a little different. We've all seen enough toes ripped off. Hence why I dream up other ideas, let me know if you like/dislike.

Enjoy.

Tall and bulky, this young man stands over 6 feet tall and has shoulders a
pace wide. Long, black hair and a beard cut short to the face frame his
dark green eyes. He seems to see right through you as he determinedly
strides past.

Lister is in excellent condition.

Lister nods slowly.

A well-traveled merchant leaves north.

Lister says 'I believe you are mistaken. But the Hand is always right...'

Lorcam says 'Guards.'

A pike has been raised here for showing off trophies.

Lorcam says 'GUARDS!'

Lorcam says 'Seize this man!'

Lister sits down and rests.

A Child of Light Lieutenant has arrived from the west.

Lister stops resting, and clambers on his feet.

Lorcam grabs Lister by the collar.

Lister says 'I am sorry, Hand Lorcam.'

Lorcam says 'Guards, bring escort me and the prisoner to my dungeon.'

Lister says 'I do have one thing that might belong to you.'

Lister nods slowly.

Lister says 'I was fighting a darkfriend Seanchan the other day.'

Lorcam says 'This may be the last time you see this place out of the headsmans noose.'

Lorcam peers closely at him, trying to figure him out.

Lister says 'And he had on his person... A cloak of the hand of light.'

Lorcam says 'Are you trying to bribe me?'

Lister shakes his head.

Lister says 'I believe it belongs to Hand Moriana.'

Lorcam says 'Well, I will have your personal possesions searched shortly.'

Lister says 'It had the crook embroidered on it.'

Auron mutters that it sounded like bribery, whilst eating some popped corn.

Lister nods in agreement.

Lorcam says 'I am sure it will be brought to me anyway.'

Lister says 'Of course. '

Lorcam says 'For now, you are under my arrest.'

Lorcam says 'You will not speak unless you are addressed.'

Lister looks around nervously.

Lister nods at Lorcam.

Lorcam takes one more look at Lister, disgust filling his eyes.

-Leave. Arrive in Mantelar Chapel.-


Lister hits his knees.

Lister begs and grovels to the powers that be.

Lorcam grabs you by the collar, and lifts you up.

Lister looks amazingly scared.

Lorcam does not flinch at your weight. His large frame seems bigger in this small place.

Lister settles into your hold and meets your eyes evenly with a sullen stare.

Lorcam growls, 'You heathen. You have no right to pray here, like lightfaring men do!

Lister says 'Permission to speak?'

Lorcam snarls, and throws you against the cement wall.

Lorcam says 'You boy, are not taking me seriously.'

Lister hits the ground with a loud 'thud!'

Lorcam says 'You think because you are an acolyte, you have a free pass?'

Lorcam says 'You think I cannot touch you?'

Lister shakes his head.

Lister says 'You have shown that much...'

Lorcam does not seem to realise he is shouting, spittle flying from his lips.

Lister winces back.

Lorcam does not notice as all the men and women here flee the chapel.

Lister says 'I only came to learn sir.'

Lister sputters in his speech.

Lister says 'I wish to serve the light!'

Lorcam says 'But you sold yourself.'

Lister shakes his head.

Lorcam says 'You have commited the unspeakable crime.'
Lister says 'Never!'

Lister says 'I would rather die a thousand deaths!'

Lister says 'Than broke one rule of the way of the light...'

Lorcam says 'Stand up, you infidel!'

Lister stands up.

Lorcam says 'You will get to see where I do my best work.'
Lister looks around nervously.

Lorcam begins to laugh, his eyes turn wild.

A Child of Light Lieutenant has arrived from the south.

Lister shudders.

A stoneslab slides open underfoot.

Atop a Landing
This small chamber seems to serve more as a landing than anything else, a
winding spiral staircase leads downward into darkness. The stone steps are
uniformly cut, created with a near military precision. They seem to have
been carved ages ago, their corners worn from frequent traveling. Light
enters from pinpoints in the ceiling, illuminating a lever on the wall.
[ obvious exits: S U ]
Lister has arrived from above.

Lorcam drags you through the tunnels.

Entrance to the Dungeons
A chiseled spiral staircase in the corner leads upward and strangely muted
light and sounds stream from somewhere above, reminders that civilization
still exists. Underground avenues lead westward and southward, deeper into
a dungeon of stone. The echoes in this corner are distorted, and strange
sounds seem to come from every direction.
[ obvious exits: N S W ]
Lister has arrived from the north.

Lister bellows 'Noooo!'

The Rack
This curtained-off section of a much larger stone hall is dominated by a
massive rack. The rack seems to be a moveable wood-and-metal contraption
with clamps for the feet and wrists. Its two ends can be stretched apart or
pushed together by a system of cranks and pulleys. A straight-backed wooden
chair sits facing the rack, within reach of a large metal crank. A thin
stone staircase leads up towards the Chamber of Truth.

Lister has arrived from above.

Lorcam turns back to you.

Lorcam says 'Shut up. Did I say speak?'

Lister gets a plate of roast potatoes and turnips from a backpack.

Lister eats a plate of roast potatoes and turnips.

Lorcam begins pacing the small area.

Lister sighs loudly.

Lister eye's cast towards the ground.

Lister all emotion has been lost from his lifeless body.

Lorcam says 'What to do.....'

Lorcam looks you up and down.

Lorcam says 'Get up.'

Center of the Prison
Surrounded by small prison cells, the corridor widens slightly at the
center nonetheless. The bars on the cells to the east and west appear thick
and sturdy, untouched by time. The cells themselves seem somewhat spacious,
though they are for the most part shrouded in darkness. A small candelabra
hangs from a chain in the center of the ceiling, providing muted
illumination for the main corridor between cells.

A Fortified Jail Cell
This cell seems to have been fortified, though it is unsure whether
measures were taken against escape or attack. The bars on the cell's door
are twice as thick as would seem necessary, and all of the niches within
the room have been filled in with plaster and stone. Screened torches
brighten the bare room, allowing no part of it to fall into shadow.

Lorcam says 'Or another living soul, except that little spider.'

Lister says 'Please let me speak... I have done no wrong!'

Lorcam says 'In the dark, alone.'

Lister bursts into tears.

Lorcam says 'I may never come back.'

Lorcam says 'And no one will come and look for you.'

Lister says 'This is a misunderstanding...'

Unused Cell
Without even a door to close it off this unused prison cell is threatening
nonetheless. The iron bars that make the wall to the north have a place for

Lister has arrived from the north.

Lister ponders life, the universe, and everything.

Lorcam laughs, his voice echos out amoungst the hallways.

Lorcam says 'Perhaps I should pay my cleaner more.'

Lister visibly moves back.

Lister cringes in terror!

Lorcam smiles brightly as he examines the room.

Lorcam pulls a small cord from his pocket.

Lister looks on closely.

Lorcam says 'Now, you may have heard stories about us....'

Lister shakes his head.

Lorcam says 'Tongs. Pokers, Pulling off toenails.'

Lorcam says 'I am different.'

Lorcam says 'I have no need for tools.'

Lorcam says 'I always get the answer I want.'

Lister looks relieved.

Lister nods at Lorcam.

Lorcam says 'Admittedly it can be too late to save the prisoner by the time I get that answer...'

Lorcam says 'But I do it all by myself.'

Lister looks shocked.

Lorcam folds his arms. Massive biceps ripple.

Lister nods slowly.

Lister says 'What must be done, in the lights name.. Must be done...'

Lorcam removes his cloak, helmet and breastplate, leaving only his gauntlet on.

Lorcam says 'Lister. I have eye witnesses stating they heard you ask for the aid of a Witch.'

Lorcam says 'How do you plead?'

Lister looks disparingly at the folded cloak on the ground, wishing it was still on it's wearer.

A dungeon maintainer leaves north.
Lister looks at Lorcam.

Lister says 'I plead Innocent, Hand Lorcam.'

Lorcam says 'Tell me your story.'
Lister takes to his knees

Lister says 'My... Story, sir?'

Lorcam's face changes. The maddness fades for a moment.

Lorcam says 'Tell me your story.'

Lister says 'Well... It's not much really. I was born in the city of Elmora, in Tarabon...'

Lorcam fingers a ring he wears around a chain that touches his bare chest, and smiles to himself.

Lister says 'My Da is a barrister and my Ma a lady'

Lister says 'My sister...'

Lister says 'Well.. She was taken by Aes Sedai a few years back.. And died in their custody. They said she got sick.'

Lister says 'Sick.. with the power!'

Lister snarls angrily.

Lorcam hums to himself as he plays with the chain, his eyes drift out of focus.

Lister says 'They said it happens every once in a awhile and can't be prevented. Only if they came sooner.'

A dungeon maintainer has arrived from the north.

Lister says 'I... I can't stand to think of it.'

Lister starts to form tears in the edges of his eyes.

Lorcam says, his voice touched by no anger now, 'Tell me about what happened the night I captured you.'

Lister says 'Well... I was in search of some a Seanchan who was running around Amadacia. He had commited some murders...'

Lister says 'A Seanchan. Just one.'

Lister says 'I was hoping to find help in locating him.'

Lister says 'I know the Seanchan are darkfriends...'

Lister says 'They just pop up out of nowhere.'

Lorcam suddenly wraps the cord in his hands around his thumbs.

Lorcam cross the cell with startling speed.

Lister looks on, very afraid.

Lister jumps back.

Lister looks at Lorcam.

Lorcam lunges at you!

Lister says 'No! I swear its the truth!'

Lorcam suddenly wraps the cord around your neck, and pulls taught.

Lister keels over and starts coughing, apparently beginning to choke.

Lister says 'Please....'

Lorcam pulls harder.

Lister says 'I only wish to save the world....'

Lorcam says 'Why!'

Lister says 'From the same fate...'

Lister gurgles, his throat almost crushed.

Lister says 'That my sister met...'

Lister starts to lose consciousness.

Lorcam places the pale of water in front of you.

Lister says 'I don't know what else to say...'

Lorcam says 'Tell me why.'

Lister says 'I will tell you anything you want.. You can take the very blood from my veins. As long as you avenge my sister in her name.'

Lorcam squats down in front of you. The ring on his chest dangles, catching the light.

Lister eyes the ring.

Lorcam grins at Lister.

Lister looks on terrified at what might come.


Lorcam says 'Tell me why you asked the aid of a female channeler!'

Lister says 'I will be honest.'

Lister says 'I am sorry.'

Lister says 'I truly am.'

Lister says 'It is true.'

Lister says 'Do what you must with me.'

Lorcam begins to growl, low in his throat.

Lorcam grabs the back of your head.

Lister says 'It was my life dream to become a Child, but not it seems lost.'

Lorcam says 'It is time to stop confessing.'

Lister starts to sob quietly.

Lorcam forces your head into the water.

Lorcam places his elbow between your shoulders, holding your head inside the bucket.

Lister gurgles under water, forcing air in large bubbles to the surface of the bucket.

Lorcam says 'Drink, darkfriend, drink or drown!'

Lister tries to push up, but to no avail.

Lister drinks in heavily water from the bucket as quickly as he can.

Lorcam begins to laugh,

Lister starts to go limp.

Lorcam does not release his grip on your hair. He begins to hum to himself.

Lister loses consciousness and is at the will of Lorcam's rigid hands.

Lorcam continues to hum, and then notices that Lister has stopped moving.

Lorcam pulls his head out of the bucket, slimey water stains his hair.

Lorcam says 'It is time to bring you back to the Light, boy.'

Lorcam forces his fist into your stomach.

Lister mutters the name 'Mohly'...

Lister pukes up a large amount of water.

Lister pukes.

Lister looks around in a daze.

Lister looks up to you from the floor, in shambles.

Lorcam grabs you by the scruff of the neck, and pulls you to your feet.

Lorcam does not seem to notice he is covered in your vomit.

Lister wobbles.

Lister says 'Am... Am I alive?'

Lorcam says 'Swear on the Light and the Creator that you will serve Him and all the is Holy for the rest of your life. Swear that if you fail to do this, you will go to the nearest river, grab the biggest stone you can, and take your own life before betraying him again.'

Lister stands more rigidly.

Lister says 'I swear, On the Light and the Creator, bless his name, That I will serve Him and only Him and all that is Holy for the rest of my Life. If I fail to do this I will undoubtedly take my own wretched life in the worst way I know how.l'

Lister wavers on his feet for a second before regaining composure.

Lorcam looks you up and down. His grey eyes search your own.

Lister meets your gaze steadily.

Lorcam says 'You may continue being an Acolyte.'

Lorcam says 'I know you were honest with me.'

Lorcam says 'The only people capable of true honesty are those who still walk in the Light.'

Lister says 'Thank you Hand Lorcam. I can be nothing but honest with you.... I am sorry...'

Lorcam says 'But you betrayed your Brothers and Sisters.'

Lister nods slowly...

Lister says 'I feel horrible.'

Lorcam says 'And I will give you something to remember this by.'

Lister looks a little scared.

Lorcam pulls a knife out of his pocket.

Lister cringes in terror!

Lorcam grabs your jaw, and forces your mouth open.

Lister does not resist, although his eyes are petrified.

Lorcam shoves his large hand inside your mouth, and pulls out your toungue.

Lister gurgles loudly.

Lorcam cuts, with surgical presision, a slit, in the tip of your tongue.

Lorcam pulls his hand out, and slips the knife back in his pocket.

Lorcam's eyes look unwaveringly calm.

Lister shuts his mouth and tries to remain calm, but a narrow band of blood trickles down his chin.

Lorcam says 'You are fobidden from having that stitched. You may see a wisdom for herbs, but no needle must touch it.'

Lorcam says 'And I will obviously know if you have it Healed.'

Lister says 'I will be a freak...'

Lorcam says 'You will learn to watch your tongue!'

Lister nods slowly.

Lister says 'Watch it I will...'

Lorcam grins evilly.

Lister sighs loudly.

Lister nods at Lorcam.

Lorcam says 'If i were more like Racquel, I would have used soap.'

Lorcam snickers softly.

Lorcam turns away and begins walking out the door.

-We leave. I reccomend a good Wisdom-

This one has a lot of spirit and is not submissive at all.

nice one, probably the best questionning log ive read. (i dont like riping nails off )

Great read Always loved it when someone would actually play along with the questioning instead of being the toughest person alive and just laughing at you the whole time.

I always love your RP, Lorcam. Lister was a pleasant surprise. Now when I tell the *OLs to keep their forked tongues behind their teeth, I'll think of him.

Awesome log. I really love Lorcam's and Lister's rp though it must have been a bit terrifying for Lister.
