Athoros jolted awake as the water was dumped on him. He cursed loudly and then attempted to calm down. He had not really expected to win the day, although he had though things would turn out a little more evenly than they had. However he could not blame the two other prisoners for sitting out when it became clear how one sided this fight would be. The gnome had put up a valiant effort in some kind of spell casting and had been beaten down as well. At least Athoros had seen that the weak minded pirates could fall to his spells easily. It was not much, but it was a piece of information to file away for later. Athoros would have his revenge for this humiliation, but to bring that about he would need all the information he could get to build on.<br/><br/>But that was a remote possibility at the moment. It seemed they had been awakened just in time to witness the shameless blustering and posturing of a man calling himself the captain. Barnabas Higgins seemed as much a filthy brute as the rest of his crew, but he was certainly the chief brute. Athoros had always found pirates to be an insult to the holy art of thievery, their inefficiency and artless manner was a very poor form of worship and so far what he had seen had done nothing to shift his old prejudices.<br/><br/>Athoros lifted himself up painfully, and began to carry out the Captain’s orders with resignation. He certainly did not wish to be lashed, but he hardly desired the position the captain was offering for the first up, so he set about debasing himself by attempting the climb at a slow but steady pace. Physical labor was considered the ultimate humiliation for someone in his order, but he would need to endure the best he could if he was going to make it out of this alive.<br/><br/>(Taking ten for all 8 climb checks)<br/>
