Cadeyrn will clean the barracks and mess hall as he was told to and try to get some pieces of food that the people left behind in the mess hall and asks his partner if he wants to help out as well.
Assuming that's not enough, Crowfell is doing this on his own after failing to cajole the other man with false promises. Ignore the other rolls in the log, please, I have no idea why it keeps rolling stuff I don't tell it to roll.
Kel will do as their told, feeding the Quaggoths, cleaning the den, and cleaning the path. They won't even snarl at the guards. They will, however, try to find out as much as they can about the Quaggoths in case they have to deal with them on an escape attempt (unfortunately, they have no poisons to add to the food). They will also just take in the lay of the land, especially the path that runs along the outpost wall. What lay beyond the wall that they can see, if anything? Can they get an idea of where the guards are most concentrated?
"Prince," Kel starts quietly, "have you learned anything about this place that might aid us? Can we convince the Quaggoths to turn against our captors?" They will ask this of Prince Derendil quietly, so that any overseers won't hear.

Investigation: 16
Stealth: 17
Despite not getting along with Sarith during your shift, you manage to sift through a few bits of papers laying around which mostly detail the upcoming caravan where all prisoners are to be sold off as slaves to Menzoberranzan, and a few records of game results between the guards, but nothing else of any vital importance. You also manage to find a small, well worn knife, but it looks like it has seen better days. It likely got knocked out of the armory above at some point and rolled into the corner you found it in.
As you approach the den the 3 quaggoths resting there quickly get riled up, snarling and taking a menacing stance towards you. You quickly understand that you are not welcome in the den (despite the guard's insistence) and even the Prince gets dirty looks from the lot as he goes about the business as quickly as he can. You try to get a look at the rest of the area, but other than seeing the 2 guards at that far north post it is too dark to make out anything helpful. The Prince does mention though that the northern passage leads out towards Menzoberranzan and Blingdenstone.
While working with his partner, Finn will attempt to gauge the alertness of the quaggoths in the watchtower and salvage any item that might be of use. Anything that could be used or fashioned into a shiv, a lockpick, or a digging tool, etc. He would be peeking out through any openings available to get a sense of guard patrol intervals, and even attempt to strike up conversation with the quaggoths themselves, asking simple questions at first (how long have they served down here, how are they being treated by the drow, etc) and then trying to persuade them for simple favors like extra scraps of food (from the argument that if the prisoners had more food, they could be more useful, and wouldn't it look good if the prisoners were more useful all because of the quaggoths). He would also assume that the basket is operated from this watch tower and would look for the mechanism controlling it to determine how it works

Sennet will do as he's told, trying not to draw any attention to himself, if there is anytime when he is alone in any of the priestesses chambers, he will begin to search through it, seeing if he can find anything that could help him in either escaping, give him more information on the priestess. He'd also have Jimjar keep watch if this is to occur and cause a distraction if Jimjar sees someone coming.
OOC: [TL:DR] As he cleans, he's going to try and search the chambers.
The quaggoths on guard there make it difficult to search for anything useful, but you do manage to gather some information about the basket delivery system. It is raised and lowered by a pegged wheel up top, looks like it can carry a fair bit of weight (up to 800lbs) and it is hard to see the floor below so it must take a while to get up and down (4 rounds). Normally someone is down at the bottom to give a signal of some kind to lower the basket. Unfortunately, the quaggoths show no interest in helping you at any point.

As you enter the shrine for your cleaning duty, the second in command, Asha (a drow priestess) is there, making preparations for ritual worship later on. Her eyes immediately fall upon you and begin watching you and your actions. You also notice, in the back among some pillows, a giant spider. It is obviously a pet of the priestess. By the shrine there are two large candlesticks with black candles on each one. There is also a very life-like spider statue nearby, with 8 eyes of jet black stone. You are able to clean in peace, but you know the high priestess's quarters are below you, and at the bottom are Shoor's quarters.
[You may now respond to what you found (or didn't find), and either try something else, or be done with your shift and go back to the cell. Up to you![
This wasn't the most ideal place for Crowfell to be assigned to. Preferably, would be wherever they keep important mail. But alas. This is his lot. Crowfell pockets the knife. Returning to his quarters after doing his job.

You manage to scavenge some rations, enough for a few people to last for a few days easily.
