(OOC) Fitz's Folly (ToA PBP)

nonsense. The smugglers might have gotten away with it, if it hadn't been for us meddling kids.

Just to be clear, the thing Rodrigo is pulling/moving is the torch's fixture. And he does both of them.

I'm proficient in them, but they don't come free with the background and are quite expensive I believe so...

gargoyleking · Sep 26, 2017

Yep! I should be able to afford them after this, if we survive.

As far as I can tell, we're blocked in. There is no way to get back to the guys we tied up.

The only person that did an investigate check was Rodrigo, and he doesn't have the skill... but I don't think there any more time to examine the place.

If I remember well, the DM whispered to us that it's possible.

In a pinch it might be possible to get past the rock and back into the coils, too. Not the easiest or best way to go, but better than drowning.

FitzTheRuke · Sep 26, 2017

To be clearish: The rock blocks the way BACK, the steel door blocks the way FORWARD. The door is still *just* possible to open, given trying the right thing or working hard to break it. The rock is moved enough that it can be squeezed past, but the main force of the water is pouring over it, too.

Nothing can be accomplished without checks at this point.

I'd guess there's something that's fallen into place to block the lever from going back. Thing is we seem to have no thieves tools. Maybe somebody could make due with a dagger?

Sure, a dagger would do.

Fitz gave xp for the idea I posted in IC 224, that you roll investigation again with advantage. Roll roll roll.
