Dungeon Raiders: The Wolf's Den

Sulannus can barely contain an expression of distaste as the others fall to the floor and grub about like starving peasants in a trashpile. Maintaining her dignity as best she can under these circumstances, she goes over to where the elevated tunnel leads out of the cavern and peers up at it. After a moment she looks around for a rock or something big enough and firm enough to stand on that can be moved over.
Rejik watches with interest. "There's really no need for that. I'm sure between the lot of us we can get you up there."

Tock slings his halberd over his back after the last of the Stirges falls. While his companions check the cave and manoeuvre the boulder back into place, he takes a moment to adjust a couple of loose rivets on his timepiece, tapping it briefly to make sure it's still working.

He looks up, and seeing Sulannus investigating the cave exit, moves over to assist her.

"Would you like some aid?" he asks, and with his usual lack of social tact, opens his arms wide as if to grab her and lift her up.

[OOC: I wasn't asked for an INT (Search) check for Aeiyan to check the litter on the floor for loot, but here's one anyway]

Aeiyan finds a lot of worthless junk scattered around, but amongst it he spots a pouch containing the equivalent of 21gp, 4 ornamental (i.e. cheap) gems, and a healing potion. He can probably scrap more money if he decides to take a longer time searching around the whole area, but it's going to take at least 10 minutes (no additional check needed).

Remember that the opening at the end of the cave is 15ft high, and the wall is natural rock but fairly flat. Climbing quickly (i.e. normal speed) requires a Strength (Athletic) check, or you can take your time and help each other get up (1 minute/person).

"Money, costume jewelry, and a potion," Aeiyan reports. "No wonder these guys all died -- they didn't have any weapons on them!"

He joins the rest of the party at the stone wall beneath the elevated passage leading onward. "I'll hold the healing potion unless someone else needs it more. Who wants to carry the cash?"

He stuffs the healing potion into his belt pouch, offers the found pouch containing the new money to Rejik* for safekeeping, and estimates the difficulty of climbing the rock face to the passage. While estimating, he secures his longbow behind his left shoulder using the same straps he used last time he did that.

Once someone takes and stows the money, Aeiyan asks, "Is this the way we're going next?"
Not waiting for an answer, he starts climbing as well as he can.

[Action: Climb, with STR modifier of +2. I'm assuming that Aeiyan's Athletics Proficiency also applies: 1d20+3 -> [16,3] = (19)

* would have been offered to Bartleby, but Aeiyan has heard that Druids have a preference for wood over metal.

Rejik takes the cash with a nod. "I'll follow you up. You'll need some light."

He secures everything tightly on his person and hauls himself up the rock-face after Aeiyan...

[OOC: Athletics check: 1d20+3=4 lol]

...but his foot slips off the rock almost immediately. Pausing, so as to hear anyone who might laugh at him, he gives it another go.

[OOC: Athletics check: 1d20+3=16]

Once through the hole, he anchors himself and leans back out to lend a hand to those following, while the remaining light of his holy symbol illuminates the cave ahead.

[OOC: The Light spell lasts a full hour so I think it should still be going. I can't recall how long we rested after the first combat.]

Sulannus shakes her head at Tock. "No need for that...I think we can..."

Before she could finish, Aeiyan was climbing up. She raises her eyebrows, but smiles a little. "...let someone help me up from the top."

It was always gratifying when the help took initiative. It said good things about their leader too!

Bartleby tries to make his way down, but has little success.

OOC: 1d20+1=6. (Not sure what failure indicates; damage? Ugh. In spite of the others's choice he should have just spent the minute.)

So Aeiyan is going first, good.

As you grab the ledge of the opening and are pulling yourself up, make a Wisdom(Perception) check.

Everybody else is still at the bottom (Rejik's next climb roll is buffered, so you can use it soon).
