"BACK I SAY!" The trap shouted again, pushing Charina back to the edge of the chasm.
[sblock=Charina Trap/Cliff Rules]
You get a chance to save vs falling.
If you passing the saving throw, you are prone where you are.
If you fail, you move one square to the right, and you are hanging on to the cliff by the edge. You will need to use a move action to pull yourself back up (Athletics DC 10). This will put you back on land, but still prone. You'd need a second move action to stand.
Another adjacent character can use their move or standard action to pull you up, making you prone on solid land.

Atop the gate wall, the magician continued to struggle against the wolf, landing another blow with his sword.
"Get the back line!" The human doomdreamer ordered, while firing a ice bolt at Kruk, freezing the dwarf in place.
Following the doomdreamer's command, the Bloodseep demon growled and reached back for a vicious claw attack on Kane. But, before the strike landed, the demon vanished--teleporting behind Wil. The Bard never saw the attack coming, and the demon's claws cut deep into Wil's back. The vicious attack drew blood, and his wounds burned from the demon's poison. With a gratified snarl, the demon vanished again, reappearing atop the gate wall, near the wolf.
The enemy drow moved up and climbed the west ladder of the gate. Atop the wall, the drow turned his attention to the wolf, firing a flaming bolt at the creature. The attack covered the wolf in flames, as if it had been doused with fuel and set alight.
[sblock=Wolf]It is going to die at the start of its next turn from ongoing damage.[/sblock]
The huge Neldrazu moved forward, its walk awkward and frightening. It moved within 10 feet of Kane and Kruk, and then lashed out with long razor claws against Kane, drawing more blood on the barbarian.

Summary of Events
1. Bested Pirates en route to Allaria. Traveled on the ship
Wind's Will captained by
Captain Levenbrech, and mated by
Porse and
Trig.
2. Arrived in the port, to find it besieged by Lizards from the unending mire. Defeated lizards and met/teamed up with Charina.
3. Journeyed to Geardagas and asked the locals for information with mixed results (
link to the leads gathered).
4. Went to the temple of Netari, where the new priest,
Father Niris, has been tending to the ill (apparently quite poorly). He led the players into the catacombs, where his zombie minions ambushed. The priest, over confident, rambled on about
Hellview (
background reference for players).
5. Dealing a mortal blow to the Priest, he says
Master De Luccia (First time they have heard the name) cannot be stopped, and he stated that Greggor "
will be... among the first... at Hellview." The priest laid dying on the floor with his fallen minions.
6. As they approach Hellview, they encounter the ghost of
Sir Alistair Glasston, who begged them to enter the cave and retrieve his lost battleaxe.
7. They entered Hellview, and came across a portal, as well as some guards/workers. It seems they were using zombies to dig a new path near the portal...
8. They step through the portal into a bizarre world. A demon statue looms ahead, with a tall gate behind. The bodies of fallen adventurers, as well as a dead demon, lay about the floor. Wil Triggered the Demon statue trap, alerting the nearby demon's.
