[QUOTE="Aeric, post: 3344848, member: 17012"] I did something similar to the monk's mid-air grapple once. We were fighting, among other things, a dragon. The party was out in the open, and had our Daern's Instant Fortress up (I think we may have just used it as a missile weapon on someone...good old 2nd edition!). My character, a fighter/thief with the swashbuckler kit, climbed to the top of the fortress and used a plain old 50' rope and grappling hook to snag onto the dragon as it flew by. He then made a couple of climb checks to get up onto the dragon and make his way along its neck in order to stab it in the eye (it was a pretty big dragon), all of which was happening in flight. Having made all my rolls thus far, the swashbuckler was poised to stab the dragon in the eye when another PC decides to shoot the dragon in that very same eye with a longbow on the ground. Of course, he hits with a natural 20 - this player dropped 20s like a bad habit. Down comes the dragon, with me on it. I take a small amount of damage, but I was far more angry that this other guy had stolen my thunder. [/QUOTE]
