[QUOTE="Blue, post: 7263398, member: 20564"] I was running a sort of skill check on escaping a collapsing Frost Giant ice castle now inhabited by undead frost giants. Half the party was sledding down ice steps on shields, knocking frost giant zombies out of the way, with the rest of the party behind. The rogue had already missed a few rolls and was in back. The shield-sled team broke through a door to the outside at speed, only to find out it was an upper floor balcony. Falling damage ensues. Hey, still better then getting trapped in the falling castle. The rest of the group rolls and escapes - except for the rogue in back who gets a natural 1. So I describe how they see him flat on his back near the balcony doors (several stories up from them), surrounded by zombie frost giants and about to have the ice tower collapse and kill him. I tell the rest of the party they have one action each to try to save him and start going around the table. The quote: [B]"Oh no, I don't want to [I]see[/I] him die!"[/B] The action that made it epic: [B]The wizard then cast invisibility on the rogue.[/B] To be fair, the wizard was thinking it would be useful for escaping the zombies and was hoping someone else would do something to stop the tower collapse, missing the more obvious "get him out of there" is easier if the rest of the party can [I]see[/I] him.
