He quickly ties the bottom of the rope to the neck of the golem. [gm] Round Three: [/gm] He then casts two spells in succession, both from scrolls, his eyes flashing with urgency.  He tosses the rope into the air toward the ceiling immediately above the northwestern corner of blue teleport circle as the spell catches the rope "Edra-hie Tucr".  [ooc] Extend Spell / Rope Trick [/ooc]  The rope stays in place, and Respen climbs the rope, pausing about 12 feet up the rope...[gm] Round Four: [/gm]...casting the second spell on the golem's carcass with but a whisper, "Levithurin".  [ooc] Levitate [/ooc]  The golem's 650 lb. carcass becomes light as a feather.  The Respen climbs another 2 feet up the rope, disappearing into an extradimensional space, and he pulls/guides the golem carcass into the space with him, the rope disappearing into the space.  A faux-drow necromancer and a dead golem. [gm] Round Five: [/gm] He positions the golem's carcass at the edge of where the rope created the opening before he pulled it up.  He unties the golem's carcass, and holds the rope.  The opaque edges of the extra-dimensional space are eerie in the algae and magical glow below.   ~Trapped my ass. ~ Respen thinks, wryly smiling, and he rifles his backpack, removing large sack, a flask of oil and an alchemy fire flask from his belt.  He binds the alchemy fire and flask of oil with the sack to create a makeshift bomb. [gm] Round Six: [/gm] He then finds three scrolls (Halt Undead, Grease, & Move Earth) that he might well need to cast, and he readies them on his left side of his belt.  He readies his potions (Hide from Undead, Cure Light Wounds) to his right side.</blockquote>
