IC: Dichotomy's Age of Worms Redux, Part III

[Dichotomy]

Bazrim manages to get to the bottom with only a couple more hangups and Kushnak begins to heal him.

Nethezar begins to follow, but almost immediately the cleric loses his grip. He cries out as he plummets to the ground below. Blood flows from beneath his armor, but the man is still conscious. Mumbling curses, he begins using his own wand on himself.

"No! I don't!" he nearly spits at Erdolliel, apparently not excited about more climbing.
[sblock=OOC]Bazrim: still needs 6 climb checks; fails 2, but doesn't fall
Nethezar: needs 9; fails the 2nd one and falls 40 feet, 16 damage

Status & Init:
Erdolliel: 2 damage
Eskard: 3 damage
Bazrim: 3 damage (4 charges used)
Kushnak:
Nethezar: 2 damage (3 charges used)[/sblock]

Eskard lets out a burst of laughter as the mage bounces off the ground. "Oops." he says, chuckling to himself. "I don't have anything like a hook and" eyeing the ledge a bit, he continues "I don't think i can jump to it."

 

[TiCaudata]

Erdolliel ponders the ledge for another minute or two. "Well... We can come back to it after we clean out these caverns."

She then stealthily leads down the tunnel.[sblock=oc]Move Silently at Party Speed +5; Spot +9; Listen +9[/sblock]

"I haven't anything that would be likely to catch on them, no..." says Kushnak.

He eye's the cavern suspiciously before following Erdolliel, once again with his sword ready.

"I don't quite have the strenght to make decent use of a hook. Carrying one might even kill me." Bazrim then follows the others, carrying the same wand he just used in his hand.

 

[Dichotomy]

The ten-foot-wide passageway emerges at the base of another shaft. A large pile of rocks and stony debris is piled in the corner ahead, while above, a crude rope bridge links a stone shelf almost directly overhead to a second shelf set thirty feet up on the opposite wall.

[sblock=OOC]The others are just behind Erdolliel.

The elf's senses don't pick out anything.[/sblock]

As he enters the room, Kushnak moves to shield the others from harm and surveys the area to the north.

 

[o3caudata]

"What's going on? Why did we stop? Are we killing something?" Eskard grumbles from the back.

 

[TiCaudata]

Erdolliel peers left and right muttering about camoflaged beasts. She then takes the rope and ties a fist sized rock to one end. "Eskard, come in the room and stand off to the side a little. Bazrim, you might want to stay in the tunnel just in case." she tells the others as she attempts to throw the rock and one end of the rope over the bridge above.[sblock=oc]I don't really have any idea what this might take but I have a +3 to dex and a +2 to str. How far into and out of the screen does this room go?

Her bow is strung across her back and her sword is sheathed at her hip.[/sblock]

Bazrim turns around, and covers the tunnel, making sure defend attacks from behind. "I've got the cave covered. I'll scream if I see anything."
