OOC: Light spell, 20’, then dim light 20’, which for Darkvision is normal light. Then darkvision takes over for 60’, which is treated as dim light for purposes of penalties (i.e. Disadvantage on Perception checks/light obscurement). You need to not think about previous editions

Hrgach pulled out his rope. He tied several knots in it for handholds and secure it to the cavern wall. “Remind me to replace this when we get out of here,” he said, checking the mounting. Then he started down toward what remained of the ladder.

OOC: Don’t know if you need a roll, but here’s one anyway. Athletics to climb down rope: 1D20+4 = [3]+4 = 7

Hrgach begins his descent down the rope as he nears the ladder it is now apparent that it has rusted with age possibly from when water ran through here. Putting his weight on the ladder while holding on to the rope the rung gives ever so slightly but it does hold up. Hrgach is uncertain how many trips the ladder will survive.

OOC: If my middle aged mother can go absailing I see no reason why you should need to roll your adventureres after all. I'll let you decide how you approach the ladder conundrum.

Hrgach paused on the ladder, testing it. “Anyone else got rope?” he called up. “This ladder’s pretty old. Not sure how much I trust it. Knot up another rope and throw it down to me. I’ll lengthen this and we can climb all the way to the bottom.”

Galdar takes the rope from his pack, knots it for hand-holds, and drops one end down to Hrgach.

Hrgach grunted his thanks to Galdar as he caught the knotted rope. He tied it off to the end the he currently held. He dropped the end to the floor below and then descended the ladder to the bottom.

“Next,” he called up to the others as he drew his sword to guard the descent.

OOC: So you now have a rope reaching to the floor yet Hrgach used the ladder anyway

 

[KahlessNestor]

OOC: He kept hold of the rope Ladder is easier than a rope LOL

 

[Azurewraith]

OOC: Ah logic!

"Galdar, you're next. Then Asha, Balin, and Ben (Is he still around?). I'll go down last in case there's any trouble up here." She calls down to Hrgack, "Trying lighting a torch now." She picks up a rock and asks Asha, "Once he lights the torch, cast light on this rock so I'll be able to see once you all get down there."

Galdar shinnies down the rope with a sailor's practiced ease.
