Legacy of Death Part I: Most Infamous Danger

[dyermaker001]

DM: Would Tenser's Floating Disc work to traverse the spikes? Does the trap appear to be triggered by pressure on the floor, or just the presence of someone in the area? Did we determine if Nar-Heru can use the disc to transport himself?

 

[Flaming Bob]

"Ow." Lucien sits up and begins looking around for triggering devices on the floor and walls between him and Forge's shield.

 

[TerraDave]

The disk is too wide to move through the spikes.

Entering the east end of the pit seems to triggers the spikes. No specifics triggers are noted.

Crossing

If Forge and I hold the rope, Buckthorn can tight-walk and Nar Heru can "hang" across fist over fist, ankle over ankle. I don't know the term for it, if there is one. Then pull Lucien up.

Nar Heru can Mage Hand the shield for Forge.

When he's close to it, it would be nice if Nar Heru could attempt an Arcana check to disable the trap before I come across. Can't rogues use Thievery to disable magical traps? I'm not sure how the mechanics of that work...

When everyone else is safely over and Nar Heru or Lucien has attempted to disable the trap, I'll make my attempt. I will short rest before trying )while Lucien and Nar Heru are trying to disable the trap) so I can get guidance from the spirits.

 

[TerraDave]

You do a good job of telling each other what to do, while not doing actually doing much.

There has been, and remains no, indication that the trap can be disabled.

Time passes.

 

[Flaming Bob]

Lucien begins moving slowly towards Forge's shield. Once he reaches it, he'll toss it up the dwarf, then climb out.

 

[dyermaker001]

OK then, Nar-Heru will try and cross the pit on the rope and hope the trap doesn't trigger. "Since only last last section is trapped, let move down there to start the rope climbing."

 

[TerraDave]

Nar Heru, you manage to climb down and walk through most of the pit.

Lucian...you are lucky the rope was there! You just get out.

Rope a Dope

Ghen continues holding the rope until Buckthorn has tightwalked across and is safely on the other side.

We'll continue holding the rope and use athletics to jump down into the pit safely.

Then, we'll run across, and climb the rope out at the other side.

 

[Buckthorn]

With Ghen holding the rope, Buckthorn will attempt to walk across it, trying to stay above the level of the pit. (Acrobatics). He will then try to climb out of the pit (athletics)
