Night's Embrace: Part 1--A Touch of Darkness

Titus Farrab, human ranger

(OOC: It is very close to the next roof. It should be a piece of cake to hop it)

(OOC 2: Sulannus sees the possibilities I mentioned earlier for heading down--mainly involving navigating the stacks and walls using rope and climbing)

When he can no longer see or hear guards, Titus whispers to Blunt "They might be up here next. Might do for us to find another rooftop and a different way down, yeah?" He jerks his thumb in the direction of the nearest roof.

(*boggles* Man, I must have had a rougher week than I thought. I coulda sworn I posted here.... Sorry all!)

Sulannus considers for a moment, then whispers, "You're probably better at climbing around than I am, maybe I'd better go first. Just hold onto my hands and lower me down as far as you can. Then I'll try to climb the rest of the way. Then for you, climb first, and I'll grab onto you the moment I can."

She pauses, then starts unlacing her metal-studded leather jerkin. "Help me with this. Drop it after me...the climb will be easier without it."

(OOC - Climb skill is +3, ACP is -1 in studded leather. Since it only takes a minute to take off or put on, I suppose it's probably worth it. Heck, 30 seconds if Kel helps :) Speaking of helping, can Kel Aid Another? If he does, my check turns into +5...and I may be able to take 10 :))

(*nudge* my bad...I edited my post instead of replying...forgetting of course that that doesn't bump the thread. Nnngh. Shoot me now please. :\ )
 

(OOC: D'oh!)

*After removing her armour, Sulannus manages to climb down fifteen feet without a problem, but then her hand slips and she almost falls. Steadying herself, she moves down fifteen more, but then slips and has to push off, hitting the ground and bending her knees to brace for the impact. Fortunately, at this point, the fall is short enough that her last-minute jump saves her from taking any serious damage.*

(OOC: On the ground with no damage :))
 


There's a pause as Sulannus looks around, surveying her location...then looks up and stage-whispers back up, "I've reached the bottom. The climb isn't easy, but if you jump at the end, it's not too bad."
 

"Here comes your armour." Kel drops it over the edge.

"OK, here goes," he mutters to himself. He sits on the edge of the crates, turns and lowers himself very carefully over the edge. Feeling for cracks and edges, he makes his way cautiously downward, praying that he won't slip and go crashing to his death. "How do I get myself in these situations?" he thinks, then gives his full attention to the descent.
