Strahd's "RttToEE" CLOSED

Lenuran

Lenuran looks at his companions and then calls to Ithiken
This waterfall and stream are intimidating if i compare it to the tunnel up the cliff.
two coming down is more easy then three coming up.

 

[DEFCON 1]

"Right-o! We're on our way!"

Having grabbed the rope when The Kid tossed it up to him, he immediately spins around on the disk and it glides silently back up the underground stream. When he reaches the opening, he shouts to Miltiades and then hands him up the end of rope.

"Lenuran says there is a continuation of the tunnels where they are. We should go down and join them. But if you're tying off the rope, we can at least give ourselves a way back up as we need."

As soon as the rope gets tied off, Ithiken offers Miltiades a bit of space on the floating disk so he doesn't have to slide underwater through the tunnel. Once the two of them reach the tunnel mouth, they both can jump off the disk straight into the pool below. Someone can then take the other end of the rope and pull it to the side of the cavern so they can regrab it when they come back.

Miltiades ties the 50 ft. rope to both the door for safety, the rope end reaches to the beginning of the waterfall, you decide to secure it to an ogre's fist size fungi that jut from the rocks 3 ft. above the waterfall, on the tunnel's rocky wall.

From there, jumping to the pool is not for the light hearted, luckily, you are heroes and braves. You jump into the pool to the cheers of your three companions, several seconds pass and you climb soaked and wet to the rocky shore.

 

[DEFCON 1]

As Ithiken crawls up on the rocky shore of the small cavern lake, his face is one of disgust. "Ugh! I hate getting wet! It's going to take forever for us to dry out." As he begins stepping, he can hear the squish-squish of water in his boots, and he sighs heavily. He sits down and starts pulling them off, hoping to empty them of water and squeeze dry his stocking.

"So what's the direction we're going in? We all set to continue? I'll be ready to keep on in just a few moments."

While the others work on making their way down, Korbryn has begun working on making his way up the wall to the corridor above. Although not a hard climb, the dwarf has to put considerable effort into it due to the weight of his arms and armor.


Climb +1 (2 ranks + 4 str -5 acp)

 

[Strahd_Von_Zarovich]

The heavy armored dwarf fails to climb. When he tries to lift himself up he roots out the fungi and crumbles the stone. A rope from the top will be the way for this sturdy dwarf.

 

[stonegod]

With 50 feet of his rope used on one end, the Kid volunteers the other 50 for this climb. If no one else can make it, he will attempt the climb himself.

OOC: Climb +2

 

[Strahd_Von_Zarovich]

Thandis ties a rope to his waist and climbs, the first 5 ft. are easy, the higher portion of the cliff is not, the kid was very near to loose his hold but finally he managed to make all the way up. Tying the rope around a low stalagmite, he lowers the rope to the others.
Lenuran climbs first, followed by Miltiades, Ithiken and Korbryn.
From up the cliff you can see the entire cave, the scene is amazing, behind you, a dark narrow tunnel (3 to 4 ft. wide) slopes up into the unknown.

[sblock=Defcon] Please state in your character sheet the rest of your skills like the others did, I didn’t see Climb and others. Thanks [/sblock]

 

[stonegod]

The Kid looks into the tight squeeze. "Don't like it. Don't like at all. Prolly better if someone more appropriately sized goes first, but I doubt you want to volunteer." He looks to Lenuran and sighs. "Will you have enough room?" he asks the dwarf.

 

[DEFCON 1]

As he turns back to watch the rushing water plummet from the high mouth of the waterfall down into the dark pool, then continue to drain out through the other small hole in the wall, the elf whistles once in admiration. "I'll say one thing for this..." and he stretches his arm out to point to the cavern and *THWAP* accidentally slaps Lenuran in the face with the soggy draped sleeve of his robe. "Oops! Heh heh... sorry about that, Lenuran." He smiles sheepishly at his mistake. "Um, as I was saying, this is the kind of view you never really get while stuck in a lab. Despite all the hardships thus far... this is the kind of thing that makes me glad Master Bigby sent me on this adventure. To see beauties like this!"
