[QUOTE="weem, post: 4329073, member: 9470"] For my games, I don't think I would allow coming out of a pit with Fey Step in this case. It's based on teleportation, which says "you must be able to see your target destination" - the space they wish to occupy is not visible. Sure, they can see the very edge of the space they wish to occupy, but in order to occupy THAT space (the very edge of the square) it would require them to squeeze in effect, and since you can't port to a place where you must squeeze to fit, that doesn't work. And I wouldn't buy the "well, my destination is the air" bit either. They could argue that their destination is the ceiling above the area they wish to be in - effectively letting them fall to their destination... That's something I MIGHT allow for laughs, but I'm not really sure about it. It's called Fey Step... not Fey Fly n' Fall. It's a natural ability of theirs allowing them to step immediately from one place to another. The fact that they need to see where they want to port to implies to me it is a straight shot, and any manipulation of it allowing multiple angles of movement goes beyond the purpose of the ability. It wasn't meant (imho) to allow them to move to point A and fall to point B in effect allowing 2 movements for the price of 1, etc. Anyway, that's what I would tell my players at this moment if it came up -- not that I couldn't be persuaded otherwise, but I'm just not seeing it in anyway but that.
