Can I use Decades of Experience here?That's more than fair.  I'll navigate the landing below them while they step carefully across the ridge.  There is excitement and tension in the air as we are so close to successfully surviving this harrowing climb and evading whatever dangers lurked in the bog.[sblock]Saerie Defy Danger (Dex)2, 5 + 2 = 9Success with a worse outcome, hard bargain, or ugly choice.Team Defy Danger (Dex)1, 3 + 0 = 4[/sblock]No!I rush over to the sweet dog and hold it in disbelief.  Rawr comes over and licks his poor, broken form.  Exel and Xanob stand over me nervously waiting, weapons drawn, as they look toward the pass that the figures disappeared into.I'll figure out what I'm going to do later.  This sucks.</blockquote>
