"It looked like someone is triggering that trap. Maybe I could sneak up and take him out with my bow?"

"Two-pronged offensive. I'll take this chimney, anyone else of like mind likewise. Stealth might work where rushing as we just tried failed, worth a shot."

"Whatever we do, we need to stick together." She says. "We have no idea if the chimney and the tunnel ever connect." | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,521 Likes: 7 Moderator | OP Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,521 Likes: 7 | Dash is a double move but uses a standard action. So, if you can move 30, you move 60 but forego your attack.

"Kallista's right. Plus, we know already we're outnumbered, splitting up is asking for more trouble if you ask me."
He picks up one of the chains that kept the wolves tied up.
"I'm game for going up the chimney. Whoever's the better climber should go first and then can help the rest up using the chains, unless someone has some rope?" | | | | Joined: Oct 2001 Posts: 23,055 Likes: 12 (Buffalo) Moderator | (Buffalo) Moderator Joined: Oct 2001 Posts: 23,055 Likes: 12 | Kallista
"I have rope." She says, handing it over. | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 27,776 Likes: 1 Member | Member Joined: May 2000 Posts: 27,776 Likes: 1 | Kriv
He tapped the hempen coil secured to the side of his pack.
"Never set out into the wilderness without it."
One quick look around the various soft-skinned sentients, and he elected to go first, methodically seeking handholds to pull himself up by main force. | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 80,351 Likes: 75 Wizop Administrator | Wizop Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 80,351 Likes: 75 | Jaliera
"I have rope too if more is needed."
She looks at the chimney wondering if this is the best way to go. Won't they be expecting them to try this?
"If we are going this way then we'd better remove the arrow traps we set here first."
She kneels down and starts moving the arrows from the debris.
[OOC There is no climbing skill in 5 - what substitutes?] | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,521 Likes: 7 Moderator | OP Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,521 Likes: 7 | THe skill check for climbing is a Strength check. That's the major change in 5e. For most everything you just roll d20 against one of the 6 prime stats.
So, who's climbing and in what order?

Presuming proficiency doesn't apply. If it does, 23.
| | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,521 Likes: 7 Moderator | OP Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,521 Likes: 7 | I will grant proficiency. I will grant advantage. But we will stop and wait after the first person goes up. Does Kriv see in the dark? If not, he might not be the best choice to go first - regardless of strength. Just sayin...

"Unless someone has magic to silence the noise of my armor, I'd make a lousy scout. But I can make the climb easier for another if that would help someone else make their way up there." he said looking at Kriv.

She nods at Karok. "I can go take a quick look around and anchor a rope behind me. Anything you can do to help me climb is appreciated."

She stands there nervously awaiting her turn, not at all sure if she can make it. But she will try, hopefully someone will help. | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,521 Likes: 7 Moderator | OP Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 18,521 Likes: 7 | Zeim, what I'm implying is that if someone without the ability to see in the dark goes up there and is attacked, he will be fighting blind and will not be able to assist others to come aid him. Is that what you want to do? | | | | Joined: Jun 2002 Posts: 10,733 Likes: 3 Administrator | Administrator Joined: Jun 2002 Posts: 10,733 Likes: 3 | Davroar
He will position himself to be the second to last to make the climb. Of average strength himself, he does not want to fall and will probably be slower than most.

"They might have it guarded, the climber could be vulnerable."
He tapped his armor with a talon.
"Some less than others. I do agree it looks dark up there. That in mind..."
He removed a second torch from his pack, lit it from Chandan's, clamped the safe end in his draconic jaws, and made ready to ascend. | | |
