He then concentrates on guarding the bottom of the rope.
"Earth Welcomes Air, Air Kisses Earth's Cheek." He explains to Davroar, when the druid mentions his slow fall.
The old monk looks around apprehensively.
"I think this mine must have been abandoned for a long time, Davroar. Anyone using these tunnels from day to day would build a ladder for climbing out."
He shrugs, "But then some things that live beneath the earth never want to leave. If there are any monsters down here, hopefully they dislike the Black Spider's lackeys too." | | | | Joined: May 2009 Posts: 16,652 Likes: 16 Chaotic Obfuscator Moderator | Chaotic Obfuscator Moderator Joined: May 2009 Posts: 16,652 Likes: 16 | LuminmornThe other dragonborn moved to the rope. He dropped his own torch and began to climb down. His strength served him well as he arrived safely next to Chandan. Picking his torch back up, he moved out of the way and waited for the others. 23 not sure a crit matters.  Luminmorn Climb down the rope Pandemonium rolled 1d20+3 and got 23

Once Luminmorn was down, the cleric took hold of the rope and carefully descended.

"I have not seen anything", he said in response to Davroar's comment about this being a mine, "to suggest that this is nothing more than a cave that someone has been exploring. I don't see tool marks, barrow tracks ... at least up here ... to suggest anyone was working the area. That means we should be especially careful of where we walk, what we lean against. As this ... 'opening' suggests, the area may not be particularly stable. And I would rather that the 'monsters' would prefer the taste of 'lacky' to adventurer."

Managing to get down safely using the rope he replies to Chandan, "Speaking of spiders, if we're going to be ending up going up and down a lot in here, I just might take the form of one."
Those dead giant spiders he saw back in Thundertree would probably offer a better chance of him surviving down here rather than relying on his not-so-great human strength.

He hung back until last, making sure the start of the climb was well lit. Once the rest had descended, he tok the quick way down.

He nods at Davroar's suggestion.
"Good idea, Davroar. If you have ever seen a great ape, it too would be a good form." He says, keeping his voice low.

Kriv tries to climb down the rope but his grip loosens at the wrong moment and he falls 20 feet down and lands badly.
8 points falling damage. Kriv needed an adjusted 10 to climb down.
Yes. Wave Echo Caves are the Lost Mines with Forge of Spells. You can assume all that from your past travels | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 42,503 Likes: 12 Member | Member Joined: May 2000 Posts: 42,503 Likes: 12 | <Bern>
Once everyone else was down, he took hold for the rope and joined the others below.

Watching Kriv take a bad fall, reminds him of his own fall back in the goblin caves when they first started out on this trip for Gundren. Moving over to help if he needs a hand up, he will quietly speak up and ask, "That looked like it hurt.

The cleric of Lathander moved quickly, joining Davroar at Kriv's side.

It was too late for Whisper to avoid it when she saw the threat. Hanging to the ceiling of this area were slimy winged creatures with sharp, mosquito-like proboscis's. Two of the stirges were upon the owl before she could react. Both tried to skewer Whisper but they both miss. Of course, Jaliera sees all this through Whisper's eyes. There are dozens of these beasts and they are making a bee-line for their prey.
Whisper got realllllllly lucky: 2 Stirges Attack poor Whisper (AC 11) Neptune rolled 1d20+5 and got 7 Miss! Neptune rolled 1d20+5 and got 8 Miss!
She needs to roll initiative - as well as everyone else.
Ryssa cannot just help Kriv. You first have to make successful strength roll to climb down. And it will take more than a full round (20 feet, but movement rate is half, ie: difficult terrain).
Only Chandan, Kriv and Davroar are down in the pit. So the initiative roll does not mean you made it there to help Whisper. From this moment on, you are where you are on the map.

Getting to his feet, the Dragonborn waved off the offers of help.
"Not as bad as it looked, don't worry about it."
