I think Nep said the doors to where Whisper saw the monster were now closed?) | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,985 Likes: 1 Moderator | | OP Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,985 Likes: 1 | OOC: MikeD, While we are not currently doing "rounds", using Zeim's rounds from an earlier post, this is where we are:[
Round 1 - Bern first, then and Arus, 1 round apart on the rope, so Bern is 15 feet down while Arus is just holding it at top.
Round 2 - Bern reaches the ground at the same time Arus reaches 15 foot mark on rope and Sindar gets ready.
Round 3 - Bern moves away to not block the bottom as Arus reaches the ground and Kriv jumps. Simultaneously Sindar starts down rope and reaches 15 foot mark.
I am asking for you to all declare your moves for this "round":
Round 4 - Arus and Kriv move away and Zhu Misty Steps Davroar and herself to the bottom. Zhu and Davroar moves away from landing zone while the same time Sindar reaches bottom. Jaliera starts down and reaches 15 foot mark.
Round 5 - Jaliera reaches bottom.
Note that if your token is on the map (Bern, Arus and Kriv, I've activated dynamic lighting so you see what your character sees. If you think it's wrong, let me know.
Slippery floor
Remember the "slippery floor" rules. I'll try to lay down some common options: - If ALL you are doing is a double move, you can move your max rate and not give me a save.
- If you are doing any other "regular speed" moves, you need to make your Dex saves (DC 14) or fall prone. If you are adjacent to the water and if you failed your save by 5 or more, you fall into the water.
- If you double move you lose any readied actions.
- If you do a singular move, either at half speed or normal speed with the Dex save, you can keep a readied action.
I'm assuming that Sindar will make it onto the mop with his move and so I placed him on the map.

He returns a nod to Zhu and says, "Coming..."
While it seems there is nothing bad happening at the moment he will take his time in climbing down the slippery rungs as he really does not want to fall and break something. Once he is down he will move to his left a few feet but will remain in the light provided. | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 76,635 Likes: 59 Wizop Administrator | | Wizop Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 76,635 Likes: 59 | Jaliera

Should he have been surprised that he was called out by name? Probably not. Was he, most definitely. For a moment he loses concentration and slips a little on the rope, but quickly recovers and continues his way down.
No point in waiting as avoiding whatever was coming wasn't really an option. If he was the first to find the poinard then so be it. He was no stranger to less delicate negotiations. Though he hoped this one would be a bit more delicate. | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,985 Likes: 1 Moderator | | OP Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,985 Likes: 1 | OOC: I think it's Zhu's turn. How is she getting down? Zeim, you said that she wasn't using magic. So what is the strategy?

Remember that it takes 2 moves to climb down. I understood that Jaliera was contemplating going down from the previous post but now's decision time. Waiting to see what happens means giving up the turn.
There are a lot of problems with the wording of the Summon Animals spell that rules lawyers love to debate. We won't  In this case I will lay out the the way I am adjudicating.
You summon fey spirits that take the form of beasts and appear in unoccupied spaces that you can see within range.
They obey any verbal commands that you issue to them (no action required by you).
And for Whisper, let's say that there are perches available but none that will keep her safe from attack. She could, however, fly down, take a look and fly back up the shaft to avoid attack. Only someone that had readied an attack action could attack her then.

No one has enough movement to move away on the turn they land if they climbed down. It takes until the following turn......., although, Nep, what about a double move on the second climbing turn? One move to reach the bottom and the second move to move 5-15 feet aside? It takes one full move to climb down the final 15 feet, but that should still leave a second move to move away, since there's no combat.)
