Goodness, I missed all kinds of cues that it went down! The 10 skill checks to get down, is that 10 for each character, or 10 total for the group?
That is if you guys were going to do it by hand, hand after hand, all the way down, by hand.
That's when it would take likely ten rolls.
A) White-claw can climb without fear; The large strong bear is an expert in athletics, has climbing claws, and has a natural climbing movement rate...
B) Mara, the sorceress could use "feather fall" and yes, she can get all the way down without even breaking a sweat, and look good doing it!
C) Those who do not have expedient ways down, can hammer spikes, thread a rope to the bottom, Link up a character to character safety line, set a belaying line and descend safely.
D) of course there is the U.S. Army "Fast rope" technique, which is
*VERY BAD ASS* but I do not want anyone to potentially smash their ankle bones to gravel.
Marines and navy fast rope too.
