"Looks like it's fight or fall," Armeros observes with a sigh, drawing his sword and shield and moving to the other end of the party to intercept their pursuers when they arrive.
Can Jasmine see any thing on the other side? Like some place to secure rope too? I was thinking maybe I can Misty step over there and use rope to make a tightrope for others to cross on.
Flynt nudges the star with his boot clad toe. The whispering stops but resumes as he pulls his foot back. He gets down on his hands and knees to better examine the glowing object. He gingerly touches it feeling around the edges possibly attempting to pick it up if able.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Taxidea readies the wand of fireballs. “Screw it.” He mumbles and readies an action. If the men reach 120’ away he’s going to cast a 5th level fireball
(If cast it will be 42 fire damage; Dex save DC 15 for 1/2)
"...at worst if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
Can Jasmine take ropes (Potentially borrowing one from her allies) and then tie one end to a door on this side and then teleport to the other side and tie the other end there? Effectively making a rope connection that the party members can hold on to and use to climb their way to the other side?
Actually no. She won't do that because I made a mistake. I thought Misty Step had a range of 60ft. It has a range of 30ft. So this plan was impossible from the start.
So no, Jasmine does not do anything because she can't get to the other side of the hole.
Jasmine is still invisible though so maybe she can get surprise round on the hoard that is showing up :P

Almost as if they know what Taxidea is planning, the group stops around 200 feet away, so nearly right at the top of the stairs. One of the, a younger looking man in a sharp, blue suit over a white shirt, steps forward confidently. "You can clearly see you are trapped, and you have no hope of fighting my men. Therefore, your only option is to surrender. If you don't immediately, we will attack, and you will for certain lose your live. Now I don't want any bloodshed. I find it useless when we can instead settle our differences with traps, (like that pit) and dimplomacy."

Rikas shouts back, trying to act just as intimidating. "You know... For someone who's standing so far away, that's awfully big talk... Why don't you come over here, and we can have a conversation, man to man... Or are you too much of a chicken?"
(Insight check: it makes sense. If he knows somehow that getting close can harm him, why not stay away?)
The man smiles, but it's not a pleasant smile. "I don't see any reason to get closer to you. And if you want to talk about big talk, why don't you leave it to someone who can look me in the eye, and isn't starting at my knees." At some hidden signal, three of the men behind him step forward. Big, burly, bare chested men wielding the biggest, double bladed axes anyone of you (except perhaps Xonadario) have seen. "Anyone one of these three gnarly dumps could easily decimate the lot of you. And if by some miracle you killed him, he'd have worn you out to the point that the other two would destroy whoever's left. However, I don't want that to happen. As I just said, bloodshed is pointless. I don't like it, don't want it, and don't see the point of it. If you don't comply though, I will have to do the unfortunate." (Forgot to just remind y'all, because the man and his group are about 200 feet out, everyone will have to be like yelling.)

It's a sheer, straight edge drop, and certainly is not an illusion.
The footsteps are getting a lot closer, and you can hear the men yelling now.

It's just more doors.
((So are there doors on our side of the gap as well? I thought they all disappeared -.-;; Also is Flynt still standing on the star?))
Yes, they are, and I don't know if he is.
Do the doors on the other side have handles or something?
Xini readies herself for the oncoming fight.

Armeros will go ahead and cast shield of faith on himself in preparation. (Making his AC 20)
They are the same as this side, so yeah.

She can certainly try. : ) Would this be before fireball is cast?
Actually no. She won't do that because I made a mistake. I thought Misty Step had a range of 60ft. It has a range of 30ft. So this plan was impossible from the start.

Armeros eyes the man in the blue suit skeptically. "He sounds awfully confident for being too scared to come over here."

I don't have a signature.
