"Gryffen, would you be a darling and climb down before us to keep look-out? Ophelia wrinkles her nose as she catches a whiff of Dejan's concoction on Gideon's breath. "Gideon's as likely to fall like a rock as to climb down, and I've been better dressed for descending the side of a building"
"Agreed I am not the quietest of people wearing this" he says motioning to his armour. "Have the guards moved on?" Leaning over the edge he peers into the darkness.
After a few seconds Gideon sees the guards move far enough away that they would be unlikely to see them descend. There is nobody else obviously in the area and the coast seems clear.

"I'm the last one down," Gryffen says. "I can at least hide the last of our trail by taking the rope and grapple with me. So, after you." Gryffen hooks the grapple and throws the silk rope over the edge. He gestures with a flourish to the rope to Opheliaand Gideon.
Thankful that she went first and had nobody to watch her descend from below, Ophelia gives a sharp tug on the rope to let Gideon know he can climb down, and moves to the left, keeping against the wall of the museum.
With the grapple and silk stashed back into his backpack, the monk will sweep the area of any obvious evidence of his stay here on the roof. He looks at the roof hatch with lament, then makes sure that his comrades are at least 100 feet away from the building and that the guards are not in sight. When all is clear, he vaults over the edge of the roof. His hands and feet lightly drag against the wall as he falls to slow his descent somewhat. On impact, he absorbs the entire brunt of the fall with a soft thud. (He avoids taking 13 damage.) The mission accomplished, Gryffensteals away to the nearest cover. Stealth: 17
Gryffenwill not go straight back to the rooms. Instead he will walk to the familiar slums of the city, reflecting upon their deeds. He will greet and shake hands with some of the destitute followers of the Sphinx, his old master. After a couple of hours, he will find his way back to the inn where his comrades wait.
The three that return straight to the rooms find food and drink waiting for them, but there is no sign of Dejan. As time ticks by there is still no sign of the soldier and eventually the night really sets in.

After your diversion to your old haunts you return to the Fountain. As you hear the entrance you pass a pair of men who state at you as you enter. The interior of the tavern is busy but as you move through there is a significantly higher number of men than usual, most are carrying a weapon of some kind. The waitress who sees you seems unsure as to how to deal with your presence. You reach the door to the private room.

Can Ophelia and Gideon both give me an Athletics roll (with advantage for the rope) DC10 or.....

Ophelia makes it down although it isn't her most ladylike performance.

Ophelia
Thankful that she went first and had nobody to watch her descend from below, Ophelia gives a sharp tug on the rope to let Gideon know he can climb down, and moves to the left, keeping against the wall of the museum.
Gideon sees the rope twitch as Ophelia tugs at the end of it, grabbing on and lowering himself down he hopes not to make too much noise.
Athletics: 7
Adv: 10

15 falling damage, so 6 taken by Gryffen.
How is Kai getting out?
Gideon moves fairly well despite his armour, making it look quite easy?
Edit: the first roll pre edit was 19 for the falling damage.

He avoids 30. I was rolling the damage he didn't take! ;)
Oh well that is awesome, good skills :).
Gryffen drops effortlessly to the ground and slips into the shadows.

OK, so he is heading straight to the Fountain without stopping? And the others are going as Ophelia and Gideon together with Gryffen going separately?
Are you doing anything before you reassemble in the private room you have been using all this time?

OOC: Yes straight back to the private rooms.
