OOC: The doors being rusted shut suggests those lookout post are no longer used, it may work out as a way to sneak in, maybe a good hiding spot or even just high ground if we have to fight in here.
The tremendous effort of the four adventurers (and not-so-adventurous dwarf) is sufficient to break the rusted iron bar, leaving a decently sized three foot gap, plenty of room for the normal-sized members of the party to squeeze through.
Adoy watches nervously as his companions attempt to climb the rope, after watching Ayoola and Kathleen slide back down he moves back to the door and presses his ear against it to see what he can hear.
Perception 13
Dose the drumming still sound a long way off? And Dose Adoy hear anything moving in the space beyond the door?
Adoy looks down at his companions, "Perhaps if Ghorbash and or Gris can get up you two could simply pull the others up one by one at a time. If we tie a loop at the bottom of the rope you can put a foot in and hold on the rope while our strong friends pull you up."
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Ghorbash
The half orc sat back and watched the spectacle that took place before his very eyes. He was amazed at how useless these 'fair' races were. They were populating the world, yet could not even climb a simple rope. He was appalled. Hearing Adoy's suggestion, Ghorbash strapped on his battleax and approached the rope. "Move," was all he said to Kathleen as he passed her. He grabbed it with his large, meaty hands and pulled with his might.
Ghorbash scarcely gets a better grip on the rope than his two companions, but his inherent orc stubborness refuses to give in. He finally claws his way to the guard room and looks back down to his now-tiny companions.
Once he reached the top, he quickly assisted the others by pulling on the rope while they held on. His orc blood gave him the strength he needed to pull the weaker ones up. All the while, he kept a way eye on the door in case anything would try to interrupt them scaling the wall.
Ayoola strength check:14

"Let's go through!" Kathleen says.
Adoy quickly changes back into a spider and climbs back up to tie off the rope once more.
Adoy arrives in the same musty room as before, with the door opposite him still locked.

Gris "Well we still need Adoy to again tie rop to something..bit he is gone"
Adoy changed back and tied the rope again as soon as he got back up there as per the plan.
OOC: sorry I have been a little slow posting, been very busy in the real world.
Kathleen uses the rope to climb up.
Athletics: 8
(OOC: Does she manage to get up?) Ayoola will try to climb the rope after (if) Kathleen gets up.
Athletics: 6
EDIT: (lol, even worse)
Kathleen and Ayoola are unable to make it the full fifty feet up the rope and and are forced to slide back down.

The drums still sound distant and faint, but they beat steadily and unrelentingly.

OOC: Can gris help someone with climbing ? He is more or less 7.5f tall

"That sounds like a great idea!" Kathleen says.

Gris will try to climb as the last one.
