Kha strolls up to the edge of the pool ad the board chatters to the ground. "Well, if anyone is here then I'm pretty sure they know we're here," he says with a chuckle. He takes a step closer and peers into the pool and then across to the other side.

    "Looks cold. If no one is up for a swim, I wonder if we vault over it. Maybe find us a tree we can use to give a little boost."

Or... we use Mage Hand to tie a rope at one end of the plank and drag it over?

(Yes that is possible. Give it a go with the rope)

(OOC : I also have Mage hand, so I'll add a "help" action to give Eline advantage)  

Seeing the logic behind what everyone is suggesting, particularly with the type tied around the board and dragging it over, Eline nods in agreement. 

"Who here has a rope," she asks. "And Reginald, I think we should double-knot it."

     "Here you go." Kha unloops the rope attached to his pack and sets it at the edge of the pool keeping hold of one end. 

(Eline can you roll dexterity check with advantage)

Roxaria gets shivers watching teamwork is building and everyone really coming through contributing with all their unique skills and talents.

In cheerleader fashion, “You can do this, Eline! I believe in you!”

     As the two magic users work at tying the rope around the board, Kha looks into the pool again to check for any threats.

     "Roxy, you want to light us up a torch here?"

(Perception 19, rolled in log)

Roxaria digs in her pack for a torch and pulls out the tinderbox to light it. A faint glow at first as the embers catch the flammable tip and then a larger, luminous glow, heat emanating from the torch as it fully takes. “I suppose at this point, if nobody heard the clatter, they’ll certainly be aware of our presence now.” she observes as the torch glow is quite obvious and the smell of oil tainted rags fills the air.

Kha sees 2 giant ice frogs within the cold waters. At the sight of light they begin to rise poking their heads out of water.

(Animal Handling checks please. Otherwise combat will start)

Roxaria sees the water stir and the heads popping out of the water. Curious, she approaches, standing next to Kha. “Are those…frogs?”

Animal Handling: 10

She holds the torch out to get a better look.

     "Whoa! Watch out!" Kha jumps back from the edge of the pool as the creatures emerge. "I guess we found out how these caves got their name."

(Nat 1, total of 4 Animal Handling
19 Initiative, if needed)

Trem initiative roll: 9

Initiative : 8

(We can still do animal handling checks The DC is 15)

I will roll for Vauthok

7 - animal handling

Trem AH check: 19

(Trem is able to calm befriend 1 of the 2 giant ice frog. You can role play this if you want. It will remain out of combat as long as no one attacks it)

Trem feeds the closer frog some of the moldy bread that he found on the bandits at Pelc's. 

Who's a good boy? Who's a good boy? You are! Yes, you are!

Strangely enough, both Trem and the Giant Ice Frog seem to be having a good time.

Trem looks at Roxaria:

Can I keep it?

“Okay, I admit, you’re being adorable right now.” Roxaria giggles at Trem’s ability to safely keep the attention of the frog. She shrugs unknowingly. “I guess if it will follow you it might help cover our sounds if it can keep croaking if we happen to be making noise around here.”
