As Jade and Katarina share their lives over the flickering fire light the cavern lights up with a flash of lightening outside as thunder rumbles in the distance. The weather us making the mounts restless. The whiney and move with the echoing sounds of the weather outside. Their watch is nearly over when the mounts again make distressed sounds as the bad weather continues outside the cavern!
OOC give me a perception check

Sometimes a Nat 1 tells a better story than a Nat 20 ever could.
(Since Kat's gonna grapple an escapee, I'll reroll without the advantage. If the new roll is higher than 10 I assume we'll drop it back down to the original roll. 5)
Katarina, realizing that their efforts to tether the beasts aren't going according to plan, tries a desperate ploy to stop their escape. She wraps her arms around one of the beasts and attempts to stop its escape.

Unhappy that the market got rid of individual purchases for one-off subclasses, magic items, and monsters?
Katarina doesn't succeed holding the horse and the lead snaps from it's tethered point! The mounts begin to react to the storm pulling away from the cavern and fleeing down the mountain side!

Eila jumps bolt upright at the slightest sound of a disturbance and her hand flies to her warhammer. Niska calls out the horses, but Eila focuses on the paladin darting off into the storm after them.
She hisses a slightly profanity-laden version of the incantation for guidance under her breath as she rolls up onto her feet to give chase.
"We need to get after them, come with me," she shouts to the others as she passes by them and runs out of the cave mouth.
Jade witnesses the horses disperse in three directions. The horses on loan from Candlekeep bolt down the steep path to the cavern whilst Millicent's and their mules are no where to be seen! The large painted horse Elliðaey was riding white coat flashes in the lightening that crackles across the cloudy sky as thunder rumbles loudly and the rain soaks Jade through!
Eila can see Jade heading towards the horses with both Niska and Elliðaey following.
"Jade," Elliðaey shouts. "Forget them! Come back," she adds her tone full of concern as the weather only continues to get worse!
OOC Jade make a DEX save, please to see if you remain sure footed in your pursuit! If Eila continues she needs to make one too.

OOC if Katarina pursues then yes DEX save. @Grover sliding was a surprise bit movement could be aided by acrobatics or athletics. It's considered difficult terrain.
Jade stumbles bit remains upright bit Eila immediately fumbles on the loose, slick ground unhelped by her heavy armor. The horses have now disappeared from immediate range of dark vision. As Elliðaey reaches Eila first helping the human to her feet again she freezes noticing immediately Niska's body going ridge too as she pulls her bow and knocking an arrow.
"Everyone...get behind me," Niska says in everyone's head as six sets of glowing eyes come into range 60ft away from the party moving up from below!

Both women notice that the mounts have loosen the line Jade hung up to tethering them together! It would be wise to work together to resercure it!
OOC someone give me survival with aid from the other PC.

Perception for Eila: 24
OOC Damian_May?
Niska and Elliðaey wake up with Eila!
"What...what's wrong, " Elliðaey calls out holding onto her spear as she gets to her feet.
Niska looks around and immediately spots the fleeing mounts into the dark mountain side!
"The horses," Niska exclaims as Jade follows after them.

OOC as a half-elf you do have dark vision however your going out into a storm. I won't impose disadvantage because of the specific feat!

(Dex check 14. Not that it matters for Jade, but would Acrobatics apply for maintaining balance?)
Eila presses on despite the unstable rubble and the slippery mud, hand ready at her holy symbol to put a stop to this.
( DEX save 3. If I make that, I'd like to ready sleep to trigger the moment you deem a horse is in 90ft range)
Millicent is startled to wakefulness but confused as to what is happening and discombobulated.

As Niska spoke Millicent drew a torch from her satchel, it burst into light as she held it high, struggling to her feet.
" What is it?"
