OOC: Of course Auriel can attempt all of that if he wishes. I just checked the rulebook, and ain't no rule says a paladin can't attempt a climb ;)
Hex Perception:25
OOC: Well, Hex can see through time. I'll hold my description of what she sees until Auriel/Hildigrim/Carl are in place, because Hex's roll alone will be enough to reveal anything pertinent, but of course the other characters don't know that.
Auriel quickly helps Hildigrim back to his feet, glancing toward the barricade to make sure no one saw anything and that they haven't drawn attention. He checks the windows and doors of the building the halfling selected, just in case any of them are unlocked. If they're not, he attempts the climb himself.
If he succeeds, he drops his rope and helps the halfling up, then takes a moment to peer down at the scene below, now that they have a better vantage point.
(OOC: And if he fails as well, he curses under his breath… and waits to see whether Hex has had better luck.)
As he falls for the third time, Hildigrim's mind betrays him by remembering his slip into the freezing Moonsea just a tenday ago. At least here, it is only his pride that is hurt. The halfling forcefully dusts himself off, muttering a "Hainard's hairy toes" under his breath.
Running his hands through his hair, he sighs. He begins to voice his resignation of remaining on the ground when he sees Auriel begin to try to climb himself.
