(Sorry, I thought the ledge started 60 feet away from us. It sounds like it actually is reachable from where we are and goes all the way around the cavern to the exit, 60 feet away?)

(Yeah I was fairly unclear...you can get on the ledge from the ground, and work your way around it carefully.)

Manju, you catch a few snippets of things like "stupid drow" "better off in the pen" and "crawling around like rats"

Topsy shoots him a look but doesn't say anything.

Don looks down at the ledge below, "Well, I don't know how I missed seeing that, it's so obvious now that you point it out." Don puts his pitons and hammer back in his pack. "It is a very narrow ledge though, isn't it? Perhaps we should tie ourselves together, for safety?"

Tie together sounds wise, but not too close together in case that ledge crumbles - we'll want more on solid ground than are hanging

"Let's have the rope I think."  Tempest agrees as she takes in the area ahead.  "Our only other choice is to climb down and then back up, and who knows how far down the bottom of this might be..."  looking at the small ledge she gulps though.  "Plus is that, if we can figure a way to destroy the ledge behind us somehow, we could pretty effectivly cut off any chance of the drow catching us easily."

"I think tying us together is a good idea, but we should probably alternate people, light and heavy, so if someone slips we have a better chance of the others catching them."

Manju - Standing near Turvy and assessing the ledge "I can go first, might be beneficial to have someone nimble and slender go first."

Lets be restrained about destroying paths - those traders show, not everyone down here is chasing us. Who knows, we may have to come back this way.

Gadvelt will give out the silk rope thinking it's a better safety line, and act as rear guard while the party gets started 

Perception to watch our backs 6

"I'll just run ahead and make sure the coast is clear."  Buppito informs the others.  "I'm not big enough to help if any of you fall anyway..."  He then scampers along the ledge, a bit careless of his own safety.

Acrobatics?:  6

(Or athletics, if you want to give it another roll)

Gadvelt, you don't see anything behind you. Everyone besides Buppido, an acrobatics or athletics check with advantage. 

As they venture out onto the ledge Don whispers a quiet prayer to Mask and begins to sing under his breath, "Ho ho and up she rises. Ho ho and up she rises. Ho ho and up she rises, early in the morning..."

Acrobatics, 14

Athletics for Buppito:  6

Tempest acrobatics roll:  17

Egret Athletics: 23 +1

Egret will place a hand on his chest and whisper a short prayer to Gond. (casting guidance

Ront is edgy, looking back and at the ledge in turn. He'll go towards the later half of the group Athletics 21

Gadvelt stows weapons and ties on when most have gone, ready to hold or pull if needed, then goes last Athletics 23

Buppido bounds up on to the ledge, not even bothering to press up against the side. He gets almost 10 feet before his foot slips off the side, crumbling the rock and making him slip.

(Another acrobatics/athletics to see if he grabs on to the ledge, and whoever's in front can make an athletics check to try and grab him)

Acrobatics: 10

OOC: Bupp went in first, R.I.P.
