OOC: When I sat in the theater and the movie started, I was like oh cool, I didn't know this was a Steven Seagal movie. Then 10 minutes later I was not the only one expressing shock that his character died. It was back in the 90s so maybe he suffered a save-or-die.

*OOC (all below):
I went to the theater with a friend, both of us thinking it was going to be a sort of Russell/Seagal "buddy" action movie or highly skilled frenemy rivals working together type movie. After that scene my friend actually said out loud, "Wait, did Steve just die?" Whole theater laughed. We held out hope that during the inevitable breach of the aiplane's cabin, it would turn out Seagal had been hanging onto the wing all this time and crawl in to save the day.
Wasn't a bad flick.
So yes, I wasn't about to get written out of this movie through a senseless environmental hazard accident, and let Toots get all the glory.
Also World Building, apparently our city has had access to ancient Vault containing the film scrolls of the Brothers Warner. Theologians probably debate the Pantheon of the Justice League as well as the role of the Snyder Schism that struck worship of that Pantheon.

Well good on you! That Toots is such a *****, she doesn’t deserve it. 🤣😂🤣
“Tommary, you okay up there?” Since Toots is pretty confident that this fight will go our way (since one Wight is down and the other is still wool gathering), so she will move out towards the middle of the dried mud field and use her Action to look for another passage down on the ground floor. (Both she and I are convinced there has to be one, or at least something to make it easier to get up and down rather than climbing the walls.)
Perception: 23
You notice that the gnolls might have possibly dug the tunnel up instead of at a slant to be a the same height as the discs or doorways but for some reason they thought it was a better idea to dig to the level of the mud.

Curiouser and curiouser.... Could she use her Bonus Action and/or her once per turn free item interaction to collect a sample of this mud?

Sure, you slice off a cake of the dried mud which has some wet mud and glowing fungus on it.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Whatever oils remain from the mud splatter, Tommary uses them to grease his hair back into a sketchy pony tale in style times of yore once called a "Seagal" and tried again to advance further along the platforms in a move, dash, cunning action dash. If he makes it to the cave opening, he's letting the Wight trip out on the light fantastic till Elyona makes it up so he can take advantage of the partner engagement sneak attack damage.
If Eloyna is still in progress, I can offer her guidance on handholds up to the me as help, if that's allowed and we don't have variant kibitzing rules (though I think my expertise in nature and survival would likely trump that).
Here we go, athletics 19.

OOC: Hey, nice DM person.... I don’t know if this is a pain in the butt request or not, but would it be possible to put the character icon key in initiative order top to bottom on future maps? If that’s a pain in the neck then I’m sorry for asking, but if that’s an easy thing, it would at least help me remember who I go after. (After the 1st round Initiative starts to just go round and round and I don’t remember the order after a while.)
Just a little slip for the suggestion box, wherever it leads.
