"Yeah, it would, but we've got what we've got. Someone had a good idea with that vine rope, they just overestimated how strong the vines are. how about we collect some vines of our own and make a stronger rope?"

Gather all the vines I can find that aren't next to the cliff edge, and bring them back to Spear-Girl-Who-Still-Hasn't-Told-Me-Her-Name.

Edmund sighs. "Should've seen that coming. Damned man-child."
Brace for impact. By, y'know, aiming my armored bits at the ground.

((Edit- I'll be insanely amused if I don't die from this.
In that situation, incidentally, could I get Billy Snow as my nemesis(with all the bonuses that entails)? :D))

Also, what colour am I?))
Green. You're Nancy, correct?

i can't believed that worked, except he survived.
Wait a turn or two. On average, it should take about 6 turns to reach the bottom, and I don't think anyone's made it to four yet...
(Unless you count Ace, but she mostly wasn't tumbling down the cliff.)

"Uh.... yeah i just kidding about the killing part..." Unlucky says to the girl he tried to kill. And now there's a second one in here... Well back to killing people.

Get Mylio to chew through the artery in the new girl's neck while I use the halberd as a javilin on the book girl. After that, loot everything off the guy I killed... atleast everything I can wear and hold at once.

Help gather vines, staying away from the edge. if attacked, fire jewels at them before hitting them with the club.

Nancy watches as her coat begins doing...things. She glares up from the book at the guy who zapped her coat.
She takes this as a challenge, and tries to leap at his face and strangle him with her now Animated coat.

"Hello, miss?"
[8-2v9+1-1&7+3v9+1] Jill heads out the door, [5+1] determining that her new clothes have a couple abilities, one which only affects her and one that she can inflict on others. [7+3+1-2v5-1] The chipmunk catches up to Jill, [4+3] leaping up to Jill's neck and [5+1-2v8+1] missing her. Jill [8+1v6+1] slashes at the chipmunk with...nothing in particular. [1-4v8-1+1] It gives the little rodent's fur a nice trim. It once again [9+3;9+1v8+1] leaps, this time striking true [1-3+1v6+1-1] but not breaking the skin. [2+1v8+1] Jill misses, [5+3;2+1-2v1+1-1;9-3v7+1] and Mylio's incisors incise at her neck. This is...not good. [9+1-1-1] The bleeding swiftly starts to slow.
Meanwhile inside, E.U, who has not yet solved the issue of which is his personal name and which is his surname, hurls his polearm. [4+1-1-2v10-2] The big man is a bit embarrassed by the outcome; he gets stabbed by an inconvenient spike, nearly stopping it in midair! [10+1v2+1] His strength is his undoing; the spike tore straight through his arm! [7+1-2] It hurts. (And I noticed a tyop in the rules--it seems I wrote that bit on bleeding when I forgot I was using a d10 system.) Nancy pauses, then hurries for the bleeding man, shaking her animated labcoat at him. [7-1] It wriggles on her,  trying to get off.

i can't believed that worked, except he survived. Walk around the mountain, constantly pressing the vine button.
You do so. Whee! Shame that those people keep picking vines.

Something sharp and not a fucking polearm would be GREAT right now. We could stab it into the rock, and tie ourselves to each other. There's GOT to be a way down.
Judge how safe it would be to attempt landing on the ledge.
Well...judging by the blood, you'd probably break something. So, not very.
You are brought a large supply of vines.

"Yeah, it would, but we've got what we've got. Someone had a good idea with that vine rope, they just overestimated how strong the vines are. how about we collect some vines of our own and make a stronger rope?"

Gather all the vines I can find that aren't next to the cliff edge, and bring them back to Spear-Girl-Who-Still-Hasn't-Told-Me-Her-Name.
You do so.

Strangely, no one attacks you. How nice. Anyways, you get more vines.

[3+1] No such luck. [9-1-2] As the rocks become steeper and more jagged, though, you manage to avoid more severe injuries. [MPR: 2] The (acceptable) cost comes in progress; you think you've passed the thirdway point.

Activate the jumper that inflict. If that fails, either in killing the chipmunk or working, tell it to stop attacking me, politely. If that fail, slice and dice it.

"Pardon me, little thing(never seen a chipmunk) will you stop that?"

(chipmunks are a lot like ground-based squirrels with tiny tails.)

make another rope out of the vines, attempt to make it noticeably stronger than the broken one hanging off the cliff.

"Goddamn my bad luck!" Unlucky yells out about his bleeding arm.

I killed without weapons once and i can do it again! Kick the girl with all my might and if she's still alive pour in some Karma into my second try! have Mylio keep doing what she's doing and/or stop being a chipmunk.
