Dragons of Despair 1.11 -- The Test of High Sorcery
With a cry, Aelina was swept over the side. There was a brief scream as she started to fall, but Ayrron was already moving, throwing his little tube over the side. The little cylinder spun end over end, caught the wind, and opened to catch Aelina around the waist and shoulders, slowing her fall to something a little less deadly.
The little four-legged construct Ayrron had built was over the side a second later, spreading its gossamer-thin wings as it angled its flight down to intercept. It pushed Aelina towards the the cliff wall, where she tried to hold on, but found that while she was falling slower, she was still falling, and trying to find a handhold while falling was a little more challenging than expected.
Up above on the cliff face, Vailin had tried to leap in front of the blow meant for Aelina, but found himself too slow. He aimed a desultory blow at the winged woman, but missed as she spread her wings and floated up and back, her serpentine tail curling beneath her.
OOC: Let's roll some initiative and first actions. Aelina is currently falling (slowly) at 60 feet per second. The rest of you are on the cliff face with the winged woman.
