Dryad Backstory:
Elene grew up in the most verdant part of Darkmoon Vale, she spent her youth singing to a gigantic and ancient pear tree that grew in a sacred grove known only to druids and the fae. The forest had long been under siege from lycanthropes and Elene had of necessity grown strong, rallying the normal and not so normal forest animals to it's defense. Yet despite every effort, every sacrifice, they where loosing. Oh they wouldn't be overwhelmed this year or the next, but slowly, inexorably the lycans where increasing their numbers and their territory. Defeat when it came, would be total.
Elene had lost all hope, and was grimly holding on when the charismatic young mage offered her a bargain. He would banish the lycans forever, if only she'd let him harvest the fruit from her tree in the light of the full moon. It was a small price to pay for hope.
Alas she was deceived, for the mage was a necromancer who hid the ugly truth of his existence under many layers of illusion. He was after that rarest thing, the salty tear of the fae, a magical curiosity, one of many needed to fuel a fell ritual that would buy him immortality.
Under the sacred moonlight, the necromancer was good to his twisted word. He wrought a mighty spell that did indeed banish the lycans, however at a terrible price. It sucked the life-force the trees and animals and salted the land for leagues around. The necromancer harvested the tear and vanished on the wings of putrid magic.
Elene would have died within the hour for sure, except Syitira finally bestirred herself. She took the comatose and dying Dryad in her arms and carried her deep into the embrace of the forest, to a silent grove where a single acorn had just germinated... As the Dryad lay sleeping, nestled around the sapling, Syntira whispered into her ear, "From a tiny acorn, a mighty Oak will grow. Treasure it, for one day it's fruit will be carried by heroes to heal the land's salted wounds". As Syntira spoke the words, she knew they had the power of prophecy.

I had a look and I don't think there are any rules for what happens if you try to do this without acrobatics.
I'd personally rule that an AOO would be triggered and in some circumstances it would be impossible (I.e. if a corridor is completely blocked by a bulky creature).
Crossing through an enemy square is covered in the movement section I'm pretty sure. If I'm not mistaken, acrobatics is required to do it, and if you fail to beat their cmd then you can't go through. It may also provoke an AoO on a fail, but I can't remember.
For something that's incorporeal or gaseous, yea, I see it working a lot better.
Just got caught up on the last 50 gameplay posts, and I gotta say you guys are giving as good as your getting. But those wights and the wraith are gonna make things go nuts if they end up dropping anyone.

Last time i fought a wight was a cairn wight. A warrior chief appearantly, my eidolon took 2 lvl drains, but i was so happy she could dmg him, contrary to the 0dmg arrow rolls and reduced dmg a normal sword dealt.
Yeah, that was a fail on my part. At first I forgot about the mirror images, then I assumed it needed to make a roll for that so I posted an edit. Then I went back and reread the lifesense descriptor and reedited the post. Its a mess but the result is that Silas is hit.

I found a picture that might be in the direction Hecktor would appear as now.
Save for the color of his armor, which i reckon is a dark blue-ish, with the cold rider and all.

Unless anyone has a better idea for helping Gilmork, I'd like to remind everyone that Lucanor has a scroll of cure serious wounds in the bag of holding, we also have a number of healing potions.
For sake of argument, using hero points it might be possible to use that scroll and do something else.
A long intensive end of the week and having a weekend off with my girl. Took up more time than I had anticipated. Unsure of my posting abilities until tomorrow.
