"One thing though, how do we know he won't turn and walk along the gully bottom? It would be frustrating to get atop the other side just to have him head back in." "Should we at least untie his legs down there an see what happens?"
Carini doffs her armor, giving Vulf the opportunity for all the leers that he might like. She draws the rope up to the top and with Mentys and Vulf's help, ties and then lowers Kalkamedes to the bottom.
When the rope shakes, indicating that Kranzer has taken Kalkamedes off the rope, she draws the rope back up once more to tie her armor off, then lowers it into the gulch. She waits for Mentys to climb to the bottom before climbing down herself. Hudor follows, leaving Farlen at the top by himself.
While the mage unhooks the grappling hook and uses his mage hand to carry it across the canyon and tie it off on the other side, the party at the bottom removes the binding from Kalkamedes legs to confirm that he intends to go up the other side.
Assuming that proves to be the case...
When Kalkamedes starts bumping into the wall like one of those gnomish wind-up toys, they retie his legs. They call to Farlen to come down; he lets himself fall as he casts a feather fall spell off a scroll to catch himself before he hits the bottom. Krazer, Mentys, and Carini all climb to the top at the other side. Carini draws her armor up to the top, untying it and setting it aside to put back on later. She lowers the rope again, and Kranzer, Hudor, and Farlen retie Kalkamedes to the rope. The three at the top draw Kalkamedes up to the top, then drop the rope one one more time for each person at the bottom. They all tie themselves to the rope and allow them to be drawn up to the top.
When everyone is up, Carini dons her armor yet again, and the group is ready to untie Kalkamedes and let him proceed.

"Beauty, strength, and wit." utters Vulf admiringly as Carini deftly executes her plan with the aid of the other Pathfinders. "Er jeg ikke mer enn en stein blant dyrebare edelstener?"
You get up the cliffs safely if not with some difficultly. You take Kalkamedes a safe distance away from the edge before setting him free once again. Indeed he does move forward and not back towards the gorge. Soon the trail starts to narrow and your forced to move single file through an abundance of shrubs and bushes. Several times Kranzer guesses the wrong trail Kalkamedes will take as the narrow game trails leading through these 6 -8ft tall shrubs continually branch off. Kranzer therefore decides to shorten the distance between himself and Kalkamedes, tired of constantly back tracking, in order to keep in front. Great bands of stars sweep across the cloudless night sky, illuminating a series of game trails that chase through the mountain shrubs and berry bushes.
ok your forced to go single file in this area so I’ll need a new marching order. There is a fork in the road up ahead anyone out in front must decide if they go right or left or wait for Kalkamedes to the pass them. Give kalkamedes position in the marching order and everyone’s position and distance relative to Kalkamedes please

"Lets let one person go ahead of Kalkamedes. So if he goes one way in a fork, we can hold him up long enough for that one person to make a correction."
Hudor will walk directly behind Kalkamedes. Making him 3rd in marching order if everyone goes with his suggestion.

Mentys grins at a crisis well averted when he reaches the other side. "Not a bad idea. Strongly implemented, too; I haven't checked my weight in some time but I could be around 250 pounds."
Given that I'm tied to Kalkamedes, how about I'll be right in front of him? Likely closer to the fore, so he's protected in the middle and I have the ability to melee. As to the fork, I say we let Kalkamedes go forward a bit, then cut back ahead of him once he makes a choice.
Carini will remain taking up the rear, holding the end of the rope should Kalkamedes get away.
"Kranzer, when you hit a fork in the path, there's probably no sense scouting ahead too much on either one. Wait at the junction and let Kalkamedes show us where he's intending to go."
Ok So I'll need either Vulf or Hudor to walk behind Kalkamedes not both...path too narrow in most spots here. Also, what is Kranzer doing still ranging out front? in back somewhere? Inquiring minds want to know. Farlen I'll assume your next to last right in front of Carini? you cool with that?

Farlen settles in just in front of Carini. "The rope will show us where to go." "We can pull back long enough to slow Kalk down and Mentys can get back in front."
Kranzer ranges ahead still, but keeping to about 10 feet ahead most times within the winding paths. In the tight confines, he stows his bow and keeps a short sword out to chop at any overgrowth.

Marching order is Kranzer 10' ahead, Mentys tied to Kalkamedes, then Hudor, Vulf, Farlen holding rope, carini holdind rope. "In Sargava, as a kid playing in the jungles, I would see a mommy monkey lead her younglings around while they clung to her trail. Without much light here, I feel like a monkey and I look like one too. Do you?" He whispers his comment to Carini singing the last part to the tune of 'Happy Birthday'.

OK so I did some rolls previously that, just got ghosted away in the Saturday and late Friday server problems. So just roll with what's going on here.
Kranzer and Mentys range out a little ahead of Kalakamedes managing to stay ahead of him at nearly every turn. You end up in a berry patch walking at a steady gate. Kranzer is constantly looking over his shoulder back at Kalkamedes, to make sure he doesn't loose him in the maze of bushes. He so busy paying attention to Kalkamedes, he's startled when Mentys says,"hold-up.' and points at a bear feasting on berries only 20ft ahead of Kranzer's current position.

Doesn't sound as if it's immediately hostile, so could I use Wild Empathy? It takes a minute, so perhaps not, plus I'm not very good at it.
If So:
"Be careful what I wish for, I know," Mentys mutters to himself, as he tries to assume a calming attitude towards the bear. He moves slightly closer. "Hello there...it's okay, we won't hurt you...."
Wild Empathy:1d20 + 1 ⇒ (13) + 1 = 14
If Not:
Mentys draws his twin axes and interposes himself between the bear and the tethered Kalkamedes. "Besides, maybe it won't be angry...right." Following this cynical thought process, he prepares to counterattack.

Wait, I'm dumb. Scratch the readied attack, I mixed up which character I had Quick Draw on.
Here's the problem it does take a minute to use wild empathy..and you could attempt it..but who will stop Kalkamedes? Kranzer has his bow drawn readied action...you would start the wild empathy.. R 1 initiative starts...Kranzer has readied action , Mentys wild empathy, Carni is holding rope, Kalkamedes turn..he does opposed str. check vs. Carini if he wins he double moves right in to the bear..bear attacks Kranzer's readied shot goes off ect..
Kranzer has already declared his action.. I'll have Mentys begin his wild empathy check...then move directly to round 1 where you both can switch your actions if need be because, you have initiative over Kalkamedes.
Kranzer readies his bow to shoot the bear. Mentys begins to talk softly to the creature, trying to soothingly drive it away.
Kranzer decides to act before the creature attacks and lets loose an arrow. unfortunately, the arrow doesn't pierce the hide of the toughened bear and only serves to irritate it. It immediately roars and turns to face the intruders.

"Fine. Let go of Kalk if you want, I'll be closer to the bear - and more of a threat," Mentys grouses as he trundles down the path and takes a massive underhand swing with his larger axe.
The bear roars in confusion, pain, and rage as Mentys axe sinks deep in it. Kalkamedes tugs against the rope Carini is holding str:1d20 ⇒ 16 Despite the rope being twisted around several bushes, Kalkamedes tugs on the rope to no avail and flails around making awful grunting noises while attempting to lurch forward.

Normally he likes to reserve these attacks for more dangerous foes. But with the risk to Kalkamedes being high, Hudor decides to unleash his blood infused elemental attacks.
Hudor points his finger at the bear and a ray of freezing death shoots out toward the bear.
Again the poor bear mouth full of delicious Blackberries...howls in pain as Hudor's freezing ray strikes it.. I was just having my nighttime snack! Why two legs sneak up on me and hurt me?
(Hudor I'm moving you to a position that you have line of site on the bear..it was engaged in Melee with Mentys so -4{u still hit} to hit without precise shot. In addition anyone trying to shoot through Hudor, must over-come the soft cover bonus.)

“ Er det en bjørn jeg hører?” Vulf wonders. Upon hearing its cries, Vulf mutters, ” Å bry meg.”
Skald:
“ Is that a bear I hear? Oh bother.”
Do I make sure that Kalkamedes stays put or do I try to end this before that animal or our slumbering companion have other ideas? Vulf ponders for a moment, before deciding to take action.
“Hold that rope tight and keep a close eye on our dreamer.” Vulf instructs Carini. ”That is, if you can bear to take your eyes off of me.” he adds as he races ahead to the sounds of conflict.
Upon rounding the corner of the trail, Vulf gets a view of the wounded beast. “Poor thing.” the cleric says regretfully as he spies the mixture of fresh blood and frost matting the bear’s fur. “But we can’t risk you mauling Kalkamedes and turning our ally into an appetizer, our sleeper into supper, our meaderer into a meal, our traveler into a treat….” the Ulfen stops and shakes his head. ”No matter, you don’t understand me anyways. ”
Grabbing ahold of his holy symbol, the cleric prays aloud, “Father of the Forge, I know you have an affinity for those who dwell in caves. Yet, I pray for the safety of our companion, Kalkamedes. Therefore, let this creature by stung by your hand, Master Creator, and let that touch be sufficient to convince this beast to return to its den. Once there, may it find comfort within the welcoming arms of the ground.”

Farlen, surprised at the violent direction of the encounter, momentarily thinks a bear coat might be a nice addition to this wardrobe but quickly realizes the absurdity of this situation.
Farlen releases the rope with his right hand and reaches in his pack. "Ahh, there is my wand." "Zappo!" A red streak of energy flies into the bear. magic missile wand charge:1d4 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2 Secretly hoping the bear runs away. I hate destroying things just minding their own business. "Berries or no berries, run away, you great, big, lumbering omnivore. We are death and you are in the way."

Ok Farlen you don't have line-of-sight to that bear..you can trudge through the bushes back on to the path but, the berry bushes do have a few thorns and look like they're not fun to bust through. I'll leave you as a hold action; you may jump in at anytime..remember you cannot see on the other side of those berry bushes. Vulf barely had a shot with his acid dart (I gave the bear a +6 cover bonus for the tough angle and the fact that a person was blocking his shot) in addition the bear is melee giving Vulf a -4 to hit. with magic missile you only need to see the bear..but you don't right now. Feel free to jump in when you want Farlen and don't forget to move your pawn id you're entering combat.

Now in some pain, Mentys' eyes roll over like marbles, their whites replaced with a deep red hue. He roars and whirls about, utilizing both of his axes in a deadly spin. "Should've...run!"
Kranzer surges forward, dropping his bow next to Hudor while drawing his two short swords. He tries to crack the bear over the head with the flat of the blade.
Mechanics:
Free Action
Drop bow.
Move Action
Move up to bear while drawing shortswords.
Carini relaxes her pull on the rope just enough so that she can gage which direction Kalkamedes is trying to go.
If K is trying to go down the path that leads by the bear:
Carini pulls back on the rope with all the force she had been using prior, to keep Kalkamedes out of danger.
Strength:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
If K is trying to go down any other path:
Carini keeps her restraint relaxed, allowing Kalkamedes to lead himself out of danger. She will yell to the others once she herself is past the path that leads to the bear.
The bear goes down under a flurry of chopping axes wielded by Mentys.
COMBAT OVER
However, there's little respite as Kalkamedes tugs Carini forward.
(if someone wants to heal Mentys while moving down the path let me know)
Over the course of another two hours, the rough, mountainous scrubland gradually flattens and gives way to thicker copses of trees sustained by a series of chilly, narrow streams. Kalkamedes’s trail meanders northward.
As you trudge through the woods, both Vulf and Mentys spot some movement in the bushes, up ahead. Suddenly, the forest comes alive with action as several highway men reveal their positions ready to loose their slings on a mostly unsuspecting group.
remember Mentys hands would be occupied holding Kalkamedes rope.
Kranzer is struck by multiple sling bullets before he's even aware of his enemies! Likewise Vulf is also hit by a solid blow. However, both man and Dwarf, remain standing.

The red eyes roll over once more, restoring Mentys to his normal self, if a bit tired. "Wish it hadn't come to that," he mutters. Making his way back to Vulf, he takes his wand back or lets the Ulfen use it to patch up his cut. "I'll take the next turn with Kalk."

When trouble breaks out once again, Mentys is in possession of Kalkamedes. "Get out there and have some fun, Carini; I've had my turn.

Surprise Round ”Brigands!" hollers Vulf just before the stone from one of the attacker’s sling strikes him square in the forehead.
The sharp pain piercing his skull and the sudden warmth coming over his face leave Vulf disoriented. But only for a moment. Realizing that the source of the warmth is his own life-blood flowing from his wound, the Ulfen prepares for action. I am of no use to my companions dead. Vulf thinks.
Regretting having stowed away the wand Mentys had given him, Vulf realizes that he has only seconds to act. Clutching his holy symbol he recites a prayer to his god. ”Father of the Forge, pour forth the divine spirit and vigor from the ladle of your blessed foundry and cast the broken form of your servant anew.”

Mentys begins to secure Kalkamedes. Vulf cures himself a little of the damage the sling bullet just did to him. Carini moves towards the attackers.

Still feeling his wound and seeing the bandits cut into his comrades, Vulf's Ulfen blood begins to boil. Suppressing the berserker rage common among his people, the cleric attempts to think strategically. But as he sees the attacker's blades cut into Carini, the northman is spurred to action.
While racing toward the half-elf maiden, Vulf reaches for Mentys' wand and strains forward to bring it into contact with the fighter and to trigger its effect.

Mentys easily maintains his hold on Kalkamedes, then sets about tying him up. Hope they save one for me, he thinks absentmindedly, not having looked up to check how the battle is going.
Carini's weapon has reach, so red should have earned himself an AoO with that approach. Actually, green would have too, but she doesn't have Combat Reflexes, so can't use the AoO vs green.
Finding herself immediately surrounded, Carini steps to the side to get out from between the two attackers. She drops her guisarme, as it will do no good in these close quarters. She draws her own scythe to match the attacker, and swipes fiercely at him.
Actions:
5' step Free: drop guisarme Move: draw scythe Standard: attack red
The map looks a little askew; I can't quite tell if Kranzer is flanking red with Carini or not. The attack below assumes that he is. If he isn't, Carini makes this a readied attack that goes off when Kranzer moves into flanking position.

On phone so I need movement help.
Farlen mumbles something like, "Barrier." and moves up to just west of Kranzer and vulf and between them.
Casts shield standard action and moves for move action.
As Vulf is struck in the face with a sling pellet, Kranzer slaps his knee, almost doubling over. ”Ha! They got holy-man in the head! Did you see that? What a shot! What a--” Then four pellets strike him in quick succession in the forehead before he can act. He stands there stunned, a deep, purple groove setting in above his eyebrows.
”Right then, to business,” he says darkly.
