carps in japanese legend jump up and over waterfalls and rewarded to by becoming dragons

Navi gets no response back, and the familiar doesn't really see any other paths up to the next area

Wymarc whispers, ”Ladies, I’ll try that rocky path over there…“

He stealthily moves towards the rocks, attempting to silently climb them, keeping an alert eye out for any trouble…

Stealth: 1d20 + 19 ⇒ (20) + 19 = 39
Climb: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23
Perception: 1d20 + 17 ⇒ (6) + 17 = 23

Navi moves stealthily behind Wymarc,
Stealth: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (13) + 10 = 23
and keeps an eye out for any trouble.
Perception: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (14) + 13 = 27

"Good boy, Smelly. Heel. Shh!" Kala puts away the spriggan-scenter, gives Smelly a scratch behind the ears, and gives them both the Aspect of the Monkey to help them climb. Finally, she stows her shield and stealthily follows Wymarc and Navi.

Handle Animal: Push, DC 25: 1d20 + 13 ⇒ (12) + 13 = 25

Stealth: 1d20 + 9 - 3 ⇒ (10) + 9 - 3 = 16
Too bad agile breastplate doesn't negate *all* armor check penalties.
Climb: 1d20 + 7 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 7 + 4 = 29
Perception: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (4) + 14 = 18

Smelly, not generally being the brightest bear, surprisingly is able to grasp Kala's meaning. (The example of her other teammates helps.) He does his best to keep quiet as he climbs after Kala.

Stealth: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (17) + 6 = 23
Climb: 1d20 + 9 + 4 ⇒ (14) + 9 + 4 = 27

Oondeen waits for everyone else to go before tripping sneaking along behind. This is definitely not her forte. The tattoos on her arms glow slightly brighter, faintly lighting up the fog.

Stealth: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (14) + 3 = 17
Climb: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (2) + 0 = 2
Climb: 1d20 + 0 ⇒ (19) + 0 = 19

Rolling multiple since she's likely to fail at least one

Elena follows Wymarc up the rocky path, as silently as she can. If she gets to the top, she will take a look around.

She will of course share any findings with the others.

Every attempt that oona makes she seems to make some progress on the first and slips sliding down 20 ft

her second attempt she just misses the hold but catches herself after sliding down 10

on her third attempt she slides down 20 ft but does manage to get up to the top finally

16 points of damage to Oona

Elena 1st: 1d2 ⇒ 1
Elena Damage 1st: 1d6 ⇒ 3

Elena seeing Oona having difficulty getting up, tries to shift a bit on the path, and looses her grip sliding 10 ft before finally making her way to the top

Elena takes 3 points

Wymarc, Navi, Kala, Smelly, and WRD make it with no issue up

A large bowl-shaped depression in the middle of the ravine lies half-filled by dual waterfalls descending from sheer cliffs above. The pool seems quite deep, with no bottom discernible from the shoreline, and remains turbulent as water funnels through the rocks to drop deeper into the gorge. Every few
seconds a large swell of mist rises from the pool, obscuring all sight before slowly drifting into the forest.

Elena will use the wand of cure light wounds on Oona. Three charges or until she's back at full whatever happens first.

CLW Wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (3) + 1 = 4
CLW Wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (1) + 1 = 2
CLW Wand: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (8) + 1 = 9

Knowing that they're nearing the danger zone, Kala is on full alert, watching for any threats.

Perception: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (14) + 14 = 28

"That's very kind of you to use your wand on Oondeen, Elena."

"Let me fix you up. My wand is fully charged."
Navi taps Elena with her happy stick.
Wand/CLW: 1d8 + 1 ⇒ (7) + 1 = 8

"From now on, let's discuss things before we head into hazardous areas. We could have avoided all these cuts and bruises if just one of us went up there and dropped a rope down."

Kala flushes; she should've thought of that.

Elena thanks Navi. "Ah, she seemed to need it more than I do. This is just a flesh-wound." She chuckles.

as you come to the water flow at the top you can see two large forms in the water as they start to move towards you, and hiss at you

Fixed that for you in regards to Navi ;)

"Hmm. Creatures made of water? I wonder what they could be."
Unfortunately, not trained in Knowledge (planes). Kind of strange for a sylph. :/

Navi mutters an incantation and then white feathered wings sprout on her back. With bow in hand, she presses her arms to her sides, leaps into the air, and flaps her wings. She soars 30 feet straight up.

Knowledge (Planes): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (8) + 8 = 16

White Rose does not expect to parley with these creatures. She's not even sure she can parley with water. She wishes she paid more attention in vigilante class, at least. In any case, she speeds her allies and figures they can handle things.

◆◆ Cast haste

◆ Stride

Can Navi have not flown away before I cast?

@WRD, Navi is about 20' directly above you. She's definitely within the spell's range. I hate the current map since the squares aren't isometric in relation to the view of the area. Anyway, Navi is currently 20' above the pool's surface.

The issue is that all the targets need to be within 30 feet of each other.

The issue is that all the targets need to be within 30 feet of each other.

You're completely fine. Everyone is within 30' of you. To get into detail: According to the map, Navi was on the trail leading up at about 10' below the level of the pool with the 2 waterfalls. You're at the top of the trail level with the pool. Navi flew 30' straight up, placing her 20' above you and the surface of the pool.

"From now on, let's discuss things before we head into hazardous areas. We could have avoided all these cuts and bruises if just one of us went up there and dropped a rope down."

Wymarc frowns as he murmurs. ”Sorry, but I’m a scout; I usually scout ahead…didn’t know everyone was gonna follow me right then…once I had found it secure, I would’ve tossed down a rope…”

Seeing the water creatures start menacingly towards them, Wymarc looses a couple of arrows at the nearest one (red)…

Oh. They're big. Kala's momentarily lost in thought, wondering how such large elementals can get by in such a relatively small body of water. Maybe there's a big lake upstream or some--oh, right! Snapping back to reality, she swings into action. Swiftly she gives herself and Stinky the Aspect of the Bull. Drawing Orc Brains, she charges the nearest elemental, crossing to Smelly's other side, anticipating the arrival of the other elemental and wanting to shield him from the brunt of those attacks.

"Smelly! Attack!"

Kala and Smelly have the Coordinated Distraction feat, which applies if Red tries to cast a spell defensively.

"GRRRRR!!" Smelly has gone from a sleepy teddy bear to an overtired angry bear. Snarling viciously, his paws pound the ground as he thunders toward the elemental to end its existence.

Oondeen also tries to identify the creatures as she stays away from the water.

She points at the red elemental, shouts 3 words (klaatu barada necktie!), and sends a couple bolts of fire into it.

Navi flutters a few feet back towards the island between the two waterfalls on the upper tier.

Then, her voice a thunderous roar, she calls out to the lords of the elemental plane of air. Wisps of clouds high above swirl downward and coalesce into a single, dark stormcloud the width of the fall's pool just above the treetops.
Upon completion of the spell, a lightning bolt streaks down, striking the Red elemental creature accosting her teammates at the pool's edge.
lightning bolt damage: 3d6 ⇒ (4, 1, 3) = 8
DC 17 Reflex for half.

@GM: If the atmospheric conditions within the vicinity of the waterfall and pool are prime for creating lightning, then instead...

I meant to say Attacking! Not ”accosting”.

"Right! Easy. ... Ow. We got two of 'em here." Kala informs anyone who might be too far away to see in the fog. (She can't tell, as it seems like a bad idea to look away from the two looming elementals that could flank her at any moment. She steps sideways to make that a bit more difficult before taking another swing (wishing she could cast a spell without getting knocked to kingdom come) and raising her shield.

Cold Iron Warhammer +1 vs. Red: 1d20 + 9 + 2 ⇒ (3) + 9 + 2 = 14

"Smelly! Heel! Attack!"

Good thing she's wearing a Talisman of Life's Breath.

"I hope no one is back there," Oondeen mutters to herself before pulling out a wand and blowing the fog away with gust of wind.

60 foot line

Apologies for the delay. Part of a tree fell down and was leaning on our neighbor's house. All taken care of, and no damage done. The tree was slated for removal anyway.

Smelly steps sideways along with Kala and lashes out at the elemental still in front of it (red).

Able to see clearly through the mystical fog, Navi flutters a few feet back over the trees on the river's island.
"This must be the source of where the thick fog is coming from!" she shouts across the roar of the waterfalls to her friends.

She calls down another bolt of lightning, this one striking the blue creature...
