Ah, So someone needs to be on the cart to steer the horses too?

I have a pretty decent Calm skill, which I believed is used for animal handling?

Might be good. How much 'extra' room is on the cart? A space for a driver and a 'shotgun'? Or did it already have a driver? (supplied by Indius)

I imagine it will be an athletics or even force to get our way through. Putting both our less-beefy members on the cart, or even riding bears might be a good thing. It there's only space for one maybe Moira can ride a bear?

The wagon has a driver. And there is enough froom for a "shotgun", yes.

You may be able to get one more on top of the canopy, but no more than that otherwise it'd likely collapse from the weight, and at that, putting one person up there is risking it a bit.

Force or Athletics are both acceptable skills to resist the waves! And the bears are, well...bear-weight, so they hav plenty of ability to resist being pushed by the waves.

Nope, and by the time the duplication timer runs out, the landbridge will be safe to walk on.

What's the rider's name? Ericka would've asked. ...Or peaked.

So, I just want to get clarification on what the plan here is;

Ericka is going to ride shotgun on the wagon, while Moira is summoning up bears for the rest of you wielders to ride and help kee pyou from getting swept off into the ocean? At least until the duplication trick wears off, at which point it's just a matter of whether anything shows up to try and stop you, or eat you.

Sound about right?

Alright, if that's good with everyone, I've made some rolls for the bears, they're fine. Lloyd, I'll need Athletics or Force, or anything you can justify to resist being swept away by the waves.

Being anchored with rope to the wagon or something will give a level of advantage.

Did anyone else not want to ride a bear across the dangerous water-covered land bridge?

So far it seems:
Moira - on a bear, who rolled to stay on it's feet
Ericka - on cart, no roll needed
Lloyd - on foot, roll succeeded
One bear remaining, already rolled, could be ridden.
Remaining character(s) to make some (likely strength-based) roll. Advantage if you're tethered.

Is that the right of it?

Sounds about right. You can also conjure up another bear if you like. It's not like it takes too much time in game.

I just want to get us rolling. :)
