Gimblefizz wants the party and the contained shard aboard before the isle collapses, but refuses to destroy his airship waiting for stragglers.

The party controls the contained shard and can promise Gimblefizz a safe, intact delivery. Gimblefizz controls the only immediate escape route.

• Offer the shard intact in exchange for one extra round.
• Use the old iron ring to anchor a grappling line.
• Time movement to the shard’s dim pulse and the wind’s lull.
• Turn the abandoned rope into a harness or safety line.
• Call for aid from Gimblefizz’s crew while crossing.

• Athletics DC 15 to secure the grappling hook or anchor a rope line.
• Acrobatics DC 14 to cross a crumbling platform or leap between stones.
• Sleight of Hand DC 12 to rig a harness or stabilize a comrade.
• Use a climber’s kit or grappling kit for +2 on the relevant Athletics check.
• Use feather fall, levitate, mage hand, or similar magic to replace one check when used creatively.
• After the line is secured, make Acrobatics DC 15 to reach the rail and Athletics DC 13 to haul yourself aboard.

• At 1 success: Gimblefizz throws down a coil of line and shouts, 'Catch it before the wind does!'
• At 2 failures: Gimblefizz starts the engines and warns, 'One more mistake and I leave!'
• At 4 successes: Gimblefizz orders the crew to brace the rail and holds the ship steady.
• At 2 failures and 4 successes: Gimblefizz offers one final aid action, then pulls away if another failure occurs.
