Jump Scroll

Jump

Consumable leap scroll that Florin required every inventory-carrying defender to keep ready alongside or instead of a ladder.

Story so far

The barracks building sits on the lip of the hill to deny attackers a straight shot at the castle door, but it also blocks the defenders' own line-of-sight downhill. Florin saw this problem and demanded that everyone with a crawler inventory system keep either a Jump scroll or a ladder ready to go at all times, so defenders could get on and over the structure fast.

The requirement pays off in the cyborg attack, when a wave of defenders needs to get onto the barracks roof and down the far side while Carl uses Climb and Princess Donut leaps in on Mongo.

Appearance

A standard consumable dungeon scroll, carried in inventory for emergency vertical movement.

Role

Mandated defensive kit for crossing the barracks building during a hilltop battle.
