This thread is reserved for your in game role, which may bestow you with an ability you can use in the game.

If your role type is "Active", you will need to post role actions in this thread. Only role actions posted in this thread will be accepted.

For more information on roles, please see the "roles" section on the gameplay guide: http://www.ndimforums.com/lab4/thread.asp?threadid=5&pp=15#7

Your role will be given out at the beginning of Phase 1. An update will be posted at that time and this post will contain your role description. This thread will remain locked until you have a role.

Role Title: Icarus
Role Type: Active

Flavour:
You've had to move quickly in your time, and this has taught you how to climb like a pro!

Role Ability:
During any phase, you may choose to exit either Up or Down as opposed to taking one of the other room exits, even if these exits are not present. This will fail if there is not a room either above or below you, depending on which exit you choose. Otherwise you will move up or down a level at the end of the phase.

If I'm with a group and they're exiting a certain way, and I try to go up when there is no such exit, am I still able to follow the group or will I be left behind?

I'll let you know it's failed and you can re-exit. The only delay will be if I'm not around to update, in which case you'll auto-follow the group.

Great, thanks!

Would anyone be able to follow me when I climb? Probably not, just figured I'd double-check.

Nope. Just you.
