How to run The Rendclaw
VoiceTerse, physical, wondering.
WantsA wall worth climbing. To trust the geometry. To know if there was ever a ladder.
Do this nowThe Rendclaw goes up a sheer surface no one else can climb; runs the rooflines, upside down beneath the eaves.
“WHO MOVED THE— … Was there a—?”
Woke one spring with claws he never requested and a climbing style older than any wall worth climbing. His vertical movement and his memory-slip during the fold are key chase beats.
Fights best beside — The Wayblade — the two who move where the party can't follow.
