Ellie will be equipped with a few different items. Some of it seem both familiar and mundane, until you remember what time period it is: modern climbing gear, with some flare.
This includes an adjustable leather harness with in-built spools of super-tough wire, and a separate spool that can be attached to the harness as well. A belay device to assist in smooth rappelling downwards, a few different kinds of hooks and anchors, and a pair of ascenders to assist in climbing up. If she's not personally familiar with this kind of equipment, Tony will do a demo.
Slightly more special, however, are also a pair of gloves. These are made of some kind of hide, with coppery wires run through the stitches to ensure an adjustable and close fit, with wider copper rings that fit around the wrists. The palms and fingers are lined with an odd sort of velcro-like yet organic material. By clicking the wrists together, small runic inscriptions flare up, activating some kind of affect that makes the palm-lining of the gloves stick to flat surfaces. They peel off smoothly, and then hold fast when weight is applied. There are also matching boots with this same affect on the soles.
I rolled a 1 on your oops potential. At one heart stopping moment, one of the gloves will cease to be activated, leaving her stranded. However, Ellie didn't get up too high, and she can either bang the glove against the wall until it reactivates, or parkour back down safely.
As a reminder, Ellie won't be able to keep these items beyond around mid to late October, as they will require AC points to purchase (but that will be an option if you're keen!). At that stage, Tony will come check in around how field testing is going, if Ellie doesn't approach first.
