My friend got tossed to the cat room from befallen. At the
top of the stairs to level 3, there's a rock. If you stand on
the rock, you can get stuck there (can't jump off, can't move,
etc). He tried ducking, jumping, turning, all sorts of
things, none of which worked. Eventually he hit upon some
combination of movements which popped him through the roof
(this happens with the Kelethin lifts too), and he found
himself in the cat room. We were all around level 13 at the
time and there were several player corpses in there, so he was
too scared to move. Turns out Verant added a zone to West
Commonlands just down the hall from the cat room, so he wasted
two nights of play waiting for a GM when all he had to do was
move a few paces away.
