I've been toying with the idea of multiple actions and turns in one post, just to keep things going.... but this is a special situaton. Much can change in the course of one round. What if something happened to invalidate or otherwise negate Tashi's actions for the second round?<br/><br/>I would say grabbing someone and picking up their body is a move action (I consider it 'Manipulating an item') And moving is otherwise unchanged except for encumberance. So if you were adjacent to a body at the start of your turn... you could pick up the body and carry it with you someplace.<br/><br/>However, given that Tashi is not adjacent to the Guard, that makes things difficult. You cannot five-foot step in the same round you move. And unless you have the ability to move before and after any other action... Tashi can't pick her body up and move her to safety. At most... he'd have to spend a turn moving forward 5 feet and picking up her body... Then in the 2nd turn he could move<em>out</em>of the smoke cloud.
