How big, what direction, and are they huminoid?
There are some tracks here.
Deorin will point out the tracks for Urgthak, and the others.

"Oh I didn't see them...Must have been the pretty rocks" as Urgthak looks at them to see if he can tell what made them

knowledge (Dungeon, Nature, arcana) or survival to get a chance to identify the tracks.

Knowledge Dung:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22
Survival:1d20 + 6 ⇒ (9) + 6 = 15
Hmm what could these tracks be?

Survival (untrained): 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (11) + 1 = 12

"Beware these are the tracks of an rare foul creature known as a Nothic. Their gaze can cause your limbs to rot off." Says Urgthak trying to war his companions of the aberration

OK,which way did it go, so as to attempt to avoid it?

The tracks go both East and West?

Urgthak will continue slowly down steps

no more stairs @ T junction

I say we go right.
east

"Right it is..." says Urgthak as he continues to move carefully looking for traps and any more signs of the Nothic

You go East for about 20ft before going north 40ft

2d20 ⇒ (7, 10) = 17

and it then goes west, and it looks like, you went half way around a very large square underground piller.

2d20 ⇒ (14, 4) = 18

"hmm we may just be going in circles....maybe the pillar or a wall some place has a secret door." As he looks around more carefully. Attempting to see if he can ascertain if the footprints lead off the path

I suppose a perception and survival maybe for tracking
Perception:1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20
Survival:1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9

The tracks go north of your current location, down a hall 50 to a Cross junction with large double doors on the northern passage of this junction.

A double door is a jar.

"Looks like it went in that room."

Urgthak readies his spear, in case its close "be ready it could be close" as he looks through the opening at the door.

I am having some pretty massive connectivity issues (took half an hour to get this page to load without my internet cutting out) so I am going to have to withdraw until I can get it fixed.

I hope things get fixed and return,

Should I recruit some more players?

that might be good...seeming I maybe only one left (tho Hopefully Deorin comes back soon)

I made the recruit thread.

Should I just wait or are you OK just dragging along the NPCs

I'll make it your call.

It seems to be working again, though I am all for new recruits
Deorin will draw her scimitar, and whisper to Urgthak, "You first."

At the urging of his fellow party members Urgthak peers through the opening of the doorway, If it looks safe he will open the door fully and go through spear in hand.

perception checks please.

Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (15) + 6 = 21

I think there are too many pretty rocks for Urgthak to look at

Deorin you hear footsteps coming from behind

Calen swore as he tripped a crack in the floor in an uncharacteristic moment of clumsiness and tumbled to the ground in front of thing woman with flaming red hair. The muscular man blanched at her pale skin and multi-colored eyes, and gracefully rose to his feet in front of her. "Well then. Sorry to interrupt." Calen shrugged. "I don't suppose you could use a hand, with, well... What ever you're doing... He stated as much as questioned.

Alkaid:
with a surprised look on her face
"Oh you scared me."

Winery:
"Me as well."

@Calen
you sense they were focused on something else, and where in more of an exploring mood.
You also spot that a path of stone looks aged than normal, odd considering that all the stone in granite and a well made stone path.

As for the PCs you notice that all have human blood, but are not entirely human. And all the women have red hair, and two have similar blood lines.
You can tell that ones a priestess, two are bards, and the last one is a heavy weapon using warrior.

Urgthak looks up from the pretty rocks he has been looking at and sees Calen, "Who are you?" suspiciously.
Seeing Calen not acting aggressive "I'm Urgthak, were search these ruins looking for clues about here father." pointing at Deorin. "Oh and if we can find the goblin leader...we'd like to kill him too..."

Deorin turns to the newcomer, gestures to the door, and quietly says, "We can talk later. There is probably something called a Nothic in there and I would prefer we know about it before it knows about us."

Knowledge (dungeonering) 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13
A Nothic? Calen tried to recall if he'd ever heard anything about them in his studies. He shrugged, and drew the exotic weapon with a blade on one hand, and held the chain in the other. "Perhaps I could take point. I've got keen eyes, and I might move a little softer than you in all that armor." Calen doesn't bother to conceal his eagerness.

Deorin smiles at him, and motions to the door.

Calen smiled back and slid up to the door, keeping his back close to wall, and peered through the door.
Perception1d20 + 13 ⇒ (19) + 13 = 32

"I got keen eyes too..you wouldn't imagine how many nice looking stones and pebbles I have found in this area." says Urgthak
"If you want to try and look being stealthy be my guest...by the way you know anyhting about traps? out of curiosity..."

"Well, I'm not a fair hand with mechanics, but I'm usually fast enough to get out of the way."spoke the man in soft tones as he poked his head around the door.

perception check please

I rolled one four posts up, along with awkwardly stating door one to many times in the same sentence.

Perception: 120 + 6 = 126

oops: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (7) + 6 = 13

perception1d20 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 2 = 20
