Angus was about to move Ok, ok Falko not touching anything. Got it he says freezing in his tracks letting those with the required skill deal with the "trap"
"A tomb raider... dressed as a mummy? Are you sure?" Cretien asks, quizzically. He doesn't touch anything, so as not to spoil the man's plan.
Falko
open as a move action, you can also tell that there is an animated mummy within, the other option would be to crouch and walk past.
Despite Falko's erratic behavior, Asher does his best to heed his warnings. When his turn comes, he crawls low under whatever obstacle Falko had demonstrated.
Cretien, bristling at the young man's tone, retorts, "Yes, well they didnt bloody well mummify it while it was on the blade! That would suggest that, after the mummification process that it decided to take a bit of a stroll and wound up transfixed."
You continue moving forward for what seems like 200 feet but everything seems to be completely confusing. Up ahead you see a pillar connected to the wall just before the tunnel makes a 90 degree turn to the left.
Johnathan remains in the back with Asher, letting Angus and Falko go first.
Asher follows in the rear, ready for trouble and muttering something about not trusting "those bandaged a+%$~@@s." as he tries to keep his attention behind them.

of seven concentric rings surrounding a central white stone that marks
two spots, one just before and one just after each pillar. You also notice a 10-ft.
pole leans against the wall beside the symbol, a convenient 10 ft. from
the pillar. All but the last foot of the staff is blackened by fire. On the
ground beneath the symbol sit several torches, oil, flint, and steel.

fire, which is closest to the sun.
Falko says, "This is all crazy there is so many things out to get us we should go back" acting hysterically.
Asher begins to get annoyed. "Son!" he half-barks at Falko. "Out there, there are a million things that HAVE been getting at us, or need I remind you of the spiders and mosquitoes?! Not a single thing has harmed us in here, keep your wits up!" He points back the way they came to emphasis 'out there' before shaking a finger at the young man.
"Blast it, I need a smoke. Did you dry out my cigarettes as well, Constable?" he directs this last to Johnathan.
Johnathan keeps his eyes forward, and says softly, "No...but I can, whatever helps you focus. The hurting starts soon."
Falko replies, "Can you not notice the fire trap in this room?!???"
Falko after having a bit of sense talked into him tries to see if he can disarm it.
Disable Device fail
A pillar of flame shoots out at Falko Reflex DC 14
He springs the trap and nimble is able to avoid most of the fire and then says, "Hurry, I think it will reset soon!!!"
Nodding quickly, "Fire, yes, Jiese, the plane of
fire, closest to the sun. Falko be caref--" He shields his eyes from the blast, then runs across as Falko suggests.
Assuming the party in front of him moves after Falko calls out his plan, Asher will hurry to pass the trap and hope that is hasn't reset by the time it gets to him.
Cretien hurries across the trap as the others do.
The group of you hurry through that area and you notice that the tunnel splits into two different passages one to the right and the other straight ahead.
"Straight," Johnathan says without hesitation.
You follow Johnathan's instruction and continue straight.

of seven concentric rings surrounding a central white stone decorates the floor up at three points near the edges of the trap A dot lies on the fifth ring from the interior.
Falko and Angus
shards of rock lying scattered all over the floor, as if a small boulder was
crushed to pieces.
Hold up for a second, you see over there those tiny shards of rock lying scattered all over the floor, as if a small boulder was crushed to pieces ? what do you make of that ?
"Hrmm... A trap of some sort? Think we can trigger it with something and hurry past like the last time?" Asher looks around them to see if there is any heavy stone debris that could be rolled through the area.
Falk nod his head and then tries to do it
Disable Device
Falko looks at the trap understands it fairly quickly and then is able to disarm it through magical means and Putting a large boulder in a particular spot.
Your group continues forward until you come into the next room.
Aberrations like what you witnessed at the arms fair have claimed this room as their home. Two fleshy orbs covered with dozens of eyes float a few feet above the ground. Other creatures crawl along the walls and ceiling like massive spiders, except they have only four legs, and long barbed tongues protrude from their mouths. Their forms all waver from solid to translucent.
Round 1
Angus will pull free his weapon and will attack the closest fleshy orb fighting defensivly
Current AC 26
Asher looks into the room and sees the aberrations. He narrows his eyes and spits onto the ground. "Oh, here we go then." he mutters.
Angus charges in and with a final look to the rear of the party, Asher swings his black musket 'Darling' around and moves up (30 feet away) to fire at one of the smaller creatures not engaged with Angus.
"Now the hurting starts..." Johnathan follows Asher's aim, firing at the same target.
He touches Asher's shoulder, imparting a skyseer vision.
Stepping up to the front-most part of the tunnel without entering the room, Cretien deploys his turret and draws what looks like an overly-mechanized heavy steel shield. As the turret makes ready and takes a shot, Cretien jams the shield into the ground, three powerful spikes extending downward to anchor it. Similarly to the turret's deployment, the device attached to the shield springs into action, folding out additional plates to increase defensive coverage and crenelating itself. Cretien cozies up to the device, placing his rifle in the makeshift battlement and surveying the battlefield below.
Angus' attack misses the target. Will save DC 16 pass
Asher's attack hits the creature but it seems to do less damage than you would expect.
Johnathan's attack looks like it should have hit the creature but the lead ball just hits the wall behind it.

Chretien's Turret hits the enemy on Angus and Falko and does less damage than would be expected.

If he's capable after the failed will save, he'll cast Mirror Image.
"Dufrene!" Asher barks as the vines grow between the engineer and the rest of the party.
He takes a five foot step back so he can fire safely (assuming there is room to with bugs all around us [if there is nowhere I can shift to where I can fire without provoking, I'll draw my rapier]), reloads his gun (or not if he drew his rapier), and wait for the most injured one in the group to waver toward its more solid state before attacking.

Looking at the vines, Asher tries to see if they look cutable, if not by him then maybe through Angus's swordsmanship.
