yes
Check the next doors for traps
herp
They do not look trapped to you..
The doors open to reveal..
Statues of female figures clothed in spidery robes and masks stand with arms outstretched at either end of this wide, short hall. The tiled floor is a detailed mosaic starscape.
Perc Check Hemket, unless you plan on taking more time..
The floor panel before the opposite doors is trapped.. Alot of rocks will fall on your head if its stepped on.
"There's a trap in the antechamber. Let me go take care of it. Stay back."
derp
Calla holds Hemket's beer detects magic on the two statues, scared with everything now.
Hemket successfully disables the trap..
The doors open into a hallway that goes left and right..
Hemket will head to the right and see what is there.
"Hey Hemket, could you do me a favor?" She gives you a mean look, and says what does she want. "After everyone has passed, could you reset that please? We don't want to have surprises, do we?"
Rounding the corner you see a pair of double doors along the east wall and a single door in the interior, eastern wall..
"That's not a bad idea. "
and he will head back and reset the trap so nobody gets to sneak up behind.
"Thanks! Let's try those double doors first!"
Calla will also get a Heavy Crossbow, load it and get ready to rumble!
And the trap be reset..
The doors are not locked or trapped.. Opening them you see..
Sarcophagi and mummified creatures of every shape and size fill this chamber. Detailed murals and carvings on the walls depict a wide variety of beasts from the surrounding area and far beyond.
Mummified remains of hundreds of creatures—draft animals, quarry from hunts, and beloved pets, especially cats fill this room.
"That's a rather odd collection. "
to see if any look to be animate
"I do not like this, at all!! Marius, how do we prevent this things from getting up?"
All is quiet and still in the mummified animal room..
Calla you think if any of these were undead you would not be able to prevent them from rising. The fact that there's no movement suggests these are all just simply mummies and not undead ones..
Hemket will head back and check out the door on the other wall of the hallway for traps.
take 10
Perception 24
The door is not trapped nor locked.. Opening it you see.
Dark-stained wooden cabinets and shelves and a prominent mahogany table fill much of this massive library.
The documents stored here seem to be death records of the populace of Wati going back several thousand years.
In the large desk you find a secret compartment that contains a Scroll of Death Ward(CL 7th). Calla thinks the mahogany desk could be quite valuable if you were able to get it's 400lbs ass out of here..
Go back out to the corridor around to the north.
You see a set of stairs that descend further into the earth and straight ahead is another 2 sets of double doors and a single to the interior..
Going to head further around the corridor. I want to check any other doors towards the inside rooms. (left side as I go around)
take 10 again for 24 on traps on the door.
"On our way out, if you like, we can take the desk. I don't think it would be too hard for me to carry. Might need to enlarge again to do it, but probably worth it." Logos comments, following along.
"Sure, we can certainly manage to do it, if we are alive by then."
Calla detects magic on the mummies room and on the one with the records, as usual.
If so..
The door isn't locked or trapped and upon opening it you see.
Tidy wooden cabinets with brass knobs and labels fill this musty library to the brim. A large cedar table stands against the south wall.
There is also a loud screaming coming from behind the desk, as you move to inspect a trio of armored skeletal warriors rise and mave to confront you, at the same time what appears to be a caged head comes floating into view, screaming along the way.
Looks like Baddies first, then PC's. Everyone give me a Will save DC 16. If you fail everytime you roll a d20 w/in 30' of the floating head you must roll twice and take the lower.
The floating head procede's to cast a spell..
Logos give me a Will save DC 18 or go blind.. Remember if you fail the first Will save you must roll twice and take the lower.
The 3 skeletons attack, 2 on hemtket, 1 on Logos..
1 hit/1 potential crit
miss even if your blinded..
does so..
PC's are up! Remember your will saves.
"Dammit, that hurt!"
and he will tumble back to behind Logos.
He will then study the head as his other move action.
(30/57 Hp)
Calla gets into action, but first tries to identify what does the little flying pugwampi can do.

Aiming at the southern armored skeleton, she releases a power spell, commanding the creature to obey her!
"That flying creature is using you! Fight it!!"
makes it on the die..
You that it is a unique undead creature that has oracle abilities.
Logos screams back at the floating head, as loud as he can!
Logos attacks the skeleton next to him.
Marius also casts command undead to try and take control of the flying head.
Seeing the injury to one of Hemket's more tender areas, Hadjii will cast his prepared CLW on the archer:
The large wolf whines a bit, wanting to get in on the action -- but not seeing any room to get in there!
Ha..
Marius gains a small amount of control over the Floating Head.. What do you command it to do?
The one attack that would have hit from Logos misses because he's blind..
Hadjii and Sheeba are up!
"If you can fix Logos's sight. If you cannot just guard me from these skeleton warriors."
actually now that I have better access to the map than my iPhone, I can see there is a way for the wolf to squeeze through the door and move through the squares occupied by the shooter and the rager -- taking up position behind Logos. She's also using acrobatics to avoid AoOs:
so it's two movement points per square most of the way -- a double-move to get where I moved her to on the map.
Thats fine just waiting on Marius's revised command.
"Go into the room behind me and wait there for me to return."
With a toothy smile the head flys past you all and out into the hallway, it moves down a bit a waits at the double doors.
The skeleton's attack again, 2 on Logos, 1 on Marius.
1 hit
nope
PC's are up!
Knowing how the spell works, Calla quickly warn the others. "Don't attack the head!"
The arcanist draws a wand and summons a weak spell it has: "Grease!"
Start shooting. Easternmost target first.
deadly aim, rapid shot for 3, blunt arrows
miss
shift targets moving west as needed
Both fall..
It takes all 3 arrows due to DR but Hemket takes out the eatern skeleton..
Logos, Marius, and Hadjii are up!
You all have 2 prone skeletons left.. And can still attack the head if you wish :0..
Hadjii follows the path Sheeba used last round, moving through Marius' and Logos' hexes -- and trying to tumble past that prone zombie next to Marius:
(nope -- provokes AoO)
as part of the movement, he pulls his wand o' CMW, and applies a charge to Logos:
big doggie steps up, tries bite prone zombie:
if AC 18 somehow hits, then points of damage
Logos growls at Calla, or rather in her direction, when told not to attack the head. Likely because he can't see and isn't sure why she wants him to not hit the skeletons in the head. Ignoring her instructions, he blindly lashes out at the skeleton that attacked him.
However, he misses badly with both attacks.
Maruis will simply activate his protection aura so that his allies get a +2 bonus to AC for the next 3 rounds.
Sheeba kills the one skeleton, Logos can't seem to hit the other..
The prone skele takes his AoO..
hits
The skeleton tries to slice Logos again..
miss..
Yall are up!
Calla gets a little mad with the unspoken thoughts of their barbarian friend. "Didn't you hear? I said ARCH-MAGE!"
She summons some of her Mythic power and channels it into the barbarian, not quite to neutralize the enemy spell, but to counter it in a weird way. A way only magicians would think of. "Where two eyes fail, countless will prevail!"
