"Oh my," Marak says upon seeing what is in the room, attempting to move in such a way as to block Ali's view. He's pragmatic enough to recognize that this will probably do nothing more than arouse her curiousity...
He mutters another invocation to Nethys to open his eyes, and scans the room quickly for any item blessed with the touch of magic.

Ali's curiosity is indeed aroused and, easily slipping by the protective Cleric, she enters the room. Although the small wolf growls at the hides on the floor, it is no worse than what she has already seen and she simply avoids them.
Then, noticing Kallie's reaction, Ali-wolf looks around for whatever could have made her friend react like that. Noticing the Sorceress's gaze riveted to the head-board, Ali flows to Gnome form and takes a closer look. She clearly sees the interesting pictures of various creatures mating, but is still confused about what could possibly be disturbing her friend so much. She then notices that most of her other friends also seem to be reacting to the headboard strangely, either by avoiding it with their eyes completely or staring at it avidly.
Giving up on the matter and shaking her head, Ali says "You two-legs be funny strange, yes yes."
She then flows back to wolf form, sniffing and poking around the room to she if she finds anything of interest. Perception: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (3) + 6 = 9 +2 to smell and touch.

Romon looks over the room. A bedroom. Probably the cheif's. He is pleased. People keep valuables in their bedroom.
He looks at the bed. Nice piece of work that. Reminds me of the one mother had at Madame Tassard's. He pauses nostagically for a breath.
"Wait half a moment, please. This must be the cheif's bed chamber. He may have hidden something important here." ALthough he holds out the most hope for gold under the bed, Romon goes to the desk first and begins his search there.
2 perception rolls. The first for traps, the second for things hidden. Moving quickly because he doesn't want to keep everyone waiting. 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (10) + 7 = 17
1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12

Romon takes special note of the new key and slips it onto the chief's keyring. He looks curiously at Lamashtu's symbol. Tricky swag, religious items. Too often they come with unpleasant extras. Without touching it he asks Marak or Kallie, "Is it clean? Any curses?"
Appraise the symbol. What's it made of? 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
That's like my third nat 1 in three days. It's too discouraging.
"It certainly does suggest that someone more refined than a goblin chieftan lives here. Perhaps the 'white witch' that was mentioned earlier? But I have no magic suited for leaving behind as a trap. The inscription of such runes is beyond my ability."
Romon would point out that, unless its Magical, then the gems and silver are just that, gems and silver..easily disposed off with a little work without losing too much of the pieces value
Romon clears his throat. "That's a nice piece for sure. Since there's no curse nor magic laid on it, we should take it with us. We can pry the gems loose and melt the silver down. It won't be any good to Lamashtu, and will do good for us."
IF MARAK doesn't:
Spoiler:
Romon looks at the jeweled symbol with regret. A pretty piece, but it doesn't pay to mix with goods marked by the gods. "Muchorak's right. We should destroy it or leave it." Romon steps back. Safer if someone else does it.
you move swiftly back past the 'meat smell' room and into the tower then head west stopping outside the door in the corridor leading to the trophy room Romon listens intently
"Goblins in here.." he hisses "and in numbers..We can hold them at the door I think, they won't be able to attack us en masse then."

As Aliwolf hears and smells the great number of goblins in the room ahead, she turns her canine head to look for a moment at her friends. Seeming to come to a decision, she quickly flows to Gnome form saying
"Ali think she help friends kill'um good yucky goblins, yes yes"
The small Wild Druid then takes a few moments to cast a few helpful spells on herself and her friends.
Wellard, Ali's Barkskin lasts for 30min at present. How much time would have gone by since we entered the maze? If she has a good while left on the spell cast on herself, she'll cast the two she has left on Muchorak and Roman. If hers is running out soon, she cast the last two on herself and Muchorak (no offense Romon or anyone else! Just going by who's most melee. And Inikai seems to be doing the lightning thing now, yes? : ). She will then also cast Magic Fang on herself and then flow back to wolf form.
Muchorak stretches his arms, weapons still in hand, and nods to Romon. "I'm ready when everyone else is." Muchorak then moves to a position to keep the goblins in the doorway.
Romon gives the door a very quick sweep for traps or alarms. Then nods to the others as if to ask, "Ready?" He opens the door and moves clear.
Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
If the door pulls open Romon will step back with it so that he's effectively in the second row. If the door pushes open Romon will go through the door and step to the door's side so that he's out of the way of Muchorak and Ali as they no doubt burst into the room beyond and his body blocks the door from being shut.
Inikai(Male Human (Chelexian and Shoanti mix) Binder 7 (favored class))
Inikai readies himself to form a second rank behind Muchorak and Ali. He looks back to Kaliciel to make sure she is near enough to Marak to be protected. Then he whispers to the others that he is ready.

Didn't get answers form you regarding the time yet Wellard, so not sure who all got the benefits of Ali's Barkskin spells?
(surprise round)
Snarling in fury at the sight of her hated foes, the small grey wolf launches like at arrow at the throat of one of the goblins.
Attack:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (13) + 9 = 22
Damage: 1d4 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8
As Ali and Muchorak zip past, Romon congratulates himself on getting out of their way. Then he realizes there's no weapon in his hand. Green dragon s*+*! He grabs quickly for the first weapon he can reach and comes up with the enchanted dagger.
Figure between opening the door, moving aside, and weapon draw I'm out of actions. I'll attack next turn. Didn't I already make a note to self to draw a weapon before opening doors?
Inakai fries one goblin as it stares open mouthed at the party then Ali and Muchorak take two down with swiftness...Kallie fells a fourth with a pair of Magic Missiles.

on her turn
Blood dripping from her fangs, the savagely growling wolf uses her speed and mobility to flank one of the remaining goblins, again tearing into it's flesh with her teeth.
Attack:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (17) + 9 = 26 (not including flank)
Damage:1d4 + 4 ⇒ (2) + 4 = 6
Marak's morningstar hurls itself from his hand to attempt to bludgeon of of the goblins, as he is not willing to expend any further magic on this group of goblins. His target falls before the morningstar even crosses the room, however, and the weapon swings only at empty air, before returning to his hand.
Romon whips his dagger overhand at the goblin closest to him. The knife has barely cleared his hand before another dagger is drawn and in his left hand.
Marak examines his morningstar dubiously and shakes it as if it were somehow broken. Shrugging, he mutters a few words of magic and casts a gaze over the room, to see if, for some inexplicable reason, something in this room carries a touch of magic.
In the spirit of Thanksgiving Inikai deep-fries another goblin.
I hope its not frozen.
Romon stares at the dagger which has returned to his throwing hand in satisfaction. This is very nice. A quick glance is enough for him to dismiss the rest of the room. Low-level thugs. The chief will keep them, but'll take anything good they've got for himself. Not even worth a search through their filthy bedding.
"Let's keep moving, " he says. He doesn't notice how quickly he's become inurred to the goblins deaths.
On to the next door? Wellard, just to double check: Do the stairs in area C15 only go up to the tower?
