This is the moment you've been waiting for. You and your companions have just been teleported into the first dungeon for the premier episode of Dungeon Flag.
Your new patrons and their customers are watching with much anticipation to see who will survive, and who will thrive in the game of Dungeon Flag!
You find yourselves in what is clearly a constructed place. The walls of the arena are seemingly cut from one giant stone block. The floors, walls, and ceiling are all perfectly smooth, showing no joints. The ceilings are fifteen feet tall.
The initial room you find yourselves in is a 50'x90' rectangle, with a brightly glowing orb set into the ceiling for light. There is an open stone archway on the eastern end of the room.
The darkly-clad ratfolk immediately sets about increasing his survivability and casts a spell . "Is everyone ready? Let's get this done!"
I agree. Take point, ill be the rear guard as he gets ready. That flag and the prize will be theirs
Casts Mage Armor as well. I guess I am in the middle.
I will be 15 feet behind Zinkov.
Skivven nods to his teammates and begins cautiously making his way into the dungeon.
The next chamber is long and rectangular, of the same construction as the first room. It lacks a light in the ceiling, but that makes no difference for this team. Skivven leads the way across the chamber and about halfway down comes into sight of another doorway.
I would like to roll perception and stealth when I enter each room.
Skivven looks back at his teammates and opens-and-closes his hands a few times before continuing his cautious advance.
William walks cautiously forward following along.
Skivven moves up to the door and examines it, checking for traps. He finds it untrapped and unlocked, and opens it. This vast chamber is dark, and he cannot see all the way across it. The ratman leads his companions down along the eastern wall of the chamber until he comes into sight of an opening in the south wall, and a stout wooden door in the southwest corner of the room.
Skivven carefully moves closer to the opening and examines it.
Skivven takes a brief scouting mission around the chamber and returns to report a portcullis to the south, and three potential doors on the western wall of the room.
"Four possibilities... Shall we put it to a vote? "
Walks to the middle of the room and looks around. Then walks to the portcullis and casts detect magic.
Checking for magic guys.
William sees no magical auras when looking through the portcullis, or methods of opening it (other than brute strength) for that matter.
Then what? Lets just force the thing open
Let me check the other potential doors.
William casts detect magic toward the remaining three doors.
William finds no magic on any of the other doors either. Returning to Zinkov's suggestion, he tries to lift the portcullis.
It takes him a second, but the dhampir manages to lift the portcullis up.
Inside this lit chamber the trio find another portcullis with a further chamber beyond.
Well now what?
Detect magic on the new portcullis.
"See anything there in front?" he whispers carefully
The new portcullis is not magical.
Zinkov moves forward after Skivven reports an empty chamber ahead. He tries to lift the portcullis.
He cannot get it on his first try.

On his second try, Zinkov gets them through the portcullis. There is only one possible exit from the chamber, so Skivven goes to examine it.
He finds no traps on the door, so attempts to open it. Apparently, he wasn't quite observant enough.
/2 = 4 negative energy damage
A black shock of energy leaps out of the door frame, into Skivven. The door frame glows briefly with shadowy sigils. Holding the door open behind him, Skivven peeks into the room to reveal a dead end chamber.
Checking the room for any hidden doors.
I will also use a charge of my wand of infernal healing on Skivven.
" Should have been me" he grins
William sees no hidden doors in the chamber.
Well nothing in here. Lets back track two rooms and check out those other doors
William doesn't see anything wrong with the doors, but the top door appears to be locked.
The other two-thirds of the team don't notice anything amiss with the locked door either.
I will attempt to open the middle door.
Skivven unlocks the door with little issue.
It's as William is going to open the door that Skivven hears it. Coming from behind the north-eastern corner door he hears two different voices say a single arcane sounding word each.
Zinkov readies his weapon. He doesnt like magic from a source he doesnt know

Skivven mutters in Ratfolk before vanishing from sight.
With a few mutters and a great glow a shield of force emerges in front of William.
Standard: Cast Shield
"Lets move forward slowly" he whispers to the group

William nods at Zinkov and slowly moves along 10 feet behind him.
Skivven whispers, "Zinkov, open the door." He'll then move to where he can see inside the room.
