"Secret door looks good, groar!" says the half-orc turning back to the elementals "What was that? I understood nothing"
Once at the other side the half-orc helps checking the new environment.

You continue through first and antichamber, then into a much larger chamber. Three fifteen-foot-diameter platforms lie in this room, each rising three feet high. In the center of each platform, a globesha ped container of murky liquid sits in the embrace of an octopus-shaped brass cradle. Each globe is about two feet across-the two westernmost globes are intact, and a dark, indistinct mass floats in the center of each. The eastern globe has been shattered, and a large stain has spread out around it on the floor. Along the wall near the eastern door sits a tiny wooden cabinet with a message scribbled on its fro nt. A similar one sits beside the western door. As you move into the room, the mass in the shattered jar shudders to life in and begins clawing toward you!
"What kind of ill creature is that? Groar!!!!" shouts Shriek as he moves forward to slice the thing!

Round 1, FIGHT!
Samuel Soulkeeper: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (19) + 2 = 21 CRIT!

Solvi: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8
Yasmin: 1d20 + 5 ⇒ (1) + 5 = 6
Samuel shoots forward quickly and cuts deep into the brain.
The brain responds by peering deep into Samuel! [Pic]will save! DC 19[/ooc]
Orell ends the psychic assault by killing the brain with arrows.
The room goes back to quiet as the thing falls in a heap. What do you want to do now?
Just after burrowing his sword into the brain, Shriek ends victim of some ill psionic effect!
"Brrrl! Brrrl!" the half-orc looks around for...
"What was that?" Yasmin asks and then takes a good look through the room

After the creature is killed, you carefully examine the room. The message on the cabinet by the eastern door reads, in Common: "Herein lies safety-but know that to rely on such crutches is to fall from the Path." A second, similar cabinet sits near the western door, but its message reads "Return what is no longer needed here, lest it weigh you down." Nothing remains in the eastern cabinet but a few tiny silk cushions. In the western cabinet, three beads of force sit on another set of cushions.
You see the items with you magic vision as well as searching the room.
You continue being observent along the path. You see an obvious hidden door from your side, find it safe, ad open it. Sixteen five-foot-wide alcoves, each containing the crumpled remains of a sparring dummy, fill this room.
You continue back the way you came. Entering the other door, you
find A tiled pool dominates this chamber, which has a fifteen-foot-
high barrel-vault ceiling. The waters are clear and three feet deep. Three marble platforms featuring the same mosaic design found in the monastery above rise along the pool's center, protruding six inches above the water's surface. Four octagonal, domed alcoves in the corners each hold a marble pillar. Near the southeast alcove, a large hole has been dug in the wall.

Finn Lochlan: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3
Solvi and the monsters get a surprise round. I can tell you one will move and one will engage.
I think that I just totally screwed up the map (I was trying to cut and paste Bissi from another map and I think I moved/deleted some stuff).
Sorry :-(.
At any rate, once you restore things, Bissi would either charge the closest enemy (if possible) or just move up to it.
If he can charge,

I'm sorry for my lack of response recently.
Life has gotten very hectic and I just don't seem to be able to find the time to post right now.
I don't want to be one of those people who just silently vanish. Since I am unable (despite my best efforts) to find the time to post it is best if I officially resign from this game.
Feel very free to just bot me if that is easier than finding a replacement character.
I'll cut and paste the entirity of my character sheet below

Solvi will also shoot the same wight. Point blank but does NOT have precise shot
for
Solvi was born as a serf in the lands of the Linnorn Kings, a role in life that he found dull and boring.
When he was 10 the Umbra Carnival and, seeing his chance, Solvi ran away to join the circus. There, his animal handling skills were sufficient to win him a place, At first mucking out the stalls, eventually graduating to training new animals.
While there, he came to worship Sinashakti, Empyreal Lord of Journeys, Joy and Messengers
Followers of Sinashakti typically forswear permanent residence and are usually bards and traveling merchants. They are motivated by the joy of travel and exploration rather than by wealth.
A typical greeting to the faithful is, “May the light carry you far today.”]
He would probably have been content to remain there had it not been for the events chronicled in Murder's Mark. The Pathfinders seemed like a worthy organization to join, one that would let him wander and explore the world to an even greater extent than the Carnival had.
He left the Circus with Bissi, a young leopard cub that he raised and trained in the few off moments as he trained to become a Pathfinder.
[Spoiler=Personality]
He only recently graduated and has done only a small amount of adventuring so far.
He views Bissi as a partner and friend, not as either a pet nor as property. But he is fully aware that he is an animal and not a person.
He is a fairly unatractive person, at least partly due to the fact that he takes little care of himself and has no difficulty if there are some animal aromas hanging around him
He is a happy person, likes to spread joy around her.
He travels with a considerable number of animals that are both his friends and that he is training. In game terms, of course, only one of these actually "exists".

Finn Lochlan: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 2 = 3 Hex!
Orell steadies his aim on the down creature. The monster attempts to cast a spell.
And the spell fails to occure
Yasmin hits hard, but then the creature responds in kind
Samuel attempts to attack as well and hits hard!
Finn then curses the creature on the ground.
Again the creature shakes off the mental assault. It is not doing as well against the physical however.
Round 3, FIGHT!
Shriek helps inspecting the large pool and the room in general.
"There is some tunnel to the east! Let's go there! Brrroarrrr!" the half-orc moves sword ready towards the ruined corridor.
"Are we sure that tunnel won't lead us to the dragon? The druid said it would be best to take out it's allies first. They are in the monastery and we did not yet investigate the upper levels."
"Groar! I am good to check more the monastery if you know where to find them Yasmin!" shrieks the half-orc.

Eight pillars pai nted with faded quotations and prayers from lrori's teach ings su pport the ceiling of this large chamber. A statue of a man with a long braid sta nds to the south.
Looking over the room you find a small bone scroll case. In the case you find a scroll.
There is nothing else of value here. Heading up stairs leads to the second floor of the monetary f16
Or You could ascend the stairs in f14 to the bell tower gallery.
Which way up?
"Mmmm... interesting..." says Shriek while scanning the scroll with detect magic "This is a marionette possession scroll"
The half-orc hands it to Finn "Perhaps you should have it Finn? You sure can make good use of it. Grrroar!"
Shriek checks the corridor to the west while the group checks north and elsewhere.
"Let's clear West and North before heading into the Eastern alleys"
"Indeed. West first!"

Heading up the circular stairs to f16
The ceiling of this twenty-foot-high room is painted with a
scene of scholars at study. A polished wooden statue of a
woman sitting in the lotus position, eyes closed in meditation,
hangs from the center of the ceiling on several lengths of thin
twine so that it seems to levitate.
As you enter, a pile of books int he room heaves, and stepping out of the pile is a mammoth sized creature. It looks like the winged monsters you fought many times before, but this one is the size of a horse!
Yasmin circles around the beast, trying to avoid his long limbs. Once she is at his back she strikes.
Shriek starts his raging song, then moves to the edge of the creature's reach so he can just step later to attack.
