"I still feel we should get at least one of our other orders done first. If the crypt goes sideways it's unlikely they would leave us finish the rest..." she whispers to the group.

Valeros shrugs. ”I’m a fighter, not a thinker; whatever the rest of you think best, I’ll follow along…”

"On the other hand, if we run afoul of Dakang, we will have larger problems. Perhaps it's best to visit the crypt before his arrival?"

"We got the meditation class and we already have permission to work on the library and we still need to draft a detailed plan of the garden’s layout additionally to the rubbings on the crypt... We are risking losing our chance to the library and the gardens just to get access to the crypt. It's a bad bet. If this Dakang doesn't want people to go in there, can we at least check the garden and ask what kind of 'immortal' he is first? I would hate to face someone's wrath without having an idea of what we are dealing with," Elena presses.

Agreed complete the certainties first. Then try for the possibilities. Is most logical approach.

Piotr looks at the group, a bit puzzled.
"The sermon is in a few hours. That should be something to not miss. That gives us time to head to the crypts beforehand and check out what's in there. We have to go through the garden to get to the crypt, which gives us a chance to study the garden as well."
The scenario pretty much gave us a big hint to go to the crypt. I think we should take the opportunity.

"Talking with Dakang is possible, however doing so before going to the crypts can possibly raise his suspicions and have its guarded off more so, or have us trailed, or something else, the rubbings shouldn't take too long to do, could get the rubbings while someone details, or works in the library start on the tasks and as one is finished go to another and get that done, and then all meet at the last one, while also attending the sermon. its not a certain set in stone means, but one possible way"
was suggesting the crypt cause I can sneak in with one or two, and get the rubbings done hopefully unnoticed, however thats the only reason

"Alright. The less people that try to sneak in, less chances to get detected. We can move to the garden to work on the map and maybe distract the people there to let Serata slip in to the crypt."

"No, Elena and Serata."
Piotr shakes his head.
"I think it would be best that we all go to the crypt together. The first thing I learned in Dungeoneering 101 is 'Never split the party.'
Miriya told us we have the chance to go now. I think it's best to go... now."
Piotr slinks down the hall towards the library, keeping alert for any temple staff that might be lingering in the other hallways. He waves his arm, gesturing for his companions to follow.
Rogue 5 | AC 24 T 18 FF 17| HP 43/43| F 4 R 11 W 1| Init 8/10DL| Perc 7 | Illumination points 2
Following Piotr serata nods, she stays quiet and moves quickly,
stealth: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (14) + 18 = 32
she moves her fingers moving as if counting something or keeping something ready as if it will be needed

"She said she would like to know what's there when we explore it. She didn't say we had to go now." she reminds him.
"You should let her be in the front and give her some leeway to sneak in. Your armor is a bit loud," she warns.
Elena will follow marching order and let Serata be at least 15ft ahead of her.

So we are going south around the library and around to the garden then zipping over to the crypt, correct?
Goe Lem tromps along bring up the rear of the group.

"Okay, everyone. We'll head south and around the library and into the garden. Then we'll zip over to the crypt. Sound good?"
Piotr whispers to his companions as the group slinks down the hallway.
Rogue 5 | AC 24 T 18 FF 17| HP 43/43| F 4 R 11 W 1| Init 8/10DL| Perc 7 | Illumination points 2
Nodding as she moves passed Piotr to head front, and keep an eye on the lightning as well
You do not see anybody on the way to the crypts.
A15. Statuary Hallway
Most of the everburning lanterns hanging in this hall are dark, but the dimness does not diminish the grandeur of this corridor.
Along the north wall stand several statues, each depicting an angel or other good outsider. Some are depicted in dramatic poses befitting a holy warrior.
Others have heads bowed in eternal contemplation and hands cupping glass spheres. The southern wall bears a large set of double doors, but these doors are boarded up.
Smaller doors stand at opposite ends of the hall. A few bits of stone and other debris litter the floor and a musty odor hangs in the air.
What do you do?
CG m Warpriest of Milani 6 | HP 50/50 | AC 18, t10, ff18 | F +7, R +2, W +7 (+2 & DR 5 neg energy) | Perc. +14 | Blessings 6/day | Stealth -2 | Init +2 | speed 20' | CMB +8, CMD 18 | Fervor 6/day (2d6) | Active Conditions: -- |
"Well. These doors are boarded up. There's a set of double doors leading to the garden that we just passed. Should we head through those? Actually, maybe we should inspect these statues first and make notes in our journal."
The double doors that are boarded up lead to the garden. The other door at the opposite side of the hallway is not boarded up!

Valeros heads towards the door that is not boarded up and checks it out…
Perception: 1d20 ⇒ 18
Male Oread Warpriest 4, HP:35/35, AC:19, Touch:11, Flat Footed:18, F:+6, R:+2, W:+7,+2vs Death, Init:+1, Perc:+10, Darkvision
Goe Lem mutters, Let the designated scout look for traps, magical or mundane. If nothing, can listen for others at the far door. If still nothing, we can all proceed.
Rogue 5 | AC 24 T 18 FF 17| HP 43/43| F 4 R 11 W 1| Init 8/10DL| Perc 7 | Illumination points 2
Serata will move to the accesibke door and inspect for traps, noises from the other side and if it is locked Perception: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16
Upon determing it is clear she will move to open the door and head in alomg the wall to her right quietly to scope it out stealth: 1d20 + 18 ⇒ (15) + 18 = 33

Elena will aid Serata on perception in case she missed anything.
Perception Aid: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (16) + 8 = 24 for a +4 (helpful).
Serata is looking around and with Elena's help is able to stop Valeros just in time before he steps too close to one of the angelic creatures!
It seems as if the large angel statue closest to the crypt entrance would swing its heavy stone wings into anyone standing in front of the crypt door.

Piotr slowly slides his sword from his back in preparation for any danger. He points the sword at the statue and turns his head toward Serata.
"Any chance you can disable that trap? We've got you covered in case any creatures come through that door."
He says, nodding towards the crypt door.

"only one way to find out, lets see what happens" Serata tilts her head looking the statue like trap over as she moves and runs her fingers around it and tries to see if she can disable the trap Disable Device: 1d20 + 14 ⇒ (15) + 14 = 29
Serata is able to expertly approach the statue and cut two wires which prevent the angel wings to strike you!!

"we should be ok from this one" she will move her attention to the door and proceed as she was before hand and opens the door and slides in along the wall

Serata opens the door!
A16. Crypt
This vaulted mausoleum holds six large sarcophagi, each bearing the carved image of an aasimar dressed in ornate robes and holding glass spheres in one hand and a bell, a book, or a lotus flower in the other.
Innumerable runes crowd the top edges and sides of each sarcophagus. A solid wooden door stands near another door that has been boarded shut.

Additionally, you see three wretched human figures with tight leathery skin, sunken eyes, and an emaciated frame that seem to start moving with eerie alacrity.
You all receive a suprise round action - so only move or standard action please!

"I really hope Dakang didn't want his deceased ancestors wandering around in here."
The Duelist hurls a glob of magical acid at Brown.
Acid Splash: 1d20 + 6 ⇒ (5) + 6 = 11 vs. touch

Piotr is suddenly taken aback by the appearance of undead moving out from the shadows. He goes through the painful transformation into wolf form and howls menacingly at the creatures.
"Aaaaa-woooooo!!!"

Goe Lem steps forward and chants, Dymmak Altyn! and the crypt becomes deathly quiet.
5' step and cast silence. I think that is the furthest left I can see to center the emanation. Hoping that will keep anyone else in the complex from knowing there is fight going on in here.

...ooooP
Piotr looks around and just hears... silence.
He tries to mutter something, and then pokes at his ear, but still... no sound.
With the sudden silence, there's no way for him to offer a prayer to Milani for assistance for his friends in this battle.
Just wondering why casting silence is a good idea.
Male Oread Warpriest 4, HP:35/35, AC:19, Touch:11, Flat Footed:18, F:+6, R:+2, W:+7,+2vs Death, Init:+1, Perc:+10, Darkvision
We are having a fight in a place we are not supposed to be. Fights are noisy. I thought it might be a good idea to not let everyone in the building know what we were doing. If a spell is really needed we can step out of the silent area and cast into it.

*sigh*
With all the closed doors and distance from the temple inhabitants, I really think noise wouldn't be a problem. My issue is that all of my standard action spells have verbal components, as well as my self-buff spells that are swift actions that I cast while in battle, which also, all have verbal components. But, oh well. I guess I can take a move action away from the battle and out of the silence to cast bless on the group.
Rogue 5 | AC 24 T 18 FF 17| HP 43/43| F 4 R 11 W 1| Init 8/10DL| Perc 7 | Illumination points 2
if these are normal undead, then slashing them shouldnt be hard, shouldn't much in the means of casting I would think, however if you need it then go for it
