Tarin agrees, some light would be useful… he zones out again… recovering his wits he notices that his jacket seams to be glowing… he coughs up more sea water.
Neither in need of light nor desire of being discovered, "Cracking" John takes hold of his staff and ventures down the dark corridor, staying well-ahead of the party.
30 feet or so, to stay out of the glow of the light.
Several desks are arranged along the northern and eastern edges of this small stone alcove. Whereas the stonework leading to this chamber is rough, the walls in the alcove are polished. A single gem rests among the neatly filed papers on the desk, emitting a soft magical luminescence that brightens the small room.
DC 15 Appraise:
The gem on the desk is a cut alexandrite worth 550 gp.
You all start searching and looking around.
The paperwork on the desk is a priceless collection of Pathfinder Society lore and information describing dozens of unexplored sites. Most are written in an Azlanti dialect further encrypted using an old cipher employed by the Society centuries ago.
Although it is clear to you that this collection is very important, you have a hard time understanding the documents as they are mostly encrypted.
DC 15 Linguistics:
You would assume that the discovery requires several weeks of careful study by researchers at the Grand Lodge.
Dia does not detect aura of evil on the first person approaching.
Please note that this spell by a paladin works only on 1 person at a time but as a move action already detects round 3 of the spell. But you are low level so almost nobody has an evil aura yet due to limited hit dice.

Dia suddenly sees and an elven archer appearing and looking at her with a hateful smile. He stops 15 ft from her and shoots an arrow that is deflected by her armor.
A human then approaches her with rage in his eyes. He tries to hit Dia but she dodges and his large greatclub hits the wall so hard that rocks is smashed.
Human with Greatclub, str +4, bab +1, weapon focus +1, power attack -1:1d20 + 4 + 1 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (7) + 4 + 1 + 1 - 1 = 12 Human with Greatclub, str 2H +4+2, power attack 2h +3:1d10 + 9 ⇒ (2) + 9 = 11
Then a dwarven lady approaches and touches the Archer with a spell that she casts.

Matèo will move up, and look directly at the jerk threatening Dia.
Hey, jackoff! Yea, YOU! Just wait until I get to you, I’m gonna bash your brains in and there ain’t a damned thing you or your cronies can do about it! as he tries to intimidate the enemy before him.
intimidate rules:
Demoralize Opponent
You can use this skill to cause an opponent to become shaken for a number of rounds. This shaken condition doesn’t stack with other shaken conditions to make an affected creature frightened. The DC of this check is equal to 10 + the target’s Hit Dice + the target’s Wisdom modifier.
Success: If you are successful, the target is shaken for one round. This duration increases by 1 round for every 5 by which you beat the DC. You can only threaten an opponent this way if it is within 30 feet and can clearly see and hear you. Using demoralize on the same creature only extends the duration; it does not create a stronger fear condition.
Fail: The opponent is not shaken.
Action Demoralizing an opponent is a standard action.
Enforcer Ability:
Frightening (Ex): Whenever a thug successfully uses Intimidate to demoralize a creature, the duration of the shaken condition is increased by 1 round. In addition, if the target is shaken for 4 or more rounds, the thug can instead decide to make the target frightened for 1 round. This ability replaces trapfinding.
intimidate:1d20 + 9 ⇒ (14) + 9 = 23
If I can get to Frightened I will cause the Frightened condition
The paladin smiles grimly before offering nothing more that what turns out to be a 'warning' swinging . "Three on one? I guess I should feel honored. However, my friends are already arriving. Maybe you cowards would like to shuffle along before the floor is covered in your blood...and entrails."
The human with rage in his eyes on the other hand hits Dia with his large greatclub and her rib cage is broken so that she falls to the ground bleeding.
Human with Greatclub, str +4, bab +1, weapon focus +1, power attack -1:1d20 + 4 + 1 + 1 - 1 ⇒ (15) + 4 + 1 + 1 - 1 = 20 Human with Greatclub, str 2H +4+2, power attack 2h +3:1d10 + 9 ⇒ (10) + 9 = 19
The dwarven lady touches the Archer again with a spell that she casts.

Matèo moves forward as he sees the mighty paladin fall. He carefully stands over to protect her…sort of. Even if he doesn’t have his preferred method of violence out, his earthbreaker, he balls up his fists with have cestus equipped. He punches the jerkoff in hopes to remind him of his threat of violence.

Tarin continues to hobble forward. Hearing the sound of cracking bones followed by a thud he winces and his eyes roll back causing him to stumble. A burst of holy energy radiates from his body and washes over his allies. The faint smell of seawater permeates the tunnel and Tarin looks somewhat confused.
channel positive energy to heal (excluding the bad guys):1d6 ⇒ 1
(John also got 2 points of healing from the clw I cast earlier the way to the mausoleum)
With Dia down, Jack steps in to fill the gap!
Move Rage "Not sure who you ruffians are, but that is no way to treat a lady. Especially, when she has friends!" Jack cries out in anger as the half-orc he brings down his quarterstaff.
@Mateo you are squeezing in the space that you are in: Each move into or through a narrow space counts as if it were 2 squares, and while squeezed in a narrow space, you take a –4 penalty on attack rolls and a –4 penalty to AC.
Mateo almost penetrates the armor of the brute but cannot get through!
AC is 14 due to rage but you are squeezing and your to hit is -4 on top.

John really is able to knock the brute in the head with his staff but the barbarian is still standing!
~
Rouqar moves forward and Tarin heals his colleagues!
~
The elven archer shoots at John who was able to really hurt the brute but again hits the wall.

Tarin recovers from his momentary stumble and continues onward. Reaching forward in order to render some first aid to Dia, his eyes again go blank and healing energy busts from his hand to reinvigorate the paladin.
Seeing the downed barbarian take more of a beating from Matéo, the half-orc congratulates his fellow Pathfinder. "Nicely, done. I'll get the next one and then you can clean up."
John then advances toward the dwarf. "Your friend would have been better off if you had just left him unconscious. Of course, you'll be join' 'im soon. By the way, folks call me, 'Cracking' John."
He swings his staff at the dwarven woman.
Melee (quarterstaff) w/rage v blue:1d20 + 5 + 2 ⇒ (9) + 5 + 2 = 16 Damage (B) w/ rage:1d6 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 6 + 2 = 9
Seeing the discussion post: John, In case you are still in positive hit points, then act normally!! :-D
Oh no! You need me to go back and try to do math?!
It is likely a moot point as 1) John would use orc ferocity to stay up for 1 more round and 2) I suspect the fight will not last much longer than that.
John glances down at the arrow stuck in his chest. He rips it out and slams it on the ground.
Using once per day orc ferocity ability. John is disabled, but still standing and gripping weapon for one round.
Tarin. wrote:
Tarin channels again to heal his allies (he excludes their attackers) and then moves back to free up some space.
He then looks down and smiles with a big toothy grin as the wound from the torn-free arrow begins to close.
Ah, assuming that John was in fact at 7 hp before the arrow wound, John would be still be up and at 3 hp, I believe. I will put John's HP at 3, which saves me the trouble of having to reconstruct the source of prior injuries and whether or not they were previously healed.
The half-orc then turns to Matèo and gestures, "After you. A promise is a promise."

Sure…thanks big guy. So…as much as I’d LOVE to bash your brains along the cavern wall. I suppose if you’re beyond dead we cannot get information out of you
Matèo will alter his grip slightly, and try to simply knock out the assailant instead of outright kill them.
non lethal earthbreaker, no penally to attack from Mock Gladiator trait:1d20 + 4 ⇒ (8) + 4 = 12
NL damage and shaken for rounds = to damage via Enforcer feat:2d6 + 6 ⇒ (5, 1) + 6 = 12
Due to Fey Foundling, Dia is at 10 hp (+2 from the CLW, and +2 from the Channel)
A little rattled, Dia recovers her senses. "Thank you Tarin. I owe you one." Seeing the passage blocked by combatants, Dia can only bide her time and wait.
So much for holding the line.
Readied Action <Barbarian on the floor wakes and does anything other than surrender.>
The catfolk rogue can sink his blade into the elf's shoulder!
The rest of the group is up but please note that you need to bull rush the elf or use ranged attacks or somehow tumble through his square to get to the other side!
Believing the fight is well enough in hand, Dia deals with the massive, and thankfully unconscious, human. She tosses his weapon deeper down the passage and begins to tie him up.
I don't think the archer can take an AoO with a bow. That feat should(?) be well out of reach.
