Brows furrowed over not being able to find anything to release the blockage, Haruuc follows Brignat, Chain wrapped around his arm so as not to make any noise, but ready to be unfurled at a moment's notice.
But leaving a relic for anyone to find would be better?
16+7 = 23 percep to find a release.

You cautiously proceed down the hall, you reach the point at the end of the hall where it branches around a wall, it appears it possibly rejoins beyond or it might split into two separate hallways. You cautiously tap the floor, revealing a hollow depression beneath, a pit trap right at the intersection of the hallway.
A high pitched moan echoes through the hallway, you can't tell where it's coming from, possibly all around.
Brignat steps out of the way to allow Haruuc to get to the trap. Keeping his bow trained down the hallways, he looks for the sign of the moan.
Haruuc looks hesitantly down the passage before seeing that Brignat is watching for signs of trouble. He kneels and sets down his Chain to work on trying to disable the trap.
Disable Device Check:
Haruuc picks up his chain and turns to the others. "That should do it. Now let's see what all that noise is about."
He taps Brignat on the shoulder and motions him forward, not bothering to wait for Drexel.
Drexel, pauses where he is and frowns as he watches Haruuc ignore him and start to walk away with Brignat. "I am going to have to teach him his place and soon" he whispers under his breath...
Brignat moves forward continuing to keep an eye out for whatever made that noise.

You round the corner, the passageway continues another 50 to 60 feet, elaborate carving cover the walls in this section, the scene of a Valenar elf fighting hundreds of hobgoblins. You smell something in this area, no longer do you sense a musty tome, but the scent of wild flowers and blood. The floor is a polished red marble, and as you rounded the corner, small globes of light activate in the ceiling illuminating the passage. An elaborate darkwood door is inset at the end of the passage.
Drexel:
Nodding at the door, "Haruuc, if you would please."
Haruuc walks up to the door and runs his hands over it, checking to see if there are any Traps present.
Perception Check:
I stand few feet away from the other two looking back down the way we came making sure that nothing is going to surprise us by coming around the corner that we did not check out.
??
Cursing himself again, Haruuc dives forward in an attempt to evade whatever it was he set off, but still gets hit by some darts as they shoot at him from their hidden recesses.
He comes to his feet and crouches down to look more closely at the floor where he just stepped, hoping to find the pressure plate so he can disarm it.
Perception Check:
I see the movement of Haruuc out of the corner of my eye and turn my head in time to see him become a pin cusion. I laugh and say "Better you then me Friend"

Drexel/Brignat:
Haruuc
Haruuc glares daggers up at Drexel, but the damage is done and his concentration is ruined. He can't find the pressure plates thanks to Drexel's needling.
I quickly get serious and sharply whisper "To arms friends! there is movement coming from down the hall. let us move back behind these cleverly concealed traps to see if perhaps they can slow down the enemy a bit"
Brignat nods to Drexel and takes up position with his bow ready.
Drexel/Brignat you moving to Haruuc then? Past the dart trap?
I imagine that would be the case. I will skirt the wall to attempt to miss whatever trap Huracc set off since he appeared to set it off by walking down the middle of the hall.
yes

Trigger how many pressure plates?
Brignat:
DARTS:,
DMG:
Drexel:
DARTS: , , ,
DMG: , ,
As Drexel and Brignat move across the trapped area, Brignat is struck solidly in the neck by one dart after narrowly avoiding another. Drexel has 3 darts impact him square in the chest. But the adamantine breastplate destroys teh darts before they can penetrate the black metal.

apparently our ancestors knew how to make some good armor, maybe you should equip some to Haruuc?
Haruuc lets a low grow escape his throat at Drexel's words. His hands tighten around his Chain, but he tries to channel the anger into attacking whatever is coming at them down the corridor.
"Honor kills in more ways than one Drexel." At that, Brignat readies his bow.

As you gather into your defensive formation, you see the form of Hruskin come from around the corner, his eyes glow bright green. You notice he's wearing one of the breastplates now. As he completes gesturing and a ray of fire leaps from his firetip.
Mechanics:
The ray of fire leaps toward Haruuc, who dodges the flame only just as the heat from the ray curls the fur on his face.
"Huh Huh Huh"
"Huh Huh Huh" Three voices were laughing in unison escape Hruskin's lips.
"Huh Huh Huh"
"You shall pay for invading the resting place of the Valenar" in goblin
"You shall pay for invading the resting place of the Valenar" in elven
"You shall pay for invading the resting place of the Valenar" in draconic
"We'll... I must say I wasn't expecting this... I was hoping for another charging attack. Good thing that clerics are somewhat lacking in the damaging attacks, no?"
Brignat fires a shot into his once companion and then moves to place himself between his the abomination and his comrads.
I will sheath my short swords and pull out my bow remaining where I am on the far side of the traps
Haruuc lets out a low growl as the flame licks past his face. He raises his hand and a spark of elctricity jump towards their shambling former teammate.
Electrical Blast (Ranged Touch Attack):
Damage:

Drexel sheathes his blades and pulls and his bow, dropping into an archer's stance as he nocks an arrow, Brignat snaps off a shot, the shot flies true, the arrow hitting the breastplate, shattering the arrow which causes a spray of splinters to erupt into Hruskin's face, one shard pierces his eye, Hruskin is already moving back behind the wall as Harruc's electrical blast scorches the engravings on the wall.
"Ja'ash Vahl! Fesh ti'kell Valenar."
"Anyone know what that pointy eared abomination said?!?"
Something about the Valinar
Brignat stands ready.
