At Lythar's report, Koloran offers a quick silent prayer to Iomedae and follows him downstairs. John...five heads are better than four...come with us.
Perception-
"But really wouldn't eight hands be better than ten. I think I would be really clumsy" John says as he starts to follow Koloran.
At the bottom of the stairs, the hallway turns left and ends in a simple wooden door. A short message has been artfully carved on the door, but someone seems to have marred the message with slashes from a sharp instrument.
The door carving reads, “Praise and thanks to those who spent their lives in service to Erastil—their work strengthens us all.”
You see Drolgun and James with thier ears planted on the closed door.
Drolgun moves away from the door and whispers to the rest of the group. Shall we burst through all at once? Or James and myself can go forward again to spring any traps and the rest can follow at a distance?
"Whichever."
They already know we're here. The longer we wait the more chance we have of losing them. Break it down.
"Hey guys, what if it is like a tomb or something. I'm just sayin'."
Drolgun addresses Jemaes, Before we bust through would you like to pick the lock? If it's locked, it would save some time and just maybe we could surprise 'em.
Drolgun then looks to the rest of the group, I'll go first once we're through the door.
Good thinking...James, can you get us in without breaking the door incase we need to shut it again quickly? Koloran says in a low tone.
"Allllllright."
James will slowly try to turn the knob on the door [if their is one] (Stealth) to see if its locked. if their is no knob or if its locked then he will try to pick the lock.
"Oh it's one of these, nasty ones, you see what you got here is the PX9400 secret locking device. It uses chemicals and natural magic from the mecurial steel to seal the lock shut but I know the secret around em."
Disable Divice-
"And uhhh that should do."
Lythar stands behind Drolgun readying his sword for whatever is on the other side of the door.
"No, just kidding their is no mecurial steel, onward shall we!?" James says kicking the door open then letting out a shreik only known in foreign countrys as the shreik of good-will then moves onward hopeing to catch them off guard.
You step through the door that has now been kicked open. The walls are made of carved stone and a door is visible to the east. The room is cold and quiet. Koloran's shield is the only thing lighting the area.
moving forward Lythar steps passed Drolgun and stands beside James to provide a strong front.
Koloran will move as close as he can to the doorway and try to shine his light into the room.
Drolgun looks around disliking the quiet of the room.

Perception for unusual stonework (traps/secret doors)
John will just stay with Koloran, he has the light.
James moves to AL 22
Drolgun stands in the doorway, his axe and shield ready, listening and looking for anything unusual.
In the mean time, Lythar pushes his way past Drolgun into the room while Koloran moves up behind Drolgun to shed light into the darkened area.
John follows up behind Koloran as James makes moaning noises and moves across the room as if he were undead.
Koloran will step into the room and look around.
Perception:
Lythar will follow James to give him backup if the time arises.
Drolgun whispers to the group as he points with his axe to the where the noise is coming from, On the left.
James will check this door for traps then disarm them or he will open it if their is no traps.

What is going on James? Drolgun? Can you see anything? Koloran whispers.
Twelve brick-lined crypts take up most of the wall space in this room, yet strangely, a number of large cushions are strewn about the floor. A door on the north end is open.
As James gets out of the way, you rush in shield ready and dwarven waraxe set. You strike out at the first tiefling you see causing him to drop his crossbow as he takes a shot from your waraxe. At the same time the tiefling behind him fires wildly taking out his friend in front of him.
The tiefling to your left drops his crossbow and picks up his mace, but your shield blocks his blow.
The tiefling behind him fires with his crossbow as well but misses horribly as the shot goes into the next room.
Behind the group of normal tieflings meanders a thing from nightmares. It's skin appearing withered and hard, almost as if it had dried to a leathery-like shell after being preserved in a tomb. He raises a hand slowly and a bolt of magic fires towards you. Hitting you full on.
Drolgun yells C'mon bastards let's make you as dead as that thing behind ya.
Drolgun will stay where he is and attack the tiefling at AJ21 utilizing Power Attack.

initiative:
Seeing Drolgun rush in. Lythar moves after him to back him up. his sword ready for what awaits him.
Janiven, Arael we are under attack! Koloran yells to warn those above.
Initiative:
A tiefling from the back row steps in to swing with his mace, but his blow glances off your shield.
You can hear Koloran casting a spell from behind, encouraging you to continue fighting.
Lythar steps up to try and help but he seems to be momentarily distracted.
The other tiefling attempts to fire toward you or Lythar. However, he seems to not have the same blessing as you have gathered for his crossbow string breaks.
All of a sudden the mummy like creature in the back sends another volley of magical fire your way.
Darkness begins permeating from the room where Drolgun had entered. Even the brightness of your shield cannot penatrate this magical darkness.
'Whats going on? Are you hurt?'
"I thought it would be a good idea to get some healing potions! So move out of the way and I'll be back." James says pushing them aside.
Lythar will push through the darkness to the fight within or on the other side of. He sword at the ready to strike any enemy.
Koloran, realizing the darkness may quickly doom the group begins shouting orders...John, quickly run back up and warn Arael and Janiven that we are in need of aid down here. Drolgun, I can't see you at all! If you are hurt, cry out and I will try to find you!
In response to Kolroan, he yells I could use some divine help in here. This mummy ain't gonna die on its own.
Drolgun says to the mummy as feels its magical fire, Ooh, that's starting to tickle bandage man.
Drolgun will attack the tiefling with the mace in hand, again with Power Attack.

As the tiefling hits the ground you can hear Koloran and Lythar coming up from behind; trying to make their way in to help out in the fight.
You can see Lythar trying to navigate in this darkness and you spot his adversary coming in for the chance to hit him full on. You see it smile as it hits Lythar in the chest with it's mace.
The bandaged creature in the back laughs at your futile attempt at humor and unleashes another bolt of magic.
Koloran attempts to contact Drolgun to aid him if possible.
Lythar moves into the darkness, his weapon at the ready. Suddenly he is hit full on in the chest by something who follows the hit with mocking laughter.
All of a sudden the darkness lightens up for a second as a bolt of magic goes flying into Drolgun. But just as suddenly it goes out.
He is under some spell! Arael says.

Making use of the quick flash of light to get his bearing Koloran picks out Drolguns form and move straight towards him. Iomedae grant us mercy!

Cure Light Wounds
"AUGH!!" Lythar staggers a bit before swinging in the direction that the blow came from.
Attack:
Damage:
Out of the corner of your eye you spot Koloran feeling around in the dark with the words of a spell coming from his lips. You see him swipe out with his hand to feel nothing.
Swinging for all he is worth, Lythar attempts to hit the one who hurt him so, but to no avail.
Fortunately for Lythar, the movement with his blade is enough to cause the tiefling to miss.
The mummy like creature puts his hands together for another spell but the spell seemed to fizzle at his attempt.
Drolgun says, Lythar he's directly in front of you.
