(OOC - I'm confused. Why does everyone think Rogash is turning into a Chaos Beast? I didn't see anything in IG's post to suggest that.)
OOC: You have to go all the way back to the beginning of the fight where he failed the fort save at the first hit. He made the charisma check, so he had a full minute to slay the beastie and get a restoration before more rolls were needed. IG didn't give us an exact time for the duration of the fight, but he can't have more than a round or two left. Odds are against him making another such check.
Shai shakes his head. "Nah. If your critter isn't tellin' you they need us, I can stay out of the sewer for a good long time and never miss it," he says.
"I'm just worried about that man, I guess? And if they are getting rid of him in there, I'm wonderin' if there's a second exit to that room and we're sitting here while White Plume scurries off again."
((OOC: Are the fights continuing with new contenders, or did that last fight end the 'festivities' for now?))

Talashia shrugs. "It's possible, but unless we want to start a war down here in the middle of a crowd of people, we won't be able to find out."
She sighs. "Believe me, I'm not feeling particularly patient either, but we have to remember the bigger picture. I'm sure the mayor would like nothing more than an excuse to put us all in stocks, or execute us."
Two more combatants enter the fighting cage, both muscled humans that look to be fairly experienced at this sort of thing. There is no sign of White-Plume or his guest, as the back door remains closed and guarded.
With a stutter and trembling fingers Uulark completes his spell. Miraculously, Ragash begins to look himself again. Shazi looks a bit put out, and Dyspeer is busy otherwise occupying himself... because he can.
"Thank you my friend, that was...unpleasant." With a shudder, Rogash strives to pull himself together mentally now that his body is back to normal. "Dyspeer, give it a rest, your master is likely in need of us. Let's get moving and see if this route will in fact get us into the bar." He sets off giving the remains of the Chaos Beast a wide berth.
"I agree, Dyspeer, give it a rest. We're not impressed. And don't come near me with that tongue now! I know where it's been. Let's get back with the others before another one of those things comes along. And I need more scrolls now. *sigh*"
"Hold on there, Rogash! What in Hades are you doing? Didn't our brush with death, and your near-transformation into a chaos beast tell you that we need to get the rest of our team with us before we go any further here? Or at least get another scroll of Restoration!"
"It'd be hard for him to do, if we removed him first," suggests Buurt to Talashia. "And if he's as attached to this as he seems to be, might be best for all if we did just that and then worked our way down the pyramid from there."

"I hope we'll be able to find a secret way into the bar where they are no doubt in grave danger. If I sense we are getting too far off course we'll head back. Of course if we see another one of the cursed Chaos Beasts, I'm gonna be leaving in one heck of a hurry."
Through the door is a small chamber with two stone pillars reaching up to the ceiling. Directly opposite you is another closed door, identical to the one you just came through.
The dwarf moves quickly to the door and checks for traps and locks.
Rogash doesn't notice any traps, but the door is most definitely secured from the other side. Seems someone had that chaos beast locked away nice and tight--at least until you came along.
