Shale normally likes the middle of the group, 4th place if you'd like a specific place.

As you are threading your way between the rock piles, Shale hears a grinding and scraping sound within the rock wall to his right. Before he can bring it to the others attention, the wall shudders and a chunk explodes outwards, narrowly missing him. It is followed by an armored claw which rips its way through the rock as if it were paper, tearing a huge hole in the wall. Framed in the passagway beyond is a hunched, hulking beast with a thick reddish carapace. Its insectoid head thrusts forward as it clashes its powerful mandibles and stares at its new surroundings with multifaceted eyes. An umber hulk!
The hulk pauses on the threshold and rakes a claw over its own carapace, ripping at the armored plates. It throws back its head and its mandibles strain apart as if it is trying to howl, but it makes no sound. It lurches to one side, banging into a wall, shakes itself, and turns back to glare at Shale, pain and madness in its eyes.
[sblock=Initiative]
Bob rolls 7: Initiative (1d20+0=7)
The Umber Hulk rolls 6: Initiative (1d20+4=6)
So everyone except Artemis can go now. The the umber hulk goes. Then everybody (including Artemis) can go, in any order.

[sblock=Rules and Terrain]
You were travelling towards the bottom of the map when you were interrupted. The right edge of the map is the right wall of the tunnel.
The area marked "standing water" is about 8 inches deep and the floor beneath is slippery. It is difficult terrain.
The rock piles are about 5 feet high. Climbing them takes a DC 15 Athletics or Acrobatics check, and when you're on top you grant combat advantage due to the unstable footing. (And they also count as difficult terrain.)
Everyone can make free Dungeoneering and Heal checks to see if they can read the following two sblocks (these are monster knowledge checks). You can read the Perception blocks if you beat the DC with your Passive Perception, or if you spend a minor action on your turn to roll Perception.
[/sblock]
[sblock=Dungeoneering 18]
Umber Hulks are known for burrowing tunnels through the earth - as you've seen. You've also heard that it is dangerous to meet the gaze of their strangely faceted eyes.
[/sblock]
[sblock=Heal 12]
As the umber hulk moves its arm you see a bloated worm squirm between its armoured plates. Some sort of parasite?

There is a large bat clinging to the ceiling 20' above the rockpile at J7, wings folded. It's dark grey-black fur blends in with the shadows.

Amost as a reflex, Shale concentrates on the large bug thing, creating a mass of static energy. It pulses and send jolts of energy around which don't seem to damage the creature, but the pain from them doesn't allow it to move quickly.
As he does that, Shale hurries away from it as fast as he can, wading through the dark waters. When he looks back, he spots something strange at the ceiling.
says pointing at the ceiling, almost over Artemis' head.
[sblock=ooc]Using Static Mote at F10. Any enemy that starts it's turn next to it is slowed (no roll). Warning: the mote will explode in an area burts 3 at the start of my next round, so have it in mind when you move your character. Move action to move to M9, minor to roll perception.
I don't have very clear if we're supposed to roll perception once for all hidden text, or if every preception sblock needs it own roll. I went with the first option.
EDIT: Also, use Intelect Fortress (interrupt, +3 to defenses) or the Orb of Mental Constitution power (Interrupt, can use my Will defense against an attack against Fort or AC, and spend 1 power point for +4 to Will) if appropiate.[/sblock]

Keeping one eye on the bats above him he decided the umber hulk was the greater threat. "Watch out, above us" he called in warning.
Karma understanding his old colleagues spell prepares a prayer of his own, readying a spell of bone chilling fear to even the hardest of creatures. Waiting for the opportune moment to unleash it he brings it to his memory ready to discharge.
[sblock=actions]
Ready an action: When Umber hulk is effected by spell: static mote and is therefore slowed cast "cause fear" 21 vs. Will. If hits target moves it's movement +2(my charisma backwards avoiding difficult terrain if possible) As that would happen at the beginning of it's turn the umber hulk if hit starts it's turn at the C-D column?

“The big clawed monster has a wormy-thing riding inside it!”
Lilli weaves a spell that creates visions inside the head of the large monster that threaten to spill over in to the mind of the worm she spotted.
[sblock=actions]
JNC: I think I'm on 19 hit points, not 21.
Dungeoneering Check = Roll Lookup . Total: 10. Nope!
Heal Check = Roll Lookup . Total: 21. Ooh a natural 20.
Nightmare Eruption at the Umber Hulk (if it hits, it will damage the parasite at least) = Roll Lookup . Total: 21.
Potential Damage to Umber Hulk = Roll Lookup Total: 8.
Nightmare Eruption (At Will Standard Ranged 10 ✦ Arcane, Illusion, Implement, Psychic)
Target: One creature
Attack: +5 vs. Will
Hit: 1d8+5 Psychic damage and any enemy adjacent to the target takes Psychic damage equal to your Intelligence modifier (+5)
I've realised some discrepancies on my character combat sheet forms that still exist after an original feat choice was vetoed. My truley sincere apologies, I'll use what's right and hopefully sort it out on Sunday evening.[/sblock]

Gil looks up, and back to the hulk, he notices several things all at once, and unleashes the only thing he can think to help everyone. The horde! shouts the young wizard, lifting his arms in the air! Thousands of centipede erupt from Gil's mouth, out of his sleeves, and begin scurrying up the walls and across the water. The bugs slip between the carapace of the Umber Hulk, and all over the Hulks eyes. Other centipede seem to be making a straight shot for the ceiling, and massing above Artemis' head.
Gil sloshes toward the dry land, Come this way Bob, stay close to me! Look at me, keep your eyes on me, and come this way! Don't turn around, look at me Bob, don't look toward the bug! the wizard keeps shouting at Bob to look at him, and not to turn around, adamant that Bob comes closer to the dry land.
