A Grave Matter for the Party of Seven Strangers

Melvos calmly mentions (almost lackadaisically) "Umm.. Hey - guys?

Why are we thinking of announcing that we're here?

From the look of those claw marks, it seems like it's been awhile since anything crawled up the well.
Why don't we just go thru one of the mausoleum doors quiet-like and see what's in 'em?"
 

Zig turns away from the well.

"I can make a 90 foot jump no problem, [ooc: feather fall at will] and might be able to take someone with me. Trouble is, we don't know what's down there, and would make a lot of noise. I say let's put the biggest thing we can find over the well, and do as Melvos suggests. If we can't open the mausoleum, the well will still be where it is now."
 


"Yes, yes. I like Melvos' idea. And Zig is correct also; Is there something VERY heavy that we can put over the well and then move on quietly? (looks around for something big and heavy)."

If that can be and is done, then K and L will look to Valjean to search the Mauseleum door for traps and what not.

If a door is found, Kyr'nan and Lazz'rut can be seen exchanging a bitter sweet look It will be good to be in the dark again...and painful.

There is a field of tomb stones here of varying sizes and shapes. You are certainly able to find one which will be big and heavy and also cover the well opening.

Bruk grabs one of the larger tomb stones, gets a good grip on it and lugs it over to the well. He heaves it up, and slams it onto the top. Some chips of stone go flying, but it appears that the walls of the well are intact. The tomb stone appears to weigh several hundred pounds, but Bruk carried it around as it if were a piece of firewood.

I assume you mean the mausoleum opposite the well (there are three mausoleums total) as it is the largest.

This is an immense stone building with its outside carved, rather like the well, in images of demons, devils, and monsters. Hundreds of skulls are carved into the sides as well. It is 40 feet by 60 feet in dimension. There are steps leading up to a huge iron door. Atop the building are numerous demonic appearing statues which almost appear to be staring at you.

As you approach the door, a dozen of the statues animate at fly towards you in a threatening fashion [in person this would mean roll initiative- declare your intentions for the combat].

Initiatives are as follows:
Valjean 27
Zig 25
Kyr’nan 22
Jordeh 12
Melvos 10
Bruk 7
Alistaire 6
Lazz’rut 6
Lorelin 6

Everyone through Jordeh declare your actions (the rest go after the critters).

"And the party begins"

With that Kyr'nan surveys the landscape and removes herself from the path of of Jordeh who she can only assume will be charging to the front as they discussed earlier; She draws in a powerful breathe and looses a quiet prayer to Olidammarra Let your chaos reign today. Prepared for battle now, she draws her mace...

OOC:
- 5 foot step to make sure that she is not the only target of 12 animated objects...after all she is a cleric and will called on to heal the party later ;)
- Casts divine favor
- draws her mace

When she cast bull strength earlier what did she add to her strength? (d4+1)

without that but including the divine favor she is +7 AT / +3 dam. for next round.
