[QUOTE="pukunui, post: 7390064, member: 54629"] Cheers. So I think what I’ll do is ultimately allow the PCs a long rest, but during that time they will hear the duergar testing the barricade and then sending in an interpreter to talk through the door. I won’t have the duergar negotiate, I don’t think. They’ll just use the interpreter to warn the PCs that they’re going to be buried alive for their transgressions. The interpreter will also tell them about the villagers’ situation. It will then be up to the PCs to decide if they want to rest and have to dig their way out or try to bust out before the duergar bring the corridor ceiling down. For the record, there are four PCs plus a badly injured dwarf NPC (he is the one they were sent to find, and he was being tortured by the duergar leader, so is low on hp and has some exhaustion levels). The PCs just hit 5th level and consist of a forest gnome life cleric, a sun elf eldritch knight, a half-sun elf hunter ranger, and a tiefling dragon sorcerer. [/QUOTE]
