As Coraine and Dar grip the heavy iron bars and attempt to lift them, Otto goes to work looking for a release mechanism, as Ragnok and Two Axe ready their weapons and stay alert for an impending attack.
Dara lends her strength (Aid Aother 9+2=11, success) to Coraine s the paladin heaves with all of his strength, but even with the help is unable to lift the massive grate (Str check 15+3+2=20).
Otto has no luck, either (Search 15), and upon first effort finds no way to release the portcullis.
Ragnok's and Two Axe's attention is diverted way from their companions, though, as the doors to the north and south slam open. Numerous foul looking humanoids, their mottled decaying flesh stretched tight across their bones, pour into the chamber.
Sorry for the delays...have had a busy week.

Marco peers over the shoulders of his companions, watching for signs of whatever caused the slamming doors. His crossbow held tightly in his hands, he carefully considers the fact that he's a lousy shot and wonders why exactly Coraine thought this was a good idea.
[sblock=ooc]If there's actually any ghouls in sight Marco will loose his bolt
Attack -4 (+4 -4[cover] -4[melee, likely?])
Then he will attempt to use his extensive knowledge of the undead to aid his friends in their combat.

Otto continues looking for a release catch, but is fairly certain that if such a thing exists, it is not on this side of the portcullis.
"Again," says Coraine, heaving on the bars. "Quickly!""Ragnok, leave them to Two Axe for now and lend us a hand." Ragnok takes one look at the ghouls closing upon him, and raises his axe to attack. Dara continues the efforts, trying to lift the portcullis together with Coraine. Their efforts begin to bear some fruit, as they manage to raise the portcullis about two feet off the ground.
Two Axe stands his ground, keeping his back towards the portcullis and Ragnok, and facing the creatures from the south.
Marco peers over the shoulders of his companions, watching for signs of whatever caused the slamming doors. His crossbow held tightly in his hands, he carefully considers the fact that he's a lousy shot and wonders why exactly Coraine thought this was a good idea.
The dwarf steps toward his opponents, eager to thin their ranks. Norryjar descends in a powerful arc, and cuts completely through the closest of the ghouls.
As the ghouls from the south charge, Two Axe whips his orc double axe at the first, slashing a wicked wound across its chest.
As Two Axe attacks, the Warlock calls upon his magic and releases it at the lead humanoid. The blast strikes the creature in the chest, scorching its grey, decaying skin.
Marco release a bolt from his crossbow, but his hurried shot is blocked by one of the iron bars of the portcullis, and the arrow deflects off into the darkness.
The three southernmost ghouls lick their lips and drive at Two Axe, attempting to overwhelm the half-orc warrior before his friends can come to his aid. The frantic Two Axe parries and dodges, and somehow escapes the exchange unharmed.
