ooc; I had wanted to see if Kaz would post, but it seems not! So Kaz will take a passive 10 on his check (with any modifers of course).
IC: The quartet of heroes carefully entered the larger chamber, Jehen's provided illumination showing an oval shaped room the walls roughly hewn from stone. The bullseye latern reveals the chamber to be about 60' long, slimming down to 30' wide to the left and right of the group, though those corners are in shadow presently.
Exiting from the corridor, the group can see three other exits in the far wall; one corridor directly across from them and two smaller tunnels flanking it some 20' to the left and right.
Hogoblins out in front, the warforged and House of Finding heir hang back near the exit, while the halfling has stayed out near the door to keep an eye on the group's escape route.
Jehen's illumination causes shadows to jump and flicker throughout the large chamber, the ceiling lost above in darkness as the quartet gaze about the cave and try to discern if anything awaits them.

Spot DC 23, her arcane sight aiding her greatly, the inquisitive is able to discern two very large forms clinging to the ceiling; they look like thin oily furred rodents, until one their large earred heads turns to regard the group; pupiless eyes staring blankly as one of the two large dire bats let's go of the rock above and unfurls 15' wide wings....

A sudden screech, like claws on chalk board splits the musty air of the place, causing the group to falter in surprise!
ooc; Initiatives please! Jehen is the only PC who can act in the surprise round! FIGHT!
