Jango looks at Ari jumping down. And having to climb down just remember him some bad memory. Dark underground. Lately, nothing good have happen in teh underground for me. I hope it won't repeat again. thikns Jango, but without telling it aloud. But as he thinks that, he cross Jina's eye who have probably have seen his bad feeling.
"Let's help Khalia and Rogan climb up. We will then attach all the rope together. That way, we won't need to jump down."

The monster hunter activates several of his magical defenses before throwing himself down into the hole below. "Follow when you can!" he shouts, and as the party watches him drop, it takes all of a second before they hear him land... amidst the sounds of high-pitched, skittering metal upon metal.
Ari does not drop more than twenty feet before his metal boots land in a pile of coins, and he flips forward and rolls down the pile. With his protections up he suffers no injury whatsoever... although his landing and rolling does send coins scattering all across the stone floor of the underground chamber. The monster hunter quickly rolls to his feet, and with one hand upon the hilt of his sword, he glances quickly around the chamber. The sunshine from above illuminates the room to a certain extent, and thus Khalia and Rogan (hanging from their respective ropes) as well as the others above the well can all easily see the pile of coins in the chamber as well.
Everyone's eyes thus immediately fix upon the massive skeletal dragon reclining upon the pile of treasure in the center of the room. Ari pulls out his sword and the others are taken slightly aback... but it doesn't take a moment to confirm that the skeleton is, in fact, not moving. At least not yet.
The treasure beneath the dragon skeleton looks to be primarily coins of silver and gold, with a few weapons and suits of armor partially submerged within mounds of precious metals. Atop the pile, a string of orblike beads glows with a faint orange radiance, as if lit by a flame from within. Near the center of the chamber sits a low stone platform 3 feet high. Atop the platform, three circular disks are arranged in a triangular pattern.
OOC: All three ropes that were tied off are each long enough to drop completely to the floor of the underground chamber. So everyone can reach where Ari is without problem if they choose.

"It seems we don't need to attach ropes together. Khalia, Rogan, climb down. We will need at least one watch up here, in case the lizardfolks come back. I'll go down." Jango follows, using Ari rope. Once landing on the piles of coins, he looks around. As he sees the fiery beads necklace, he decide to cast a detct magic to see if there is anything magic. He will take time to identify the aura of each item as best as he can.

Ari keeps alert, and signals for the others to come down while heading to the two exits to see what he can see. Assuming nothing comes out at him, he ventures back to the pile, his eye on weapons and the light orbs.
"Too much to sort through now, but if there is anything we can use now, let's get it," he indicates to Jango. "Khalia, anything significant about the alter or the discs to your knowledge?"

Brother Donovan, human cleric
"I can stand guard up here if we want a lookout," Donovan says, moving to the tied off ends of the ropes. "I'm not much of a hider, but I can obviously make some noise if we have company," he adds, indicating his notably un-silent armor as he shifts position.
[sblock=OOC]Sorry, but I'm getting errors when I try to access my subscription lists, which is how I access the Rogue's thread. I believe Donovan has a range weapon, but I'm not sure what it is. I'm thinking crossbow? Anyway, he'll switch to that as he stands guard, which puts the mace on his waist and his shield at his feet for now (since crossbows take 2 hands to use).[/sblock]

Using the rope to climb down the rest of the way, Rogan lands softly and begins to scan the room ignoring the pile of coins and other treasures. "Any sign of what might have killed that thing?" The Daggerspell Guardian asks in reference to the skeleton.
