I plan on living forever. Or die trying.
It is not holding them back now. It is only 1 per round at the moment...but we need to close it quickly.
@MetaVoid , you can wake Darfin, right?
@Kobold Stew Can Tommi remove the shackles?

Unlikely to remove the in this situation (can they be picked? smashed?), but he can drag Darfin's body out if we want to begin a strategic retreat. Whether we then come back for Shelandra, and block this passage from one side to another is a separate question. Stopping or blocking the source-portal first, seems crucial.

I should warn you that they can move far faster than one per round. Three came through this round (though only one charged, the others spent time trying to figure out where they were in the darkness bubble). Once they can communicate "just run through it"... a LOT more can come. This will happen SOON.
Post#2022 "Shalendra waved her hand and spoke elvish words of magic, and the door slid open, revealing a broad, circular chamber. The walls seemed to flicker or shift, but Tommi couldn't quite make out what he was looking at.
Shalendra took him by the shoulders and moved him to the center of the room. She told him to close his eyes for a moment, relax, and then open them. He did and he saw that the walls shifted to show vistas that could only belong to other places: On one side was a hall where stone trees (pillars perhaps) wove together to form an arching canopy; on the other side, a field of fire and a river of lava; Ahead were the gates of a ruined castle, built on a lonely hill. The outer wall was almost entirely ruined, but the inner walls and towers stood, though battered by many wars and years of neglect."
It seems whatever one does to control the portals is done from the center of the circular room.

Thanks for that, FitzThe Ruke.
Wow... that post was more than 9 months ago. No wonder nobody could remember it. Well, I guess that it is only Tommi that would know this information so it is up to him, right? Lionel will do something else instead of sniffing a portal.
EDIT: Titus would know this too since he was there with Tommi. Maybe Titus will regain consciousness and run into the room and save the day. How cool would that be???

@Kobold Stew, why is Tommi leaving the room? Tommi will need to be in the centre of the portal room to de-activate them, not to do that in the statue room.
He's taking an action in the centre of the room. And if he needs to stay he can do. Really, he's leaving so that there's not another corpse to rescue -- there are enough bodies lying about, and he's going to be unconscious in the coming turn. I'm of course open to revising things.
I was trying to give the information Tommi knew before he collapses.

Why didn't he just put the fire out?
Cause it's magic and requires a CON save?
And I wanted to use my action to help the group and possibly close the portal?
Obviously we are all working with limited information, and doing our best. If we knew darfin was unconcious, I would have engaged with him instead, but I think he's awake (semi conscious), and so we might get a clue here.

I think you've fused two rooms. The statue is in the room that you fought Titus in (where the two of you stood guard through much of the night). You're relatively familiar with that room. This room is down a long tunnel from that one (doors at both ends). It's empty of stuff (getting fuller of orcs). When Shalendra showed it to you, she got you to stand in the center of the room and look about. Yes, perhaps he can close the portals from there. Might be easier to do if he knew much about magic. I guess he knows a little, what with his stones... gimme an Arcana check, even if you're untrained.
