Thorn finds no traps on the door and can hear no activity beyond it. There is no lock on the door. At least nothing visible from this side. Having done all she can, Thorn nods to Adrian, who takes a breath and opens the door. Beyond is a room larger than the one you are in perhaps 35 feet on a side. There is a 15' wide opening in the north wall. Though it is difficult to see from your current vantage it does not appear very deep, perhaps 15 or 20 feet. The broken frames of several beds lie scattered about this large room . Two of the more serviceable ones have been pushed together to make a larger sleeping pallet. A table and several chairs also occupy the center of the room. A demonic figure the size of a large man with batlike wings, horns, glowing eyes, and fangs dominates the room, obviously expecting you. He is 10' inside the room holding an aspergillum dripping with some foul liquid and glowing with magic. He speaks in guttural tongue of the Abyss.

OOC: Let's have an initiative and perception form everyone. If you beat 18 on initiative you may act. No surprise on either side.
OOC: You may also try knowledge (the planes) to determine more about your foe.
[sblock=perception 20-26]A difference in texture suggests there may be a door in the recessed area to the north. [/sblock]
[sblock=perception 27-30]Read 20-26 above. A Ghoul is very carefully hiding to either side of the door waiting to flank those who enter. [/sblock]
[sblock=perception 31+]Read the other two entries as well. There are two more ghouls hiding in the recessed area to the north near the door.[/sblock]
[sblock=knowledge religion 15-20]The demon thing bears the holy symbol of he carrion-stenched demon lord Kabriri (pronounced ka-BREE-ree) the patron of Golarion's flesh hungry, cannibalistic ghouls. [/sblock]
[sblock=knowledge religion 20+]This is likely a hybrid of human and Nabasu--a powerful demon created from the souls of gluttons cannibals, blood-drinkers, and those who prefer the tang of undead flesh. These terrible creatures can consume bodies whole much like a snake to gain power and are known to create Ghouls with a mere glance. They have the usual demonic immunities and resistance to spells.
