"Eh, just some family relic that got stolen. Which I'm gonna guess has their name or symbol on it."Narrakas scoffs. "Either way, I'm sure it'll be easy enough to spot once we're down there, as the wannabe gobs that took it probably put it someplace rather choice, but not too too choice as to stand out over any other personal, eh... treasures that weren't I'll gotten.... though, I suppose what is any treasure worth having that isn't ill-gotten in some way."He adds with a smirk before stepping up and beginning the trek inside: creepy vibes and unnatural chill be damned.
Before getting too far down however, he turns back to the others and says, "Make sure one of ya has a torch or two burning. 'cause even if ya can see in the dark like I can, I rather not miss the darn thing 'cause of a few lost details in the gloom."

As the mausoleum door groans open, the adventurers' gaze pierces the gloom to reveal a dimly lit chamber dominated by a towering marble sarcophagus at its center. Shadows cling to the walls like malevolent spirits, their edges alive with faint movement.
Seeing the gloom, Narrakas turns back to Mardigan with an 'I told you so' sort of look, before looking expectantly to Eldon. But with the mage either unable or too caught up in his thoughts to provide the magic in the moment, the goblins just huffs and gets his own torch lit up in the meantime. "Let's just get this over with. Shadows here are starting to freak me out a might too much more than I'd prefer."He'd said bluntly before continuing down the passage with a shield in one hand, torch in the other, and eyes peeled as he scouted the way ahead.

The party advances cautiously into the granite vault, the flickering flames of Narrakas' torch casting shifting shadows that dance along the walls. Suddenly, the darkness seems to come alive, as if stirred by some unseen force. From the depths of the shadows, a writhing mass of centipedes emerges, their countless legs skittering across the cold stone floor. With a collective hiss, the swarm surges forward, a chittering horde of venomous mandibles and clicking pincers, intent on engulfing the adventurers in a tide of insectoid fury.
Mads strains to recall anything about centipede swarms, but the sight of their writhing mass proves too distracting. His mind, clouded by the horror unfolding before him, fails to conjure any useful information, leaving him grasping at shadows in a futile effort to remember.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Narrakas grin of delight at the sheer smorgasbord of crunchy delights quickly turned to the beginnings of fear as the horde descended upon the group! "Heyheyheyhey! Back yet delights! I said back!"He demanded while waving his torch about and trying to maneuver past the worse squirming throng.

In continuing his frantic attempts to ward off the biters, Narrakas waded deeper into the creep to get out to the other side of the horde. "That's it! Narrakas cook you goodsy now!" He declared as his body began to subtly take a more bestial quality before he brings his torch down to bear upon the horde of bugs.
1st Action: Stride deeper into tomb/until not within Centipede Swarm.
2nd Action: Enter a Rage, gaining 4 Temp Hp.
3rd Action: Lash Out at Centipede Swarm! (Melee,Lethal)Torch - Attack: 16 Damage: 3 of non-magical bludgeoning(includes rage) plus 1 Fire Damage. (OOC: Torch was a little unclear if it included your strength mod, so I left that out. But if it would, add another +3 to the above damage roll)

Narrakas swings his torch in a desperate arc, aiming to strike the writhing swarm, but his efforts miss their mark. The flame dances through the air, casting erratic shadows as it fails to connect with any of the elusive centipedes.
((DOH!))
Lady Othmor would have described the relic as an amulet wrought from blackened iron, adorned with ancient, swirling runes.

Mardigan glances over to Eldon. Do we need a torch? or do you have one of them magical light spells?

Initiative:
Mad Mardigan -> Centipede Swarm -> Narrakas -> Eldon -> Fizkilk

OOC 1st action I guess is a recall knowledge, I've never fought a swarm b4
12 nature?
2nd action thinking fire might be better here Mardigan will spark up a torch
(just had a thought that pulling out a torch and lighting it might be 2 actions in which case disregard the attack rolls)
and 3rd try to burn as many as I can... 14 attack ... if hits 9
((Depends on your source of fire. If you use [Flint and Steel](https://2e.aonprd.com/Equipment.aspx?ID=21), you need at least 3 actions (after drawing the torch and the flint and steel). If you want to be faster, use a [Tindertwig](https://2e.aonprd.com/Equipment.aspx?ID=138). If you want a torch that lights up in an instant, you buy [Sunrods](https://2e.aonprd.com/Equipment.aspx?ID=137))) - from a useful subreddit https://www.reddit.com/r/Pathfinder2e/s/7eErvTRy4n
