This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Closing the door the party hears a resounding thunk of metal in wood. A Gnoll got a lucky spear shot in the door that more than likely could have hit a party member. The jungle looms ahead now as the door behind grows over with vegetation blocking it off from view. As the party stands now in the ominous jungle they once again hear a growl and see movement in the undergrowth as suddenly a panther springs out from its hiding place attacking Gen! Pouncing on her from the undergrowth ambush DEX save DC12. Gen's save 7. She fails and is knocked prone!

As the door closes Nelburn relaxes for a split second, right before the panther leaps from the undergrowth atop Gen. Grapsing his warhammer in both hands the dwarf charges towards the panther letting the hammer swing out behind him ready to strike. As he strides towards the beast a ringing sound begins to build and he shouts almost gleefully “Here little kitty, come play with Ol’ Nel here instead!” before striking the cat with a booming blade.
Tobias charges at the beast that had pounced on the druid. He glances down to Gen assessing her condition. "Are you okay?!"Before getting his answer he strikes with his axe, glowing with divine power should it connect.
Garrett relaxes after the panther is killed. His concern immediately returns after seeing the door they came through cover over in vines.
"Well that's a bit disconcerting, but at least the gnolls can't get to us. Now to see if this might be a safe place to rest or will we just wake up covered in vines ourselves?"
With his sword drawn he looks around the room trying to hear and see.
Nelburn nods in agreement with Garret and turns to Flint, still maintaining his concentration on the levitate spell, and says “Lad, this enchantment’s still got plenty of time left. You wanna float up and see what you can from up high?”
The vegetation around the party is too thick to really make out a lot. You will need to hack your way through it to make sense of where you are and where your headed.

“Hmmm....I think we are going to need more help in here” Nam says to himself as he reaches into his bag of tricks.

He pulls out a small ball of fur and tosses it on the ground. Out of the ball grows a baboon. As soon as it is fully grown he tells it to go scout for other predators and report back.
"Perhaps someone with a keen eye can confirm her assumption," Tobias suggests to the group, but looks to Nelburn and Garrett to see if this is something they are up for. He turns his attention back to the foliage to be ready should anything else emerge from the jungle.
He looks on curiously as Nam produces a baboon. "If we're looking to take a rest, then we need to stop opening doors," he offers after a moment to everyone matter-of-factly.
As a baboon appears at Nams bequest Nelburn looks over quizzically as the ape strides off “Interesting Long ears. Neat trick that one, you be able to teach me that one sometime?”
As he finishes he kneels down and opens a section of his pack and out shoots a weasel. “Come on Gingred, you’ve a good nose. Go have a look and see what’s nearby fella.” With that the weasel darts off into the jungle.

Nel's blow misses, the wizard pulling back seeing he would strike Gen being mauled by the beast!

(DM: You don't give flanking bonus, correct?)
*correct*
Tobias cuts the panther in half as Gen trembles her arms cut by the panther's claws.
"It...it was possessed," Gen says getting up and panting.
Initiative over. Post at will.

Tobias offers a hand to Gen as she gets to her feet. "And how do you know it was possessed? And what may it have been possessed by?"
"There was no reasoning with it," Gen explains looking at the animal and crouching beside it.
*cough* investigate the corpse *cough*

"You watch the jungle then Tobias, I'll check out the big cat."
Garrett moves back and kneels down by the panther and inspects the body looking for anything that might indicate what was wrong with the beast.

Garrett can see the panther is dead...again.

"It looked possessed," Gen repeats herself as Jinx returns to her staff.
Nam roll me an investigation check for the baboon, Mr. Pickles? I'm going with that.

Garrett considers what he has seen before coming to a conclusion.
"The creature was undead. Isk was able to feel the presence of the undead."
Calling to Tobias,
"Can you do the same Tobias? Can you feel the presence of the undead?"
