Bastion nods as options open up. Still speaking quietly to avoid being heard through the door he says, "Sounds good. Avan, summon whatever you think can take a bit of abuse. We'll let the summoned creature go first by a few moments and take the brunt of whatever they have ready and waiting, then everyone who can teleport pops to the other side at once. It will probably take several people to move that bar in a hurry, so I suggest that I stand guard while the rest of you open the door. I should be able to delay them by a few moments at least. Everyone go ahead and buff up, this should be our last fight for today. Kix, stay ready with that wand, chances are pretty decent at least some of them will still be clumped up to the sides when it opens. Is everyone agreed?"
OK I will need to know exactly what everyone is doing. Who is going through to the other room and who is going to try and open the door. Then I will update the game.
Kix is following Bastion's instructions. Not moving into the room until the majority has and the door is unbarred.

“Can you tell me the difference between a witch and a wizard?" "Sure, a wizard is what they call you when they want to hire you, and a witch is what they call you when they're getting ready to run you out of town.” SunWolf replied ― Barbara Hambly, The Witches of Wenshar
Avan begins preparations. He focuses for a second and his mouth begins to protrude as hair grows over his body. His items meld into his new form as he stands on all fours and transforms into a Black Bear. Going over to his Jackal he casts Barkskin as a shared spell so that it affects the both of them - it's strange seeing an animal mimicking spellcasting movements, but Avan can do it.
He moves to the door at the point at which it opens such that it can swing open freely without being in the way and the large jackal occupies an area directly behind him. He lies down on the floor, peeking below the door. He can just see the target location, where the floor meets the opposite wall (N60). Perhaps if the enemies all rush in, with the wall against the summon's back, they will have trouble flanking it.
He begins his chant and waves his arms above him, wasting his Mass Resist Energy to cast Summon Nature's Ally III instead. After a few seconds a Lion appears on the other side, searching for targets to pounce on.
Whoever leads the breach of the door either via Teleportation or whatever will get the dual spells of Bless and Protection from Evil then Ghanima will fall back to the rear, not the last person mind you, just near the back. She will be watching behind them with whoever is back there crossbow at the ready.
Bastion will pop through as described right after the lion is summoned. If there's no enemies in the immediate area, or the others are having significant trouble with the door, he will turn and help them open it. Otherwise he will ready himself to defend the rest.
Katharina gets down in the floor to be able to see under the door. She makes a motion with her hands and a shadowy cloud covers her. The cloud then shrinks down until it disappears. The same cloud appears just on the other side of the door. It dissipates and Katharina stands there. She rushes over beside Rivoril to assist him with the bar.
Rivoril, Katharine and Bastion move into the room as a Lion if formed in the room. You see a small room with one burnt body leaning against a doorway. The Lion does not see any hostile creatures The bar is soon lifted and the door open. Map is updated.
Rivoril, will wait for all to enter the room first. Then proceed to check out the doors. Starting with the door located at L57 as usual checking if it is locked. Listening whats behind door. Unlocking, door if necessaryBut not opening it. All, the while doing it in a stealthy manner.
Steeping into the room (K63), Kixarn looks around at the evidence of the intense fireballs but the single body and sighs. "I thought there were far many enemies to burn. Should have stopped with one wand cast. Save the power for big groups, not one."
With the aid of his raven, he looks and listens towards the Southern door, still ready with the wand. (Looking from K63, still) "Maybe more that way?"
OOC- If there are multiple enemies coming or a lot of arrow fire from that direction, he has a line of sight to M70 if it opens and will launch a fireball into that center. If it's not that deep, I'll choose a different action.
“Can you tell me the difference between a witch and a wizard?" "Sure, a wizard is what they call you when they want to hire you, and a witch is what they call you when they're getting ready to run you out of town.” SunWolf replied ― Barbara Hambly, The Witches of Wenshar
"There were more than just that one in here. Chances are you at least singed the rest of them before they escaped. Now we just need to finish the job." Bastion stands ready with his shield by the door as Rivoril checks it out. Once everyone's ready for action again, He'll move to engage whatever lies beyond.
Katharina takes advantage of the momentary quiet to meditate briefly. After doing so she feels refreshed and ready for whatever comes next. She readies her kukris once again and waits for the door to be opened. Her green eyes sparkle at the thought of more combat.
Ooc: She uses a standard action to regain her shadow jaunt maneuver. She moves to K57 and checks for any sign of enemies.
Once, Rivoril is satisfied that the door is unlocked and/or no danger is present on the other side. He will wait on Bastion's nod of approval to actually open the door wide so all can enter the room.
The bear that was formerly Avan passes by Rivoril on the way to the north door, jackal shadowing every step behind him. He scratches the door and roars softly, ruining any surprise we might have had, while staring at Rivoril slowly moving to not make a sound. If one could read a bear's expression, it would be mild annoyance at the brief disorder in the party, what with Kixarn pointing his wand at the wrong door (though it is wise to cover the party's back), Katharina (seemingly) zoned out, Arilynia focused on the body instead of the door, and the summoned lion exactly where it was low to the ground looking left and right for prey. Dammit, that strong beast is only here for a short time, he thinks to himself, I should've told everyone that before transforming!
It would have taken just one move action for them to both be where they wanted: Avan (N57), Jackal (M58-N59), and Avan is trying to convince the lion to come closer to the door by motioning with a paw and whimpering.
The door to the north is not locked and can be opened easily. When Rivoril opens the door the party is met with arrows fired from a small group of five Ogres. These are the big great bows that Ogres use. I will need initiative rolls from every one plus combat rolls as they were waiting for you to open the door. They get one surprise round due to the fact that you had to open the door and then attack.
How many rounds passed out of the 6 that my summoned lion remains? Where was he when we started and could he charge into any of them with his 40' movement?
Kix, hears the shouts of surprise as the foes are seen at the North door, and he turns slightly in that direction, still wary of another group coming from the South. As the arrows fly, he casts a Sleep spell at one of the further foes, trying to send it down!
Initiative 8
Regular Sleep spell on the furthest of them he can reach, then keep watch for the other door, just in case. If it opens at all, in goes the fireball, as deep as he can send it, so that none of the fireball explodes into the main room.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Expecting trouble ahead Ghanima stays ready with her crossbow near the rear and expends a turning to activate divine vigor for 6 temp hp for 3 minutes.
Result: 1d20 (17) - 1 Total: 16
From her angle she'll have to either wait to get a shot off or slip closer along the wall to get in range to heal. 2 attack rolls, just in case.

When, given the all clear Rivoril will activate his anklet of teleportation to the other side of the door and attempt to lift the bar over the door.
