You stare down to the body of a kobold, half decayed and formerly animated as a zombie. It's legs have been tied together with a strange blue rope; that leads back to the body of a human, it's throat bitten out.
The room is lit from torches high upon the walls. You can see through the small slits in the ceilings and higher walls, that the goblin horde has already chosen their viewing spots and are ready for the show.
The door behind you is unlocked, the wall by the door has become unstable from some past assault; with parts of the wall crumpled and fallen, showing some of the next room. Beyond that the chamber is bare, except for a small chair in the corner; sitting infront of an empty bookshelf.
You can hear the heroes beginning to stir on the other side of the metal door, that blocks off the 'safe' area, where they rest and recover each night; if they can make it back in time before the door closes.
A long metallic scrapping noise can be heard beyond the door, like something big and metal is slowly sliding down the angled entrance shaft. This can only mean new prey, likely some armored soldier, and that soon the door will open.
Mr.Giggles sneaks to the door, and stands aside before it opens. He gives a small chuckle to himself ,too quiet to be heard, and moves out of the way before it opens. He thinks to himself one thing- bloodshed. New meat. Finally. He sits there, and watches in the corner, not to be seen, lying still. (If needed, Stealth:17). As the new adventurers come out, he watches each one with pin-point precision to gauge their skill. (Insight:14) His pin is lying on the floor, and he wears no clothes, as to stay invisible (unless ruled that the pin would be invisible with me)
The Goblin drums begin to play, quiet at first, but soon they drown out all sound as hundreds of goblins join in. This means that the Goblin King's message will begin soon; and then the doors will open.
The drums suddenly stops and the Goblin King's message plays, though you've never been able to hear it through the metal door. Moments later the door slowly rises, and you can hear the words; "Damn, he didn't make it afterall." from a female voice speaking in common.
As the door opens, you see the familiar reddish glow from a pillar in the room. Beyond it appears seven humanoids. A large horned one lays beneath a tattered blanket, trying to continue sleeping. An orange furred tabaxi stands near a purple skinned tiefling, both ready for a fight. Past them is another tabaxi, this time in red fur; that is just getting out of their cot. In the back is an eight foot tall warforged, with a small gnome and a blue skinned man before them.
The tiefling says; "I ain't dying for anyone's entertainment but my own... Wait that didn't come out right!"
The horned one, you've met before; she's a minotaur working on your side. She lures the heroes to their deaths, and the Goblin King keeps the local Orc tribe from invading her village.
The orange tabaxi is very strong and hot tempered; you saw her slice through a goblin's face just yesterday.
The female tiefling slowly moves to the door, checking each corner, before stepping in and moving towards the wall; looking through the holes into the room beyond. She appears to be scouting out the next area. You notice yellow mist like energy swirling around her right hand.
The red furred tabaxi says; "Well, we might as well get them out there; before they get us in here." Moving into the room behind the tiefling.
The massive warforged readies for combat; but doesn't advance. The gnome continues to stare at the forged and the blue skinned man says; "Are we sure that there are no traps?"
Mr.Giggles will now take the time to view all their equipment, what they have, to Evaluate what they can do. (So, for example, Battle Axe and no Armor, Daggers and Leather, a Wand, etc. )
The tiefling is wearing leather armor, and has two daggers and a light crossbow at her side, plus whatever that yellow mist around her hand is. She is currently looking into the other room, probably at the altar of shadow; though she won't be able to see any of the living shadows in there.
The red furred tabaxi near her is waiting near the door. It is armed only with it's claws, but they are powerful claws no less.
The warforged that follows them into the room is a massive 8ft tall, too big to get through most of the dungeon's doorways without squeezing, and his large shield and handaxe appear attached to his body.
You know that the minotaur is a fallen paladin, so she uses her abilities when needed and her horns when necessary. You are glad she's on your side, and she's usually the last out to ensure maximum kills for the Horde. Her name is Uovava.
The orange furred tabaxi is much like the other one, though more hesitant to walk into your room. The blue man is definitely new; you would have recognized something that... unusual in appearance. He looks unarmed and unarmored, like most of them. The gnome has some small blades and a gnome designed crossbow, tiny scales make up his armor.
The warforged, opens the doorway to the next room; squeezing through it, before setting up guard in the room of the shadow shrine; leaving the door open behind them, for others to follow.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Mr.Giggles runs to the door, and slams it shut, locking it if he can. He then bolts back to the corner and hides.
Stealth:12
Now, who were these? Hmm.... only weapons are claws? Red Cat Monk. Magic and armor? Tiefling warlock. Shield and Handaxe? Barbarian? Maybe, but no use for his integrated armor. Barbarian or Paladin. Crossbows and armor... hm.. Ranger? No pouch though... hm. More research. Meanwhile, Blue is obviously a Wizard. Yellow Tabaxi is cautious, uses weapons however. Rogue, maybe? No matter. They’ll Die anyway.
The door is destroyed by the tiefling, as the yellow mist around her hand blasts into it. She asks; "You okay big guy? You were flailing around at the air."
The warforged beyond the doorway spends a few moments magically healing itself, laying its hands upon the wounds on its legs. It then states; "I have restored myself - but unfortunately, I can not repeat that feat anytime soon - I would very much like to dispatch whatever lurks here."
You notice when its hands moved, that the damage wasn't fully repaired; though the remaining damage is little.
From the other room you hear the female minotaur call out from her cot; "Oh, watch out for the shadows; they will kill you."
The blue skinned man replies; "What? Why didn't you warn us earlier!?" He then moves into the room with you. The orange furred tabaxi rushes up to the red furred one; and readies her guard for combat.
At this moment the warforged is still in the shrine to the Shadow God room, this room has you, the red and orange furred tabaxis, the blue man, and the tiefling, and Ouvana is currently alone with the gnome in their chamber.
You make your way around the quickly filling room, moving towards your target prey. The gnome finally makes his way into the room, heading over to the warforged.
He says, very quickly; "Givemeyourweapon!!" He reaches up towards the longsword in the forged's hand. This makes you pause a moment, sure that the weapon was a handaxe, not a sword. The gnome continues; "Icantemporarilyupgradeit, sothatyoumaybetterdefendyourselfagainstany futurethreats!!" He then draws and loads his crossbow.
The purple tiefling replies; "Please... talk... slowly." To which the audience finally gets involved saying; "Yeah, we can't understand you!" Followed by a flood of laughter radiating down from countless cracks in the ceiling.
The yellow mist reforms around her hand, as she points it towards the ceiling; but soon lowers it, saying; "Instead of standing around, we should do something. Everyone stay alert." She then looks around. She spots something in the shrine room and causes something else to explode; sounds like it was stone this time.
You are almost in position to strike, when Ouvana finally pull herself out of bed. She stands 6ft, with three foot horns and long white fur. "Guess I'm not getting anymore rest today. She yawns, cracks her knuckles, and heads into your room.
She stops at the body of the zombie kobold. "Oh Eadoo, it looks like you had to wait to meet your God. At least you are at rest now." She bends over and retrieves a large tooth necklace, with holy symbols upon it. As she is pulling it away; suddenly the zombie springs to life, grabbing the minotaur's arm.
The tiefling says; "There it is! Kill it!" The mist again reforms around her hand, as she points out the danger in the shrine room.
While all these sudden things are occurring, the gnome somehow attaches a few tesla coil looking things to the warforged's weapon, winds some wires around it, and flips a switch. It then crackles to life, electricity coursing over it before he hands back the weapon.
The warforged heads deeper into the shrine room, attacking the shadows once more. The sounds of lightning echoes through the rooms. "Your corruption can not touch me! Your weakness shall not stain me! I am Warforged! I am your doom!" The warforged's voice booms through the space - it's words are loud but clear, each one clipped and practiced - but utterly devoid of any inflection or emotion. The effect is off putting and uncomfortable. It adds; "LIGHT! We need Light to drive back these shadows. Which of you can bring forth light? Do it now!"
"I'm a little busy right now!" Ouvana says, struggling not to be bitten by her former friend. The blue skinned man says; "I can hel..." His words cut off as blood splatters across the wall from his throat, slashed out by your claws. At least half his neck is missing as his body crumbles to the ground.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Mr.Giggles will now sneak back in silence to his corner in the room with the shadows, hoping they will think the Kobold Zombie did it, as he whispers to the friendly Minotaur (whom I assume is the one fighting the zombie) tell them the zombie got him.

Mr.Giggles smirks. He’s done his job. He lies in silence, for the next opportunity to strike. He also giggles to himself. Eadoo? What kind of name is that?
