Seeing Leo raise his warhammer, Pan let's out an "Oh!" and looks away, taking small, quick steps towards the stairs. He is very determined not to look back or imagine what the cultist's brain looks like... "Damn it!"
Using the low light as cover, Pori gives Leo a lingering look, attempting to size up the dwarf and his actions. Under his breath and to no one in particular, A simple no would have sufficed.
Pori falls in line with the rest of the group giving some distance between Leo and himself, attempting to be as stealthy as possible.
Pan rummages through his backpack and brings out a crowbar. "I've got a crowbar, but no muscle to back it. Here!" He throws the item to Leo, not wanting to get close to the corpse.
As the group gathers around the door, looking for some way to get passed that lock they hear a guttural noise from the other side.
Just as the noise ends Ingrid hears a distinct click coming from the release of the lock mechanism. The door opens in a creaking noise.
Crowbar in hand Pan sees a huge and tentacled monster lumbering on in the chamber beyond. It hasn't seen anyone yet and there are opened doors leading the other ways.
Not wanting to get close to the , whatever it is, Leo stores his hammer and takes out a javelin , waiting a moment for everyone else to get ready, before he hauls the weapon at the monstrosity.
Ingrid will carefully move toward the back of the group, nod at Hauttrag on her way past and indicate that he should try for a surprise attack. Once she’s behind others, ahe’ll pull out her crossbow and fire on the beast at the same moment everyone else attacks
Anxious about another fight and unsure what they are facing this time, Lori’s shot is wide of the target. Pori is starting to question his decision to be an adventurer and any grandiose fantasies of avenging his parents. All the stories he has heard and his reading never made it out to be so difficult to fight.
“Leo’s got a point - this passageway goes a long way, and I bet his bosses will know more than he does. Or did.”
“Come on everyone, let’s press on - quietly as we can”

Leo starts to search the corpse for some keys for the locked door. Investigation (18)
”Does anyone got a crowbar or maybe some more delicate tools to open the door?”
Pan rummages through his backpack and brings out a crowbar. "I've got a crowbar, but no muscle to back it. Here!" He throws the item to Leo, not wanting to get close to the corpse.
“I might be able to pick the lock - let me try that first”

Nikkoli just hangs back, curiously watching what everyone's doing.

You concentrate your attacks on the creature. It buckles in pain and stumbles but rights itself rather quickly.
One of his tentacles reaches for the roof to anchor itself. The others two sweep through the small room trying to hit.
Init is 5 for the creature. It is hurt.
All but Nikko and Pan can move.
