(OOC-ish. Those out of telepathy range started coming over from hearing a commotion. Are telepathic messages still being sent? How much detail? For when we get in range to "hear")
2 arrows fly in through the front door, each striking the two humans, most likely they are not going to listen to you after that.. Kumiko then hears foots step quickly move away from the doorway.
No one saw the shooter of the arrows. They are concealed or invisible, even with Darkvision. They also left no footprints or scent (Pass w/o Trace).
Guile finds an area near the stairs that looks like something has been moved here, possibly a secret door in the floor.
The humans rush forward and attack Aegnor, hitting 3 times for 6, 10 & 3 hp (total 19 hp) of damage (Spears). Aegnor notices that the humans are wearing goggles similar to what Vanja pick up to help her see in the dark.
Vanja is next, then Kitsune (effectively blinded until a light source is present), Ravager and finally Aegnor.
Aegnor says, "We gave you a chance. You chose poorly."
I believe I have advantage with Luna 5ft from the human too.
Eldritch blast Beam #1 Attack Human target: 14! Damage: 11
Eldritch blast Beam #2 Attack Human target: 22! Damage: 7
Shadow’s attack Human with advantage: 22! Damage: 12 :Roll DC 13 STR or be knocked prone
Creature to save or be knocked prone: 17
OOC-I rolled the second Eldritch damage in the game log and pasted into the quote. The Prone save roll is not accurate as I don't know the Humans + to save on Str. You'll need to roll that if necessary. Shadow not Luna...grin.
The last human goes down as Shadow brings him down and rips his throat out. Your group now has about 7 rounds to determine your actions before the temple is swarmed with responding guards (and their questions).
"It was like this.....Guile invited me to check on Arnel....We get inside the library here and he's sitting with a grin on his face. He goes on about how we are being set up for the slave escape that was going to be a farse. Arnel made it happen for real though. Guile, Shadow and I decided to beat the crap out of Arnel to get to make sure he's telling the truth. Just as we're getting started Arnel goes invisible. We hear some folks getting ready to come in. 3 humans who where shocked and said Hey this isn't the way it was suppose to go. Three individuals come in behind them who cast hold person on them. A Fake Rog, Gema and Bridgette. The Rog Fake kills one of the humans in two blows. I Attacked the other two fakes and one loses concentration (the Fake Bridgette one) and one of them pops a bead and disappears and the fake Gema cast something on itself and Rog and they disappear. Then the humans save from the hold spell, and I tell them to help us out or die. Guile, Shadow and I fight the two humans that were left killing them. It was a blur I think someone approached the door...We think Arnel was on the level and was really trying to get us off the hook, but we're not positive. Arnel wanted all of us to make a diversion with the guards so he could finish the slave escape I think. There was a gold band and 2 red bands maybe more I can't remember. High level stuff. They're pissed we're doing a good job and they might lose they're positions/ranks or something I think. Guile can probably fill in any missing parts. I'd say speak with the dead might help us prove our story and zone of truth might help if the ones responsible are found. I'm up for suggestions though as we have guards coming to figure this all out."

After Ravager (She was the only one I rolled a 20 on for an off screen Arcane/History Check) hears Aegnor's explanation, she realizes that Arnel must be a Gloom Stalker, which would explain why he was invisible to Darkvision but not in light. Guile guesses that the fake personas were using Disguise Self spells. Guile knows there is a secret passage connected to the stairs,
Bridgette and Gema will arrive in 4 rounds, everyone else is now on site, Rog's wolves are currently outside (unless he wants them inside with him.) The guards will arrive 5 rounds after that.
Kumiko will move 15ft into the hallway and hide behind a pillar so that she ambush the next enemy that steps foot into her vicinity.
Stealth: 4
Initiative: 10
The black knight just returned from training when he heard a noise from the temple. "Hmm? Where's everyone going all of a sudden? What's going on?"

(OOC no, some unknown source fired the arrows from the front door right in front of Kumiko, then was heard running away...)
Cats go Moo!
Guile will head to where he heard the sounds of the escaping prisoners and search for the secret door.
