"Wait, people are trapped there?" Holth asks. It takes him around 2 seconds, but afterward he puts his hands to the sides of his face and goes "OH NOOOO, caves are very dangerous, and anyone left behind may be horribly injured and close to death! If any of them die, I'll have nightmares for weeks!" Holth immediately dashes past everyone not running, screaming "Ill save youuuuu..." as he dissapears into the inky void. He is 6,4 by the way.
Cyrus Shadowblade, what some may call a "variant human," though more than likely, would just call him a "strange, even for a human." He was a fighter, by trade, and had recently learned about the specialties of being an Echo Knight. That, and becoming a proficient Sentinel had been some highlights in this otherwise chaotic world. The first time he summoned his Echo, he was working with a party for a quick shot, and learned what it was by an old vet, when he had wanted to go ahead, and look for any traps to trigger, when suddenly, a Shadow-but-not-a-Shadow went forward, and triggered a trap. Mentally, he jumped, but was surprised to learn he suffered no pain.
The explosion rocked him out of his reminiscing, and after making sure to drop the (mostly) clean(ish) plate, he proceeds to the mine, and sees what transpires. He sees several people go in...and he's hesitant, as he really prefers to scout for issues, beforehand. He hasn't advanced enough to send Echos ahead for scouting...and without a current party to trust, so not having anyone to guard him, sending the Echo for that would leave him vulnerable.
"Ah...Blood & Ashes! Well, wouldn't be the first time, and hopefully won't be the last...but if it is, it'd probably be better than dying the death of 1,000 wedgies!"
"you too? well, let's get on with this then, into the mines"

I hold my lantern up and forward, glancing at the two bickering people. "This is no time to argue! Lives are at stake! Is anyone here familiar with these tunnels? A guide or a map would be very helpful!"

"Gerald, is it? I'm Cyrus. Unless they cause us issue, I suggest we ignore the bickering. I've just come into my Echo. While I can't yet use them to explore beyond my sight and relay info for scouting, I can generate them with about 15 feet of me, out to 30. So, we can use them to see if there's any pitfalls or immediate danger, as they're essentially objects, and they're immune to, well, just about anything."

Bekhan stretches a bit, then follows in behind. Keeping an eye out for collapsed tunnels.
I don't have a signature.

cakra follows the party while using his dagger to carve something and his face relaxes
