Dell looks at Barry: " Of course we could have our Dwarven Juggernaut smashing it - yes I mean you, Barry... awww, now stop frowning, man ! Juggernaut is a good thing, a strong thing ! - but first of all that wouldn't exactly be a discrete entrance into whatever party's happening on the other side, and secondly somehow I doubt even he can budge it. There seems to be magic at work, here..."
He turns to Velkyn and Grexx: "Any chance you two could work some whazz-a-ma-tazz, here ?". He points at the door with his thumb.
OOC: maybe either Dispell or even Detect Magic could help, guys ?

When you cast your spell at the door at first it seems like nothing happened. But then you try the door again it swings open for you. When you peek through the music stops, and you hear some distant screams.
Dell grins satisfyingly at the naked druid: "Well done, Grexxie !!! See ? Them evil magicians are just predictable, I tell you ! And what's with the screams now, for Methanar's sake !? And of course , laughs become screams when we dissipate the magic, that figures... Well, we may as well go find out what makes these people hurt like that. Or then again, maybe not !"
He stands there with both hands on his hips and looks questioningly at the others (except at Grexx's hairy private parts, which remain uncovered).

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Grexx steps forward. "You were right my companion! Well done! I just hope I did not cause the pain of these individuals because of the dispelling of magic. We must find out what has happend."
Grexx will drop his staff and command it to turn into it's giant snake form.
"Earl, stay close and protect us from enemies."
Grexx will begin to move quickly toward the screens. What does he see?
Past the door you see a long dark tunnel, the floors and wall are smooth white alabaster. In the far distance you can see a faint glow, possibly torchlight, and you can still hear far off talking and yelling.
Dell winks at Barry: "Somehow I don't reckon these noises come from our friends, Barry... I tell you what: you stay here and you get that big hammer of yours ready. I'm gonna go ahead with Velkyn and Grexx... I mean, the menagerie, here !", Dell says as he points at the large snake and saber-tooth tiger on both sides of the trio formed by Barry, Velkyn and himself, "We all have to be real quiet now. You too, right? You just stay here and wait for us to call for help. It's gonna be easy to tell: if you hear any of us calling 'Barry!', then you come running. Once you join us, you'll see if we're in danger or not. If you see we're fighting, you go and smash at whatever is trying to hurt us... just not the tiger here, or the snake, okay ? Ooookay."
Seeing Barry's lower lips starting to tremble slightly, he hurriedly adds: "But if you don't like to stay here all by yourself I'm sure Velkyn can keep you company. You'll just have to be both silent okay? No shouting or nothing like that unless we call you."
With that, he gives the rest of the group a level look. "Let's go, boys and beasts !" he declares grandly, before puffing up his chest and clicking his heels once, quickly rising up and melting into the obscurity of the ceiling up above.
OOC: not sure how easy this can be or how high this ceiling is, but his idea is to float up and along the ceiling with his Boots of Levitation - so probably using his hands for traction as they silently progress down the corridor- and stay hidden in the shadows above. Dell's plan is to have a forward party advancing stealthily to scout ahead for the source of the noise.

Barry and Velkyn take up positions on the other side of the doorway, ready to spring if there are any dangers.
Tigrexx and Earl make there way down the long hallway while Dell follows jut behind, gliding along the ceiling with his hands. After a short time of heading down the hallway, two things happen.
Dell - You notice all of the sudden that the Tiger and Snake below you are slowly dropping farther away from you.
Barry/Velkyn - You see that the hall on the other side of the doorway has split from the floor you're on and is rising into the air.
Barry you reach up as you approach the ceiling and grab the door frame. You struggle with all your might to push back the rising floor, Velkyn sees what your'e trying and attempts to help you.
Tigrexx you don't feel the floor slowly dropping away but you do notice when a sudden jolt slows it down. You look up and see that Dell is getting further away from you.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Dell, who was feeling pretty smug with his new boots at first, is getting more and more nervous as the ceiling keeps rising in the air. "I wonder what's gonna happen when this whole construction gets wherever it's supposed to get ?" , the rogue wonders idly, before coming to a conclusion: probably nothing good.
He quickly uncoils his rope and lets it dangle onto the floor level, calling out: "Somebody better grab this, lads ! Looks like we're in for a strange ride, here...!"
At the same time, he looks around for anywhere he could get a foothold and race himself, in case he needs to lift someone up off the floor.
OOC: No idea if Dell can actually lift anyone up with him while he levitates, or if they would end up dragging him back down towards the ground like a inflatable helium balloon, but I guess we'll find out pretty damn soon, won't we ?

The rattles a bit when you kick it. But it doesn't open.

"Unfortunately, I do not have the ability to detect but I will try to dispel whatever magic holds this door."
Grexx will cast Dispel Magic at the fourth level on the Door.
When you cast your spell at the door at first it seems like nothing happened. But then you try the door again it swings open for you. When you peek through the music stops, and you hear some distant screams.
Dell grins satisfyingly at the naked druid: "Well done, Grexxie !!! See ? Them evil magicians are just predictable, I tell you ! And what's with the screams now, for Methanar's sake !?

Grexx will begin to move quickly toward the screens. What does he see?
Perception: 19
Past the door you see a long dark tunnel, the floors and wall are smooth white alabaster. In the far distance you can see a faint glow, possibly torchlight, and you can still hear far off talking and yelling.
Grexx turns to the other, "It appears surprise is in our favor."
Grexx leans down to the snake, "Earl, I want you to stay close to Barry. If he attacks anything, I want you to attack it as well."
"Let us add to the surprise. I will be watching from the shadows."
Grexx will use [Tooltip Not Found] to transform into a Saber-Toothed Tiger from his homeland.
Hit Die Roll for Tiger: 38
Stealth Roll as Tiger: 7
Grexx will follow 30 feet behind everyone else.
Barry will look around confused at the situation "Is that our other friends? What are we doing?" he will then look to Dell for an order.
Dell winks at Barry: "Somehow I don't reckon these noises come from our friends, Barry... I tell you what: you stay here and you get that big hammer of yours ready. I'm gonna go ahead with Velkyn and Grexx...

Barry and Velkyn take up positions on the other side of the doorway, ready to spring if there are any dangers.

This is a side view of barry and Velkyn on ones side of the doorway, and the floor on the other side is rising up slowly
Barry would definitely try and get on it, he doesn't wanna get separated.
Velkyn hops on with you and the floor slows its rise but is still going up.
Dell you see them still lowering, but it slows for some reason.
Dell and Tigrexx give me Perception checks
Tigrexx Perception: 10
Is it possible for Barry to plant his feet and grab the top of the door frame to try and hold the hallway there?
27 Athletics if this is just a strength check it's a 22
If he isn't able to do it he won't let his fingers get pinched or caught before letting go.
Barry you reach up as you approach the ceiling and grab the door frame. You struggle with all your might to push back the rising floor, Velkyn sees what your'e trying and attempts to help you.
Tigrexx you don't feel the floor slowly dropping away but you do notice when a sudden jolt slows it down. You look up and see that Dell is getting further away from you.

Is the hallway still moving or has Barry stopped it on his end? If he stopped it Barry will continue to hold it until told otherwise.
In between grunts Barry will belt out "WE COULD RUN BACK THE OTHER WAY ISN'T MOVING!"
