OTC opens the set of double doors into a large, dusty smelling room. Using her senses and feeling around she discovers what was probably the master bedroom. Theres a large four post bed, a fireplace, a rotting tiger-skin rug in the floor.
Rajiira would shrug, and say "As you desire. In any case, this one believes we should get moving. So..." Rajiira then walking to the 'secret' entrance in the attic the children had pointed out, stowing her weapons, as they likely had a long climb down.
Rajiira head to the storage room where Thrash found the trunk. Against the back wall is a large mirror covered in a sheet. Moving it aside she sees a hidden panel in the wall that when opened leads to a tight spiral staircase that heads down into the dark.
Thrash is stay VERY close to Rajiira, constantly jumping and gasping at every spiderweb and shadow as he moves through the room. "I... I don't know what is wrong with me..... I was willing to bite a ghost until I was.... uhhh.. distracted..." He will pause a moment with the smallest of smiles on his face before continuing. " But moments after that battle.... I felt something has change.... I have never felt this way before.... I...OH CRAP!!!" Thrash will jump backwards knocking over some boxes trying to quickly brush a small spider off of his charcoal grey scales.

Seeing that there wasn't a rope ladder like she was expecting, she would draw her sword and board once more, it being much better for close combat, if it happens. And she would stealth (10) heading down, and taking the lead, since the dim light didn't bother her, and she could see as clearly now as she could on a sunny day. As she goes down, she maintains her alertness to a degree, each step, watching for enemies (Perception Roll: 15)
Rajiira would stiffen as Thrash was making a lot of noise as they climbed down, she would whisper "You need to be quiet!! I guarantee you there could be something down here much worse than that spider, or even the ghost, and if you alert it to our presence, you kill us both." she said, before pulling him down into a crouch "Now, stay like this, and walk softly. Rajiira understands her comments could prove distracting to an interested individual, but nothing will come from anything if we both die, yes? Rajiira thinks you should find a balance of your rage, and whatever it is you are experiencing now. It will help you fight better, this one thinks."
She would pat him on the shoulder, and offer him a quick smile, but it was visible that it was also slightly wearing on her. She didn't appear mad, but focused, and she wanted him to focus too. Right now was not the time for any such thoughts - even if she was partially responsible for causing them.
Thrash will look at Rajiira and let out a stiffled laugh "ha, you think you did this to me? Your words may have managed to distract me from my rage but they have nothing to do with what I am feeling now. The feelings of warmth and comfort that subdued me have been replaced by that of pure fear..."
Thrash will take his eyes away from Rajiiras gaze and stare off into the distance with a grave look upon his face, trying to be as quiet as possible. Stealth = 11
Rajiira would chuckle and say "Unless your race is known for smirking often Rajiira has her doubts that your words ring completely true. But she will leave it at that."
Alustine will examine the master bedroom with the cold one - adding his sight to the search of the room. When they are done he will go to the next door to the left.
Thrash will reply back to Rajiira "I get my personality from my father" a slight smile appearing on his face again at the thought.... "My mother on the other hand was cold and ruthless... " the smile quickly morphing into a snarl. Thrash shakes his head, clearing those thoughts from his mind and smiles again to Rajiira. nothing like the friendly cuddly Lizardman I turned out to be." Large razor sharp teeth shining in the torchlight as he unleashes another large grin.

Rajiira would whisper back, saying "We can see how cuddly you are eventually, if Rajiira warms up to you a bit more." She teases, baring her own fangs "I have these as well, though i think mine are cuter~Though it seems we will have something to talk about eventually. Rajiira is still curious about you. You have her attention, even if she does wish to poke a bit of fun at you for jumping at spiders! In any case, let us be done with this. We have to survive and find our way back before anything else. Use that as motivation and we may yet survive this!"
She says continuing down the spiral staircase. Whenever they both finally reach the base, she would stop, and look around, her Darkvision helping her see without light, if there was none. Looking around to see if there was any danger, or otherwise interesting things that warranted looking at. If so she would move to them cautiously. Still with sword and board out, readying herself for any attack that may come out, she prepares to Dodge

Thrash will keep his shield in his left hand and pull out a torch and light it. Holding the torch in his right hand, he will hold it out in front of him attempting to burn away any cobwebs and see if there are any threats in front of him. Every time a cobweb touches him he will give a slight jump and will let a small wimper.
OTC and Allustine don't find much in the master bedroom, there's a jewelry box on the dresser, a dumbwaiter that goes down to the kitchen. Allustine moves on to the other Northern room to find just a small bathroom with nothing of note in it. OTC heads to a southern room and finds another large bedroom. This bedroom has 2 doors in it as well. Smelling fresh air coming from that way it seems like it leads out to a small balcony, the other door she's not sure. Tyriok comes to join them in the search.
Rajiira and Thrash make their way down the spiral staircase for quite some time, before emerging into a dark hallway. From the moment they arrive in the hall, they can hear an eerie, incessant chant echoing throughout. It’s difficult to gauge where the sound is coming from
***Assuming we broke up into 2 groups of 3 Thrash will turn to Tisnip.
After hearing the strange sounds, Thrash will drop do his knees and attempt to his behind his shield. "TISNIP! What is that sound! Thrash will whisper-yell to her, a moment later he will get closer to her and whisper much quieter this time "What is wrong with me? You are obviously a powerful cleric... what has happened to me? One moment I am biting armor and specters and the next minute I am afraid of shadows and spider webs." Thrash will lock eyes, a look of desperation washing across his ravaged face. "Although I am afraid of almost everything now... the thing that scares me the most of all is that I may not have the courage to fight off any new enemies that threaten to harm you all.

OOC is Tisnip with Thrash and Rajiira in the basement?
She loots the jewelry box, then opens the non-balcony door.
