Alexandria’s expression, once of doubt and slight annoyance turned into one of fear once realization hit. She stumbled back as far as possible from the heat, coughing, accidentally inhaling some of the unbreatheable air.
“Get that door closed!” She yelled as her heel met with the water once again. “Shit—“
If she could aid him she would, but her magic is useless when it came to heat and fire. She should have listened to her mother damn it!

( So just a rundown of whats going on. There is a enormous creature of some sort in the room coming at us and behind him there is a fissure spewing out superheated air/steam.Dennis has(?) magically unlocked the door, but we don't know if it worked yet? is this all correct? )

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Wruce watches as Yuno run up to Raven, both of them trying to escape the sulphurous air. He runs up to them and pulls them to the ground ( Acrobatics : 17 ,Athletics : 0 ). Wruce holds his cape over the two humans and attempts to offer them whatever protection the piece of cloth would allow.
OoC: To clarify, the force behind the door is likely gas that has been trapped behind the door and allowed to build up pressure, as tends to happen in volcanoes. It's not a monster or dragon or anything. Wruce: I will take your Acrobatics check to protect Yuno and Raven. Dennis: That was a good use of Knock.
With a well timed Knock, Dennis breaks one lock at a time, allowing the gas to escape without causing any cataclysmic destruction. It certainly becomes hard to breath for a minute and you go from soaking wet to parched and sweating, but disaster has been averted... for the moment. The tremors in the ground have not ceased, and every so often a rumble will shake dust from the roof of the cave.
Peering through the opening into what lies beyond the door, Roderick sees a long, hall with red, brick walls and multicolored flagstones on the floor. A line of unlit sconces hang from the arched ceiling every 20 ft. The grand hall seems to end in another wide space just beyond your field of vision. Two blazing, blue eyes flick open in the darkness.

Dennis covered his face with a hand, trying to shield himself from the heat. "Hopefully opening the door will reduce the pressure enough so we can go through this area," he said, coughing as the heat hit his throat. Once the heat subsided enough so he could move his hand, Dennis peered into the room. Seeing the two blue eyes, he prepared to fight.
Initiative:8
I was working on my post while DM posted, so I didn't see it until after I posted. Edited for Initiative instead of Perception, which is what I originally rolled for.
Seeing the eyes Roderick will immediately take cover and hide. Stealth 11 , but he feels like the eyes were on him. He yells they're is something alive here
If Karnys notices the eyes, he steps up to the front and prepares for a fight. His mirror image should still be active. He will Ready a spell (booming blade) that triggers if the thing behind the eyes make any aggressive movements.

When the door is opened and the smoke leaves the room beyond, Yuno stands up and thanks Wruce for the help. She lets Roderick look first while slowly making her way closer to the doorway herself. Something spooks Roderick causing him to dive into cover. Yuno moves a bit to get to place from where she can see the hallway beyond (She also hasn't entered) and notices the two blue eyes. She doesn't move and doesn't say anything; she just stares into the blue eyes with a fixed, unwavering gaze. Just what is she thinking? Is she terrified or is it something else?
(Where is Yuno with respect to the rest of the party?)

Wruce gets up and nods to Yuno in recognition of her appreciation. He extends a hand to Raven to help her up.
“You ok?” He ask, but before he can get a reply he hears the commotion behind him and sees Yuno standing starring into the darkness, frozen in her action.
With a flourish of his cape Wruce moves infront of the young girl, and gazes into the abyss at those hypnotic blue eyes. His Demon Sight giving him the visual of what awaits in the darkness.
“Go hide, this is no place for a little girl” He say with authority as he reaches towards his belt. Wruce pulls out the vial containing the distilled spirits, rubs in on his palms and puts his hand to his chest. He casts False Life on himself. A rush goes through his body energizing him. ( 6 temp hp )
Wruce bends his knees, and raises his fists as he gets into a martial arts stace awaiting the battle to come.
ok. I'm trying

Yuno moves back next to Raven to avoid the hot steam.
Karnys is not exactly sure what is going on, but will move away from anything that looks dangerous.

( did the lever cause the door to open and release the pressure? If so what did Knock do? )
"*cough* Egads! That heat is oppressive!" Cleese says as he covers his mouth with his shirt.

(Just for clarification, Yuno is 23 years old. Though Wruce might be older, idk.)
Yuno however, doesn't go. She keeps staring at the blue eyes.
