Cora caught a glance at Lilly, it was so adorable how red she got, even her ears got red, and it made the rogue smile. She didn’t mean to make her uncomfortable, but it was difficult to have self restrait around Lilly, just looking at her stirred a deep attraction to her she had trouble controlling. Her eyes, the warmth of her skin, the sweet taste of her lips, it drove her wild inside. She would often remember the more intimate moments they shared before Lilly lost her memory, and remembering how her hands felt on her body in the dark of night. It was an effort to take it slow, and a moment ago she indulged a bit. Cora was always so opportunistic. She thought it mildly humorous Lilly got embarrased, but didn’t do it on purpose. It wasnt easy to have restraint when you knew what it was like waking up next to someone you loved.

She would do anything to have those moments again, but she reminded herself to take it slow and respect Lillys feelings. This time, she wouldnt be able to beat up, push around, and simply take what she wanted.

Eroks gesture snapped her out of it, and the growing warmth in her loins subsided - getting her to focus on the matter at hand.

Blades out, i'll go first down the hall. I'll look around and see if I can make out anything that catches my eye.

Investigation: 11

Maegan will probably go last because she’s too busy lost in thought about everything that’s happened

You travel for a minute down the dim hall filled with drifting ash. Turning a corner, you see a door 120 feet down the hall. The walls in this hallway glow with flickering orange light, like the last embers of a dying fire. Carvings on the walls depict throngs of unbelievers and enemies burning to death in agony. The figures seem to writhe and twist in the dim, wavering light. The familiar bands of glyphs run the length of the hallways.

Though Erok and Cora are keeping an eye out, they both miss the pressure plate in the floor 30 feet from the door. Cora, as you step on it, a gate crashes down 30 feet behind the group.

(The DC to see it was 15, you were both just ONE off from spotting it -_- )

Just as the gate closes behind you, a gust of wind blasts from above the doorway ahead of you threatening to knock you all over.

There is the red glow of fire coming from a red gem set above the door...

I need initiative!

HELLS, nice job, inquisitive rogue!! Cora thought to herself, angrily.

Initiative: 5

SON OF A MOTHERLESS--

Owie....

Initiative: 5

((Ooc: Crispy this is your fault))

(If we're gonna die, it's because i'm causing everyone to roll very shittily LOL!)

Maegan: I almost forgot! After spending a short rest with it, you learn the properties of the magical necklace you picked up earlier. It is a Necklace of Fireballs with four beads remaining.

(Shrieks in fright) Gah!! Fire!!

Erok jumps as the door crashes down, immediately widening his stance against the wind, readying himself.

Init: 22

((Whew!))

Oh thank the Hells. Someone got a good roll LOL.

Initiative: 17

(It's been 24 hours so I'm going to go ahead and get combat going- our missing wizard can join in when he posts next)

Wasif's initiative: 8

Fire bolt trap: 4

Okay Erok is first!

Erok: The gate that closed is 30 feet behind you and the open doorway is 30 feet ahead of you. The entire hall is under the effect of a Gust of Wind Spell. At the beginning of your turn I need a strength saving throw (DC 13). On a fail you are pushed 15 feet back. You can move forward, but because of the spell every foot of movement costs two feet of your speed. What would you like to do?

“Oh, no! It’s wind! Whatever shall we do?!” Cora cries out, laughing.

"Thoth, please have mercy on my girlfriend's stupid-- I mean, cute ass."

((quick question who is in front of lilyth? and would they be close enough to touch?))

Strength ST: 18

Erok stands strong against the winds buffeting him.  He moves forward, head on a swivel, keeping an eye out for any movement, ready to attack. 

((Normal movement is 45 ft so half that is his move forward.))

Okay! Erok you do indeed stand strong against the wind, pushing 20 ft forward. You are now 10 ft away from the open doorway ahead of you.

That brings us to Maegan! Start off with that strength saving throw, on a fail (DC 13) you'll be pushed backwards. After that you can take your turn as usual.

Since you were at the back of the group, you are 20 ft from the metal gate behind you and 40 ft from the open doorway ahead.

Lilyth: (Maegan is next to you, Wasif and Perzival are directly ahead of you. Cora and Erok are at the front.)

((Oki perfect thank you!))

Just before Maegan starts to make a move, Lilyth gently places her hand at the air genasi’s back and casts guidance. “Just for a little more ‘umph’!”

Strength ST: 7 

(ooc I used the guidance for the strength check)
