Necromancer's Delusion-Homebrew

Jinara moves 30 ft, passing through the door, towards the south wall following Gaelin's footsteps. Seeing the blast of divine energy stem from his fingers, Jinara's black eyes flare with a ring of silver. Jinara takes aim at the last guard, emitting the glow of divine from Gaelin's blast, slides his right hand out from inside his sleeve. he pulls his hand back by his hip thrusts forward with tenacity, mutters something under his breath, and fires Fire Bolt.

(Rolling at advantage because of Gaelin's guiding bolt)

ATK 26

DMG 6

(I typed 2d20 on my atk roll by accident. I just changed it to 1d20. If you want me to reroll that, I will.)

(For shame... lol all good.  I've done that quite a few times myself.)

The bolt of flame catches the guard in the face burning away nearly one half of his face leaving a charred jaw bone.  The lifeless body slumps to the floor with a thud and the hallway goes silent.  The bodies of the two guards lie flanking the central door on the southern wall while the third guard's body rests near the easternmost door.  You all advance into the long hallway lit by a few torches hung on the wall.  The hallway you now stand in has 5 doors, 3 on the southern wall and one on the eastern and western ends.  

(end of combat)

Updated map: 

Do we see anything in this room besides dead guards?

Nothing that stands out.  Two bookshelves on the northern wall and two cabinets on either side of the eastern door.

Perception check to see if I hear any sounds coming from any of the doors. (one for each door?)

Perception (left to right):   24    15    22    14

SW door: silence.  

S-center door:  silence then a faint shuffling for a split second then silence again.

SE door:  silence

East door:  You hear the sound of several people moving about.  The sound of pots, pans and plates being picked up and set down.  

Stealth: 14

I relay all this to the group in whispers.  

Once Jinara processes the information about each door, he takes a combat position and glares at the center door (shuffle then silence door). His eyes flare again, whispers a few words, and he prepares (and holds) Fire Bolt. (The trigger is once the door opens, any non-party creature posing an aggressive action in line of sight)

"I can transform into a rat and slip under the doors if you wish... or some other small creature" The minotaur would say with a snort as he commands each of the zombies to stand next to each of the southern doors with a point of his spear. "Can someone check to see if any of the doors are locked first?" Mucor would say as he scratches his thick hairy neck, sending a small shower of spores falling to the ground.

"I can check the doors." Aryn says.   (do I need to roll another stealth check?)

Sleight of hand (doors left to right again):  23  25    29  25  

(No need on stealth since you just rolled it)

Only the westernmost door is locked.  All the other doors are unlocked.  

Aryn and Gaelin, you would recognize the eastern door as the kitchen door that you were brought through on your way to the dungeon. (sorry forgot to message you prior)

"I vote Mucor check the center door as a rat and report back.  Or we hide the guard's bodies to buy us more time. Whatever we're doing we should do it quickly.  I don't know how long we have before a kitchen servant walks through that door." Gaelin whispers pointing at the eastern door.

Mucor would nod with a snort before his body twists and contorts as it shrinks into a tiny black spider with fine green hairs on its back that upon close inspection is actually mold. The spider would then crawl up the wall and slip into the room through the top of the door and attempt to climb its way on to the ceiling before looking around. 

Spider stealth! 18
Spider Perception! 20

"I concur."  Aryn says drawing her bow string back and standing adjacent to Jinara against the north wall ready to release the arrow at any foe beyond the door. 

Jinara continues to hold Fire Bolt...

Mucor- You successfully (barely) sneak into the room and see a group of 4 guards as well as your three targets staring towards the door.  Two guards have their crossbows trained on the door the other two have swords drawn and stand ready for an attack.  The sheriff stands in the center of the large room in heavy armor sword drawn.  The maester and duke stand back a few paces waiting anxiously.  

Go ahead and roll initiative. (I'm guessing I know where this is heading... unless you wanna be like the six fingered man.)

Duke:   24   Maester:    17     Sheriff:   19   Guards:   14

Updated map: 

(OOC Mucor is going to try to move to the back of the room first! also... I guess they heard us?)

Mucor initiative 10

(OOC Do I get a surprise round? I am wishing I had a signal because with them watching the door I don't dare go back out and come back in... I think I am going to try to continue to move behind them towards the back of the room.)

(lol, love that movie)

Initiative:  5

Gaelin

Initiative:  11

(While we wait for Mucor to return can i have mage hand up to open the door in case we hear something?)
