Whistler, moving quietly ahead of the others, heads down the hallway till he reaches another room.
The eastern part of this room is unlit, flooded, and braced with floor-to-ceiling wooden beams. Rough-hewn steps rise out of the murky water to the western portion of the room, which is dry and lit by two torches in sconces that flank a stone altar. Shackled to the wall behind the altar is a sickly man in a loincloth with a burlap sack over his head. An alcove in the north wall contains a freestanding suit of plate armor missing its helm.
Standing before the altar are two grim figures: a powerfully built woman clutching a mace, and an even bigger man wearing a bucket helm. The helmed man is jabbing the prisoner with a spear, causing him to twitch. Both figures are clad in chain mail, and the woman carries a wooden shield with a leering skull painted on it.
Gilbert would look to his spectral bat, sending the familiar off towards the man with the helmet. When the bat is within 5ft, Gilbert would cast shocking grasp through the bat...
Attack: 17 Damage: 3
After tapping landing on the metal bucket helm and delivering its electric shock, the bat would quickly return back to Gilbert.
You are able to quietly come into the room and the 2 at the end of the room do not notice you. Gilbert sends his bat forward and Zzzzt! Electricity flows and zaps the man as the bat flies back to Gilbert.
You can each take a surprise round action (Gilbert has already gone). You can also post a second round action and then the bad guys will go.

Darvin performs a quick gesture, causing the woman's chain mail to begin glowing with heat (6 fire damage). He then (next turn) moves forward with his rapier drawn and attacks her.

As the bat returns, Gil would move back behind his companions, drawing his wand and pointing it between the two enemies. He would then cast magic missile (6 charges) as an eruption of eight multicolored balls of force surge from his wand and split up between the two targets, slamming into both of them.

Tibi wings his way towards the man both Rapiers outstretched (First Rapier (Right Hand) Attack: 10 Damage: 7 + Sneak Attack of 4 and Second Rapier (Left Hand) Attack: 17 Damage: 5)
As the armor the woman is wearing heats up she screams in pain and drops her shield and starts to try and get out of the armor. Distracted as she is by the pain she is unable to defend herself and Darvin steps in and runs her through with his blade and she falls dead.
Seeing the woman fall dead Gilbert sends a flurry of magic missiles at the man only and they slam into him one after another.
Tibi then swoops in and his first rapier attack cuts the man across the throat and he also falls dead.
The man shackled to the wall starts to sob "Thank you, thank you! Free me please! I am a nobleman from the upper city and my family will pay handsomely as a reward."
Gilbert would remove the armored helm of the dead man and look to the suit of armor nearby. "You are welcome! We are with aquisitions inc. and wouldn't dream of turning down a reward for services rendered... isn't that right Darvin?" Gil would say with a smile. "Why don't you all help him out.... the small verdan would say as he slides the helmet into his bag. "I want to check out this armor.. a full suit of armor is worth a lot of money you know." He would say as he quickly pulls out his log book and adds the helmet to his lists before putting it away and making his way to the corner of the room. The small wizard would then pick up a few loose stones from the ground and toss them at the armor... checking to make sure it isn't trapped in anyway before getting close enough to touch it.
Gilbert then makes his way to the armor and inspects it closley with his magnifying glass before pulling out his wand of magic detection and casting [spell]detect magic[.spell]. If the armor is not magical, he would begin dismantling it and placing the pieces in his pack.
Gilbert starts to examine the suit of armor but he is quickly disappointed as he realizes that the parts of the armor are welded together and won't come apart, that is until he gets to the gauntlets which suddenly fly off the armor and attack him!

Gilbert tosses a couple small stones at the armor and they bounce off the breastplate with a small tink and nothing else happens.
