Khorzik begins unrolling his rope and tying a loop on one end. "I am not sure. All I know is that the magic will animate the suits of armor if anyone enters the room. Perhaps if we remove them from the room before the magic is triggered? I welcome anyone else attempting this endeavor as I may not the most skilled at attacking at range."
Khorzik attempts to lasso a suit of armor and drag it out of the room. (No idea what check to make) Ranged attack w/o proficiency: 5 STR check to pull: 4

Nemeia can't help but to laugh at their situation. Who would have ever thought she'd be in a manor like this trying to round up statues that were trying to attack her. She thinks about just letting loose with her crossbow but waits to see if the other's are successful with their plan.
"Ok this may be more of a plan B, ... or just a bad idea in general." Sora suggested after she made her way back to the doorway to the large dining room containing the armor. "We could just attack. Maybe try to hit them from beyond the doorway. This kinda trap seems like it relies on the element of surprise, right? Or do you think they'll start swinging as soon as they get attacked? I suppose that would make sense." She was no expert on magic, so Sora wasn't sure how to deal with a magic trap, for the moment she could only offer whatever random thoughts moved past her mind.
“I can go a while longer, but not for too long. Do you think there is anyone here? Maybe we could sleep here and ser watches to see if anyone or anything tries to escape?”
I think Sora's plan is a good one,Witt says feeling suddenly bold. We are strong and many and confident and... um... well, they're just statues. How hard can it be? He draws his bow and gets ready to fire if the others are agreed.

"Guess there's only one way to find out!" Sora says. Encouraged by Witt's comments, she begins to move forward, sliding her fingers across sections of her outfit, once across her belt, once across her shoulder. From both those areas whips of nearly invisible arcane smoke begins to move across her body, leaving behind subtle trails of both light and shadow. She reaches back and pulls out a pair of throwing axes, ready for battle, before moving into the dining room without hesitation.
With an eager look in her eye and a playful smile on her lips she rushes into the room, standing in the middle of it, she tosses her axes at both of the armors. As soon as the axes are free she pulls out her swords as she readies for their attack. "Come on you cheap scrap heaps, let's see what you're made of!"
Just before running in I'm activating both of my Haug and Ise runes, attacking both armors with throwing axes. ( Currently at Strength 22 and Resistance to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage. )
The axes fly through the air and slam true against their targets digging hard into their respective steel armor pieces. The powerful attacks even cause one of the suites to temporarily stagger from the blow. But both armors were already moving from the moment Sora stepped into the dining hall. The same unnatural movements driving the constructs forward as before, however these movements felt quicker, and smoother, as if better suited for combat. The armors walk up next to Sora, swinging their gauntleted fists towards her.

Kal follows in close behind Khorzik and in synchronous makes an electric attack. Though his attack seems to channel down the length of his scimitar and arc into the animated armor.

The groups attacks fell upon the animated armors greatly damaging the once pristine plates. But the constructs were still moving, like cold relentless machines, they continued attacking with their mangled plates.

Sora, are you okay? I... should we go in? Witt asks, worrying a great deal about the damage that his new friend is taking. He shoots an arrow towards whichever armour appears weakest: Attack: 10 Damage: 6

Sora grins as she shrugs off the blows from these creatures, "I'm doing great, I've been in bar fights tougher then this." Without slowing down she swings her swords in deadly arcs once more to try to end the fight.

If it's a check, then Guidance on anything where Witt would have the chance to do it.
Unfortunately the lasso attempt misses the target landing short of the enchanted armor.

Nemeia watches with interest excited to see what happens.
As Sora darts in, Witt casts Shield of Faith on her.

This is working! Right? Oh, that wasn't right.
Khorzik steps into the room next to Sora and reaches out with an hand that crackles with electricity.
Casting shocking grasp. Attack: 24 Damage: 4 electricity damage.
Sora grins back at the walking armors, feel the ancient power coursing through her, she swings out with powerful blows of her swords.

9 opens the door and stands within 10 feet of the statue, unleashing her whip on it.
