@ Stannic, you are able to hear breathing from a large creature on the other side of the door. Whatever it is, it sounds like it is awake but the breathing is getting slower as if calming down or readying for sleep.

Misty nods, leaving the butchery work once it is completed, and stepping up to the door as well. She glances around, making sure everyone is ready, then nods, indicating she is ready as well. She grips her magical sword, ready to rush in once the door is opened.
Gimble follows Misty, ready to move in. (Second or third in line)
I'm reposting the map.
Goblin Castle
The map shows, the party in the hobgoblin sleeping quarters section of the castle. Stannic, Misty and Gimble are near a door in the southern direction of the room. The room that is beyond the door is the same room Sebastian spotted a large creature. Casmir and Gniff are in the center of the hobgoblin sleeping quarters room. There is a door on the western side that leads to the room beyond the second hall. There is a curtain in the north side of the room separating sections of the hobgoblin sleeping quarters. Beyond the curtain is the door that the party entered the room in. Opposite of that door is another door, leading to a part of the castle the party has not explored. Sebastian was not able to peer into that part of the castle due to damaged parts of the castle. Casmir spotted another possible entrance to that part of the castle.
@ the party, (OOC: if no one has any objections, Misty will open the door to the room where the large creature is.)

(Good to go)
(Sorry, did not realize this was that room...)
"There is a large creature in there." Misty says, glancing to the others. "if it is hostile, which I have no reason to think it wouldn't be, I'd suggest giving it room to run away, rather than engaging it. There is no way to tell what it is, so it might be too big for us to fight..." She waits until the others are all ready, then will open the door and step to one side.
@ the party, Misty opens the door, the room is very dark, making it hard to see inside the room. There is a large creature, the moment the door opens it attacks with a large paw at Misty.
Attack: 17
Damage(if it hits): 12
@ the party, (OOC: if you wish to fight the creature, roll initiative. if you want to try something else, let me know.)

(Not sure how it attacks Misty as she is not in the doorway and would have been well off to the side as soon as the door was open enough for it to do so... if it still manages to do so, then she casts shield to block the strike. I did specificly say she was stepping to the side and figured she was smart enough not to be in the middle of the doorway as she opened it, prior to stepping to one side. If that was not possible, due to the configuration of door and other things, then no problem and she'll simply cast shield to deflect the strike.)
(OOC I’m game to just go to the other room assuming the large creature can’t get out. But otherwise, here’s Gimbles initiative)
Initiative 14
Casmir will step in front of the door and try to hold the attention of whatever is in the room.
(OOC Initiative: 6)
@ Misty, (OOC: My mistake, I was using your other post where you said you would rush in. Either way, casting shield or stepping to the side, the attack misses.)
@ the party, (OOC: Gimble, and Casmir wish to fight the creature, I do not see any initiative from the rest of you. I'll give the party more time to decide, but as it is now, the majority of the party do not wish to fight this creature, and the next post will have what happens if the party avoids the creature.)

Misty would prefer not to fight a creature, if it doesn't wish to fight them. If it will run off, if given a path, then that is the best option for her, and likely the group.
“Wait!” Stannic holds up his hands. He has no desire to fight one of nature’s creatures if it can be avoided. It could easily be a prisoner here as well, unlike the others they have faced in the castle.
With a wave of his staff and a short incantation in sylvan, Stannic attempts to communicate with the creature. “We mean you no harm as long as you do not attack us. We are searching the castle for a dwarf captured by these goblins. Have you seen him, is he in the castle?”
Gimble will step back and let Stannic do his thing.
Casmir stands back, as well, and waits to see what happens.
"About time..." Misty whispers as she presses against the wall to the side of the door, hopefully not too attractive of a target for whatever is inside the chamber.
@ Stannic, the attacks stop. "The goblins have trapped me in this small cave, now that you have opened a way out for me, I intend to leave. I have not seen anything other than goblins while i was here. Will you let me pass?". You are able to see inside the room, the large creature is an owl bear.

Stannic throws his companions a nervous glance. “We have no desire to fight you, we will let you pass as long as you leave us in peace.” He stands away from the door and motions the others to make room for the creature to leave.
Gimble makes way.
Pressing herself even tighter against the wall, Misty has no trouble allowing the thing to move on its way. Once it is gone she will move into the chamber to have a look around.
