Hunferho: "I think it would be better if we could all proceed together. When you say, "no open flames", is that a one-time thing? With all of us behind cover in this room, Axandros could use his arcane hand to carry a torch down that corridor, and toss it into the next area."

"Unknown - I just wanted to stop everyone before they blew us up...for those who can't see we can tie each other together or you can just keep your hand on the shoulder of the person in front of you until we get past it..."
"Well this is a difficult situation" Pogo mutters to himself "Arrow, could Khaffosi swim through the gas filled area? Is the water deep enough? and does the water continue beyond the gas?" he ask before a sudden realization hits him turning to Khaffosi "Can you go under water?"
Arrow heads back down the stairs in to the gas filled room and down the other tunnel he saw looking to see if the gas is beyond the chamber or not before reporting back to the rest of the party his findings.
Arrow disappears from view as he slinks down the damp tunnel. It continues on for a little while and there is another staircase that leads up and out of the flooded area. The air begins to smell stuffy, but no longer of bag-egg-explosion-gas.
(Is Khaffosi one of the rare Fire Genasi that has actual flames on his body, or is he like most of that race that are heated and look like they have flames on the skin?)

(Khaffosi isn't always 'on fire'. He does seem to sprout small flames when he is particularly angry, and is able to produce flame at will, but he's not always on fire. In his calm state, Khaffosi has an ashen grey skin tone and is maybe a bit warmer than the average person. But when he angers, his skin becomes flushed, he heats up enough to smoke and when raging, can outright sprout flames.)
(Fall all purposes, fire genasi aren't open flames unless they're being actually fiery, like casting spells etc. Should be fine wandering through without a torch or casting fire spells.)
(Yes, mechanically the ability to sprout flame is a cantrip. But roleplaying, I'm also tying that ability to his anger/rage. It's just roleplay flavor, hence why I'm making Khaffosi hesitate about walking into a place where an open flame would be disastrous)
("The more human-looking have fiery red hair that writhes under extreme emotion, while more exotic specimens sport actual flames dancing on their heads."
I just wanted to make sure that Khaffosi wasn't the Heat Miser. Glad to hear it won't be a problem.)

"I'm with Hunferho on this one. Blow the whole thing, then we'll go down and check it out after the gas is burnt up."

"Wouldn't that be a solution to the task we've been given?" Khaffosi asks, liking the idea more and more.

"Well good news is that it seems to just be the room ahead of us, the air seems to clear out once you get through there...."

(What I meant was being a genasi won't automatically make you explode a room, so you're safe to wander through.)
(And I'm saying, as long as Khaffosi is not angry, that will be true.)
