Lorvax will, hissing under his breath, attempt to alert the others regarding the armour.  "I don't want to unduly alarm anyone," he says backing away, "but I believe I just saw this armour move... of its own accord."  His hand moves back and draws his halberd.

Lostur manages to tear himself away from his adoration of the tapestry to glance at the armor.  "Uh, well, don't piss it off, then.  It musta been put here by our people, so it's like, an antique or an artifact or something. We ain't gotta trash everything on the way up to this intruder trying to take our tower, right?"  Still, he walks over and stands behind Lorvax, peering at the statue to see if it really moved or not.

Lostur and Lorvax roll perception.

Lostur perception: 11

Lorvax Perception: 4

"I say we leave this and let's try to find our witch. We can go back here later..." replies Kray

Lostur you think you might have seen the armour twitch as you got closer but you can not be sure. Lorvax you see nothing this time as you are distracted by Losturs approach. 

Kray, almost as if in response to your words the teleportation circle springs back into life having taken some time to charge.

"Brothers... please... let's go up, all together this time.." asks the paladin fearing that they finally make the armor come to life.

"Agreed," Lorvax grunts at Kray.  "I don't like surprises... and it strikes me this place has an awful lot of 'em."

Lostur shrugs.  "At least the babe in the picture has a good bodyguard.  Let's not bother him or her," he agrees, leaving the armor be.

You all stand on the teleportation circle and there is a now familiar blur of motion as you move upward.

Everyone make a Dex check as you appear on the top level.

Lostur, like usual, is right on top of things.  Perhaps literally.

Dex check: 3

(Kray DEX: 10 

 +3 if is an area attack?  

Also the rest has +3 bonus to their ST thanks to Kray's aura of devotion ) 

(Since it is a check and I was thinking on a ST the bonus is just +1, so Kray rolled a total of 7 )

((Inadvertently rolled a save rather than a check, so no +3)

Dex Check: 16

"Wait for me!" Brenvull shouts as the others go to the teleportation circle. He was distracted by all the skulls in the room.

Dex: 12 (+3 from kray?)

Lostur you take 30 fire damage the rest of you take half as the fireball hits. 

As the dust settles you are suddenly hit by the freezing cold wind that is blasting through the far wall. You are at the top level of the tower, in what was once the high priest bed chamber. There is a large hole in the wall opposite through which you see the cold blue sky for the first time in an age. It takes you a moment to blink away the black dots that swim before your eyes. 

Between you and the gap lies the mummified body of the high priest, layed out on a low stone table. A masked figure stands over him. A figure you can only presume to be the elven witch who has defiled your home. She glares at you as the fireball dissipates and growls.

"What are you waiting for. Kill them!"

It is then that you see the familiar sight of the goblin shaman standing behind two armoured Bugbears who are charging in for the attack. 

Roll Initiative!

OOC: Sorry for the wait, but it was worth it to get a full party for this battle

"Hot! Hot!" Lostur yells as he gets roasted.

Initiative: 16 + 1 gift of alacrity

"Defiler!" yells Kray "Your end is near!"

Lorvax lets out a snarl and prepares to meet the attackers.
