Sorry! Forgot to include the DC. DC 15, so Angelino is the only one so far to save.
with 12 hitpoints she's dead. :')
Oof, you have 3 lives.well, 2 now.
Thara vanishes and reappears in the center of the room, at full hit points.
This happens right when Kay was approaching Thara's body. She whirls around to see Thara standing in the middle of the room.
Kay gestures towards her "See death is meaningless!" She runs over to Thara. "What did it feel like? Do you feel ok now?"
Thara blinks, "What. The. H- no I must refrain myself from cursing, even in bizarre situation like this. Well, I, I definitely died. It felt like dream when you see yourself but not from your eyes. I was being pulled down before I was moved here though, I mustn't let that happen again. It also hurt alot as I got bit."
"Interesting... I was hoping you actually got to talk to Death. Not many live after they do so maybe you didn't stay dead long enough." Kay sighs, "I guess I'll get my chance since I'll probably die and come back eventually." Kay stands in silence for a moment. "Anyway! Lets get to solving this puzzle! Obviously both my guesses were wrong. Soooooooo, anyone else have any ideas?"
"Ugh, this is making my head hurt," Alexander rubs his forehead before scanning the room again. "Perhaps we should try hitting each constellation to see what happens? The riddle says 'behold what they tell you and what 'till you find.' So maybe what happens will tell us something?" He pulls the fire axe out of the loop at his hip, "Unless anyone has any better ideas..."

He pulls the fire axe out of the loop at his hip, "Unless anyone has any better ideas..."
After Alexander says "hitting each constellation..." Kay says "Ok!" and then, before anyone can stop her, she will shoot one arrow at the Nothic and another at the Gelatinous cube. When doing this she will move as far away from the Nothic as possible hoping to stay out of range then will use Uncanny Dodge to half any damage from the Gelatinous cube.

“Doesn’t that seem a little reckless peasant? I’ll heal you when your covered in acid…” Angelino holds Angelina in his hand and casually walks as far away from the gelatinous cube as possible.

Just before shooting Kay looks over her shoulder giving Angelino a flat look. "My name is Kayaws for a reason." She releases the arrow.

When the arrow strikes the Nothic, it releases a psychic retaliation, and Kay takes: 13 psychic damage.
However, when the arrow strikes the gelatinous cube, the room begins to spin and vanishes. The next thing you know, you are standing... (who's got the next room?)

If you want an explanation of the riddle:
Constellations form pictures, pretty to see
Unique, glamorous, and sparkly
Behold what they tell you and wait till you find
Enemy that matches with this rhyme
The enemy 'matches the rhyme' in a literal sense.
Lol, good one!
wow, I'm an idiot :) good room.

To recap:
You notice that some of that stars form words:
Constellations form pictures, pretty to see
Unique, glamorous, and sparkly
Behold what they tell you and wait till you find
Enemy that matches with this rhyme
And:
Thoruk sees several constellations of ‘ducks’ that are really: an orc, a mimic, a Nothic, an ogre, a gelatinous cube, a hydra, and a dragon.
