When Alexander sees the genes and the Dragonborn both preparing to burn the contents of the table, his first thought is, "Oh no, not more fire." Then he shouts, "Wait! Don't burn it all just yet!"
"Ughh, talk about a buzzkill. Fine, I won't burn everything just yet."
Alexander lets out a sigh of relief, "Thank you fine sir, once we see if eating these...interesting foods...accomplishes anything. The table is all yours for the burning.." He plans on being as far away as possible, to make sure that his armor doesn't become a portable oven. He briefly glances at Jerry and Kay as he thinks this.

Smart move, I think it’s funny that we have three fire based characters! One uses no magical fire, one is a sorcerer, and Kay (seems) to be a mix of both!
The paladin takes a few steps back, leaving his smoldering cloak on the table. Looking around he asks, "Is anyone else here concerned for this fellow?" As he speaks, he wonders if Jerry really would have used his armor as an oven.
a large barbaric half-orc with a remarkably calm face looks at you, then at Jerry, and says around a mouthful of caviar; "Being on fire is fine, but if he grows a thousand legs and starts walking on it, then you call me, okay?".
Alexander, you notice that some of the depicted monsters are not eating humanoid figures. They are: an orc, a frost giant, a giant spider, a vampire, and an ochre jelly.
And welcome to Kay!
Thoruk, who would have noticed Alexander examining the food of these carvings, picks one of them at random, and looks for if there is that food on the table. If there is, he will lock eyes with the carving, and eat some, looking for any reaction.
Quick correction- when I said not eating humanoids, I meant not eating anything. The orc, frost giant, giant spider, vampire, and ochre jelly are eating nothing.

LOL yeah she likes to set things on fire with her lightning or with whatever non magic or magic things she has, it all depends on 'the moment'.
Darkflare was planning to burn the table, but was stopped by Alexander.
Kay did electrocute the table but it didn't appear to effect it very much.
Thoruk and Alexander were planning to select food that the orc, frost giant, giant spider, vampire, and ochre jelly were eating, but they actually weren't eating anything.

After blasting the table and rolling her eyes at Alexander, Kay walks over to the vampire picture.
Jerry appears to be on his last legs, his skin is also starting to burn, like literally. (It’s one of my favorite effects of drinking gasoline!)
” *burrrrrp* okay guys, I’m ready for action! Tell me what to do and I’ll blow it up!!!” Jerry seems drunk on gasoline.
Without turning to look at Jerry, Kay answers, "You may be ready for action, but i don't think action is ready for you. It seems to be hiding." She runs her hand over the picture as she examines it, searching for anything unnatural or out of place. "Perhaps these can show us where it went."

No worries! And thanks for the recap! Just out of curiosity, since the monsters aren't eating anything, what are they doing?
Alexander staggered backwards as Kay tries to electrocute the table, but relaxed when the lightning didn't do much. Glancing at the carvings again, he wonders aloud, "What if we weren't supposed to eat anything? Maybe the fact that our favorite foods are here is simply a distraction."

Wow that's a good roll. You notice that the fangs seem to be made of a slightly different material. It's hard to tell, but this material might be more... absorptive.

Mostly just standing there, nothing out of the ordinary.

Ok so I'm not sure if Kay saw this or not...
Perception 15
You notice a stone pedestal at the head of the table, with those words carved on the top of it.
I'm assuming Alexander would have seen the riddle by now... Hesitantly he asks, "Did anyone see any blood on the table? I think that might be our answer." He looks at the vampire where Kay is standing, "Anything interesting about that carving?"
Kay hears Alexander say 'Blood.' She re-reads the riddle, looks back at the picture, then exclaims, "Blood! Yes!" She proceeds to bite her own hand and smear the blood on the vampire's fangs.
An ominous creaking sound echos through the chamber, and the table sinks down into the floor and then vanishes, revealing a deep, dark shaft looming below your feet. Gazing in, you see nothing but darkness.
Thoruk will look down, and notice that it's dark. He then pulls a torch out of his pack, lights it on Jerry's smouldering hair, and then drops it down the shaft to see how far down it goes.

Nothing is burning yet, right?

Not really sure i did electrocute the table... Maybe it's just singed?
Damage to table if needed 4
Edit:and food
With that amount of damage I'd say you toasted some of the food- but didn't damage it overly much.

So what is happening is:
Darkflare was planning to burn the table, but was stopped by Alexander.
Kay did electrocute the table but it didn't appear to effect it very much.
Thoruk and Alexander were planning to select food that the orc, frost giant, giant spider, vampire, and ochre jelly were eating, but they actually weren't eating anything.
