Update/clarification:

Set of fangs carved into the wall has a pair of gaps only 2 inches wide.

Tinkara see that skeleton body lies atop a floor tile bearing the "foot" hieroglyph. She also feel a smell of rotting corpses in the room and notice purple mold to sprout from the south wall and south part of the ceilings. It suddenly releases cloud of harmless spore and the smell intensify.

You know that dispel magic worst at a range of op to 120 feet, the intelligent Vatoris lecture you. You can easily do that any moment even with your ayes close even standing where you are.

When Zean cast the the spell dark essence magically coalesces into a swarm of bats that flies up out of the shaft and attacks everyone in the room.

OK. Let's move story on, let's say Ixion and Throgin were having a heated conversation at the staircase re - reading the bronze plaque is fixed to the east wall, none expected an attack, so they will also skip first round as surprised

swarm of bats

bats attack Zean, flyin all around him

OOC:

If you are not familiar with this mechanics in 5e there these things called

[ +- ] Swarm.

They are now the same space as Zean, but otherwise you could attack and target them with spells as usual. Only area spells that affect swarm will also affect Zean.

Most of the bats find way to bite Zean where no armor before anyone manage to counter attack. Throgin and Tinkara didn't even notice what's happening until after Zean informs them of the attack.

OOC:

@Pedrop I'm looking forward for your round 1 turn
@annex feel free to post your round 2 turn as soon as you can, even before @Pedrop posted. I will adjust or allow you to re-post if situation changes significantly before your turn
Everyone but Zean are more than 5 feet but less that 30 away from the swarm.

OOC:

Few questions:
1. how much damage should I note on Zean's sheet, considering:

[ +- ] Damage Resistances.

??
2. I'm not sure if I get 5E rules right, but as I wasn't surprised Zean may be allowed to use his reaction for this:

[ +- ] Wrath of the Storm (Reaction)

?? It would be cool and thematic if he could! :) But I'm not sure?

Besides Zean will make a normal attack with his Maul for now. Rolling for this.

Will edit this post with eventual additional rolls and RP after getting your answers to questions above.

Rolls

Maul - Attack - (1d20+7)

As the bats tries to bit Zean, looking for a hole in his armor - those that hit the metal parts of it are electrocuted by little lightning coming from electrified body of Zean.

OOC:

I'm noting Reaction as UN-used as we are already in 2nd round.

In battle	D crawl
Reaction used 0	Always ON: Resistance, Light
Holding shield 1	Inspiration: 0
Resistance(C): turns left 9/10	HD used: 9/9 - d8

Ixion swung his longsword Blæcsæx twice at the darkness given winged form.

OOC:

I really must apologize. Life's been crappy for a while and lots of things have suffered, including my gaming here. I'm endeavouring to do better.

Longsword +1 attack, damage - (1d20+10, 1d8+6)

1d20+10 : (8) + 10 = 18

Longsword +1 attack, damage - (1d20+10, 1d8+6)

Although it's not an easy job to fight a swarm with a sword, Ixion's manages to kill last two bats who were able to keep attacking after Zean's counter attack and the swarm simply disappears.

OOC:

Out of initiative, combat is over.

As you take a look into the mouth again there is no more darkness and you can see what Ixion saw:

[ +- ] Look through tunel

What do you do?

thorsman99 says:

After relaying to the party what I see, I will go and examine the dwarf skeleton, without landing on the floor, and using my staff to move things around. Do I see anything interesting?

I'm going to resume doing this, hopefully with the 18 that I rolled earlier? I know about the mold and smell, but I'm unsure if there was anything interesting about the dwarf skeleton.

"Oh a little boat! We like boats with Throign!" - Zean comments jokingly after looking down, visibly happy that they dealt fast with magical bats. Then he looks around.

"Wait... where is Thorigin? Did he say anything about where he is heading with Vatoris?" - there was a slight expression of worry on Zean face, but quickly dispelled by the thought that two such strong individuals should be safe together, for now.

"Going back to the boat: there is no good ship, without good ropes and crew. I think we should board it now..." - with another smile Zean starts to proceed a rope from his explorer’s pack and tries to find a suitable place to tie it strong, so he and others willing could climb with it down the shaft.

"I didn't see where they went, Zean, but they know better than to wander off in this evil place."

Ixion couldn't help but smile at Zean's boating enthusiasm.

"It's probably a funerary boat, the kind that takes you to the other side after death. I don't think you'd like the trip. Rope climbing isn't my strong suit but I'll do my best to follow you down."

"Trip is a trip. As long you are able to get back home..." - Zean smiled, winked to Ixion and started to descend on the rope as first, after flying and nimble Tinks.
