With a last, disappointed, glance at the crown, Aera descends and takes the scepter.

"What does the stick do again? We sure this is it? I don't want to come back if it's not."

"It's called a scepter. It's a symbol of authority of rulership."
Oct 26, 2018 3:57 pm
As Aera removes the scepter from the statue's hand, the cave begins to rumble and from outside the room a stiff breeze gushes through the room, extinguishing all torchlight, leaving you in a pitch black, wind-filled chamber.

Just over the sound of the wind, you hear the shriek of stone and metal moving against one another.

DESECRATION! VIOLATION! USURPATION! booms through the room in Common, then in Dwarven. It repeats over and over from no identifiable direction.

COMBAT! PCs are up.

OOC:
Aera is RIGHT in front of the statue. Does it sound like that's the metal/stone sound?

Believing that the wind will prevent anyone from re-lighting a torch, Baraq squawks, "Everyone out!" She blindly tries to make her way to the exit, using the direction of the breeze as a guide.

Cat has darkvision. Can she see, or is this magical darkness of some sort?

Aera, the sound is definitely coming from right where the statue is.
Cat, you cannot see through this darkness at all. Inky pitch black.
Baraq, you can easily navigate to the other room, but it is also super inky dark.

OOC:
Is the wind consistent, or can we light a torch in the other room?
"Come! This way, follow my voice!" Baraq says.
Oct 26, 2018 10:58 pm
Aera tries to head toward the exit with the scepter, "Flee!

The wind continues to howl in the other room, still with an evershifting direction of origin. Baraq and Aera especially notice the way the eddies move through the room as being unnatural.

Aera, are you Disengaging or just moving away?

Catriona tries to follow the birdmen out.
OOC:
Disengage.

As you rush through the magical darkness, you cannot find the entrance. In fact, when you get into the room, you aren't even sure where the exit may be.

The grating sound of stone and metal follows you into the room and Aera, you feel a punishingly strong blow land where your right wing meets your body. (7 points bludgeoning damage)

Just realized Xavena hadn't posted, I just assumed they'd be running with the rest.
Combat. Bold below may act
Aera
Baraq
Catriona
Xavena

Not seeing a way out, Aera draws his shortsword and lashes out a the thing that just struck him

"Find the way out of this foul hole!" hisses Baraq. Instead of blindly fumbling for the exit, the aarakocra decides to blindly fumble her attacks against the sound of stone and metal. She swings her warhammer recklessly for where she thinks the sound comes from.

Bonus Action, Rage. Reckless Attack to cancel out disadvantage for Blind condition.

Spirit of the Wolf grants advantage to allies on melee attacks against any creature within 5 feet of Baraq.

Xavena runs with the others, shifting into the form of a wolf and attempting to move away from the sound of impact while looking for a way out. If none is found, she turns towards where she last remembers the statue being and keeps her guard up.

Taking a Defend action if applicable?

Wow, totally missed this one.... damn. Umm, I'll give Jabes through tomorrow for Catriona to take an action and then move us along.
