about you, but I think we can take whatever is likely to be behind this door.
Risk. It's what we do." Then, more to himself, "baby needs a new house, and
all the accompanying accoutrements. And fewer live devils and demons and
whatever other scaries might be behind door number only"

Okay, so nothing on the door or near it. Good.

Besides the plethora of party magic, only the still warm bracelet that Ozor
wore detects as magical. Plus the darkness and Xander's new continual light.

She casts the last of her Detect Magic spells.

Subject: [stoddard] More in the secret passage
Ozor goes first, but somehow Ahearn is missed (must be his mother).
Ahearn grabs up his sword from the ground and still hits twice. Sean misses
with Alga (who doesn't detect any valuables or sliding rooms - he will blame
the miss on being asked to concentrate on those other things instead of killing
the nasty creature before him). However, Sean will score a hit with the torch
which does some nasty damage and breaks up Ozor's chanting changing it to
screaming.
Hagar, clearly the master warrior, somehow makes a nearly perfect
thrust into Ozor as well. Xander will cast a continual light onto the ceiling
which seems to help.
The continual light must have done the trick. In the following round,
The party again goes first. Ahearn will hit twice, Sean does more fire damage,
and Hagar adds what might be the final thrust. Ozor falls burning. The flames
will consume him unless someone purposely puts him out.
Beyond him, there is another 25 foot of slightly wider passage, unlit,
but no longer magically dark. Lots of runes, that for some reason the dice gods
say Cara has no problem reading generally thanking Bune for knowledge and
power. There is a heavy stone door cut into the end of the passage. The runes
on the door state, "The master of the runes concealed here runes of power.
Disturbing them will bring maleficence and insidious death to he who breaks or
unseals this door. The prophecy of destruction will call on legions of the dead
and devils"
Actions?
