If the doors are taken care of, loot the gold off the coffin.

With knife in hand you manage to peel off a large sheet of the gold from the side.

i help out the party member who seems most in trouble.

As Jurg is still working on the doors, you move over to help Leif Eiriksson with scraping the gold from the sarcophagus.

Finish pulling the gold off the doors then head inside the room and loot one of the smaller chests at the side of the room.

Opening the chest you find a small bundle of bandages, opening it find something that looks a lump of jerky and raw hide, all wrapped in a fine gold chain.
As you pull the gold chain free, the lump of jerky becomes wet an slimy in your hand.

With the gold stripped from the outside Leif Eiriksson and  Melvin push the lid from the sarcophagus.
The bones of some long dead sorceress sit there, wrapped in silk sword in hand and decked with finery.

Its a nice looking sword, with a silver scabbard decorated with gold chevrons and a carved jade hilt.
Picking over the rest you collect, a large chain necklace with a silver pendent, a twisted silver bracelet and Four gold rings.

With the loot sacks full and the tomb picked bare, the party look at each other and heads towards the exit and the drawn of new day.
As for what do our hero's do with there gold? that is a tale for another adventure.

Leap down and split the cultist's head open with a falling staff strike.

(Rolls basic hero's 1d8  = 9 vs 1d6 = 5)
You leap down from the rafters  and bring your staff down with your full might.
As hard woods strikes bone her skull shatters like an eggshell.
But as the body starts to fall she staggers instead back to her feet.

(There attack roll 1d6 = 4 vs 1d8 = 3)

With more of the glowing fire streaming like blood from there shattered brow, they grab your arm an wrench the staff free.

Run towards the giant cultist and start hacking at it's legs with my sword!

(Hero at - 1 for aiming. 1d8 -1 = 7 vs 1d6 = 2)
While there distracted with Jug you run towards them and take a brutal swipe at there leg, your sharp steel cuts the meat of the thigh in half.
More of the the black fire spills out from the wound.

(There attack roll 1d6 = 5 vs 1d8 = 1)
In return they smash you with a powerfull head butt, only your helmet saves your nose from being pulped
(- 1 wound)

Attack the cultist, aim for the knees.

As Bob charges at the cultist you do like wise aiming for the knee.
(1d8 = 2 vs 1d6 = 5)
But at the last moment they duck back from the blow of your mace.

( There attack roll 1d6 = 4 vs 1d8 = 4)
A snapping high kick reaches for your face but your to quick for it.

help with the giant cultist

(1d8 = 8 vs 1d6 = 5)

Melvin approaches  the giant that bleeds black fire, and as they kick at Erman's face he strikes.
His sword catches the cultists hand and makes her a stumpy as three fingers fly off into a dark corner.
(There attack roll 1d6 = 1 vs 1d8 = 6)

Spitting wisps of black fire, the cultists trys to land a wild haymaker but Melvin bob's aside from the blow.
 

Uh, try to retrieve my one axe while throwing the other into the cultist.

Leif Eiriksson  runs forwards and jumps on to the altar, (6 rolling with one hand he throws an axe and in the other he pulls it free from the dead woman's chest.

(1d8 - 1 = 7 vs 1d6 = 2)
His Axe fly true and hits home in the centre of the cultists chest.

There's a huge spray of the black fire as the cultist looks forwards with eyes gazing into the distance.
"By the serpents will... i shed this skin!" and with that she falls "dead", as dead as any mistress of the black arts can be.

As you catch your breath and look around the room you see a pair of large gold doors.

For something like this, and I'm being entirely serious, programs like Trizbort that were made for mapping text adventures would probably work well, as long as you don't mind the lack of graphics.

It looking pretty was the appeal of doing it, but i might use that if i remake it.

Lucid chart is a crap show, my doctor who chart is gone.
Hours of work mapping how every one is related by marriage, murder and 90's one night stands is gone.

Climb up one of the pillars and hide in the vaulted ceiling while the cultists are distracted by flighting.

As the cult leader call forth Arcane powers from the shadow void, you settle on hiding.
With both arms wrapping around the stone pillar, you start to worm your way up and soon find your self up among the touch soot and cobwebs.

I feel like this fight is pretty handled, so I'll loot whatever's visible while the others finish up, defending myself as needed.

You're the one who said the goal here was to loot the place. I can't get paid for dying heroically. At least I didn't try to sell the prisoner into slavery.

Knowing that he does not get paid to kill and is here for loot and plunder , you focus on the looting.
The dead cultist have rings of the same serpent with jewelled eyes patten, adding to that you find a large silver disc pendant. 

"Well damn no loot."
Look around the rooms we've been in for any loot that's been missed.

It's easy to look around the see the coins piled up on the alter, the gold candle sticks and silver teeth of the huge skull statute.
If only you could get to it...
There's still a trio of armed cultists blocking that way.

Charge in and dismember one of the cultists.

Full of vigour you charge forwards with both swords ready and meet them in a clash of steel.
(Rolls basic hero's 1d8 = 6 / 1d6 = 6 )
You thrust high and they duck low under your blade, bring there own up towards your leg.
At the last moment you jump and hit them shoulder first 1/2...
 

run around the north side and get the cultist. 

As Rufarus slams shoulder first in the cultist you dash to the left of sacrifice slab

(Rolls basic hero's 1d8,  + 1 for flank, ( 5 ) + 1 = 6 vs 1d6 = 5)
As the cultist starts to rise to feet from Rufarus's body charge your in place to strike the cultist down.
Your sword cuts a clean arc and part head from chest in one clean blow.

The whole team is currently positioned perfectly to pincer the cultists. Is anyone at all not a coward? Or are you all going to run away crying and soiling your breeches now?

If i get literally one other person to help me fight the cultists, I'll advance forward, shield up. Else, i'll back away, the same way i came in.

I might be brave, but i'm not a fool.

For a moment fear grips Erman, his wounds are deep and to there shame he can see Jurg  climb from the battle to hide like an insect
 Even Bob has abandoned him in this battle in order to pick throys from the dead.
But then Rufarus charges at the cultist nearest him, he shie's not from a warriors calling, with a charge he batters the cultist the floor and Melvin 's blade splits skull from body.

(Rolls basic hero's 1d8 = 5 vs 1d6 = 3 )
As the cultist before you turns to see there kins man die you strike, a full force blow with the mace, broze meat bone and bonme twists an snaps , the arm hangs limp for a moment before you smash it in to the cultists ear.

The last cultist steps back and sucks the Arcane power inwards, growing taller as her body ripples an becomes more muscular, the chest expands, biceps bugle as eyes start to glow.
Before your eyes she grows her body stretching in to giantess of 8 feet tall.
Body pumped by Arcane powers she grins with fire spiting from her teeth.
