Talking to himself but out loud,Holy shit what the hell did I drink last night?, begins looking around the room for an ugly woman. Well at least i didn't make that mistake again.. Bleary eyed Frank begins to look a bit closer at the other people in the room. Shit maybe I did make that mistake again.

Frank will walk over to [next person to post] and poke them a bit to wake them up. Hey, who are you? Do you have any idea what the hell happened last night?

"What da hell?  Who're you?  Where is dis?  Where's my bow?"

Terek begins looking around the room, at Frank and then the others.  He prods the person closest to him [next new person to post].

"Hey!  Wake up!  Wha's goin on?"

Your a goblin, deal with it. You may be different than the "gits", besides I don't hate goblins they are just a pain in the ass and can't brew for shit...ok maybe i do hate them.

Last think I remember I was drinking in a tavern and i would like to get back, i was about to get money off of some stupid human who wanted to see if he could out drink a dwarf.

I was setting off on a mission of extermination!  Clearly my foes only wer feigning unintelligence, and attempted to stop my quest before it began!  They must be quivering in fear of me!

Chauser takes a look around (take 10:15), trying to find any irregularities in the cave like an exit.

Torches flare to life in scorns along the wall. The room is devoid of decoration, but its door is framed by heavy stone structures sculpted with runes in intriguing patterns. These intricate frames are beautifully crafted, in angelic depictions. The ceiling has a crack running through it, from which a large stalactite hangs from.

Chauser grabs a torch and starts trying to read the runes.

I hope this isn't another one of those "speak, fiend, and enter" trick-puzzles.  Took us months to get Jeffery exorcised.

Once the torchs light, Galon finally stirs
"Manticorebelt! wait...whats going on...?" He scans the immidiate area, his eyes finally settling on the goblin "who are you people?" He turns to the still sleeping people "and why is that guy drooling?"
there is roughly a 99% chance that this post is an obscure reference to SOMETHING.

A pale man sits in a corner, a crystal with spidery legs perched on his shoulder.  He seems lost in thought.  As the torches light up, the crystal skitters to his other shoulder and he stirs.  He mutters softly, "Oh, they can see me now?  I should probably introduce myself then."

As he stands up, the crystal skitters to the ground and moves to each person in turn as if examining them.  It then returns to him, and he bows slightly at the group in general.  Eyes unfocused as if concentrating on something else he says,  "Greetings, I am Dalanath.  Where am I?"

The runes have a familiar style to them, but they make no sense to you.

"We're underground!  Deep in the furthest holes of the Otyugh Conspiracy!  These runes, runes that even I, Chauser Verde, have never seen the like of, only serve to confirm the fact!  Behold the oozing of the ceiling, and the filth that surrounds you.  I expect the dwarf's cunning abilities with stonework to bear witness to my assessment!  There's no other explanation than a subterranean imprisonment!"

"Imprisoned? I can't be imprisoned! I haven't even decapitated a manticore! How will I ever butcher random magical creatures in a prison!?!?!" He grabs the nearest person and starts shaking them violently.

Dalanath pipes up again.  "Excuse me, is there something wrong with you people?"  Not waiting for an answer, he goes to examine the runes.

Terek heads off away from the commotion and starts examining the walls for anything unusual.  He'd check the door, but he's unsure about his companion's mental health, so he's staying out of arm's reach from everyone.
