"Dorian, you take the smaller fellas, Caerys and I will fight this one right ere!" Gragas opted to use his barrel against the giant skeleton, hurling it towards the necromantic construct and causing a cascade of magical alcohol to flow out of the broken barrel.

Caerys: (Counter-roll: 1 XD) The necrophidius takes the brunt of Caerys' attack, shrieking as several of it's innumerable ribs are shattered. The creature rears back, preparing to strike at Caerys...
Gragas: (Counter-roll: 13) Gragas' barrel misses and hits the back wall, crumbling a portion of the wall away and revealing a small passage behind it. The cascade of magical alcohol slams the lesser skeletons into the wall, but inadvertently throws the Necrophidius forward along with the rest of the party, forcing them all out into the hallway.
Dorian was stunned by the sudden blast of alcohol, having been pushed out into the hallway along with Caerys and Gragas. They could now see five skeletons on either side of them, slowly walking their way with weapons drawn.
(Roll 11, counter-roll 4) Dorian shook his head to clear it, and blasted another burst of dark energy at the skeletons on the left, from the room they had just passed. Three of them were enveloped by the darkness and collapsed, lifeless.
Caerys wasn't expecting the alcohol blast, as she was not all too familiar with the Champions at all. The alcohol cascade from his Explosive Cask caused Caerys to be carried out to the hallway, and she was struggling to regain her footing with the slippery floor.
Caerys was now on her back and vulnerable. She was disoriented, and in her position, the Necrophidious undoubtedly redoubled its attack, dragging Caerys over and beginning a struggle; she reacted by having the creature bite onto her chains instead, as she attempted to grab ad smash its head against the nearby wall. ((not exactly sure how big it is though))
"Blimey!" Gragas shouted, alarmed as his own alcohol carried him out of the chamber into the hallway. He turned around, a bit dazed, but still combat ready. His cask had not reappeared yet, so he would have to make do without it.
He watched the Necrophidius take the blow from Caerys, and attempted to follow up immediately, going in for another body slam at the construct's ribs. He figured that this would be his most vulnerable spot.

(I figured I might as well post an image of the beastie you're fighting.)
Caerys: (Counter-roll: 13) Moments after it regained it's senses, the necropnidius lunged a Caerys for another bite, but clamped it's jaws down upon Caerys' weapon. The serpentine beast resisted Caerys' attempts to bash it's head into the wall, releasing the weapon and reeling backwards for yet another vicious bite....
Gragas: (Counter-roll: 5) In it's single-mindedness, the Necrophidius did not see Gragas barreling towards it until there was no time to react; The creature was crushed between the Rabble Rouser and the Crypt's walls. The Nectophidius collapsed into a pile of fractured bones with a final, ear-splitting shriek, signaling it's defeat to the party.
However, they were still up a creek, and very much so at that. There were two skeletons at the doorway to the burial chamber, two from the hall which they came from, and another five from an unexplored section of the crypt. Dorian fired another burst of dark energy, (rolled 6, counter-rolled 2) destroying a single skeleton as the others simply trampled over the bones of their comrade before swinging their rusty blades at the largest, and seemingly most threatening, target: Gragas.
(Rolled 12, 14, 2, 2, 18, 15, 7, one roll for each skeleton.)
Caerys finally managed to get some decent footing once the alcohol drained away, leaving the stone tiles soaked. She saw Gragas being swamped by skeletons, and her weapon still displaced- she looked about the dimly lit tomb, her lantern having also been taken out of her hand. Thankfully the sturdy metal lamp was intact- it would've been disastrous if the alcohol met the flame.
"Gragas! There are some tombstones scattered about! use those to smash the skeletons!" She suggested rather insistently, as a plan began formulating in her head.
With few options, she went into the space between the wall and a cracked statue, and starting pushing and heaving it- with the intent of smashing some of the skeletons that would be caught in its wake.
"Got it!" Gragas replied, noticing the skeletons close in on him. He acted quickly, grabbing a tombstone, and swinging it around experimentally, then bashing it on t he nearest skeleton's head.
Becoming even more enraged when the skeleton dodges his attack, Gragas shouts once more. "You'll get wot's comin to yah! YAHHHHHHHH!" With a mighty battle cry, Gragas swung the tombstone at the skeleton once more.

Caerys: (CR-10) The pillar makes a grating noise as it topples towards Gragas and the surrounding skeletons.
Gragas: (CR-1) The Rabble Rouser smashed three of the skeletons with his enraged swing before he noticed that the pillar was going to come down upon him.
(DODGE!!!)
Dorian dove out of the pillar's way, and prayed that the hall did not collapse upon them...
Gragas was about to contrary late himself on the successful kills, when he spotted the pillar. "Gah!" he exclaimed. He attempted to dodge out harm's way, but it was too late. The pillar landed square on The Rabble Rouser's legs, immobilizing him for the time being.
Gragas began to try and free himself, while calling out to the others. "I'm stuck. A little help would be much appreciated 'ere!"
Caerys smacked her face audibly at the sight of Gragas actually pinned by the STATUE, Not PILLAR. Perhaps she should've thought this out better; but at least they didn't have to worry about skeletons.
"Ugh... I do not have the strength to lift this statue. Perhaps if we apply oil to your legs, you can slide out from underneath it easily?"

(XD sorry)
Dorian finished off the last remaining skeletons that weren't taken down by the STATUE before he came to help Gragas. "I'll see what I can do..." A glowing aura surrounded his hands as the statue stared to shift. Forcing more mana and concentration into the spell, the statue finally started to lift off Gragas ever so slightly.
Once Dorian cast the spell, Gragas used all of his strength and managed to lift the STATUE((xD)) off of his body. With a heavy grunt, he dusted off the fine powder of the broken STATUE that had fallen on the chamber floor. "Well, that was somethin'!"
