Traps: 2 pressure plates right in front of Botanya, another one right after the two sword-wielding undead, and the top-most box on the lowest level has antennas.
Yes, TNIM already found it. But also yes, thanks, better to have the information here with this post as well.

Traps visible on new screen- two bolt chests. Top floor has two pressure plates and a trapdoor that drops onto the pressure plate below. Second floor from top has another pressure plate.
Bottom floor treasure trove has a stalkroach in the top chest.
Yes! I did not see the trap door. That is a lot of traps to point out and to avoid – except if we use them: open the trap door, drop something on the plate below, and hope to harm the two undead next to it by whatsoever comes from the box on the left.
we can also test if laras poison sting triggers traps

That locked door must lead down. In the Chapel (see turn 0 and 1) locked doors showed as locked on both sides of the door. The imp door isn’t locked, so the locked door doesn’t lead to the imp.

Wow, would you look a the size of that BOLEM (bone & golem)? Must have been made from owlbear bones or something. At least partially.
The person with the white face/mask (not sure which), is probably the source of all the undead here (might be a necromancer, a lich, a combo of both, any number of other things)… At least it looks like they have the next candidate for re-animation on their table, and a whole chest of spare parts on the right of them
And nice job everyone on pointing out all the suspicious areas before I could. Thanks. 🙂
Given its looks, I would suspect it has a Big Wraith in its construction, as well as Owlbear claws.

Kamau: Drink the ectopotion.
Botanya: Go back upstairs and then go open the sarcophagus on the top floor, formerly guarded by two zombies.
Ricki: Go downstairs with Lara and point out the traps for her. Back up away from the pressure plates and stand ready to fight any Zombie that makes it way to you,
Lara: Follow Ricki. Drop your Pick onto the trap door that she points out so that it’ll fall onto the pressure plate below. Just make sure to avoid the pressure plates in the process as Ricki points them out to you. If this was a free action, stand ready with Ricki to fight the zombies if they come looking for you.
Not completely happy with this, but it’s a start at least.
That is a point, I wasn’t thinking about Coc. Excluding him, I overall don’t think it’s worth the risk, but including him it might be…

I’m sure she doesn’t feel it, but Botanya has actually been super helpful this dungeon.

Botanya: Go back upstairs and then go open the sarcophagus on the top floor, formerly guarded by two zombies.
Ricki: Go downstairs one floor with Lara, while avoiding the traps (trapdoor and pressure plates), and point out the traps for her. Back up away from the pressure plates and stand ready to fight any Zombie that makes it way to you,
Lara: Follow Ricki. Make sure to avoid the pressure plates in the process as Ricki points them out to you. Stand ready with Ricki to fight the zombies if they come looking for you.
Copied from TNIM’s plan, except I think it’s a bad idea to try to fiddle with a trapdoor surrounded by pressure plates.
If you’re not gonna mess with the traps, you might as well have Ricki go talk to Coc instead. No point in moving both Lara and Ricki down to do nothing. Could also have Lara look into moving the tomb or lid to drop it on the weird floor one screen left.
Botanya: Go back upstairs and then go open the sarcophagus on the top floor, formerly guarded by two zombies.
Ricki: Go one room left, ask Coccyx about the necromancer, try again to see of Coccyx can be recruited.
Lara: Check if the already-opened tomb is moveable

Kamau: Drink the potion of ectoplasm on the floor.
Botanya: Go back upstairs and then go open the sarcophagus on the top floor, formerly guarded by two zombies then move next to Kamau.
Ricki: Go downstairs, avoid all traps on the way to the bolt chest to open it, then rejoin Kamau upstairs while avoiding all traps on the way again.
Lara: Go a room left to talk to Coccyx. Ask him about imps or necromancers deep in the tomb, in particular if doing something with them might change his behavior.
Explanation:
We found interesting things in this room that might be key to recruiting Coccyx, let’s get more info about that.
Ricki can shrug off even an explosive bolt without a scratch. Her pet can survive it as well.

There is also a shaded plate between the top two pressure plates.

This is a great point. Even if it didn’t do a ton of damage you might break the armor on the one zombie.

I vote the name be SKULLEM.

Can we not open any more cursed stuff until we’ve finished the main plot?
Once the main is finished the dungeon is automatically over
I stand by the request
The cursed things might have tools to make dealing with the main plot easier. We also still have no obvious way to recruit Coc.
