I imagine the coffins are hard to scale, and our brittle enemies will find it difficult to climb the relatively smooth surface. So maybe it buys a few seconds, but it does its job of funneling the monsters to either side instead of head on... right?
Yeah, that's about the thick of it. I mean, other than that, there's only so much surface area sekeltons can scale on those coffins. So it would only be about one or two making it to the top at a time, every minute or so.
Raiya dodged out of the way of a large fist the size of her body, seemingly the millisecond before the fist came down upon the ground where she once stood. She had jumped backwards a few feet, making sure the fist would whiff past her just enough. She then used her electrically enhanced body to jump in the air ten feet, and used an infused Iaijutsu slash to sever the large ogre's arm at the elbow.
The arm fell down with a crash, crushing a few skeletons as it did. The Ogre's head turned down, as if to look at the severed arm with his red glowing hollow eyes. The arm on the ground seemed to lift itself up, and reattach itself at the elbow.
It can heal? Raiya thought.
Then she looked behind herself to see the path that she had cleared, dismembering the skeletons, had filled back with the same skeletons she dismembered.
That was when she had glanced Nemo firing off some shots of his revolver, popping each skull as if it was amusement park game.
"That's it!" Raiya shouted in a tone of epiphany.
The ogre raised it's skeletal fist to the sky, it's eyes began to glow deeper shade of crimson, and mana began to collect around the fist. It was clear the ogre was looking to wipe everyone out in one go. But Raiya moved swiftly.
She launched herself up ten feet onto its rib bone and up another ten feet until she was level with the skull. She charged her mana inside the odachi, and before releasing the odachi from the scabbard, she shouted, "DENKI NO KENJUTSU: SEN HEBI NO KIBA (Electricity style: thousand snake fangs)"
In an instant, what looked like a flurry of blue crescent shaped lights consumed the area surrounding the skull of the ogre. Immediately the skull fell to pieces, including fragments of a large red mana crystal. Raiya stood on the shoulder of the still standing, but now fully lifeless, set of ogre bones.
"THE SKELETONS ARE BEING ANIMATED AND USING MAGIC THROUGH THE MANA CRYSTALS IN THEIR EYES! TAKE OUT THEIR HEADS!" Raiya exclaimed out to the others who were stacking coffins, probably in an attempt to provide themselves cover from any magic attacks that may come their ways.
The legion of skeletons moved towards the group's barricade, a few of them launching themselves at it, and crawling up it. Others walking around it at flanking them from the sides.

Raiya's display of her mana-infused Iaijutsu technique was just a small sample of what she was capable of. And she was about to display another portion of her capabilities. The right side of her mouth curled up in a smirk as she got confirmation from the others that the Ogre was indeed her target.
The giant ogre skeleton lumbered in the midst of the massive army of the undead. It's eyes, unlike the other skeleton's eyes which were glowing blue, emitted a deep red. Whoever originally made these tombs must have had a massive amount of adulation for mana crystals, taking the time to augment all their dead with mana crystals. Raiya was a bit impressed by the dedication.
Raiya extended her right hand in front of her face and clenched her thumb pinky finger and ring finger, extending her bird finger and index finger"BIRI BIRI NO SOKUDO!" Raiya shouted. Immediately she was shrouded in a crackling aura of electricity once more, one of her favorite Shinto spells that she picked up from Japan.
After the spell was cast, she crouched down into a running stance and bolted at 70 miles per hour in the direction of the ogre. There was a large amount of skeletons in her way, but in a display of blinding speed she used Iaijutsu to draw her odachi within a nano second, and infused her sword with mana increasing the size of the slash, immediately slashing an arc of ten feet in front of her. She continued to do this, placing her sword back in the saya each time, every ten feet until she had cut a path all the way to the Ogre, leaving a pile of bisected skeletons in her wake.
Now to deal with you. Raiya said at the foot of the Ogre skeleton.
A group of five skeletons rushed at Artos, their eyes glowed brightly as they closed in. Once they got within immediate proximity they froze up like statues, ice crystals formed on their skin from the humidity within the dank crypts.
Eventually the skeletons that were being reflected back by Travis's spell, grew wise and backed off from him. One of the skeletons in front of him held out his skeletal palm, his eyes glowing brighter than usual, a ball of mana began to form in its hand. It was clear it was about to release a spell at Travis.
The skeletons around the skeleton whose head exploded, seemed to grow angry, and ten of them rushed Nemo.

I'll have a post up tonight. Are we free to kill these things as we see fit?
Just make a neutral post, and I'll have things attack you.
I know it says full up there but i got it from a...slightly questionable source that you might be accepting a few people...
So, uh, are you?
That depends. Make an OC and I'll tell you if we are or not.
"Looking at how everything is made of mana crystal, in a reverent almost religious manner... this is definitely not Academia's doing." Raiya replied to Travis.
She picked herself up off the ground from the spot she was sitting on, and tucked away her pewter flask inside her jacket.
"But you knew that already, didn't you Felix?" Raiya asked and waited a few seconds for a response that didn't come.
"I'll take that as a yes." Raiya sighed.
Raiya then held her left hand out the the side, channeling mana to her hands and visualizing her katana, and beckoned it from her mana inventory.
In a bright blue discharge of electrical mana, a sheathed four foot long odachi appeared in her hand.
"And my guess, is that these mana crystal coffins are not just decorative." Raiya said, her expression darkening.
She walked over to the opening to the room they had come through from the corridor.
Raiya stopped three feet before the opening, and took a slightly crouched combat stance. She reached her right hand over slowly, charging mana as she did so, until her hand reached the hilt of the katana. Immediately she used her left hand which was holding the saya (scabbard) of the sword, in tandem with her right hand on the hilt, and her mana she had just enhanced her arms with to draw her sword lightning fast in a horizontal slash.
The slash arced out crossing the threshold of the room to the corridor, the slash was faster than the normal eye could follow, and within that same fluid motion she had placed the sword back into the saya. Within a half a second of the sword crossing the threshold of the room to the corridor, a large door came crashing down, blocking the entrance and leaving them sealed in.
Raiya turned back to face the group, and saw that the coffins that were lining the walls of the chamber were glowing fiercely now. Each coffin was slowly sliding open, and the bones within them began to stir. Slowly the skeletons in each coffin came alive and began to crawl out onto the ground. Soon the group was surrounded by a legion of the undead, about two hundred in total.
"Now, this is the type of action I've been waiting for." Raiya smirked.
Suddenly there was a large rumbling and the floor in the middle of the room opened, revealing a large coffin. It contained the bones of an ogre, about twenty feet tall.
"Well, if no one wants to take the Ogre, I will." Raiya's eyes glowed brightly.

Beyblade
Let it R.I.P
Let it R.I.P
Idk, but we can't start until everyone is in the room because this next part requires everyone.
Raiya listened, seemingly distant and disinterested. But when Nemo finished Raiya let out a scoff and her eyes narrowed.
"If I found the bastard that killed my parents, I wouldn't choose such an underhanded tactic as poisoning them. Only the weak choose to use tricks to bring down the strong. No, if I was in her same position, I would have trained as much as possible until the day I was confident in my strength. And then I would have beaten and emasculated him in front of the audience. I would have made sure he felt the full weight of what he did before he died, and just how foolish he was for underestimating me, before killing him. I would want to see the regret in his eyes, I would want to capture in my mind the very moment he realized he erred in his assumptions. And to savor the pitiful cries of mercy from a man who could spare none unto others." Raiya explained.
She gulped down another sip and let the burning sensation of both the alcohol and her anger consume her for a moment. She would find who killed her parents and make them pay, eventually. And as soon as she could figure out how to get out of her deal with Nemo, she would go back to amassing the resources to do just that. After all, it was her curiosity after leaving the Arcanocracy rhat had lead her to the truth that her parents were murdered. And just a few more underworld connections, and she was sure she could pinpoint the perpetrator.

"I saw some of that in a health food store once. I didn't care too much because I rarely drink anything that is non-alcoholic." Raiya replied. " Though, I've never heard of St. Germain. I'm assuming that is an alcoholic variant of the cordial?"
