"Alright, let's do this thing." Tori looks over at the orb, "One of you magical guys, probably Ryjel, should look that thing over before we do anything with it."

"So? Do you feel anything strange? Be ready to drop the thing if it starts doing something funny, bones.." says Vanya clearly diffident towards ancient magical orbs guarded by skeletons.
Touching the orb sends a shock through your body. Everything goes black for a short moment and when you open your eyes, you see three large golems staring back at you. In the distance you hear your friends whisper to you, but you can't quite make out what they're saying. Outside you hear the roar of battle and shutter as a loud crash is followed by the roar of something incredible loud. The screams of the defenders can be heard to elevate in pitch and desperation. You go to reach and hand to rub your brow and you notice that rather than the armor you were wearing your hand is covered in a great plate gauntlet.
Vanya whispers to Bones, but the Dwarf seems to be a million miles away.
Suddenly you hear a crash and screams from outside. The wall has been breached.
This is then followed by an ear-deafening roar. Everyone but Bones, make a fort save.
Fort Saves <12:
You are shaken for 1d4 ⇒ 3 rounds.
This roar is then followed by a loud groan, as if ancient metal was being moved for the first time in centuries. And it's coming from the room with the Golems.
I'm assuming the Golems can't speak and that the Bones is effectively paralyzed. Can Bones voluntary release the orb?
Bones POV description
Bones looks at his golem like hands with amazement then tries to speak to tell the others, feeling his face he realizes the has no mouth or beard. He quickly realizes he is somehow in one of the golem bodies.
knowlage Arcana:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (20) + 3 = 23 for what he knows about golems
Knowing that golems are powerful fighters, bones motions to whomever can see him trying to make them understand that he Bones is in control of the golem and touching the orb would probably do the same for them. Then he heads outside to help defend the fort.
do you want me to post the golem's actions in my post within spoilers for you or so everyone can see? Until they understand what going on.
Golem action descrpition
The Golems looks at its hands as if seeing them for the first time, then after a moment feels it face as if checking for a mouth. The Golem looks around and seeing you it waves as friendly like, then makes hand gesture like holding a ball then point a finger at it like he wants you to touch the ball.
Then Golem then turns and makes his way outside to help defend the fort.
Ryjel, when you attempt to touch the orb, it zaps you lightly. There seems to be a defensive mechanism in place to prevent Bones from being forcibly removed from command of the Golem.
Outside is pure chaos. Large ape men are pouring in through a breach in the wall, slaughtering any one or anything they can get their hands on. The pathfinders are putting up a brave defense, fighting as a cohesive unit, forcing the Ape men to fight many men at once instead of just one. But the Aspis fools, the brave ones at least, are rushing forward in single combat only to be ripped to shreds.
A group of Ape Men rush the Golem as it appears, but you sense a form of automation kicking in, as the Head of the golem turns and a vent opens. Poison gas hisses from within the bowels of the great machine and engulfs the Ape Men, they collapse dead within seconds.
1d4 + 1 ⇒ (4) + 1 = 5
Bones:
You can use this poison gas attack once every 1d4+1 turns. You also know the Golem has 2 Slam Attacks at +28 for 2d10+16 damage. Your golem threatens on 19-20 at x2 damage and has a movement speed of 20 feet. I'll track HP, Saves and Immunities
Suddenly you hear the roar you heard in the ruins. But this time it is loud and clear—fortunately, you're immune the second time around to the fear it causes. The Golem turns its head and sees a large 4 armed Ape, the same size as your golem, rushing forward at you, ready to fight.
Everyone tell me what you're going to do. I'll have a map up tonight and initiatives when I get back from work
I've been pulled into a pitch that is due by the end of next week, so my posting will be severely limited for a few days, but I will get you a post each day until we finish.
Ryjel casts snapdragon fireworks and targets a square that hs a Charua-kas in it that is attacking one of the party.
Ranged Touch Attack:1d20 + 2 ⇒ (11) + 2 = 13 Damage:1d4 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4
I am having issues seeing the map. My browser won't cooperate.
