Map!
To keep things rolling!
You all buy some quite expensive Taldan clothing and accessories, put most of your other gear in a big crate and get it shrunken by a wizard for hire (please note down a 25gp spending per person. Ebon will carry the shrunken crate, which is currently the size of a cigar box. You all wash, get shaven and the remainer of your hair done by the amazing Taldan barbers and the next evening you all go to the Opera building. The guards check your tickets, your clothing and your hairstyle before they let you in, but you finally have managed to enter one of the most prestiguous opera buildings of the whole of Golarion. The premiere has benn totally sold out and you feel really lucky the local venture officer has aquierd 6 tickets for you!
The guard at the inner doors point you to the middle doors.
"Left doors is higher nobility only, right doors is middle nobility only, center doors are lower nobility and privileged commoners."

"It takes a minute to summon him forth once he is on his own plane unfortunately. However...yes I could buy a scroll that could let me summon him instantly should the need arise."
Will buy a scroll of summon eidolon and fit it in my spring loaded wrist sheath instead of the rejuvenate eidolon wand.
It's quite busy. You are lucky you got seats!
Please all join the Roll20 session (and press launch campaign!)
I will try and post links to screenshots of the map to people on mobile devices!

Indeed many are slaves to such inner 'demons'! I think it's a neat way to RP the relationship BTW. But it's not how Talwin views things. He's not a strict Abadarian, being both good and lawful. He's also from Andoran. So he's no fan of demons, or masters. But it's a wide world in the Society!
Let's just say I get the adamantine spear enchanted. I should have plenty of fame, I think. But +1 should be always available? Even on allowed special materials?
Talwin nods at Tywin, then follows the others inside, whispering:
EDIT:
"Most impressive."

Muluk, as a paladin, would definitely want to see "poor" Tywin freed, as well, and has no love whatsoever for demons.

Dang those are a lot of people
Upon entry of the giant room Tywin instantly freezes and feels completely out of place. He feels the eyes of everyone on him and starts sweating immensely.
EDIT:Graxus is a devil though ;).

Works for me. I'm not trying to incite anything like PBP. But it seems that it's a nice RP opportunity for everyone. And Talwin is definitely more lawful, in my mind, so he disapproves of devils far less than demons. But we'll leave daemons right out of it.

Devil, demon, daemon. All deserve to be destroyed. But, PFS rules prevent him from taking direct action against the creature, and his more lawful than just good.

As a servitor of Gorum, Ebon cares not about demons or devils or daemons, but rather only that they can fight!
Changed Ebon's level 2 spell from lesser restore to instant armor, so no worries about the mage armor spell.
Also Ebon will still pitch in the 25 gp, as his normal gear goes in the crate, but will also pay 150 for a separate casting of Shrink item, for his Greatsword. It'll be a patch on his tunic side under his left arm, held on with a few stitches. The remains of his dragonslayer's kit are left in the room at the Inn where they are staying.
" Hmmp. Lotta people here. I take it those seats up there along the aisle must be ours?...."
Ebon will boldly stride toward the seats he perceives as theirs...Grinning and flexing like some barbarian king along the way.

Tywin very tentatively steps forward as the others go to their respective seating. He looks around nervously as if at any moment people can see him for what he is and toss him out.

"Come on Tywin. Lets get a seat and at least enjoy a small part of this opera, before we have to get to work!"
Targost moves down the aisle to their seats and makes himself comfortable.
Male Human (Keleshite) Cavalier 2/Paladin of Sarenrae 3 || 44/44 hp (44/44 nonlethal) || AC 19/Tch 12/FF 18 || Fort +11 Ref +4 Will +6 (+4 in hot conditions, +1 vs. fire) || CMB +8 CMD 19 || Init +1 || Perception +2
Muluk follows the others to his seat.

Pulled out of his reverie, Tywin quickens his pace to get to his appointed seat as quick as possible and sits down. He had never seen a show or any form of performance before after all.

Pokey also does the sitting thing.
When you all walk to your seats and sit down a woman in one of the adjacent seats looks at you.
"Your clothing... Isn't that last year's fashion?"
Half-Elf Gunslinger (Musket Master) 5 | HP 34/34 | AC 16; Tch 16; FF 10 | F +4; R +9; W +3 | CMB+5; CMD 21 | Speed 30 ft | Init +7 | +1 Double-Barreled Musket +8/+8 (1d12+11) | Perc +15
oh good, i was afraid no one would notice! thank you for calling attention to it, now you're just going to be another current fashion person, but people will be talking about me tonight. Thank you.

Hearing the lady's comment, Ebon leans forward in his seat.
"If my outfit isn't fashionable enough, I would happily tear it off and go without!"
He says with a grin, as he flexes,poping a few stitches.

Tywin starts to sweat profusely as he seems to be afraid for every bit ofattention they call upon themselves.
Diplomacy Pokey: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (5) - 1 = 4
Diplomacy Ebon: 1d20 - 1 ⇒ (12) - 1 = 11
"Grph... Savages."

Talwin tries to smooth things over a bit.
"Please excuse my friends' rough manner. We had a dreadful mixup at our tailor's. The man didn't have our order ready, though he promised it by last week! It put us out of spirits, to be sure."
Diplomacy: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (3) + 7 = 10

We truly are a bunch or barbarians huh? :P Too bad Tywin is still shaking in his new boots.

Targost look over at the people who were criticizing their cloths.
"Well I guess living here you do not get to see the fashions from Absalom. All the rage there...called 'retro'..what was once old is now new again! Isn't it just special!"
Bluff: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (4) + 9 = 13
[ooc]Gaah...lol Well lets hope we are getting rid of all our bad rolls now...[/ooc
The lights dim, the curtains open and the show begins!
It's the debut of 'Among the Living', an epic tale of a lone Ulfen warrior named Victory who sails to the ends of Golarion, crashes off the edge of the world, and finds himself in a gothic paradise where he
falls in love with the undead queen of a jungle kingdom. It’s melodramatic, over-acted, gaudy, and tasteless—just the sort of affair Taldor’s wealthy screams to attend.
After about an hour, ss yet another twirling dancer in a brown costume festooned with bright pink, flowing silk scarves spins across the jungle set at the front of the stage, the orchestra reaches a screeching crescendo that crashes the entire opera to a halt. The dancers stand quietly for a moment, breathing heavily and listening to the scattered applause across the obviously bored Taldan audience. Suddenly, a sound like a thousand gongs shakes the entire building to its very foundation and the audience murmurs in a mixture of delight and fear. The actors and orchestra, however, flee the stage, disappearing behind the curtains.

When the noise strikes, Muluk starts awake, shaken from his nap. He reaches for his peacebound scimitar, but does not draw it just yet.

"Oh dear that is loud! Is this still part of the show?" Tywin asks tentatively.

"Well I guess that is our cue! Lets move."
Targost gets up and start to move towards the stage.
Moments after the gong, the doors crash open and a horde of zombies floods in, immediately attacking the nobles who are too shocked to run. From behind the curtain on the stage a large partly decayed minotaur and a rotting bugbear appear, with even more common zombies!

"Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear!" Tywin says as he rummles around in his fancy clothing.
"Which pocket did I put the scroll in again? I never had pockets before. There are so many!" His panicked voice exclaims until a moment later he finds it and reads an infernal incantation.

Seeing the creatures burst onto the stage, Targost gets his bow out and casts gravity bow in preparation to fight.
The zombie (green) charges from the stage towards one of the Taldan ladies.
attack: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18 hits for damage: 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (6) + 1 = 7 downing the woman.

" HAH! By Gorum! Now this is more like entertainment!"
Ebon shouts as he steps into the aisle, and throws a piece of cloth to the floor at his feet. Stooping he stands upright with a Greatsword held in his hands.....
5' step to aisle, standard action throw shrink item cloth on ground, move action retrieve Greatsword from ground.
The Minotaur Zombie shambles forward and gores a Taldan merchant.

I thought your musket was in the pile with shrunken items, cause they won't allow you to carry a gun into the opera.

And didn't Ebon have the chest? Wondering if I can grab and drop it. I know Pokey wanted to try hiding his musket in his clothes, but I think the GM's point is there is no reasonable way to conceal such a firearm on your person. In any event, just let me know if one of us can get the gear ready.

Talwin, you are able to take the box off Ebon and activate it. (And indeed there's no way you can hide a musket under your clothes.)
Ghosting Talwin
Talwin steps to Ebon, takes the shrunken weapon crate and throws it on the ground to activate it.
Pokey retrieves his wand and works some magic before and stepping into the isle and picking up and loading his weapon.

Muluk sprints up the aisle, brandishing his scimitar. He slashes at the first target he reaches (blue zombie). "Sarenrae, grant your humble servant your blessings!"
Muluk vs. Red Zombie: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27
Damage (scimitar): 1d6 + 4 ⇒ (6) + 4 = 10
Getting rid of the peacebond will take a standard action, but I'll let the rolls stand for next round!
The purple xombie and the bugbear zombie charge forward
To Hit: 1d20 + 2 + 2 ⇒ (7) + 2 + 2 = 11
To Hit: 1d20 + 6 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 6 + 2 = 12
But the Taldan privileged commoners are actually privileged and are missed!
The crowd finally manages to see that the zombie onslaught is not part of the play and start running!

On the roll20 you have Targost marked as Talwin
