He places his hands on his knees, standing in a sort of half crouch as he catches his breath
if you're up to it, Kivuli, I agree that's a good idea. Maybe the rest of us can make camp just inside and out of most of the weather. A couple hours of rest should see us right to begin the search.
Given your posts I decided to let Kivuli scout ahead Perception:1d20 + 10 ⇒ (16) + 10 = 26
Kivuli tiptoes up and peeks behind the wooden scaffolding, looking right into a yeti's eyes! The monster growls and drops the straw it was piling up in a make shift bed. Kivuli notices immediately that this yeti is not as big as they are told to be.. Back where the others are waiting for their scout to return Folium's ears start to itch.
Gaze (Su) A gaze special attack takes effect when foes look at the attacking creature's eyes. The attack can have any sort of effect: petrification, death, and charm are common. The typical range is 30 feet, but check the creature's entry for details. The type of saving throw for a gaze attack varies, but it is usually a Will or Fortitude save (DC 10 + 1/2 gazing creature's racial HD + gazing creature's Cha modifier; the exact DC is given in the creature's text). A successful saving throw negates the effect. A monster's gaze attack is described in abbreviated form in its description. Each opponent within range of a gaze attack must attempt a saving throw each round at the beginning of his or her turn in the initiative order. Only looking directly at a creature with a gaze attack leaves an opponent vulnerable. Opponents can avoid the need to make the saving throw by not looking at the creature, in one of two ways.
Averting Eyes: The opponent avoids looking at the creature's face, instead looking at its body, watching its shadow, tracking it in a reflective surface, etc. Each round, the opponent has a 50% chance to avoid having to make a saving throw against the gaze attack. The creature with the gaze attack, however, gains concealment against that opponent.
Wearing a Blindfold: The foe cannot see the creature at all (also possible to achieve by turning one's back on the creature or shutting one's eyes). The creature with the gaze attack gains total concealment against the opponent.
A creature with a gaze attack can actively gaze as an attack action by choosing a target within range. That opponent must attempt a saving throw but can try to avoid this as described above. Thus, it is possible for an opponent to save against a creature's gaze twice during the same round, once before the opponent's action and once during the creature's turn.
Gaze attacks can affect ethereal opponents. A creature is immune to gaze attacks of others of its kind unless otherwise noted. Allies of a creature with a gaze attack might be affected. All the creature's allies are considered to be averting their eyes from the creature with the gaze attack, and have a 50% chance to not need to make a saving throw against the gaze attack each round. The creature can also veil its eyes, thus negating its gaze ability.
Just wondering if by chance I can use my Player Character Folio re-roll on the failed save. Not sure how that works in a PbP game.
Those eyes...so full of evil and pain. I can't breathe, why can't I move? Am I a coward? Stop. I need to focus. My master said that escapologists can eventually break these conditions. What did he say to do?
Kivuli: yes you can, but what failed save? I do not see your first save. Some GM's want people to upload their folio somewhere. I trust that you are playing by the rules unless there is reason to think otherwise.
Korug: I did not notice that, blame the dice-roller ;-)
Folium: can you strike out spells that you have used on your profile or put them at used consumables? That way I can also see what you have used (I know this is your second gravity bow, did you also use a true strike?)
The yeti comes around the corner where it last saw Kivuli and sniffs the air. It then sees the Pathfinders at the base of the stairs and raises its short spear.
Folium and Aurum: Fortitude Save DC 11 after having read the gaze spoiler:
you stand paralyzed in fear. This is a mind-affecting fear paralysis effect.

When you roll a d100: high is good, so if you roll high you avoid the save or manage to overcome the concealment.

tired as he is, he grabs his mace and rushes the Yeti
will:1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7 attack:1d20 + 2 - 2 ⇒ (20) + 2 - 2 = 20 damage:1d4 ⇒ 4 grrr, paralyzed on a potential crit
Modekai, save happens at start of turn if you are within 30 feet, you are at 35. However, stairs are difficult terrain, so i don't think you can reach the yeti

Aurum steels himself against the gaze of the beast. "Don't be afraid, let him face his own emotions! Watch how you look at him, don't let fear get to you."
He ardently walks up the stairs to point at the yeti, mouth agape. A low, guttural wail emerges from his throat. He then turns away from him, scowling.
No problem Modekai, you can change your actions. Can anyone post actions for Zob?
Folium's arrow hits the yeti while Aurum blesses the entire party. Although the arrow strikes true it only enrages the yeti, who has dropped his spear and is now pounding his chests with both fists.
Korug, Zob did not need to test given that you only need to test when you are within 30 feet at the start of your turn, that is before you take actions. I will use that roll as his attack roll.
The Yeti start laughing in a weird, archaic tongue at Aurum.
Aklo:
Funny man! I kill funny man!
Zobmaggle moves up and throws a bomb in the general direction of the Yeti, missing him completely because the bomb fell short.
Scatter:1d8 ⇒ 1
Seeing his opportunity, Kivuli lunges at the beasts back as it passed by.
Attack of Opp:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22Crit Threat Confirm?:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (10) + 3 = 13lol, nope Damage:1d6 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8Sneak Attack Damage:1d6 ⇒ 6
...and I will drop into initiative.
I believe the stairs are difficult terrain and Zob is not threatening right now, so I will take a move to get into positon. Not certain if that is hard to do, so here is an Acrobatics check just in case one is nedded. Acrobatics:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12 Stealth:1d20 + 14 ⇒ (8) + 14 = 22if needed for anything Flank attack:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (5) + 3 = 8 dice=damage:1d6 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7 and Sneak Attack Damage:1d6 ⇒ 5.
So, with half move for difficult terrain and half for stealth, I should still have enough movement. Rolls and damage reflect <fatigued>
Kivuli comes out of his hiding and thrusts his estoc through the yeti's back. When pulling it back a fountain of blood comes out of the puncture wound and the yeti drops down, dead.
Panting heavily, "Well...there is no way...to tell..if he was alone...We may not have time to...catch our breath.."
Kivuli cleans his blade and puts it away. He kneels down to close the yeti's eyes.
Your time is over. As an expert, I should say you have spread enough of your darkness. I shall shut these windows to your soul.
Looking up to his comrades, "Well friends,...how should we proceed? Do you have any ...insights ...wizard?

Aurum clears his throat. "'Success occurs in measures. Tend to one's belongings first, lest one lose them reaching for more.' It would be more prudent to rest before continuing. The only concern I may have would be making sure we are not at the mercy of the weather up here."

I don't see why we would rest outside when there's shelter nearby that may also contain enemies. If there is something bad inside it will probably try to ambush us as we sleep.
Casters out of spells?
Well, resting or not, it has no effect perception. I will roll and we can apply it whenever.
Kivuli creeps up to the doors. Though he believes anything inside would have heard the brief skirmish, he is careful not to alert them further.
Stealth:1d20 + 14 ⇒ (12) + 14 = 26modified for <fatigue>
Kivuli winces and turns around to place a hand on Zob's shoulder and whispers,"I am heading that goblin mind no used to bigger leg hands. Heavy boots. You need practicing more to be move small again. Or maybe dark no-see glasses make you hit wall with face."
