Season of Ghosts

Enora, your second attempt successfully dispels the Alarm spell.

Though thoroughly horrified by the grisly discovery under the pantry's floorboards, there's little you can do for the victims now except bring their murderer to justice. With the way down to Black's hidden lab uncovered - and hopefully with Black none the wiser about your arrival now that his Alarm has been dispelled - the path forward seems clear. Of course there are two other rooms on the Doll House's top level that you haven't investigated yet...

Season of Ghosts

Understandably nervous and on edge after what you found in the pantry, several of you give the last two unopened doors a very thorough inspection - mundane and magical alike - before daring to open them. To your relief, neither door seems to be warded or trapped in any way and so Hanzi opens the westernmost door while Damiel carefully eases open the eastern door.

Both of these rooms appear to be part of the living quarters; each modestly furnished with a bed, a wooden armoire, and a small desk. Damiel and Enora can see, lying out on the bed in the eastern room, a set of fine clothing, fit for a male merchant. Meanwhile, Hanzi and Ashara note that the armoire in the western room reveals several floral print dresses that are also finely made but are of a rather outdated, matronly style.

A thorough search of each room reveals nothing out of the ordinary, save two journals - a worn-looking journal at the back of a drawer in the eastern room's desk and a small, leather-bound journal tucked neatly under the pillow in the western room. Neither journal seems particularly remarkable, largely detailing mundane happenings about the Doll House though they often describe the same events from two different perspectives.

Linguistics (DC 12):

In spite of the two differing viewpoints represented by the two journals, they're both clearly written by the same hand - the same one that wrote the 'To Do List' that you found back in Black's office at the Golemworks.

Hanzi looks around and sniffs at the supposed clues and details Overabundance of caution set aside, can we proceed yet?

Damiel comes out to show the others a journal he found, comparing it to one Hanzi found he quickly comes to the conclusion "These we written by the same hand. Same as the note back at the golemworks. I'm starting to think either Black and his Mother have the same hand attached, OR maybe they are the same person." This guy's got more issues than a waitress with no arms.

"Yes Mr Hanzi and Mr Karn, I believe we're ready to go down stairs now." Before they do however, Damiel swallows down an extract for himself. Barkskin Then offers up his enlarge person and displacement extracts.

"Karn, would you use a magic potion? This displacement would really help keep things from hitting you. And Hanzi, this enlarge would help you do more damage if you wanted." He holds them up for them to figure out.

Basically those are the two infusions I've got that don't have a great use to me so I'll let you all decide, but I wanted to share. I've also got a reduce person but that seems more situational then combat orientated.

Karn gets a giddy grin on his face, fubs his mitts together, and then presses the button. Lets see what happens now? This golem maker has much to answer for thus far given everyone's reaction to this place and the office before.

Damiel drinks down a couple other vials of stuff to bolster his defenses.. of the stomach mostly.

Soothe Syrup Damiel’s soothe syrup grants the drinker a +5 alchemical bonus against nausea and sickening effects for 1 hour.

Twitch Tonic Damiel’s twitch tonic grants the drinker a +2 alchemical bonus against sleep, paralysis, and staggering effects for 1 hour. Once per day, drinking it can also grant a new saving throw against any such effect that existed before drinking.

He wipes his face off with a hanky and is ready to continue.


Season of Ghosts

After making a few last preparations the go-ahead is given and at long last Karn gets to push the button to open the way forward. When he does, a stack of what had seemed to be empty crates suddenly slides back and reveals a set of narrow, rickety stairs leading down.

You cautiously descend the stairs into a wide tunnel that stretches underneath the Doll House, with uneven wooden planks serving as floor, walls and ceiling. Stacks of crates, chests, sacks, bolts of fabric, and even a discarded love seat clutter this yawning corridor. Piled near an open chest are several journals while numerous portraits of a stern-looking woman glare into the room. Yet another painting portrays this same woman surrounded by children - four girls and a boy. Rather disturbingly, the girls’ faces in the portrait have been melted and contorted as if by acid. The air is musty and putrescent...the source of which you quickly realize is the gnarled and bloated corpse, stitched together with bits of other bodies, that sits in a moldering rocking chair. It’s dressed in a stained, floral print dress with matching slippers that look surprisingly pristine amid the rest of the dust and decay. Light spills into the dim chamber from an open doorway at the hall’s eastern end.

The current light level in here is Dim Light without some sort of additional light source.

Enora maintains a light spell on the end of her staff. She almost shrieks as she sees the "woman". "Why did he attack the Heidmarch manse, though? Was he looking to replace... ugh."

She maintains the rear and looks for trouble.

Damiel swiftly steps into the shadows and Enora renders herself invisible, now just a floating light as far as the casual observer is concerned. As the group carefully edges further into the hallway...

*BANG!*

A dusty old coat rack tips over, clattering to the ground. But there doesn't seem to be anyone there...

Or is there?

Damiel:

You think you catch a sound, very soft, coming from behind one of the crates. It almost sounds like...giggling?

Damiel stops and points to behind a crate [smaller]"Something's back there! Giggling?" He draws out his very dull and underused dagger.

Hanzi is a bit unnerved by all of this - even by his standards this place was pretty spooky. This whole continent is haunted. At least in Tien our ghosts are not all this creepy!

Ashara studies the room but does not ahve the means to make creatures appear...


Season of Ghosts

As Karn advances on the crate and shoves it aside, he finds...nothing but a porcelain doll, with bright blue eyes and dark curls. The doll wears a blue dress with a name embroidered near the hem - 'Lucy'. It stares at Karn, gaze empty and unblinking...

*creeeeeak*

This new sound catches you by surprise and as you spin around to look, you see one of the nearby chests now sits open where it had been closed moments before.


”Damiel” | Male N Medium Elf Alchemist 7 Temp HP 17| HP 59/59 | AC (24)17, T 14, FF (20)13 | CMB +5 CMD 19 | F +8 R +11 W +(3)4 (+2 vs. enchantments, +4 vs. poison, immune to sleep) | Init +4 | Perc +12 SM +5 | Speed 30ft | bomb 5/14 boro bead 1/1 | Active Conditions: False Life, Heroism, barkskin +3, Shaken, twitch tonic, sooth syrup, see invis, shield, haste

Damiel furrows a brow and pulls a wand from his belt, he speaks softly a word of activation as he touches it to his temple before restowing it away. See invisibility.


Season of Ghosts

Suspecting shenanigans, Damiel pulls out a wand and activates it, allowing him to see the invisible for a short period of time. But as he looks about the hallway he doesn't see anything different or anything that seems amiss...

"Ahu-hu-hu..."

Now everyone can hear it...a high-pitched, child-like giggling! But now it comes from a different direction than before, this time from a stack of crates near the rocking chair that holds the stitched corpse.


”Damiel” | Male N Medium Elf Alchemist 7 Temp HP 17| HP 59/59 | AC (24)17, T 14, FF (20)13 | CMB +5 CMD 19 | F +8 R +11 W +(3)4 (+2 vs. enchantments, +4 vs. poison, immune to sleep) | Init +4 | Perc +12 SM +5 | Speed 30ft | bomb 5/14 boro bead 1/1 | Active Conditions: False Life, Heroism, barkskin +3, Shaken, twitch tonic, sooth syrup, see invis, shield, haste

"Someone check for magic here... there is nothing invisible, maybe this is just magical trickery." Hopefully. Damiel holds his ground and continues looking around the room.

Hanzi takes no chances. He knew that there was but one way to deal with ghosts and goblins and ghouls. Only one way to handle all these bedknibs and broom sticks.

Brute Force.

He pulled his black adamantine katana and began slashing wherever he heard noises.

CRASH

SLASH

CHUNK

He wasnt scared....not scared at all.


Season of Ghosts

As Enora studies the room for magical auras, she's able to catch the effect on the wooden chest before it fades away completely - a simple cantrip, Open/Close. Meanwhile, Hanzi - who is certainly just taking care of business and not spooked in the least - begins hacking and slashing anywhere he hears any noises. Wood splinters and papers go flying as his katana hacks into crates and neatly slices through journals and books like a hot knife through butter! As he does, the giggling gets louder...and begins to emanate from several spots throughout the hall, accompanied by voices...

"Oh dear...I think we've scared him, poor thing..."

"Yes, I think you're right Lucy! But he's making such a mess..."

"He is - and in front of Mother, too! How rude!"

"It *is* rude, isn't it Isabella? Perhaps we should teach them some manners, before *dear brother* gets to them first!"

At that, a rustling and clattering is heard as dolls - four of them - climb to their feet. Four sets of glassy eyes bore into you as the giggling grows louder...and louder...and louder...

Damiel leans back, quite creeped out as the dolls come to life and start running around. "These creatures are soulbound dolls, small sentient constructs created using the fragments of other creatures’ souls... sounds like his sisters?"

He draws out a batch of explosives to toss as soon as he can remember if they are particularly vulnerable to cold or fire.

Hanzi has had quite enough of all of this and when he sees targets of opportunity - creepy dolls as it were - he has decided he has hat quite enough of all of this.

He advances on the yellow doll and makes a valiant slash at him.

I AM NOT SCARED. SAMURAI DON'T GET SCARED! He mutters through teary eyes.

Season of Ghosts

Damiel knows that these soulbound dolls are constructs, like all of Black's other creations, and bear the same general immunities and traits that all such things have. But more specifically, he's also heard that this particular type of construct resists weapon strikes unless said weapon has been enchanted in some manner. Otherwise they have no special defenses.

Construct Traits and DR/2 Magic.

Keeping this in mind, Damiel readies a bomb for the first doll that strays too close while Ashara offers up a blessing for the group. Enora feels more sympathetic towards the dolls and begs them for aid against Black, promising a return to their original forms. One of the dolls, wearing a red dress to match her fiery red hair, turns toward the sound of Enora's voice. The embroidery on this one's dress designates her as Catherine.

"You're looking for little Chrysalis? How nice of you to come to play with him! He usually has to bring his own playmates," the doll giggles. "But oh how they scream! Do you want to scream too?"

On the other side of the hall, Hanzi loudly proclaims that he isn't afraid of the ridiculous little dolls as he steps up and delivers a slash to the doll wearing yellow! Hanzi finds that his katana's blade seems to be dulled slightly as it connects, but the blow still leaves a satisfying slice in the doll's body.

"Ouch! That actually hurt," yellow, her embroidered dress naming her Isabella, sniffs indignantly. "Such a brute! You're no better than Mother or Chrysalis!"

Ok if they have no particular resistance to cold or fire then Damiel would have tossed a frost bomb at yellow. They are likely immune to the stagger.

No worries Mykel, hope you're feeling better now!

Not really concerned with whether it's frost or fire now, Damiel heaves his bomb at Isabella and connects square against the doll's painted face...which explodes in a shower of porcelain shrapnel! But as the pieces rain down and settle across the floor of the hallway you all hear, rather than a death wail or cry of pain...the soft sound of giggling.

"Heehee...heeheehee...death...is only the beginning..."

Meanwhile, Mykel dashes up to Catherine in Red and tries to cut the strange little demon-doll down but the doll barely manages to duck away from the blow!

"Oh no, you killed Isabella...how dreadful," Catherine remarks in a dry, sarcastic monotone and then giggles, unable to help herself. "She'll be back, you know. Mother always shatters us and Chrysalis always puts us together again!"

"Silly dolls. Karn suggest give up before Karn break you all." Karn rushes forth to confront Lucy. (Double Move)


Season of Ghosts

@Mykel - Actually yes, that does make a difference.

While Karn advances on Lucy time seems to wibble and wobble for a moment, stretching out like a rubberband...and then snapping back to reality! Red doll Catherine now sports a deep slice across her little abdomen, the two pieces barely held together by a few shards of porcelain.

The three remaining dolls suddenly drop all pretense of innocence or even sanity - as tenuous as that was - and scream as they tap into some sort of strange rage, drawing tiny daggers as they do! Both Catherine and Lucy are close enough to Mykel and Karn respectively that this leaves them, briefly, wide open to a retaliatory strike.

Mykel and Karn each get an AoO against their respective targets.

And the last doll, Marie, comes racing towards Karn like something out of a penny dreadful novel!

Damiel moves up next to the old couch and tosses another frosty gift, this time at Lucy in her blue dress. "Deal with them quickly." He says, grinning a bit at the explosion that follows.

If Marie is still up Karn will direct his attacks against her. If she falls he will direct any remaining attacks against Lucy.

Karn's anger at the dolls attempts to harm him surges through his blood and he unleashes that anger upon the dolls. "Blessed be destruction!"

"I'm so sorry..." Enora holds back the tears and raises her staff. Two Scorching Rays erupt from the staff as she turns visible.

I'll aim at Mykel's target first, then whichever one Karn didn't kill.
I'm blessed, invisible and shaken, and these are ranged touch attacks.

Season of Ghosts

Perhaps feeling some sort of pity for the strange, mad dolls - or disappointment that they don't seem to be putting up much of a fight - Karn slices Marie in Green right down the middle as she begins to rage and cuts the little doll's tantrum off before it really has a chance to begin.

"What did we do...to deserve...this fate?" Marie whispers, her voice fading away to silence.

Denied her shot at Marie in Green, Ashara's bolt instead flies true and sticks into Lucy in Blue's shoulder, jostling her a little bit with the force of the blow but not doing quite as much damage as normal. Then Damiel steps around a dusty old couch and heaves a frost bomb at Lucy - which explodes as it strikes her and sends another shower of porcelain shards and tattered clothing in all directions!

"Hee...at least this time...was different..." you hear Lucy's voice whisper before falling silent, hopefully for good this time. "Thank you..."

Bereft of any other targets, Karn takes a single step over to Catherine in Red - already quite battered - and ends her pitiful doll existence with a single stroke of his greatsword.

"Do you know what it's like...to be brought back...only to be shattered again and again...?" Catherine's voice asks softly...and then the hallway falls silent once more.

Combat Over!

Save your staff charges, Enora. Karn's AoO took out Green, Ashara and Damiel dropped Blue, and then Karn's regular action finished off Red.

"So much for our hopeful surprise." Laments Damiel as he picks his way through the stacks of stuff towards the other end, nudging things with his boot or dagger to look as he goes. Continue with the take 10 Perception: 22

"Is anyone injured? If not best prepare yourselves. I still have that enlarge infusion here if anyone will want it." He shakes the little vial and raises his eyebrows.


Season of Ghosts

With a heavy sigh Damiel puts the encounter with the dolls out of his mind and continues his search through the hallway all the while edging closer and closer to the doorway at the far end. While doing so he finds something potentially useful - a false bottom in one of the chests that hides several potions: 4 Cure Serious Wounds and 4 Cure Moderate Wounds.

Now with nothing else to hinder her own searching, Enora is able to complete her own scan of the hallway for magical auras. To her surprise - and possible disgust - the pair of slippers on the feet of the bloated corpse in the chair glows with an unmistakable aura of magic. Though she, or maybe Damiel, have to get closer to the corpse than they might like to examine the slipper it's otherwise no trouble to identify them as Slippers of Spider Climbing.
