Claudia shoots at Eynemb, making one of the images disappear.
You had a -4 for shooting into melee, correct? (no Precise Shot?)

Meanwhile, the shadowy tentacles wriggle from the stage, infesting the Material Plane.
Continuing to coalesce in the open area north of the stage, then manifest as a hideous shadowy rendition of an animal: forming into the shape of a large wolf, replete with ferocious obsidian spikes.

As for Eynemb, he takes a step back, both of the images of him you see, and he casts another Cause Fear spell, pointing at Mist.
Mist yelps, its eyes filled with terror! The poor wolf bolts away...

Sorry for forgetting to put in the bold.

Wylka hits Eynemb's image, and slices into nothing-ness: Eynemb is now alone.

Mist moves in to bite Eynemb, but is wary of all this magic, and misses.

Eynemb takes a step back and incants... making five more images of himself appear!

Senna helps Claudia perform.

Claudia does her actions with the puppets, helped by Mao's previous move and Senna's current aid.

The tentacles that formed into a large wolf, replete with ferocious obsidian spikes now let the wolf totally appear in the Material Plane.
All the last wayangs flee!

But all your masks suddenly let out, at the exact same time, a burst of dark light that washes over the air, and seems to shake up the wolf.

The wolf, though distraught, takes a step towards Claudia and bites at her... but though the jaw clamps around her chest, her armor resists, barely!
Luck: it was 16 damage!
She is able to carry out the ritual.

Cazlin's trepidation turns to determination when he sees the shadow wolf attacking Claudia. He advances towards it, drawing his longbow as he does so, and focuses.

Finishing the ritual will drive this thing back, right? But we won't have much of a chance to finish if it lands a bite like that on someone... Cazlin rubs the side of his longbow against the scaly skin of his neck. 'Ilyamakano, your help would be fantastic right now!'

(Taking enhancement bonus to longbow)

Cazlin aims his bow at the shadow-y wolf and fires.

Longbow, w/in 30ft: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (9) + 8 = 17
Longbow damage: 1d6 + 2 ⇒ (2) + 2 = 4

Edit: Cazlin also thinks back to other monsters he's seen to work out any similarities...

Cazlin's arrow hits the shadow-wolf.

Claudia continues with the ritual, but she is distracted by this wolf of shadows.

Mao helps Claudia, and then Senna comes over to help, as does Harjandi, chipping in... while Mist bites at Eynemb, but misses.

Wanting to go and help take down the shadow wolf but not wanting to rely on only Mist to occupy Eynemb, he instead stays to continue is attack on the evil caster. Hoping Red can get back in time to face the shadow wolf.

Wylka moves around Mist to get into a better position to attack, swinging his glaive.

Unfortunately, the acrobatics are not good enough this time, the distraction provided by the shadow-wolf must've shaken things up too much.

Wylka stabs Eynemb, making an image disappear. Eynemb reacts: "I am not the enemy... that... that... that thing is!"

The large shadow-wolf bites Claudia's leg 8 damage and upends her, tripping her: Claudia falls prone.
You see the shadow-wolf is covered in shadows and tentacles, making it hard to discern the real thing. 20% miss-chance from concealment

Cazlin comes back under the tent and spares an angry glare for Eynemb. With a minimal amount of stuttering, he spits out "H-help then!" at the antagonistic wayang.

He fires another arrow directly at the wolf-creature, once again calling mentally upon Ilyamakano to repel this monster.

Sorry, lost my post. Thought I'd posted, probably just previewed.

Claudia rolls away from the shadow thing, twisting as she goes to avoid further entanglements with its dark maw. She nimbly regains her feet safely behind Mao and Senna. "If that thing is the enemy, why have you been attacking us?!?"

"We really need your aid, Eynemb. The lives of your people are at stake. Please. Help us subdue this creature."

Mao takes a step forward and tries to kick the shadow creature.

Would you allow me to make my unarmed strikes enhanced? If so then just add it to the roll.

When you attack the Shadow Wolf can you roll for your miss chance (20% to miss).

Funneling the power of his mask into this fists and feet, Mao steps up and strikes out and hits the wolf, his fist connecting, and feeling that there is hard flesh within the shadowy tendrils.
You made a 5ft step, correct? (or a move?). Why not Flurry to get two attacks? (if I misunderstood and was a move, sorry).

Senna orders Mist to attack the Shadow Wolf, and takes a step back, herself, taking her sling out.
Mist rushes up and bites at the shadow wolf, but misses totally.

Eynemb hears Cazlin and, snapping out of his daze, rushes around the side - his images moving along with him: "I... this is not supposed to happen. This... this does not exist. The ritual is-- I though... a farce!".
He casts an arcane spell-- that fizzles when it 'hit' the shadow wolf.
Eynemb mumbles: "What? It has Magical Resistance?"

As Claudia is healed, the wolf of shadows bites at Mao, but the monk nimbly avoids the dark maw.

Eynemb casts another spell of Fear... and barely pierces the lupine's magical resistance, and TERROR overcomes the yellow eyes of this terrible beast.
You see it is about to flee!

Claudia nimbly moves the puppets around, getting help from Harjandi, and performs another part of the ritual.

Mao's blows glance of the wolf's thick dark hide for the first, but hits hard for the second.
Cazlin's arrow misses in the end, as it is caught in the fluctuating shadows... Grrr...
Wylka's glaive is stopped for a split second by the wolf's hide... but manages to bite into it nonetheless, and opens a severe gash in its flank.
Mist bites at the darker wolf, but misses.
Senna imbues her sling with magic and tosses a stone-- but the stone goes flying off in the opposite direction: Senna released it at the wrong moment! Natural 1

Terrified by Eynemb's spell, the shadow wolf turns coat and starts to dash off--
--provoking responses by Mao, Wylka and Mist, who all miss, surprised by the sudden movement.
The wolf barrels right by Cazlin who does not have enough time to launch an arrow no AoO with bow and dashes away, down the beach... and is still running.
It moves 100 feet from where it was, way off map

Eynemb moves up and casts a spell, even that far away... that pierces the wolf's magical resistance, but that the wolf shakes off Daze Monster.

Harjandi helps Claudia continue the performance, and Wylka and Senna also help... with Mist running around, yapping.
+6 to Claudia's next Acrobatics roll

Red is happy, with a magic axe... but sad there seems to be nothing to smash.

"I guess it was afraid after me insult. Hahaha." Tolinath grumbles after the laugh thinking to himself This is starting to greet ridiculous, astray in one place!

Tolinath rather than chance the shadow wolf down moves into a position better to guard the party for the woods impending return. Partying his axe as he moves whispering to it "You'll get yer chance soon."

Mao comes up to aid Claudia with the puppets.

While Cazlin aims at the shadow-wolf racing along down the beach with his longbow and releases his arrow.

Red arrives back... but it seems the fight is over.
He prepares his axe for when the wolf returns.

But the wolf will never return... for Cazlin's arrow strikes it in the back, snapping its spine. The wolf seems to break apart, becoming dark tendrils once again, that disappear one by one: the beast has returned to the Shadow Plane.

Harjandi continues helping Claudia perform the ritual, and even Eynemb steps in to help: "Sorry, I am sorry...".

Wylka and Senna look around, and step up to help too.

Thus Claudia continues the acrobatics, moving the puppets with brio, and, soon the ritual is complete!
No more threats, and you only need two more skill check (nothing adverse if you fail one, you just try again) so I will move this to the victorious end).

As Claudia operates the puppets, and the ritual is completed, rays of moonlight suddenly strike at the last pockets of thick shadows, and burn away the monochrome.
The moon is briefly swallowed by an immense shadow... and all the wayangs scream.
But then the moon reappears and you see the color has returned to the landscape and everything is calm.

The wayangs start moving back, slowly... except for one, Mayor Farzhan, who races down the beach, running towards you: "You did as I instructed. Bravo! Bravo to Mayor Farzhan, your elected official!"

He comes up to you, and starts pumping your hands, demonstrating his gratitude with hearty handshakes that quickly transform into warm embraces.
As he moves in to give Red a big hug, he calls out: "Vote Farzhan! Be safe forever!"

Harjandi looks on in bemusement.

Eynemb's dispells his images, but seems totally lost: "I did not believe this was true... I thought it was but old wive's tales... I wanted to prove to all this ritual was ridiculous..."

The Mayor hands you a decoratively carved box that contains an aegis of recovery and a pair of heavyload belts: "To help you, my faithful employees, oh faithtful followers of Mayor Farzhan".

Eynemb falls to his knees: "I recognize the error of my ways. I wanted to free our people of what I thought was a stupid superstition. I was wrong."

The Mayor waves his hand: "And you shall be appropriately punished: you are hereby barred from participation in any future ceremonies, and you must work for Mayor Farzhan!"

Everybody cheers the Mayor, and surround you Pathfinders, with joy and thanks, and they carry back to Inahiyi to party all night long, feeding you and offering you all you can drink!

You all have 1 XP and 2 PP (unless someone is in Slow Track - please tell me).
Primary mission was defeat the escaped shadow creature and helping the wayangs complete the binding ritual. Secondary was having 3 or more Trust Points at the end of the scenario (you had 8) and either losing the debate of the second trial gracefully or not killing any wayang brawlers in the first trial.

Cazlin lets out a tense breath as his last arrow fells the beast. When he returns back, he stands as a sentinel while the last of the ritual is completed. All throughout, he anxiously peers into the gloom. The moon being covered by a shadow immediately has him pointing his bow upwards, but when even that passes without danger he looks a little embarrassed at his own jumpiness.

He gives a relieved smile to his allies, whispering "All done!". He shakes the mayor's hand a little skeptically and gives silent greetings and farewells to the other wayangs. The party comes as a bit of a surprise to him, but after plenty of food and drink, his nervousness looses and he begins to ask a stream of increasingly obtuse riddles to anyone that would listen.

The next morning is one of short, stammered apologies for anyone he confused the night before.

Cazlin will keep his piercings, seems like a good memento.

Cazlin spots Farzhan noting down some his riddles, especially the ones towards the end: "For my speeches!", says the Mayor.

But, early the morning, without being able to sleep in after the ceremony and celebration, the Spider’s Silk returns to take you back to Ramparassad the land-locked city!.
The wayangs offer a cheery farewell!

Back at Old Pak's tobacco shop, you see the workers still churning up sewage.
In the shop, Old Pak is interested in hearing about your experiences, encouraging you to give details about the ritual and the festival in general, every answer bringing on a flurry of further questions.
Old Pak, on behalf of Amara Li from Goka’s Lantern Lodge, offers to pay for th reversal, free of charge, if any of you aren’t content with the body modifications you made.
At the conclusion of the debriefing, Old Pak thanks you Pathfinders for your service and notes that he will send your findings to the Lantern Lodge in Goka, where Amara Li will hear of your actions.
"Thank you very much! Have a wonderful career" he says as he pushes you out of his shop and into the street.
How are you to get back to the Grand Lodge? Not his problem... better start walking.

You completed the ritual, and all earn the Inahiyi’s Gratitude boon on your Chronicle sheet.
Additionally, you all performed at least one action attuned to the hero of your respective mask and earn the Grace of Minatan Heroes boon on the Chronicle sheet.
Any that took and keeps a modifications earns the Wayang Body Modification boon on the sheet (it is a little bonus when dealing with Wayangs).

Having partied harder than the Wayang could have predicted Red wakes up the next morning with the worst hangover. Only sleeping 3 hours doesn't help either but if he wants to get back to Absalom he needs to catch that boat.

The seas are not a dwarves best friend as many of you realize when Tolinath pucks a station at one of the railings and proceeds to flush everything from his system into the ocean. "Blargh!!! I'll be happy once we's on land. This whole ocean thing is fee the elves."

Back at old Pak's shop Tolinath politely refuses the reversals as he now has a deeper respect for the Wayang.

Thank you GM for the wonderful game and thank you all for an adventure hope to see you around the boards.

Claudia greatfully joins in the revelry. "I'm glad we could help with your ceremony. It was a wonderful experience learning about your people."

Suddenly standing outside Old Pak's shop, she looks around. "Mother, which way back to Absalom?"

Some workers come by with dirty pipes: "Careful ma'am!"-- Claudia just manages to jump aside.

Mao smiles as he writes his experiences with the wayangs. A wonderful journey indeed. He starts walking back towards the Lodge to report his findings.

Thank you for running GM. My character didn't receive any body modifications from the wayangs. A great run! Thank you!
