Here is an update. Good news: My initial project has transitioned into a 5 month assignment. Bad news: Right now my hours have been long and and my drive as well leaving me very little time to post. I'm starting to getting into a routine which will shorten the hours a bit and then we can get rolling again.
Thanks for your patience.

There's moments when you know what your character would do in a situation, but can't do that thing because it would a) be detrimental to the group, and b) derail the game. Those are difficult moments.
I dunno. I think this group is savvy enough to roll with it. I wouldn't hold back. The key is to leave the others some hook to work with.
Edit: It's just a game. We could always retcon if we have to. Also, you could talk about it here ooc to see what the others feel.

Nah, just doing some brainstorming. I'm talking some serious Vegan Steve shit here, nothing I'd actually do in-game. The real question is what should my character do.

Wow. I can't believe my 0-level spell actually succeeded in giving the Wraith a penalty.
Also, it appears the aspergillum can be filled with a standard action. Are you proficient with maces?
Edit: On reading the item description, it only deals 1 point of holy water damage per hit. I think you are better off pouring the holy water on it as a melee touch attack for 2d4 points of damage.

Yes.

OK. My only concern was that if Owen missed with the flask, there's no second chance, but with the mace, he's got repeated tries, even though it's much less damage.

Just following up. As CH said it is a standard action to fill the Battle aspergillum. The aspergillum itself won't do any damage, but if you hit, it will do 1 point of holy water damage. (After 5 hits it will be empty.)
Battle Aspergillum: Named for the common aspergillum, a mace-like tool used by priests to sprinkle holy water, this light mace has a hollow head and a metal plug to fit the hollow's neck. When the mace strikes a creature, holy water sprinkles out through tiny holes throughout the weapon's head; creatures subject to damage from holy water take 1 point of damage in addition to the normal effect of being struck by the mace (a nonmagical aspergillum can deal holy water damage to an incorporeal creature in this manner, even if the mace itself deals no damage). After 5 hits, the battle aspergillum is empty and needs to be refilled. Filling it with holy water is a standard action that provokes an attack of opportunity (like drinking a potion). A filled aspergillum is normally carried upright, otherwise the holy water leaks out as the weapon moves.

Here is an update. Those valves I was working on trying to get out by June 30th, they are still here. Until I get can get them re-worked and shipped, I can't do much of anything else. Case in point, its Saturday and I'm at work, and I'll be here tomorrow as well. Hopefully, one more week, two at the most.
