I suspect you didn't mean the power of a good attitude when you said positive energy, so I don't think Lleidr has many options at this point, and Will is his worst save.
Lleidr will withdraw from the room. If he can, he'll grab Selia's hand and pull her out with him.
"Be on your guard, I'm getting a bad feeling...
Selia follows Lleidr's lead, oblivious, as usual, to what happens around her...
Unfortunately, Selia cannot act at the moment, since she was taken by surprise by the particular effect in this room. Ned, can you give us an Initiative roll?
Nicholae Religion
Its a spirit of the cold of death!
Channel energy
Breath frosts in the air and fingers of rime slither across the walls. Nich, you immediately recognize this as a haunt-type effect, vulnerable to channeling.
Before this effect can manifest itself further, holy energies bath the room in light upon Nicholae's recitation of ancient sacred liturgy. The room immediately returns to normal temperature.
What next, folks?
This along with Selia's visions convince me this place is truly haunted - let us not linger here lest the haunt regains its strength.
"I agree, but should we at least look around first?"
Selia checks to see they aren't leaving anything important.
You don't notice anything else significant about the room. Any idea which door you want to try next? there's several options. Here's the latest map again:
Sounds good to me.
This entire bedroom is caked with a thick, spongy layer of dark green, blue, and black mold.
Nich, I need a Will save from you please.
I hear spectral voices! Begone! By the power of Iomadae I compell you
Channel energy
You see Nich looking a bit shaken, but he appears unharmed. Any idea where you want to go next?
- North door
- western hallway has 2 doors:
----- directly west
----- north west
Also, don't forget that the portrait gallery had a set of double doors in its western wall, which you haven't opened.
That north door's right there, so I guess we'll look in there next?
NOTE - even though I"m showing your tokens in the hallway, this is simply for clarity, so you can see the room and its contents. We can assume you're all inside the new chamber.
An iron tub sits in the middle of this room, the floorboards around it sagging with the tub’s weight.
Can we see into the tub? If not, as the lightest character, Lleidr will carefully edge over until he can see inside.
Perception check please, Lleidr

I saw a terrible and confusing vision - Almost looking back in time, to shades of the past reliving final moments. A woman, whose appearance matches that of the portrait of Kasanda Foxglove, rushes into this room, now cluttered with cloth dolls and tiny dishes. Her face, neck and hands then erupts into disgusting boils and tumors, which then spread to her terrified daughter playing on the floor.
The history of this place is one of a deep and deadly curse which even now haunts this place.
Lleidr immediately determines that the floor here is unstable. Anyone heavier than himself getting further into the room is at risk of having the floor collapse into the ground level of the house.
The tub itself is empty. You see nothing else of note in this washroom.
After Nich has told us of his vision, Lleidr will start to wonder if there's anything we could do here that would be more effective than burning the place down.
On the plus side, the condition of the washroom floor makes Lleidr sorta kinda glad for once that his pockets are stuffed full of heavy gold coins.
I guess the northwest door next?
This once fine chamber has been destroyed. The bed is smashed, mattress torn apart, walls gouged as if by knives, chairs hacked apart, and paintings on the walls torn to pieces—with one exception. A portrait hanging on the northwest wall seems to be untouched, although it hangs backward, its unseen subject facing the wall.
"I wonder why that painting is turned around?"
Selia detects magic on the painting.
Best not check Selia - It may be for fell and evil purpose
"Told you. A barrel of lamp oil and a torch would improve this pace tremendously "
The painting doesn't detect as magical.
If you guys want him to, and if he can reach it, Lleidr will turn the painting around.
Lleidr reveals a portrait.
The plaque on the frame identifies the woman as Iesha Foxglove, wife of Aldern Foxglove.
"Seems someone didn't want her looking at them while they busted up the place? Guess it was Aldern?"
Interesting picture.
"This place is creeping me out! Is there one more room up here? if so, lets take a look then head downstairs. The sooner we're out of here the better."
There's a door adjacent to the door for this room; there's an unopened double door in the portrait gallery.
"I'm with Ned. Let's try to make quick work of this. I am feeling sad looking at that portrait, but I have no reason to... it must be something unatural!"
Going back out into the hallway, Lleidr will open up the door leading to the west...after instinctively checking for traps and noise.
NOTE - in the interest of time, I've made all the necessary initiative & perception checks. Nich didn't catch the sign of a haunt effect, and so cannot try to channel energy in the surprise round before the effect surfaces.
The western door at the hall's end reveals a stair climbing into the attic. As you re-enter the hallway, Ned and Lleidr hear a woman's accusation. "What do you get up to down in the damp below?"
You see Ned swoon with dizziness, and then his face contorts in rage. His arm readies a powerful swing towards Selia.
Nich goes first.
Ned is next, and must attack Selia this round with lethal force.
Selia then Lleidr follow.
Actions, Nich?
Nicholae Channels energy
Ned screams at Selia. "You! I thought I was done with you you evil b$$@~!"
Hopefully my chanelled energy stops the strike.
Nich, you should change your action. You didn't notice the beginning of the haunt and were unable to channel before the haunt happened. Channeling now will have no effect.
The haunt itself has already triggered and passed.
Attempts to grapple Ned before he can attack'
Grapple
Ned won't do an AoO, since he's focused solely on murdering Selia. Unfortunately, Ned breaks free from Nich's grasp, and attacks, dealing 13 dmg to Selia.
Lleidr and Selia, you're up next.
Lleidr will attempt to Aid Another, giving Nich a +2 on his next go at Ned.
+2 if flanking, target AC 10
You'd have to get on the other side of Ned to Aid Another, which you should be able to attempt by using Acrobatics to get through Ned's CMD.
I think Lleidr can Aid Another as long as he's in melee combat with the same target. But since he'd have to move for that, he might as well move enough to flank so the dice roll above will succeed.
