”Flint might have been correct earlier. There’s so much evil in this place, I’m not sure that we can negotiate our way through it. We might have to destroy every demon or devil that might have caused these people to suffer like this…”
We’ll say about an hour has gone by since Heroic Invocation was cast so it’s still active…
Marta detects mostly good coming from those prisoners above in the gibbets; but she also detects evil from within the mists lying to the west of the chamber. Flint detects a huge creature in the same direction, about the time a great golden head emerges from the mists…
…and a dragon’s head to boot! More of the gold dragon’s body follows as it peers at you, saying, ”My, my…visitors. Are you here to see my mistress? I’m sure she is most interested in seeing you…”
Marta does a double take in seeing a gold dragon that detects as evil…

"Ah dragons... always horny, and thus, corruptible. But really, for a demon? come now, don't tell me there's a shortage of princesses on Golarion! is the point of you golds shapeshifting into humans or elves not to satisfy your thirst for statecraft, politicking and careful - or not so careful - bloodline pruning?

"Yes, please tell me how it is you came to be aligned with your mistress. Oh, and tell me about your mistress. Theodric, be nice, at least for now."
Marta has an intense look, like she could just eat that dragon up, figuratively.
"Ragathiel," she says, pointing at the emblem she has on her cloak after swirling it into view, "is big on conversion, you know, having once been on the same side as you now find yourself."
The dragon gives an awkward sneer, flitting its wing’s unnaturally, hissing, ”Ragathiel is a fool…and he will be dealt with,” he says, in a voice that doesn’t quite match up to the majesty of a gold dragon…

While this creature is indeed a gold dragon…you are certain it is possessed…

Marta laughs derisively.
"Others have said so as well. So, is this mind control then?
Did you capture the dragon, as you did the others in the previous rooms, and subject it to repeated attempts at control until it succumbed? Seems rather unfair to me. Well, since you have not breathed all over us yet, there must be something you wanted to tell us? Out with it."
Since whoever runs the place seems to have a thing for capturing powerful creatures and having her way with them, Marta is on the lookout for a trap.
Unfortunately it would be trivial to trick a group into a room with a permanent anti-magic on it and seal them in it. Thankfully, Pathfinder writers are never so rude.

Flint is less knowledgeable about this dragon then he would like to be but typically dragons are magical beasts. He banes his bow with this knowledge and clicks his boots together for a boost of speed.
@GM Otha - I am going to assume that the dragon is more than 30 feet away from Flint as it is flying. If not then please add +1 to hit and +1 to damage to all of the attack rolls.

Marta is pretty sure a dragon's blast is coming, but is confident she will be able to weather the blast without harm considering how many bodies there are to hide behind (i.e., she does not move). So instead she calls for aid from Ragathiel and once the judgment has begun, casts a Lend Judgment, Greater to allow Theodric to benefit from it.
The judgements include a +3 sacred bonus to saving throws and armor class.

@GM Otha - Flint is actually at -10 hit points on the board. The remaining 9 hit points of damage is absorbed by his temporary hit points.
I am going to give the casters a chance to post and hopefully dispel the possession effect before trying to put more arrows into the gold dragon. As my character's actions are at the top of round 2 anyways there is no need to be trigger happy. :)

Caster level check, myrhh:1d20 + 17 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 17 + 1 = 30Does the Planar penalty affect this? If so, the result would be two less. Also, I think other buffs, like Heroism, are irrelevant for this?
@Agata - Caster Level checks are not impacted by the planar penalty as they are not ability score based and you are right that buffs like Heroism would not apply here. So your total of 30 looks good to me. :)

Zaarah is quite intrigued by a possessed dragon.
“We think that the creature has to cool down!!“ Zaarah says.
She concentrates and suddenly a storm of ice and freezing wind envelops the dragon!
dragon takes 3d8 points of cold damage Fortitude DC 25 half :3d8 ⇒ (6, 8, 2) = 16 .
Failed fort dc 25 :
If the target fails its save, it is paralyzed and unconscious but does not need to eat or breathe while the ice lasts. The ice has 20 hit points; destroying the ice frees the creature, which is staggered for 1d4 rounds after being released. Whether or not the target’s saving throw is successful, it cannot be the target of this hex again for 1 day.
FAQ
What is the range of ice tomb hex? Can it affect objects? Does the target need to drink? Can it affect a cold-immune creature? If the target succeeds at its save, is it still imprisoned? How long does it last?
Like most major hexes, the range is 60 feet.
In the second printing of PRG:UM, the text says, “A storm of ice and freezing wind envelops the creature…,” so it only affects creatures, not objects.
The target doesn’t need to eat, breathe, or drink.
The general assumption for effects is if the creature negates the damage from the effect, the creature isn’t subject to additional effects from that attack (such as DR negating the damage from a poisoned weapon, which means the creature isn’t subject to the poison). Therefore, a cold-immune creature takes no damage from the hex and can’t be imprisoned by it.
A target that succeeds at its save takes half damage and is not imprisoned.
Under temperate conditions, the ice lasts 1 minute per witch level. In tropical environments it might only last half as long. In cold environments where ice and snow persist without melting, it might last indefinitely.

Looks like the GM ninjaed you by a few minutes. The dragon is no longer possessed. Agata successfully shooed it out of her. Her voice changed and she slumped. Freezing her would be counter productive so would you like to change that action?
Aye Zaarah, Marta is correct, you can change your action if you wish…the spell used here for possession led me to believe that you wouldn’t necessarily see anything leave the body…but I could be wrong…let me double-check this…
Flint hears the dragon moan. He keeps his guard up anyways as a precaution but does not attack. He preserves his magical resources (Haste and Bane are no longer active).
Total Defense action for Flint +6 Dodge AC.

Zaarah immediately stops her freezing hex when she sees the possessed dragon change its behavior.
”Hey you ok?! We’re here to help. You’re in bad shape because of the possession by a demon. So take it slow! Oh I’m Zaarah by the way and this is Measu and this group consists of Pathfinders!“ she says pointing at her black blade and then her companions.
”We are really cool! We promise! So what’s up with you? How did you get here? I mean you don’t have to answer, but we would really appreciate it! I mean it is the name would be great! Oh, and of course you can tell us about your children, or whatever else is important to you! We are great listeners as that’s what always people say!“ she says with a sly smile.
”Hi there, I’m Alie! I’ve never met a gold dragon before! It’s great to meet you. Sorry my spell didn’t work on you earlier. Last thing we want to do would be to cause trouble with you. How’d you end up here anyways? We’ve seen a ton of terrible things in this place…”

"Besides, these folks seem to have made it a habit to capture folks and are probably pretty good at it. How did it happen if I might ask?"
Marta invisibly reacts by standing down, though she always seems like she is at attention so there is really no difference. The Judgement lapses now that the combat is over and Theodric can definitely feel that.

Agata eyes the dragon with interest. "Aintchoo a nice one, then? What's a nice dragon like yerself doin' in a place like this? An I don't 'spose ye seen our friends - they look a bit like us - adventurers, but maybe not quite as glamorous as we is."
The dragon grimaces at your assurances, still ashamed of being caught. ”It is a long story…the demon pursued me for a long time…he finally caught me on a bad day. And not sure if I’ve seen your friends…I’ve seen many since being brought here, but not entirely thru my own eyes…”

"My what a large Shadow Demon. It is a good thing that I have just the right arrows to deal with you."
Flint fingers his ghost salt blanched arrows that are specially treated to fully deal with incorporeal creatures. He then readjusts his positioning to a more defensive posture but also reduces the pull on his bow to focus on accuracy rather than damage to compensate. He then banes his bow against the demon and clicks his boots together increasing his natural speed.

Marta also tried to figure out what is so special about this particular shadow.
Not sure. this thing is both a shadow and a demon so either religion or planes would apply. do you roll both? If not take the first one as it is a higher bonus. Also, the heightened awareness was probably burned at the beginning of combat.
All of Flint’s arrows strike home, the ghost salt ensuring they do full damage, the demon’s shriek confirming it…
Marta’s spear also doesn’t miss the colossal demon, but while it injures the demon to the point of nearly mortal, it only does partial damage to the incorporeal demon…
Nearly dead, the demon cries out in anguish, ”I’ll take you with me, Maurinaxian!”

Strongly Chaos-Aligned and Evil-Aligned: Nonevil or nonchaotic creatures take a –2 circumstance penalty on all Intelligence-, Wisdom-, and Charisma-based checks in the Moonscar. This penalty stacks with itself for creatures that fall into both categories (-4).
