Each PC may take up to 5 rounds of actions in preparation, although some of you have already used up a number of those rounds.

I will give the party the rest of the weekend to prepare and move PC tokens appropriately. Then, I will move us along to the next encounter soemtime Monday.

Nightkit is preparing her crossbow while lying on her front on the floor behind the table, like a sniper.


Burden of Envy: Table 1 | Table 2 | Guardian's Covenant (Table 2)

"Bah!"" cries a towering Ulfen man, his head bald and his beard braided. He is accompanied by an Ulfen woman and a trio of men armed with crossbows. "I didn't come here to recover some old obelisk covered in hieroglyphics. I came here seeking treasure, a weapon, something capable of slaying a linnorm. So far, I have found little more than damaged ruins and old, decaying bodies."

"Do not be dismayed, Yjalk." The woman replies. "Your predictions of these ruins deep existing in the desert proved to be accurate. Surely, your suspicions of finding a legendary treasure must also correct. For you are destined to be a great king, Yjalk, and the halls of your court shall echo with my songs. For I shall sing of your travels to the Inner Sea as a merchant, the selling off of your cargo, your trek across the desert wastes to break into this Osirion tomb, and how you recovered the key that allowed you fell one of the great dragons of the north!”

”You are as inspiring as always, Signe.” Yjalk replies with a chuckle. “Tell the rest of the crew to come in here. This room looks like it could have a lot of hiding places for treasure.”

As he reaches the threshold of the chamber, Yjalk scans the room.
Perception: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (18) + 9 = 27

"We are not alone!" He declares as he reaches for his greatsword. The others gather around him.

Theron motions for Kit and the others to hold fire. He moves out from his spot and stands straight up. Ho there...we are not foes....just here on a job. Can we parley? he asks as he hold his sword and shield by his side, not in an active combat stance.

Darn. I was working on my post. Was going to silent image a ginormous phantom Ice Linnorm.

"A job to loot these ruins?" Yjalk bellows with a growing fury. "If you truly wish to parley, then let us parley. But do so quickly, for my journey to here has taken years and I grow impatient. Tell me who you are. And quickly!"

Nightkit crawls out from under the table, stands up, and puts her crossbow on top of the table.

Pathfinders she says. Seeking answers. And what is it you look for? You're a long way from home aren't you?

Aye...we're Pathfinders. You're from the north, aye?

Merida keeps her bow ready and an arrow nocked, but doesn't aim at the group of Ulfens... yet.

"Yeah, we're Pathfinders... combat hardened Pathfinders."

In the prep round, Ashtoret would cast Mirror Images (1d4 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3) on herself, if you don't mind. It's in minutes, so it made sense no matter who was approaching.

We came first. We take what we need, and then you act as you see fit. This is the law of honor. Who needs a king without honor? Who needs a legend about such a slayer of linnorms? Wizardess spectacularly comes out of her hiding place with these words.... But Ashtoret's voice sounds indifferent. To be honest, she dreams of burning them with a fireball, but why not talk first?

Diplomacy auto-aid!


Burden of Envy: Table 1 | Table 2 | Guardian's Covenant (Table 2)

As success even without adding in Corey's auto-aid

"I... I apologize for making rude accusations." Yjalk replies. He pauses to rub his eyes, trying to wipe away multiple images of multiple adventurers from his field of vision. Though unsuccessful, he continues."Aye. I have indeed come from the north, in a roundabout way. I hail from the Land of the Linnorm Kings, bringing with me dreams of earning greatness, acquiring wealth, and perhaps one day felling a linnorm. To that end, I set about seeking an edge, whether a physical technique, a cunning plan, or a magical weapon."

"Knowing that performing an occasional sea raid would never be enough to make my name I set forth on another path." The Ulfen men expounds. "Over the past year, I have collected and pieced together bard tales that, when cross-referenced, made some mention of what I believe must be a legendary treasure. Using that information, I have crafted, planned, and set about my present court. With a band of loyal glory-seekers, I have traveled to the Inner Sea as a merchant, sold off my cargo, and then trekked across the desert wastes to break into this Osirion tomb and recover whatever legendary weapon lies within it."

"My second-in-command, Signe, and my crew, we have traveled this far, yet have managed to avoid any serious encounters. We are eager for some action as well as treasure." He concedes. "And since you are Pathfinders, combat hardened Pathfinders, it may be well if my companions and I were to explore the rest of the ruins with you."

"What say you? Shall we explore together and split what spoils we may find?"

Nightkit. And sure, I got no problems - as long as you don't want anything we need to fulfil our mission. It's something about the Jeweled Sages we were looking for wasn't it? And, oh yes, liberating a water elemental.

Corey senses something fishy. Are they going to turn on his group? Corey tries to read Yjalk's and his teammates' body language and tone of voice to see if he means well.

Ashtoret is well aware that discernment is not her strong suit. Do you believe in his intentions? She openly asks her comrades, still assessing how well a fireball would fit into a group of enemies slipping on grease...


Burden of Envy: Table 1 | Table 2 | Guardian's Covenant (Table 2)

Corey can't spot any tells or clear signs that support his concerns about the northmen.

"We have a truce!" Yjalk loudly bellows.

"As for something stronger than water, I only have a couple of potions and some holy water." he notes. "Last thing I would want to do is dehydrate out in the desert."

"Liberating a water elemental? Sounds stronger. How do you plan to free it? Are you asking for a jug?" Yjalk inquires, somewhat confused. "No matter, it looks like everything else in these ruins is long dead or gone. We should be able to explore freely now. What could possibly go wrong?"

A moment later the room trembles, the brazier in the center of the table ignites with emerald fire, and the spectral form of a sage rises from the flames while a mass of corpses in the northwest alcove animate to defend the malignant cloud of shadows that boils in the air. The sage's skeletal maw eerily babbles as it’s claws manifest from the darkness ready to attack.

"The truce is off!" Yjalk loudly cries.

The panicked crew of northmen along with their leader turn and flee.

This lurching mash-up of rotting flesh, jagged bone, and coarse hair is a carrion golem. This humanoid monstrosity reeks of death and decay.
Like the one the party faced earlier. What would you like to know?

The undead sage mutters to itself, creating a hypnotic effect.
All PCs must succeed at a DC 15 Will save or be fascinated for 2d4 rounds. This is a sonic, mind-affecting compulsion effect.

It then seeks to fill the party with fear and doubt.
Each PC must succeed at a Will save (DC 15) or take a –1 penalty on attack rolls and a –1 penalty on saving throws against fear effects for three minutes.

Corey it's completely caught by surprise as everything happens all at once with the new group of adventures fleeing and a ghostly Jeweled Sage appearing.
He calls out to the fleeing Ulfens, "Hey! Wait!!! Where you going!?! We could use some help here!!!"

Getting struck by the incorporeal phantom, Corey felt unwise for a moment, but the feeling passes.

@GM: Just a heads up, Corey has mirror image up (3 images). There was a chance that the phantom hit one of the images instead. We'll make sure to roll next time.

I'm pretty sure there's just 1 ghost sage. Listed twice on the initiative tracker might be a mistake. Right, GM? Or are we actually fighting two ghost sages?

I'll be over to help as soon as I can, Corey...hang on! Theron says as he turns to the mass of zombies and barrels towards it, blade held high as he brings it down in a mighty chop as he gets in close.

Due to nauseated condition, can't move and chop. You may keep the rolls for next round, if you wish.

Immediate action to identify undead sage since it got close and personal with Corey.
Know (Religion): 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
Pfft. *Throws virtual dice out window*

Corey has never heard of, nor learned of, one of these types of undead. Maybe it has Corey confused because it has the form of a Scarab Sage.

Botting Ashtoret...

Ashtoret snaps out of her stupor, blinking away the lingering haze. Her eyes dart around the room, quickly taking in the chaos.

Then she spots Corey—locked in a desperate struggle with the ghostly Sage, barely holding his ground.

Without hesitation, she tears herself away from the shambling horde of undead and steps back a few feet (5' step).

"You there, undead Sage!" she calls, her voice sharp as steel. "Look into my eyes..."

The ghost turns, its hollow gaze meeting hers.

"You will obey me now." she sneers.

With a flourish of her arms, Ashtoret begins to weave an intricate, hypnotic pattern through the air—her magic coiling like a serpent as she attempts to bend the ancient spirit to her will.

Command undead, DC 17 Will save.

Command Undead:
As a standard action, you can use one of your uses of channel negative energy to enslave undead within 30 feet. Undead receive a Will save to negate the effect. The DC for this Will save is equal to 10 + 1/2 your cleric level + your Charisma modifier. Undead that fail their saves fall under your control, obeying your commands to the best of their ability, as if under the effects of control undead. Intelligent undead receive a new saving throw each day to resist your command. You can control any number of undead, so long as their total Hit Dice do not exceed your cleric level. If an undead creature is under the control of another creature, you must make an opposed Charisma check whenever your orders conflict.

Undead sage, Will w/channel resistance: 1d20 + 4 + 2 ⇒ (1) + 4 + 2 = 7

Well, that seemed inevitable.

With the undead Sage now under Ashtoret's control, Corey runs out of the alcove to a spot in the middle of the chamber. Seeing Nightkit and Merida still fascinated, he sings an uplifting song of famous past Pathfinders and their victorious battles against undead menaces.
Perform (sing): 1d20 + 11 ⇒ (9) + 11 = 20

Countersong (Su):
At 1st level, a bard learns to counter magic effects that depend on sound (but not spells that have verbal components). Each round of the countersong he makes a Perform (keyboard, percussion, wind, string, or sing) skill check. Any creature within 30 feet of the bard (including the bard himself) that is affected by a sonic or language-dependent magical attack may use the bard's Perform check result in place of its saving throw if, after the saving throw is rolled, the Perform check result proves to be higher. If a creature within range of the countersong is already under the effect of a noninstantaneous sonic or language-dependent magical attack, it gains another saving throw against the effect each round it hears the countersong, but it must use the bard's Perform skill check result for the save. Countersong does not work on effects that don't allow saves. Countersong relies on audible components.

Hearing Corey's singing, which sounds like Angels of Heaven, Nightkit and Merida snap out of their stupor.
Countersong check beat the DC of Will save.

Seebonickk just barely eeks by the mass of dead flesh. His blade, however, fails to find purchase.

The mass strikes back.

Melee (slam): 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10
Damage (B) plus disease: 1d8 + 3 ⇒ (1) + 3 = 4
