Thevenin discovers nothing more than the frail countenance of the gnome ship captain. Fail
Razzm discovers that Troyus is frustrated of their situation because of boredom. Intimidating him is not the best course of action, as it will make him more irritable. Giving him a task to do might help ease the boredom he is feeling. Setting a task in front of him lowers all following checks’ DCs by 2. Any skill check will be allowed as long as justified by roleplay and what is asked of the NPC.
Shalosar tries to heal Razzm after taking damage from his performance in front of the captain but he fails to heal him.
Malark gives his best to entertain the captain. He can see that the captain smiles weakly, somewhat enjoying the scene of performance. Success, 1 Influence Point to Fidero. The captain manages to whisper “Parkit…Parkit is the one…”, as if remembering something while watching the performance before losing strength.
The cook Marda is happy that somebody is asking about her cooking. "Well, being always in the sea limits my options, but I cook different fish that can be broiled, and if we are lucky, we can feast with lobsters and crabs!" she tells the kobold happily. Success, 1 Influence Point for Marda"How about you and your friends stay here for a meal," she says. I've been running out of mouths to feed lately." she adds with dark humor on it.
While Ebiten is having a nice conversation with Pog who tells him that everyone is bored, every week returns to where they have been and what they are doing, well except for those who have been gone because of the demon dogs. On the side, Ebiten finds that Troyus needs some direction to give him motivation and bring him out of boredom. Setting a task in front of him lowers all following checks’ DCs by 2. Any skill check will be allowed as long as justified by roleplay and what is asked of the NPC.

CHARACTER IN ➤ BOLD TYPEFACE CAN DISCOVER OR INFLUENCE! ➤ Ebiten ➤ Shalosar ➤ Razzm ➤ Thevenin ➤ Zornesk ➤ Malark
Discover (Concentrate, Secret):
You watch or study an NPC to learn more about that NPC’s preferences. Choose an NPC and attempt a Perception check or an appropriate skill check determined by the GM. The DC is typically found in the NPC’s influence stat block. Critical Success Choose two of the options detailed in Success below; you can choose the same option twice to learn two pieces of information from the same category. Success Choose one of the following: You learn which skill that can Influence the NPC has the lowest DC (skipping any skills that you already know), one of the NPC’s personal biases, one of the NPC’s resistances, or one of the NPC’s weaknesses. Failure You learn no information. Critical Failure Choose a piece of information to learn about, as success, but the information is incorrect. For instance, you might think the NPC is susceptible to flattery when actually the NPC is resistant to flattery.
Influence (Concentrate, Linguistic):
You attempt to make a favorable impression on an NPC to convince the NPC to support your cause. Choose an NPC, and attempt a skill check to impress that NPC. The DC, and whether success is possible, depend on the NPC’s preferences (typically found in the NPC’s influence stat block). Critical Success You gain 2 Influence Points with the chosen NPC. Success You gain 1 Influence Point with the chosen NPC. Failure You gain no Influence Points with the chosen NPC. Critical Failure You lose 1 Influence Point with the chosen NPC.
This is the last Round for everyone to Influence/Discover the NPCs. I suggest you Influence them all if possible to gain more information.

Sensing that Troyus is nearly overwhelmed by the boredom of life at sea, Razzm challenges him to a Limbo competition. As the others egg them both on, Razzm does his best to bend over backwards as the bar gets ever lower. "C'mon Troyus, you can do it!"
Malark joins Marda, the cook offering him some meals of recently caught milkfish. "Be careful eating that, but I deboned it as much as a I can." she says and shares that she has this secret ingredient to complement the salty taste and remove the fishy smell. 1 Influence Point to Marda"If you are curious to know, though I am not trying to speak ill of anyone on board, but I think Arjol Parkit has something to do with missing passengers," she says as if spilling some tea.
Thevenin calls Troyus to do something, and obediently helps the leshy to lift and see over the railing. 2 Influence Points to Troyus Troyus then off-handedly tells Thevenin something, "Landlubbers aboard a ship never bodes well.

2. Troyus explains the situation aboard the Tide. He confirms that the Tide was sailing past Xin-Edasseril when the strangeness started, but he knows nothing of that city’s reappearance. Rather, he suspects Arjol Parkit is somehow involved with the time-loop.
3. Marda invites the PCs to stay for a meal and mentions (with black humor) that she’s been running out of mouths to feed lately.
4. Marda explains the situation aboard the Tide. Though reluctant to speak ill of anyone, she suspects the ship’s passenger, Arjol Parkit, has something to do with the missing crew members.

"Agreed, let's go have a little chat with him..." Razzm replies grimly. The idea of murdered crew members appears not to agree with him.
GM, do I still have any damage sustained from the earlier jump from the crow's nest? If so, I'll ask someone to try patching me up before we visit Arjol.
I'm assuming that I can't influence the cook again?"
Unfortunately, yes. The time is over to Influence them over at this point. You have influenced them enough to give you some leads, anyway.

I do not have stats about the height of crow's nest of the ship you are at, let says it is 30 ft, so you took 15 B damage with your Cat Fall feat. If anyone wants to heal, we can just retcon it. The last time you were healed was a failure though.

I assume you will meet at some point to discuss what your group has found so far, and anyone can open the spoiler from my last post.

The group can easily ask anyone where they can find Arjol Parkit. One of the crew points you to his cabin. Upon arrival, you find that the cabin is locked. You can Pick the Lock with three successful DC 18 Thievery checks or Force it Open with a DC 22 Athletics check.

If someone is able to heal Razzm would welcome being patched up. He's down 15.
Earlier...
Before the group descends to Arjol's cabin, Razzm yawns several times and decides to curl up for a quick cat nap. After napping for 10 minutes, gain 4 temp hp for 1 hour.
Now...
Razzm glares at the door where the presumed miscreant Arjol has been up to no good and then - if no one steps forward to pick the lock - puts his shoulder into it.
Athletics DC 22:1d20 + 12 ⇒ (8) + 12 = 20
But unfortunately he's not quite strong enough to budge it. If no one else tries he'll attempt it again until he gets it open.

The group struggles to break down the locked door. Finally, it gives in to their efforts.
Once opened, they see that on this once a typical passenger’s cabin, this space has clearly been transformed by someone whose interests intersect with otherworldly magic. A circle of odd runes is carved into the floor, while a voluminous journal sits open atop a writing desk amidst vials of ink, the stubs of candles, and other occult trappings. Most unusual are the spaces where the cabin’s walls meet or join with the ceiling and floor. All these corners have been filled with pitch, softening the angles and giving the cabin a strange, almost organic look.
"Intruders! I know you are not from here because the crew will not dare to open my cabin forcibly!" Arjol howls. "Even if you kill me, your efforts will be moot because I transcend beyond time! And I will not allow you to ruin my plans!" he adds with malicious intent in his words.

You can use High Jump and Long Jump as a single action instead of 2 actions. If you do, you don’t perform the initial Stride (nor do you fail if you don’t Stride 10 feet).

I've placed him where I think he would end up but GM of course adjudicate as you see fit. I will note that this is the first time I've had a chance for him to actually use that feat and as a real life cat dad, it makes me proud :-)

Razzm laughs but restrains himself a bit. He then gracefully leaps above the gooey creature to get in touch with the occultist. Arjol's eyes widen in surprise that the feline Pathfinder is jumping straight to him, poking the same but missing to bash with his shield. 12 P damage

EFFECTS & CONDITIONS REFERENCE
◆ Recall Knowledge (concentrate, secret) :
You attempt a skill check to try to remember a bit of knowledge regarding a topic related to that skill. Suggest which skill you'd like to use and ask the GM one question. The GM determines the DC. You might need to collaborate with the GM to narrow down the question or skills, and you can decide not to Recall Knowledge before committing to the action if you don't like your options. Critical Success You recall the knowledge accurately. The GM answers your question truthfully and either tells you additional information or context, or answers one followup question. Success You recall the knowledge accurately. The GM answers your question truthfully. Critical Failure You recall incorrect information. The GM answers your question falsely (or decides to give you no information, as on a failure).
Hideous Laughter :
Critical Success The target is unaffected. Success The target is plagued with uncontrollable laugher. It can't use reactions. Failure The target is slowed 1 and can't use reactions. Critical Failure The target falls prone and can't use actions or reactions for 1 round. It then suffers the failure effects.
Paranoia :
Critical Success The target is unaffected. Success The target believes everyone it sees is a potential threat. It becomes unfriendly to all creatures to which it wasn't already hostile, even those that were previously allies. It treats no one as an ally. The spell ends after 1 round. Failure As success, but the effect lasts 1 minute. Critical Failure As failure, except the target believes that everyone it sees is a mortal enemy. It uses its reactions and free actions against everyone, regardless of whether they were previously its allies, as determined by the GM. It otherwise acts as rationally as it normally does and likely prefers to attack creatures that are actively attacking or hindering it over those leaving it alone.
Thevenin easily dodges the attack on them. They then zaps White and Blue.
White: DC 20 basic Reflex save:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (19) + 3 = 22 vs EA (Success, 3 E damage)
Blue: DC 20 basic Reflex save:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (16) + 3 = 19 vs EA (Fail, 6 E damage)
Blue is slower than White but both of them are zapped.
Ebiten, only Thevenin and Malark are affected by the Shard Strike from Shalosar.
Malark is not as evasive as Thevenin. He approaches White with stabbing. (Success, 4 P damage; Crit Success, Immune to Crit Hit, 8 P damage)
