"Unfortunately, I don't think any of us are trained enough in the use of poisons to identify it. However, we have more evidence that the captain has been trying to force us to fail." Dembar pulls out the sketch that the group was given when sent to find Inysha. "The captain sent us to apprehend a con artist at a gambling house. However, this image that was provided is that of General Faiza bint Hanif, and if we had apprehended the general in place of Inysha, we would obviously have looked misinformed at best, and could have been court-martialed at worst!" Diplomacy: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (18) + 4 = 22 "The captain was obviously trying to make us look bad, or even get us in major trouble. She has ulterior motives for disliking us, as my colleagues can attest to as well!" Someone else should follow up with the fact that we found ties to the Aspis Consortium in her office.

Dembar squeaks his approval of keeping the party together. If we want to convince Dell to testify, Dembar will change back into a non-bat and attempt to coerce her. Only +4 on Diplomacy, though.

Having tossed out tons of psychic beat-down on the enemies, Dembar grabs onto one of Sathos' belt straps with his tiny bat talons, flips upside down, and promptly falls asleep, completely missing the conversation with Zuhair. Hi guys! I'm back from PAX Unplugged! It was awesome!

FYI, I'll be out of town starting later today through Sunday evening for PAX Unplugged, and I don't foresee having a lot of chances to update my games. Please feel free to bot Dembar with either more psychic strikes or by using his color spray to try to disable any groups of mooks.

Dembar fires off yet another psychic assault on the remaining elemental.

Seeing its effects the first time, Dembar will hit the other creature with a psychic strike as well. damage: 1d6 ⇒ 4 DC 14 to negate damage, if failed also shaken 1 round.

Dembar, still in Tiny bat form, flaps into the air and sends a wave of psychic energy at the (blue) elemental.

Dembar's not one for planning and scheming, but he's good at staying unseen, so he's happy to be assigned to an investigative duo. If his group discovers Inysha, he'll probably try to very quickly disable her with his psychic magic. Boy, you guys got a lot of posts in over this weekend! I am generally less available on weekends than I am during the week, FYI.

Dembar lands on Gardol's arm before he starts disabling, and uses his little bat talons to point in directions that he thinks the lockpick should turn while he's doing his work. At the GM's discretion this could totally not work at all, but Dembar does have the Disable Device skill, so... Disable Device, aid Gardol: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (9) + 3 = 12 Once the lock is undone, he'll look the door over for any additional traps, then wait for someone to open it a crack, and enter.

"I think we should probably take the opportunity to find out what we can now... who knows who may have heard us all speaking, and could warn the captain what we're planning?" I vote for now. Happy to be the stealthy little bat.
Male skinwalker sorcerer 2 [Bat shape] | hp 12/12 | AC 16 [19], T 12 [18], FF 14 [15] | Fort +1, Ref +2 [+4], Will +2 | Psychic strike 3/6 | Perception +5 [+9]
Dembar squeaks again, then decides he really would like to participate in the conversation, so he hops down onto the bed and changes to his humanoid form, however reluctantly. "I am adept at sneaking into places, especially as a bat. If her security is not insane, we should be able to handle finding the proof. Would you be willing to back us up publically if we have that proof?" Diplomacy aid: 1d20 + 4 ⇒ (4) + 4 = 8 Dembar has a +12 to Stealth as a bat, so he's almost guaranteed to be able to sneak in unnoticed.

"Oh dear, poisons?! This is not what I signed up for, I can tell you that! This captain must be brought to justice!" Dembar exclaims, or at least that's what he thinks he's saying, but he has forgotten that he's still in bat form, and so all you hear is "SQUEAK SQUEAK SQUEEEEAK!"
Male skinwalker sorcerer 2 [Bat shape] | hp 12/12 | AC 16 [19], T 12 [18], FF 14 [15] | Fort +1, Ref +2 [+4], Will +2 | Psychic strike 3/6 | Perception +5 [+9]
Dembar becomes a bat once more during the discussions with the oread, but listens intently to his responses. Thanks guys, definitely didn't realize the two days of training were a week apart. No damage for Dembar!

"No... spells?" Dembar audibly gulps. He grabs a blunted version of a mace and looks extremely uncomfortable at the prospect of actual hand-to-hand combat. When the fight starts, he waits for the more melee-loving of the group to run up first. Delay until the others in the party run forward.

Dembar spends the rest of the week trying to ingratiate himself to the captain, to no avail. His innate charisma seems to have no bearing on her dislike for him.

damage: 1d6 ⇒ 6 "YOU SEE? THIS IS WHY I PREFER TO FLY!" Dembar yells from the bottom of the pit, before changing to bat form, flying to the top, and changing back.

Question 1:
Bluff: 1d20 + 7 ⇒ (9) + 7 = 16 Dembar listens to what Veres says about the efreeti, and tries to extrapolate an additional piece of information. "They... are afraid of the cold as well, so cold spells can be used to intimidate them into submission." Question 2:
Kn.planes, untrained: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (6) + 2 = 8 "Umm... fire... snails? probably failed both...: "It's... the Ungrounded! I know that much, at least!"

After being admonished by both his allies and the captain for seemingly trying to shirk his duties, Dembar changes back to his less-preferred form and attempts the tasks at hand. 6:00 am:
Since Dembar had not slept in his bed, it is still impeccably made. He salutes the captain, apologizes for seeming to be insubordinate, and sets off. 6:30 am:
Dembar works hard to move the equipment, though his strength is less than desirable for such a task. 9:30 am:
Fort: 1d20 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 1 = 13 Dembar works hard and is pretty tired out by the time the captain stomps through, ruining their hard work. He rolls his eyes, but says nothing and cleans up the new mud. 12:00 pm:
Dembar eats his lunch quickly, famished after the hard work. 12:30 pm:
Dembar has no previous training in marching, Perform(oratory) untrained: 1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21, but he is able to seemingly bluff his way through without his lack of training showing.
3:00 pm:
Spoiler:
Balancing act Acrobatics: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16 Acrobatics: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (16) + 2 = 18 He makes it across easily. Spoiler:
Bear crawl Escape Artist: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (14) + 2 = 16 Escape Artist: 1d20 + 2 ⇒ (10) + 2 = 12 He also does decently well at crawling though the obstacle. Spoiler:
Climbing, swimming Climb: 1d20 ⇒ 10 Climb: 1d20 ⇒ 13 Swim: 1d20 ⇒ 13
6:00 pm:
Dembar is ravenous after the grueling training during the day. 9:00 pm: Dembar makes sure his area is tidy, then turns back into a bat and hangs upside down, finding the act of sleeping more comfortable as a bat.

6:00 a.m.:
Dembar acts like a pet bat, and shrieks at the sound of the drum on his sensitive ears, but otherwise ignores the captain's summons. 6:30 a.m.:

Dembar acts like a pet bat, entirely ignoring the obstacle course and flying around trying to eat bugs. 6:00 p.m.:
Dembar acts like a pet bat, once again sitting on Sathos's shoulder and eating scraps. 9:30 p.m.:
Dembar acts like a pet bat, hanging upside-down from the rafters and acting like he's asleep. Demerits:
Mean nothing to a bat. Message to the GM: If this line of actions would have a negative impact on the group as a whole, Dembar would gladly change to his "normal" form and become a recruit, but I think this is more likely what he would do if giventhe option.

Sitting on Sathos' shoulder, Dembar squeaks 8 times, dutifully adding the numbers together, then flies that many circuits around the room, like a good little pet bat.
Male skinwalker sorcerer 2 [Bat shape] | hp 12/12 | AC 16 [19], T 12 [18], FF 14 [15] | Fort +1, Ref +2 [+4], Will +2 | Psychic strike 3/6 | Perception +5 [+9]
Dembar follows the others, observing but saying little. When they all arrive at the town, he changes into his bat form and alights on Gardol's pack, listening and observing.

"Sadly I cannot, though I hope to master thought-speak in time." Dembar looks a bit crestfallen at his lack of ability to speak when in his preferred form. "But I can still cast my spells!"
Male skinwalker sorcerer 2 [Bat shape] | hp 12/12 | AC 16 [19], T 12 [18], FF 14 [15] | Fort +1, Ref +2 [+4], Will +2 | Psychic strike 3/6 | Perception +5 [+9]
"So, we're taking the side of the Sultana over the city of Brass, eh? Interesting. I don't know why the Pathfinders should be taking sides, but if you say so... " Dembar looks around at his fellow pathfinders. His bat-like nose and ears twitch in unison. "Well met, friends. You will not likely see me in this form for long... I prefer to spend my time as a bat. I will not be able to communicate with you, though I will understand your speech in that form." Dembar spends combat in bat form, as he can still cast his spells in that form thanks to his Psychic bloodline. "Do you suggest any protective incantations for the plane of earth? I know that on the plane of fire, fire resistance is an obvious choice. Should we procure some acid resistance spells?"

Dembar squeaks in the negative. I'm fine with not roasting more goblins just for the sake of roasting them, as long as it doesn't cause us to lose out on a ton of treasure.

Dembar will give chase with the others, and with his 40 feet fly speed should be able to catch up to her. He'll use psychic strike on her as soon as he's within 30 feet of her, and if she is still running when he gets within 15 feet, he'll cast burning hands down on her.
