"Oh little dark one, I suggested keeping her restrained for her safety, not ours. My only concern was that her addled mind may have lead her to committing some act of self destructive foolish. But by all means, release her! I really don't care what happens to her at this point. I'm going back to the inn to take a bath."
Seldiliel steps aside so that Greyviel can release Olivina and heads back up the steps.
After a long bath and a warm meal, Seldiliel will spend what remaining time she has in Karcau trying to figure out if there is a way to end the haunting of Mad Maria. The idea of her wandering the halls of the opera in an endless loop of madness strikes Seldiliel as particularly tragic.

Seldiliel will step in front of Greyveil and hold out her hand to step Greyviel from freeing Olivina.
"I have peered into the minds of these people and I believe that Oliviana is under the effects of some sort of enchantment. She sees this fiend we slayed as a savior. My suggestion is to reinforce her bindings and put a gag in her mouth...for her own safety of course."
Seldiliel turns to Basia and asks, "Do you know of anyone who can break a powerful enchantment? Otherwise, I think we need to keep her restrained until the effect ends on its own. Considering her status in society, it would be better to find her magical help."

Seldiliel points at the the kyton who is still standing and cries out in Infernal, "LAY DOWN UPON THE GROUND AND ACCEPT YOUR PUNISHMENT!"

I was readying for Sahess to enter the room. I think that action ends up being wasted because the trigger never went off.

Gripping the psychic crystal above her head in order to provide light in the darkness, Seldiliel clamors past the crates stacked up against the wall. Her eyes light up with a malevolent gleam and her skin takes on a sickly pink sheen as she allows her Dark Half to come out.
DarkHalf:
By allowing the dark forces to overcome you, You can enter a state of instinctual cruelty as a swift action.
While you’re manifesting your dark half, you increase the DCs of your psychic spells by 1, gain a +2 morale bonus on Will saves, and become immune to fear effects. Whenever you cast a spell that deals damage while manifesting your dark half, you can cause one creature that took damage from the spell to also take 1 point of bleed damage. The amount of bleed damage increases to 2 points at 5th level and to 1d6 points at 13th level. While manifesting your dark half, You can’t use any Charisma-, Dexterity-, or Intelligence-based skills (except Acrobatics, Fly, Intimidate, and Ride) or any ability that requires patience or concentration other than casting spells using psychic magic, using phrenic amplifications, or attempting to return to normal. You can attempt to return to your normal self as a free action, but must succeed at a concentration check with a DC equal to 10 + your caster level. If you fail, you continue to manifest your dark half and can’t attempt to change back for 1 round.

"YOU CREAMPUFF KYTONS THINK YOU KNOW PAIN! I'LL SHOW YOU PAIN! I'M GOING TO..." Seldiliel begins to rant things at the Kytons in Infernal that are better left unrecorded.
Seldiliel casts Mind Thrust IV at the blue kyton, amplifying it with Relentless Casting.
Mind Thrust IV, Will DC 21 for 1/2:8d8 ⇒ (3, 3, 5, 4, 7, 7, 3, 1) = 33 The Kyton will start taking 2 bleed damage per round. It is also fatigued for 1 round if it fails the Will save.

Crushed it on that Knowledge:Planes. Seldiliel would like to know about resistances, spell-like abilities, and special attacks, in that order.

Seldiliel runs down the stairs and into the room, squeezing past the enlarged nagaji. As she moves past her, she snarls, "Stop gawking and get in there, Sahess!"
Unsure of what she is seeing in front of her, but knowing that there is danger of some kind in this room, Seldiliel pauses momentarily, mentally preparing herself to cast haste on the group as soon as Sahess begins to squeeze through the door way.
Thoriel and Sahess are currently 35 feet apart, so once Seldliliel is readying her action. She should then be able to hit everyone with the haste, including both of our familiars.
Haste:
When making a full attack action, a hasted creature may make one extra attack with one natural or manufactured weapon. The attack is made using the creature’s full base attack bonus, plus any modifiers appropriate to the situation. (This effect is not cumulative with similar effects, such as that provided by a speed weapon, nor does it actually grant an extra action, so you can’t use it to cast a second spell or otherwise take an extra action in the round.)
A hasted creature gains a +1 bonus on attack rolls and a +1 dodge bonus to AC and Reflex saves. Any condition that makes you lose your Dexterity bonus to Armor Class (if any) also makes you lose dodge bonuses.
All of the hasted creature’s modes of movement (including land movement, burrow, climb, fly, and swim) increase by 30 feet, to a maximum of twice the subject’s normal speed using that form of movement. This increase counts as an enhancement bonus, and it affects the creature’s jumping distance as normal for increased speed. Multiple haste effects don’t stack. Haste dispels and counters slow.

Seldiliel has light and would probably be casting it regularly on Sahess, if she allows that. Otherwise, she could cast in on the rod in her hand.

Seldiliel sends her familiar out to scout the top floor.
"There, that will save us some time."
Seldiliel will check the staircase for traps or anything out of place before following Sahess downstairs.

Seldiliel sighs as she sees the open stairwell. "I guess we're supposed to go down there, huh? Down the door they left open for us? After following all those notes that are laying about? I still think those perverts at the mortuary are behind this. I should have filled their room with black tentacles before we left." Seldiliel grumbles the last part under her breath.
"Alright, knowing that we're walking into a trap has never stopped me before! Let's go!"

"Lead the way, Sahess, you glorious engine of destruction."
Seldiliel follows behind the enlarged nagaji, quivering with anticipation of the battle ahead.

I'm actually curious, is there anyway for our characters to know anything about what may have happened at this lodge in an earlier scenario? I always like it when the story in a scenario references an earlier adventure and this seems to be doing that a little bit.
L 1 - 2/8; L 2 5/8; L 3 4/6; L 3/4 CN Elf Female | Psychic 8 | Init +10 Per+15, LLV HP 57+12/57 AC 23(24), Touch AC 15(16), FF AC 19 | SVs Fort +7/Refl +9(10)/Will +9 | CMB +3 CMD 18
"It is strange that they had us stay in an inn when the Society owns a perfectly suitable manor in the city. But then I feel like I've heard some bad rumors about this lodge. Stories of young Pathfinders suffering gruesome fates in the catacombs that lie beneath it. I don't really remember more than that; but perhaps we should prepare ourselves before going in."

Seldiiliel casually looks at the poison vial, confirming what Greveil stated about the poison. Selidiliel also unsheathes the short sword and holds it up to the light.
Kn:Dungeoneering:1d20 + 11 ⇒ (15) + 11 = 26
It just seems too convenient that they have evidence of it being a darkfolk who did it. But we should probably report what we've found so far to the Lodge.
"The wealth of your master doesn't intimidate me, so you can wipe that smug look off your face. If we killed you right now, he would give you a nice funeral service and then he would just replace you with another lackey. He's not going to take on the Pathfinder Society over you."
Seldiliel laughs manically as she brushes her hair back with her hands. "If you have more to tell us, I recommend that you just tell us now. If we have to come back here because you "forgot" to tell us something, I will personally force feed that mask to you."

Seldiliel steps backwards, so so as to allow some of her more robust a chance to move forward.
"Well, since we did go to the trouble of paying you a visit, perhaps we can come in for a drink and compare notes?"

"Well, we're were sent here to make merry of course! What other reason would there be for a group of enticing young men and women to be down here? Let us in and I'm sure you could find some good use to put us to."
Seldiliel smiles at the man who's thoughts she picked up with a predatory glint in her eyes.
The fiend in her mind whispers, I want you to save that one for last. Selidiliel licks her lips.

"What depravity, indeed." It is very clear from her voice that Seldiliel does not disapprove. "I imagine that the Zarta will expect a...thorough report of what happened here."
Where is everyone?
Seldiliel will maintain the concentration on her detect thoughts spell, slowly making her way towards the door in the corner to see if she can sense anyone behind it.

"Allow me to take a look inside."
Seldiliel will use another detect thoughts to see if she can sense anyone on the other side of that door.

"I should check that room out...my elven senses are keen."

While searching the room, Seldiliel quietly slips a handful of drugs into her haversack.
"Oh well, I don't think there's much of interest in there."

Seldiliel steps back out of the room. She drops the slightly bloody wand in her hand and pulls out her wand of magic missile.

Seldiliel sees if she can regain her senses.
Fort Save:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (5) + 7 = 12
I'm not sure if she can use the plague rat belt's ability to reroll a Fort save as an immediate action while she is under the effect of confusion. If she can't do that, then she'll remain confused for another round.

Seldiliel attempts to cover her mouth as the room fills up with gases. Luckily, her plague rat is there to help protect her from such hazards.
Fort Save:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (1) + 7 = 8
Fort Save:reroll:1d20 + 7 ⇒ (12) + 7 = 19
Sadly, even the plague rat belt was not enough to save her, and she begins to blink in confusion as her grasp on reality begins to further shrink away.

"Finally, I understand! The thing is literally in my mind. I can feel it crawling around behind my eyes! If I pull it out I can finally be free!"
Seldiliel begins to jab at her eyes with the wand in her hand and blood begins to flow down her hands.

Seldiliel whispers to the group, "A locked door. Perhaps we should trying knocking before sundering the door into splinters? But first, let's check and see who might be waiting for us on the other side."
Seldiliel casts detect thoughts

Seldiliel looks the man with the boars suspiciously and then whispers to him. "Something tells me I shouldn't trust you."
"Fine, we will meet you half way. Here, take what you need for my fair share.
Seldiliel opens up her bag and pulls out fistfuls of coins, semi precious gems, and even a couple bottles of wine and unceremoniously dumps the items on the ground until she's managed to assemble enough of her wealth to pay her fair share of the augur's fee.
She's just paying for it out of gold, but I like to assume some of her wealth is in the form of art objects and gems.

Seldiliel stands up from where she was meditating, a dark look blazing in her eyes as she walks up to the swamp folk.
"As you said, the city folks are liable to burn your whole rotten swamp to the ground if something terrible happened to befall their most glittering ornament, Oliviana. You may not have anything to gain from her capture but you will suffer none the less if even one silken hair on her precious head is damaged. It seems like WE'RE the ones doing YOU a favor by making sure she is returned safely. Tell us what we need to know and we'll talk about arranging a reward for you AFTER we bring Oliviana back safely."

Seldiliel stretches out her arms and shouts to the sky.
"Great, we now have your attention. We are looking for Oliviana, a woman from the city. Have you seen her pass by? Perhaps bound and being carried by others?"

"Well, I guess we need to move in to get a closer look.
Seldiliel will move in cautiously with the rest of the group, scanning the area with a detect magic.

Seldiliel will cast vanish on the wayang. "Come back to us swiftly, little one."

"These fetishes are strange, but I don't know what significance they hold. Perhaps they are crude offerings to some savage swamp god. Or they could just be a diversion for some degenerate swamper. Either way, I doubt they are important. Those track you found seem to be a more promising lead."
If someone wanted to scout out that hut, I could cast vanish on them. It's only 5 rounds, but it should be enough time to take a quick looksy.

"She said to seek out the sinking manor. That sounds like a place that the locals would know about."
If no one else has any better ideas, Selidiliel will clean herself up the best she can with prestidigitation and will start approaching swampers to find out if they know anything about a sinking manor.

Praise Nethys for prestidigitation!
Seldiliel stops and turns her head slightly to the side, like she is trying to listen to something. Her knuckles whiten as her hands form two tense fists.
WE WILL MAKE THEM SUFFER UNIMAGINABLE PAIN FOR THIS INDIGNITY! WHEN WE FIND THEM WE WILL DRAG THE BACK TO THE SEWERS, BACK TO THE DARKNESS AND WE WILL...
Get back in your cage! I didn't say you could come out! I'll tell you when you can come out!
Seldiliel rubs her temples with a pained look on her face and takes a few long, deep breaths before collecting herself. "It looks like we're on the right trail. Excellent work, Tak. Let see where it leads us."

"I agree with Sahess; we should let Tak do the orienting for us. He seems to be the most competent among us at that sort of thing. Everyone else stay alert, we don't know what horrors may be down here with us."
Seldiliel has a prismatic crystal which sheds 10 feet of dim light, but she can also cast her light spell on something of Thoriel's, if she would like. Seldiliel also casts another heightened awareness on herself, just in case.

Seldiliel talks to Nibbles in Elven, "Go swim ahead a little and see how deep that water is for us, will you?
That water is moving pretty quickly. I'm not a strong swimmer, so hopefully it's shallow enough to walk in.
If Nibbles reports back that the water is shallow enough to walk in, Seldiliel will take her first reluctant step into the streaming filth.

"At least we know Oliviana is alive...for now. That might change if we don't move with haste. I suppose its time for us to go into the sewers."

I didn't mean to drag things out; I was hoping someone else would jump in with suggestions. We should probably just go with those questions and then jump right into the sewers.
