Wow! The troll has to be Huge or even Gargantuan!
Zaidel continues to play his panpipes for the kaiju, eyes wide in shock.
Well, I said I'd try 'piping' the troll, so here I go..
The satyr dances and capers away from the troll's leg, so that the giant can see him. Zaidel continues to dance around and play while beginning the bardic performance Fascinate (Su). (Will DC 21 negates)

Zaidel breathed. "Well. I have piped actual rats before. Maybe I can entice the troll out with music?"
The cleric quietly got within earshot of the manor.
I'll likely have to use a wish to renovate the ruins of Jean's manor, Zaidel thought gloomily. The satyr then began to play a beautiful tune on his panpipes.

Zaidel goes to scout the situation out, then returns to the others.
"Holy Sh|t, Jean! I'm decked out in undead-slaying spells and you have a kaiju sleeping in your manor!" The satyr whispers. "How in Calistria's cum-stained comforter did that big fu<ker get IN your manor?!! I-I doubt much will remain standing after the fight!!"

Zaidel quietly puts his new pencil in his kilt pocket, as the married couple's prize packages appear.
The satyr pours some grape gatorade into Alia's tankard, and looks at the elf's jewelry. "A necklace of infertility, eh? I might need to invest in one of those? How much did it cost?"

Zaidel smiles. "It's just great to see the passion between you two is still burning after all these years." The satyr addresses the elf. "You see, those who have human perspectives still see a marriage lasting well over 100 years is a very long time. I'm sure the older I get, the more that human perspective will fade."
"I imagine with both partners being sublime, the risk of having more kids is ever-present. And a topic that occasionally comes up." Diplomacy:1d20 + 32 ⇒ (13) + 32 = 45

In the morning, Zaidel csan hear some kind of commotion coming from the tavern. Having an idea of what it could be, the cleric tells Shatash he needs to pray for his cleric spells., so he'll be down in an hour.
Orc:
"But don't wear underwear today. If all goes well and I'll be back in the afternoon to help in the bar, I want of fu<k you quietly through the shift"
Zaidel prays to Cayden Cailean as he drinks, getting the important spels needed for undead killing. Lightly tipsy, Zaidel comes down to stairs to see Shatash and her staff marvel at the new additions.
"Consider it a token of esteem from The Drunken God..and a father-to-be", the satyr smiled sheepishly. "Now my Daily Quest has begun. I must go."

With tired eyes, Zaidel looks at Shatash. "Alright. Well, good night." The satyr leans over and kisses the tavern owner.
As he drifts off to sleep, Zaidel makes a wish. "I wish, by the first light of dawn, The Owl Port Tavern expands all it's floors, including a connected bathroom facility!"

Owl Port Tavern
Around 2pm Owl Port Time, Sir Zaidel The Benevolent, Easier of Pain, Fateweaver, and Chosen of Cayden Cailean walks into The Owl Port Inn. Unnamed locals turn around in surprise.
”Greetings, my fellow Owl Portians..?” The satyr paused. ”It's me, Sir Zaidel. And the Blessing of the Drunken God be Upon you All!”
Shatash runs from behind the bar and nearly tackles Zaidel in an embrace. A kiss is shared as Zaidel puts the half-orc bar owner down. ”Equinox Manor is free of vermin. So I thought I stop by and to perform my caydenite duties and assist you and your Blessed Bar! WOW!” The cleric has a chance to look around, and true to her word, Shatash had put up several large wall decorations of Cayden's holy symbol, The Tankard. ”Shatash. Thank you so much!” The satyr said earnestly. ”Thank you.”
Zaidel's eyes darted around the room. ”I see a couple tables need bussing. I'll start there.” Zaidel kissed Shatash's cheek and got to work. As he worked, Zaidel greeted those at the bar and sitting in tables and booths. The caydenite used prestidigitation to clean tables, but would takes glasses back to the sink to wash them when time permitted. Many locals came up to Zaidel and asked him question. Mostly the questions were to seek confirmation on local gossip. Zaidel smiled 'yes' when asked if Zaidel was the father of Shatash's baby. ”As a cleric and healer, I wonder if I should midwife for Shatash when the time comes, or ask my network of Mistressian clerics for help. I haven't talked this with Shatash, of course, so it's all in the planning stage”. Zaidel gave a smile and wink to nearly listening Shatash.
Throughout the day, Shatash would corner Zaidel or Zaidel would corner Shatash in the backrooms of the tavern, and have multiple make out sessions, both lovers clearly waiting for the tavern to close. As he worked, Zaidel would try to sprinkle in the fact that he is expecting an influx of followers to Equinox Manor in the next few weeks into daily conversations. Shatash's working girls would flirt with Zaidel only when they thought Shatash wasn't working nearby. When asked about his immediate plans, Zaidel told the townsfolk he's be assisting Sir Jean in clearing out his manor of vermin. If anyone offered to help, the satyr would ask them to stay away as it looks like several giant dire rats made a warren in the manor, and it would be best if adventurers took care of the problem.
Bluff:1d20 + 30 ⇒ (9) + 30 = 39
As the day worn on, word got out of Sir Zaidel's return and the Owl Port Tavern got an influx of people coming back from working in the fields, or on the ferry. Zaidel met the local trash man, who was taken aback by the satyr's feeling of admiration. ”You do important work, sir. If you need any assistance, please don't hesitate to see me at Equinox Manor.” During the day, Zaidel and Shatash would take turns at the bar for break meals. The satyr had a nice plate of fried potatoes and some fish sauce for dipping as his break meal. The Owl Port Tavern began to fill with most of the local population. It was Shatash that invited Zaidel to play some music. With a big smile and a wink, Zaidel stood on the staircase leading up to the rooms and cast summon instrument and began to sing.
The Owl Port Tavern erupted in applause and hoots of joy as the set ended. Several more hours passed, and everyone went home, and Zaidel and Shatash both stayed to clear and straighten up. The cleric refiled the used liquor bottles for the next day.
”Well, I think that's it? Anything else to put away or clean?” Zaidel asked.
Shatash looked around. ”No. It would have taken longer without your help. I'll just lock the doors tight.”
The half-orc went to put the bars on the door and lock the locks, while Zaidel turned down the lights. Through the dark, Shatash knew where all the tables were so it was no real feat to find her way back into Zaidel's arms. ”I heard you had chains waiting for me”, Zaidel breathed coming up for air.
”No! Damn you! You kept me horny all day!” Both lover crumple to the clean bar room floor.
Shatash (NSFW):
The ravenous half-orc pulled of Zaidel's kilt, and leaned down to put the satyr's entire c0ck in her mouth. Zaidel's penis swelled quickly under the shaman's tongue. ”Oh Fu<k!” Zaidel moaned as Shatash worked his c0ck like a woman possessed. When Zaidel's throbbing peni$ was a stiff as it could be, Shatash's silhouette could be seen removing her skirt and underwear as she quickly swatted over Zaidel, guiding his c0ck inside here. Zaidel could feel the half-orc's wet pu$$y as she slide down; she was ready. Shatash's hips grind on Zaidel for several minutes. ”Oh No!” she cried as she shakenly got to her feet, as her orgasm spilled over the floor and Zaidel. ”Dammit. I wanted that to last longer.” Zaidel did his best to assure his half-orc lover, but he still had hungry eyes. ”We have all night, my dear. But you will be punished.” The satyr then pulled Shatash down to the floor and removed the rest of her clothes. Zaidel knelt over her head as he inserted his c0ck in her mouth. The satyr facefu<ked Shatash for a few minutes, not so deep she can't breathe. Then, taking a few steps down her torso, Zaidel wrapped his thunderous hard-on in between Shatash's larger, but still muscular t|ts. The cleric t|tfu<ked the shaman until he came over her cleavage and chin and some of her ears. Zaidel roared with pleasure. "I think I can do this for a couple more hours until I need my 8 hours of sleep so I can get my clerical spells the next day."
Eventually, Shatash and Zaidel lie in Shatash's bed together. ”Shatash, I was wondering if the Spirits have spoken to you about the baby. Have you asked for their blessing? I wouldn't be upset if you did.”
Smiling to himself, Zaidel asks another question. ”Shatash. If money and time was no object, what one improvement would you want tavern?”

"As I understand it, Jean's Manor also has undead. In the morning, I'll ask Cayden for some better clerical spells for undead slaying. We'll invade the manor at noon. I'm wondering if the undead find out my manor is clear and realize they're next and vacate. Or maybe, more than likely, barricade themselves more", Zaidel shrugs.
"I'm gonna spend the rest of my day in the town tavern, helping Shatash, meeting my new neighbors, and tending to the faithful. You two wanna come?"

Lady Narcise wrote:
"They do not have strong ties to any court to my knowledge, though if you would investigate them before decimating them that would be appreciated." She requests.
"Yes, Lady Narcise", the satyr nods. "Tomorrow, we shall clear Jean's manor of undead."
Zaidel steps forward. "I don't suppose you have heard from Stratton? The third member of Aeria Gloris you granted a manor to? He left our number several months ago, searching for a means to free the spirit of his sword."

Zaidel bows in a courtly manner, especially since Lady Narcise will be their noble ruler and commander.
Diplomacy:1d20 + 42 ⇒ (18) + 42 = 60
At the mention of the survivors, the satyr poses some questions. "Lady Narcise, what is your opinion of the mental state of the survivors? I doubt they have opened up so soon after their ordeal ended. The ladies may need fey magics to help them sleep, which I can provide if needed." Sense Motive (to see if Lady Narcise is being truthful about her opinion):1d20 + 26 ⇒ (2) + 26 = 28
Zaidel's handsome brow furrowed. "Evil fey? Do we yet know if they have strong ties to the Unseelie Court?"
The caydenite smiled at the mention of the influx of people. "Well, Lady Narcise, I have been recruiting followers for Equinox Manor. Once it is fixed up, it shall be a school for Caydenite Faith; training the next generation of clerics, bards, and swashbucklers. Also, we may get some diehard fans of mine stopping by. And Cayden Cailean, as a Deity, can come and go as he pleases. I hope the rejuvenated Equinox Manor will be a boon to this lovey community I shall call home. Being the only tavern in the area, I hope to work closely with Shatash and The Owl Port Tavern as a center of caydenite worship in the area." Diplomacy:1d20 + 42 ⇒ (15) + 42 = 57

GM Wolf, you must know by now how much I'm personally invested in Arcanium. This is has been favorite Campaign Ever in over 25 years of RPGs!
I would rather keep all my cool bonuses, but if they make the campaign unwieldy for you to continue, then let's discuss what needs to change.
What I Deeply Wish To Keep
________________________________________
* My Ability Scores - I feel Zaidel earned those over quests and study. Please let Zaidel continue to be the Charisma juggernaut he is!
*Sublime Template - I like the fact that Zaidel could possibly live forever if he met the right conditions. He is a satyr, a fey, so who knows if they can die in a traditional manner or get reincarnated after perma-death. Plus the bonuses help Zaidel channel energy so abundantly.
What Zaidel Can Live Without
__________________________________________
*Fateweaver - Though I don't think Zaidel has abused this ability much; it is an overpowered ability, and must hamper your ability to plan fun encounters. Zaidel will just be a normal adventurer in that respect: no longer adventuring out of a pure sense of goodness, but to be able to feed himself and his (soon-to-be) followers and (soon-to-be) children.
Because Jellena is the Originator of the Fateweaver ability and a DMPC, will she keep it or lose it?
*Crippling Strike - Only used it once. fee free to remove it.
*Trinkets on weapons - Zaidel only had one, which allowed a +1 to attack vs. evil.
*dark urge/day - Zaidel really hasn't use it yet, but with his current charisma; he doesn't really need that temptation. But I'd like to keep all the Blue Book spells Zaidel acquired from it.
Would Understand If Removed
_________________________________________
*Blue/Green Screen/Boost Points - Those are fun and a great way to improve your character in little ways.

Matthew and Zaidel knock on the Lady Narcise's front door. The head butler opens the door. "Ah. Good. You survived. Lady Narcise is expecting you. This way."
The hulking warden and the satyr follow the butler into the manor.

The satyr turns to the dragon and warden and breathes a sigh of relief. "Looks clear. Thanks guys. Jean, I only have 8 more Channel Energies today. If you don't mind, we'll hit your manor at high noon tomorrow."
"I'd like to head over to Shatash's house. To check on the survivors, and make sure Shatash and Alia are safe from the survivors."

"These ladies were prisoners of the vampires inside my manor", Zaidel explains. "I gave them instruction tp go directly to the Mayor's residence less they cause a panic."

The satyr was surprised to receive such treatment after tales of Shatash's fury met his ears. Zaide returned the favor by kissing his half-orc lover passionately.
"Shatash!" The cleric gasped as he regained his breath. "I didn't visit you first when I got back is because our group is secretly taking care of several vampire nests. And midday is the best time to strike. Also", Zaidel smirked. "I know our reunion wouldn't be short. So..Greater Good, and all that. Besides, if this goes well, I'm here to stay. Also, I didn't want to start a panic is our pans were discussed at the tavern."

Zaidel smiles to see the other party members arrive and greets each of them in turn.
"Hi, Matthew! Thanks for coming! Hello, Alia! Wonderful to see you! Greetings, Ramie! Thank you so much!"
The satyr stares in awe of the half-orc shaman. Shatash still looked as muscled as before, but her hips were broader. Her breasts a little larger, and her face looked fuller.
"Shatash. Wow. You look radiant. Motherhood suits you", Zaidel blushed.Diplomacy (Charming):1d20 + 42 + 2 ⇒ (18) + 42 + 2 = 62 The cleric held his arms open for an embrace.
Shatash likely noticed Zaidel looks definitely more muscular since they last met. Thanks to the Manual of Gainful Exercise +5
