Father Donnagin flashes a smile at Blau and moves to take a seat. "Oh nothing too specific, I've been doing my rounds in town all morning, so a diversion is welcome. Is there any particular topic you would like to..." The man cries out as a pair of blades are driven into his back and a spell from Kiven assaults his ears. His eyes are full of shock and surprise as his supposed friend strikes him in the face.
The priest topples over onto the floor, but manages to compose himself enough to recite a short prayer, enveloping his body in a sheen of golden light.
Sanctuary spell. In order to directly attack the father while this spell is active, you must pass a DC 14 Will save. Failure not only means the action is wasted, but that you will not be able to even try again to directly attack him for the duration of the spell. This only applies to spells/attacks/effects that require an attack roll. AOE effects, spells that require a save, and things like grapple checks are not affected. The sanctuary spell is automatically ended the moment the person benefiting from it takes any sort of offensive action.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Blau laughs at the shiny, abused Father and says "Asmodeus is tired of Mitra's monopoly in the world! He - and many, many others -seek to right the imbalance your bright God has thrown akimbo, and sends his servants to bring him back down to the level he is meant to be!"
The rocky warpriest then summons the powerful energy of his deity and tries to strike the shielded priest.
Will save to attack: 21
As his fists penetrate the magical barrier with ease, he adds "See?! Even here your God's power fails you against the justice of Asmodeus' cause!"

He overcomes the divine forces protecting the priest and moves so at least one of his colleagues helps splits the priest's attention, then does his best to stab his rapier into the prone figure.
Selena's eyes gleam as she moves in for the kill. As she moves to strike him more the golden sheen distracts her. Unable to muster energy to strike him she scowls. " what manner of trickery is this?" Mentally she instructs Poe to maintain a watch over the nearby area and to inform her of any movement in their direction.
Kiven tries to raise his crossbow to assist in the brutal murder of Father Donnagin but his own will combined with the support of Asmodeus is still not enough to overcome the divine protection. Kiven's expression quickly changes to one of anger, his brow furrowing and his eyes narrowing as he calls out another word of Elven and casts a familiar spell.
Ear Piercing Scream with no metamagic

(just level 1 this time, DC17 vs Daze and try to halve the damage.)
Seeing Selena struggle to attack as he had and listening to her mention trickery, Kiven 'suggests' "restrain him, and take away his spellcasting focus!"
Blau takes advantage of the Priest's incapacitation and grabs his wrists tightly, pulling them around his back to prepare to restrain him further. Leveraging his close connection to his God, he calls upon Asmodeus' sense of justice and balance to penetrate through the still active spell.

Respar stabs the priest again, while Blau, Kiven, and Selena work together to strip him of his holy symbol. Soon enough, the slightly portly Father Donnagin lies helpless before you, and a moment's further work ends his life.
He never once begged for mercy.
While you are cleaning up the mess, Poe issues a warning. A part of guards from the fort are heading this way. They don't have weapons drawn or otherwise appear to be expecting trouble, but they do have the look of men with a serious task.
"Fanatics." Blau says contemptuously before pulling out a scroll and casting a spell over the corpse. Within moments, the body is reduced to clean, unblemished bones which he then moves into a firewood box near the hearth. "Think that's good enough? Or do you want to conceal them elsewhere? Someone with better patience than I should make themselves look like Father Fauxcourt (Blau) or this mesmerized fanatic (Priest)."
OOC Scroll of Decompose Corpse used. Respar should probably do the bluff as the hedge priest or even Father Donnagin. Blau then tries to look like a simple peasant with rough clothing and dumb expression.

Respar thinks quickly and turns into the priest. "Kiven, look like Eddarly! Selena, Mrs. Nott! Let's find out what they want. We might kill them, and assume their guises as well."
OOC: Dai, let me know when I need to make a Bluff check
The group quickly shifts into their respective disguises as the two guards approach. As Blau opens the door, one of them says, "Greetings sir, we were looking for... Oh yes, Father Donnagin, Captain Eddarly. Sirs, there's a situation at the fort, your presence is requested, especially you Father. Some manner of illness, or perhaps poison."
'Father Donnagin,' says, "Goodness! I will need some things." He turns to Blau and says, "My friend, would you assist me? This way." He gestures to another room, and once Blau begins moving that way he turns to the guards. "Would one of you be so kind as to also help? I might need quite a few things. Perhaps the other can help Captain Eddarly escort Mrs. Mott home, then return here for the walk back to the keep. Thank you kindly." He follows behind the guard and Blau into the other room, closing the door and making as if to get something from behind it, then stabs the guard in the back.

"Of course, my friend." Father Fauxcour says, and follows. On the expected attack from Respar/Donnagin, Blau acts, striking the unsuspecting guard with both fists!

Seeing Selena struggle to attack as he had and listening to her mention trickery, Kiven 'suggests' "restrain him, and take away his spellcasting focus!"
Selena frowns and then begins grappling with the prone priest. She tries to rip his focus away from him.
Grappling ( CMB) 7
Blau and Respar strike at the belaboured priest, while Kiven and Selena have more trouble.
Kiven's spell slams home, and Donnagin's head hits the floor even as he'd looked like he'd been about to try and stand up.
Blau takes advantage of the Priest's incapacitation and grabs his wrists tightly, pulling them around his back to prepare to restrain him further. Leveraging his close connection to his God, he calls upon Asmodeus' sense of justice and balance to penetrate through the still active spell.

Selena growls at the priest. " Enough of this nonsense. I am going to enjoy torturing you to death. " She reaches again for his focus.

Kiven too reaches down and grasps at the holy symbol around Father Donnagin's neck, trying to remove it.
(CMB roll = 15 as discussed in chat)
Respar stabs the priest again, while Blau, Kiven, and Selena work together to strip him of his holy symbol. Soon enough, the slightly portly Father Donnagin lies helpless before you, and a moment's further work ends his life.
