This small, candlelit bedroom is empty save for a plain wooden bed and a night table where a pale candle burns in an iron candleholder. The bed is perfectly made, but the sheets display an ominous, dark crimson stain in the middle of the bed. Shortly after you enter, the ghostly form of a woman manifests from the stain on the bed. Roll initiative. Then roll Arcana and History checks.

You know that this is an Animate Dream, which is not an undead, but instead a fragment of a dream that feeds off of emotion, in particular fear. You also know that this Animate Dream is in the form of Yelizaveta, the 13th daughter of Baba Yaga and the previous queen of Irrisen.

Against their better judgement Zaf becomes a Winter Wolf in readiness to face the the Dream. Despite taking such a form, they keep back and pace around as much as they can, seeking an opening.
Action: Activate Rimepelt and become Zawolfy.

When you realize you're doing too much: Signature.
Both of Jirel's handaxes pass harmlessly through the Animated Dream and find purchase in the wall of the room. Nadya stands in awe of what's before her. "Yeleezaveta? Ees thees where you hef been for the last one hundred years? Are her other daughters here?"
I AM NEITHER DEAD NOR ALIVE. The Dream states in a distorted voice. I AM A FRAGMENT OF THE NIGHTMARES YELIZAVETA HAD BEFORE HER DEATH. I AM HER,YET ALSO NOT.
As soon as the dream finishes saying this, it becomes visibly enraged and floats over to Nadya, attempting to touch her.
Rose holds onto her staff tightly, holding a spell. "W-we can help you, Yelizaveta! Just tell us what you want!"
Persuasion(if needed): 6
(Ready trigger will be if the dream doesn't answer and lashes out at anyone, she will cast [spell]Magic Missile and do 15 force damage to her)

Jirel would huff. Those axes would have hit a physical target, but that obviously didn’t help here. Though, something nagged at the back of her mind that there’s a reason why Zawolf is holding and Rose is reasoning. She just couldn’t quite put her finger on it. With a grumble, the barbarian would reach for the greataxe gifted to her by Rose, trusting that this blade would sink into it’s target should she have the pleasure of sparring with the ghost maiden. She’ll step to stand firm with Rose and Zawolfy.
The firbolg squeaks and shrinks back. “M-m-maybe you should try, Jasun...”

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
"Well shit. Get in ****'n line. Oh wait! Ya missed that ship ages ago! So why don't you shut up and chill the **** out!"Zaf barks out, and then takes a deep breath. What comes out next is a gale so chill, it yet may freeze even the dead to super death.

REVENGE. BABA YAGA MUST PAY FOR WHAT SHE HAS DONE TO ME.
Yelizaveta gets even angrier after that declaration. Rose, you can tell that she's going to get violent soon.
