Re: Bink's Wrath of the Righteous OOC
Holy cow, what a powerful thing to see. Filburn (and I) really screwed the pooch here. Hopefully everyone else can fix this and help Lieutenant Jhestander recover his paladin status.
Two things stand out to me about this:
- This is frighteningly close to a worst-case scenario in Filburn's mind for what could happen to Grace, if things go very, very wrong. I've mentioned it before that Filburn is committed to being the one to "fall on the grenade" and do [Evil] things (if necessary) to protect Grace from such a risk. Filburn is going to take this development very seriously...
- What would happen if this became a common problem in the army? Disaster, that's what. We have to ensure the other paladins don't fall and that any that have fallen are atoned and recover, if possible.

Re: Bink's Wrath of the Righteous OOC
Great thoughts and write up.
I think it’s a combination of these: “ Failure to "respect legitimate authority, act with honor”
Something along the lines of just letting doubt enter into his mind, and not excising it immediately, letting it fester and grow into something more pernicious, so he justifies himself in not respecting the leaders actions, justification for things you know are wrong is a slippery slope, and it got in the floorboards, and now it’s infested the structure.
Other paladins/clerics will most definitely be the best people to help, but it will be interesting, this may be reacted to by disgust depending on how we handle it. Unfortunately, atonement is a 5th level spell, so a tad far out from our current resources.
But this should provide a great opportunity for the religious fervor of the army to take a moment and reflect, secure and bolster their faith, as a group.
To wit, who is the most senior paladin/cleric in the army right now?Spoiler

Re: Bink's Wrath of the Righteous OOC
The book doesn't go into the details, but the Arles is described as an ex-paladin "at the start of this mission." So it's not precisely a new development, but I would imagine has been something like a long time coming.
Surely, his fall was a gradual one- perhaps he didn't even truly notice it when it happened. No doubt some degree of doubt crept into his thinking and poisoned his ability or desire to continue acting with honor and respecting legitimate authority. Undeniably, a small taste of that last bit was on display in his dealings with you all, just now.
Perhaps the greatest issue here is that his behavior has been sedition, though now you know a bit more about the why. I'm happy to see the discussions taking place, in general

Re: Bink's Wrath of the Righteous OOC
Morevek is hoping to figure out the kind of demon that attacked Elrembriel, and/or recall any useful information about it as pertains to where it might fall in the 'organization' of the demonic forces at the Worldwound, what tactics they might employ, how much they might communicate to others, etc.

Re: Bink's Wrath of the Righteous OOC
Short answer: The demon that attacked Elrembriel is an Incubus. Between the fight before and your time to consider, that much is obvious. He's powerful enough to be a relatively high-ranking "officer" in whatever hierarchy actually matters to the demons. Generally, subterfuge and seduction are his primary tools, though they are able to make good use of the blade. There's nothing really special about the scimitar, and it seems probable he has/has access to more.
In particular, they often charm prey, using political power to gain influence and enacting their own will through the use of magical suggestion. They (like most high level demons) can teleport, and have some measure of ability to cause magical despair and summon the halberd-wielding, goat-headed schir demons.
The details on communication within the ranks are beyond results like that.

Re: Bink's Wrath of the Righteous OOC
Elrembriel will move into the cloud with the goal to disbelieve it and therefore, see through it.
First: Free action, Prescience (1d20)[2]; if result is 11 or better, use it instead of the d20 roll in the Will saving throw.
Will save (1d20+12)[25] including a +4 bonus from this rule: "If any viewer successfully disbelieves an illusion and communicates this fact to others, each such viewer gains a saving throw with a +4 bonus."

Re: Bink's Wrath of the Righteous OOC
You and Elrembriel both rolled high enough to basically read the monster entry for shadow demon.
The only distinction is we're using the updated possession rules: it has a spell like ability to cast possession, as opposed to magic jar. It's mostly the same, just doesn't rely on a physical container to store the victim's soul while it's body is dominated.
