Perf's quick application of arcane magic strengthens the ritual, while Winona's prayers push the spirits back. Jathus steps in to intimidate the clawed spirits and they fade away into non-existence.
Nualia
A moment later, you hear a mournful cry and the spirit of Nualia appears before you, both beautiful and terrible. She is an aasimar woman with long hair wearing a breastplate that leaves her scarred abdomen exposed, her left hand a demonic claw and her eyes glowing with white light. Her entire ghostly form sheds a pulsing blue-green glow, an amplification of the moonlight into which she has been called.
The spirit looks at Father Zantus and cocks her head, speaking in a haunting voice,
"I remember you... why did you call upon me... you hated me... you all hated me..." Father Zantus is in a trance as he leads the ritual, and so it's left to you to speak to the spirit.
OOC:
This will be run as an
influence encounter. Basically, the more influence points you can gather, the better the encounter will turn out. Generally you will want to try the Discovery action first to learn things about the target and then Influence action to gain influence. There will be ten turns and you can each take one of the actions per turn
I recommend reading at least the first part of the influence rules so you have some idea what's going on
Appropriate Discovery Actions here are: Demon Lore, Society, Perception
