Game summary for August 20, 2019, Reign of Winter campaign, Pathfinder Roleplaying Game, for Phoenix Gaming Club. Session included: Baknarla (Adlet Shaman Ranger played by Shane Bradley), Erris (Arctic Elf Bloodrager played by Casey Scruggs), Keravno (Aasimar Fighter played by Peyton Harmon), Magnus Erlingsson (Human Cleric played by Chris Harmon), Svala Alehorn (Orc Unchained Barbarian played by Todd Hughes), and Tarik (Human Bard played by Andrew Renfrow).

The team continued down a corridor and found a large set of double stone doors. Upon investigating them, they triggered a symbol of vulnerability that afflicted the entire party with massive penalties. Beyond the doors they discovered Queen Elvanna surrounded by a pair of slimy demodands and three elder ice elementals!
Elvanna cast mass hold person on the party while one of the demodands dropped an acid cloud on them. Erris emerged from the fog and was surrounded and devastated by the guardians. Tarik used bardic performance to enhance the team and then dispelled the acid fog. Keravno and Svala began advancing as Greta cast enhancements upon Svala’s axe.
Magnus divided the battlefield with a well-placed blade barrier. Elvanna blasted the party with chain lightning while the demodands and elementals ripped Erris to pieces by dragging him through the barrier and slaughtering him. The demodands tried and failed to dispel the blade barrier allowing Keravno time to destroy one of the elementals.
Baba Yaga was able to infuse Erris’ soul into the two stone idols near Elvanna and animate them! He was able to control them as shield guardians and found they contained powerful curses cast by the Queen of Witches! Queen Elvanna fell victim to a mighty curse causing her confusion as the team began to advance. Svala slew a demodand, and the team rallied as Magnus channeled positive energy.
Will they be able to take down the Queen before she recovers her wits or her minions rip more party members to shreds?
