Felix walks up to the man and woman with an old woman following him (a Binder focused on diplomacy). A person in the crowd casts a spell on the woman as she walks by (Guidance of the Avatar from the cleric 5, who is just leaving to go to the Airship). Felix lets the woman do the talking. She tries to smooth things over.
"I am terribly sorry for this embarrassing situation. Lucy is a very naughty child, and that her actions can't be taken seriously. We'll make sure she is punished appropriately, and please can we make this unfortunate situation up to you in any way? Would you like to join us for a more private party on the band's airship?"
[spoiler]Venerable Half-elf Binder 1
Feats: SF: Diplomacy
Skills: 4 ranks Diplomacy
Equipment: MW diplomacy tool
Naberius bound
Diplomacy 25 (10+4ranks+4cha+2race+2circ+3feat)
add +20 from Guidance of the Avatar from the cleric 5, before he goes back to the ship, for a total Diplomacy check of 45.[/spoiler]
While she is talking, Eddie steals the Psionic Endowment and Greater Psionic Endowment feats from a follower on the ship using Feat Leech, and gets ready to dominate the pair. (3 pps)
Using his Thrallherd special ability, he can subtract 5 from the cost of Psionic Dominate, making the base cost 2 power points. He then augments it as follows: 2 (base)+ 2(additional target) +2(1 hr duration) +4 (affects humanoids, animals, fey, giants, magical beasts, monstrous humanoids, aberrations, dragons, elementals, or outsiders). He expends his focus to use Greater Psionic Endowment, making the DC 28 (10+8int+2feat+4power+4augment). (10 pps, if he has to use it)
Assuming the Diplomacy fails, he manifests this using his psicrystal (which is with Felix) as the point of origin. He looks through the Ring Gate to see the targets (or uses Sense Link first, if that won't work).
