@Tarith: You strike again, and again Anzaril disappears 10ft. away from you.

"You are becoming most annoying. Let's try that again."

As she gestures, Tarith's form seems to twist for a second, but nothing happens.
"Your magic won't work on me"
(1d20+21)[25](should be believable by now...)
He then teleports 10 feet, and stabs away

@Tarith: None of your attacks connect, sadly. Anzaril takes a 5ft. step and closes her eyes for a few seconds. Then begins to blink, just like you.

"How much longer can you stay underwater, huh?"

@You slash away at Anzaril, but only one of your attacks hits the mark. The fey taunts you.

"You keep attacking me. And who knows, you might wear me down, even kill me. If that is so? How will you gain access to the Fang?"

Anzaril moves away 50 ft. (incurring 1 AoO) and casts again

Tarith pauses, and looks around for a second
"So... um... was that supposed to do anything?"

Tarith steps towards her, and continues to emulate a stabby death machine, and stabs away...

@Xander: You are frozen in place (assuming Tarith did not warn you about the magical trap). You then see Anzaril conversing with Dantie and Tarith. You now have a better idea of what she is.

Anzaril is a rare fey known as a Glaistig. They are outcasts even among their kind because, like the more sinister vampires, Glaistigs feed of blood, preferably sentient creatures, which provide far more sustenance. It is known, however, that these creatures need to feed once every month to satiate their hunger. After that, they are usually quite amicable.

@Tarith: You feel her piercing eyes invade your mind. Then, you realize you have become her puppet. Anzaril coughs some blood and clutches her dress, as blood swims around her.

"You were a nasty piece of work, but now, you are mine. First order of business. Drop those accursed daggers."

Struggling against the effect, Tarith drops his valuable daggers, watching them sadly as the sink, and are lost.

Xander stares in horror as communications between the people he traveled here with and the fey break down, resulting in violence.
Why did the woman choose to paralyze us, I would have liked to have spoken to her before this mess began.
It has been only violence since I met these people, What I would not give for my quarters at the university.

@Tarith: Anzaril examines your hands carefully. "Hmmm..."

Spoiler


She removes your ring.

"So this is why you were so nimble.... Very well. As your last task, swim to the surface, turn back to your former wretched self, and tell Dantie that Anzaril's Fang is out of the question. Be gone now, mortal. And may I never see your face again."

Anzaril swims into the kelp with the items and disappears from view.

@The Party: Almost an hour goes by and you watch bubbles coming from a side of the islet. The glowing orbs fly away into the mist and you see a mer-creature pop its head out of the water. It takes a deep breath and then its features change, revealing to be Tarith.

That's good enough. Go back to being a drooling yet somewhat sentient monkey again.

The effect wears off.

"Damn it, I almost had her. Then she managed to gain control of my mind. She forced me to drop my daggers, and she took my ring. I intend on getting those back, as without them, I am more or less useless. I might still be able to find her, and defeat her before she heals herself. Xander, would you mind if I took one of your spells, so that I might retrieve my items?"

As Dantie sees Tarith go under water he tries to think of a way to help his friend, but can not find any way to help him and so waits. As Tarith resurfaces and repeats what he was told to say Danties anger is clearly seen. The bloody sea devil. No wounder Balion will not be her consort. I suggest we all fall back for now until tomorrow, after all Tarith you may be strong, but without your daggers, and some support you may have a hard time. I have already though of the spells needed to cancel this problem. If we retreat for at least two hours I could perhaps be able to help slightly. But I am not sure. If you are willing to try I am though. Dantie then looks to the group waiting for their answer, though he is mad at Tarith he is waiting for the right time, at this moment they must appear strong and united.

"I know where my daggers are, but I don't have enough time to get there, and back. I might also be able to figure out where she went afterwards. If you can let me use one of your second sphere spells, I can have enough time to get there, and be back, in 2 hours, making me a more effective combatant"

Dantie thinks about what Tarith says, Go ahead and take them. It seems your way may be wiser. Once done though meet us back on the shore, we need to be somewhere away from the water. At least then we will have some form of protection. Dantie says then lets Tarith use his spells.

Dantie then casts a spell to summon a celestial creature to fly him and one other person over to the shore if needed be.
