The party brings the druid captive back into Thrushmoor. The local fisherman Tolli is now grateful of the party for helping him with his fears of his local fishing hole. But as the party comes into town they become part of an scuffle with 11 townsfolk and the new painter that has come to town to make some paintings.

In which they find a town that has a lot of weird things going on.

They attempt to befriend Cesadia by running an errand for her. Help out a stressed out old fisherman with his worries. They find Tito in The Stain and ask him about his worries. Tito says that he can't go out fishing anymore since he is terrified of a cave he found by his favorite fishing hole. The party goes to the cave and fights a bunch of plant creatures. And then finally subduing a druid that attacks them once they enter her bedroom.

Who are they? What were they doing in Thrushmoor? etc. etc.

Game Session 8 - Tatterman Gonna Get You - Book 1, Part 3, Episode 3


Loot

The coal and chalk marked pages decorating the final wing of rooms that had text on their backsides. Dr. Twitch and friends spend an hour collecting all the pages in this room and then an additional 6 hours placing them in the proper order... The resulting book is a Book of Extended Summoning (Pathfinder RPG Ultimate Equipment 283) keyed to chaotic alignment.

Ulver Zandalus Gear
+1 Light Mace
Oil of Magic Weapon
Potion of Bear's Endurance
Potion of Cure Moderate Wounds
Potion of Invisibility

The Tatterman Gear
+1 War Razor
Ring of Protection +1
A set of Badly Soiled Stripes of Cloth..

Oneirogen's Gear
3 pairs of badly soiled patients robes...

Summary

The party is between 3 Oneirogen's spewing large volumes of the yellow mist into the room that is mainly rolling out into the open wall to the North. While the south wall has a haunt that really wants to party to stare at the drawings...
Once Muldor gets the Oneirogen's to attack him the party makes short work of them.
Then they start to go down a long hallway, which at the end they see Ulver Zandalus, who appears to be an animated body that does some spell casting and fighting. The party makes short work of him as well... Only to find in his place is the Tatterman!

Now the Tatterman has a number of powers which made the combat somewhat complicated and all the players started googling why he seemed so over powered. In the forums, we found a number of different results regarding how a group of level 3 players dealt with a supposed CR 5 creature that had some seriously powerful abilities. Initially most of the players became Panicked due to the aura's. So the Tatterman chases the party through the asylum and then they fight him right outside the Shrine to Pharasma.

The Forums had comments like:

https://paizo.com/threads/rzs2u1gf?Does-the-Tatterman-need-beefing-upthis forum says he's underpowered, yet a lot of GM's said he TPK'ed their parties...


The Tatterman! 2 Auras, DR, Regen, and butt load of spells!
