OK, so there are definite issues. Please speak up on stuff like this so I can at least try to address the disengagement. Really, criticism is more than welcome.

You can't make everyone love every arc, we have different tastes, so the arcs Azel's find most entertaining might be the kind I find boring, and it's the same the other way around.

I like reading this arc, but I don't want to participate as while I like intrigue stories, I don't like playing intrigue games, there's some who just plain don't find intrigue interesting, and some who find it the best part of the game.

Some people complain that the Planar adventures are just detracting from the plot, but for me the best arcs are those where we do such adventuring, not to say that I would want a dungeon delver quest, but I like us meeting new cultures and people, so times where we go off into the unknown, is the best for me.

So you decided to get out of your contract with Azel, by mutilating your souls so much you no longer register, as the poor sod who signed the contract?
 
Looking good @egoo !
Edit:
I don't want to go loud until we know what we stand to lose when this ritual cooks off.

Let's say, it takes all the people here, and fuses their minds bodies and souls into a kind of... Giant demon monster?

That'd be bad!

@Goldfish do we want to check out room or lady first to make sure no traps or something?

Plan updated.

[X] When the Demon returns, use Wild Arcana to duplicate the effects of an Unconscious Agenda spell on it as a Standard Action. The implanted compulsion will be to immediately seek out its master, walking or flying as necessary to reach them.
-[X] While waiting for the Demon to return, carefully inspect the lady of the house for signs of enchantment, magical paraphernalia, or other mystical items or substances, then check closely examine the room in which you found her.

    -[X] Use Bloodwish to break their connection to this Ritual. Use Viserys best judgement to decide if a simulated Remove Curse, Break Enchantment or a direct Limited Wish isthe best chance.
    -[X] Buff up with Scintillating Scales, Greater Blink, and Arcane Spellsurge
    -[X] Turtle the demon, then start erasing the sigils in the guest rooms, starting with that of Forlys.

Wild Arcana (Su): As a standard action, you can expend one use of mythic power to cast any one arcane spell without expending a prepared spell or spell slot. The spell must be on one of your arcane class spell lists, must be of a level that you can cast with that arcane spellcasting class, and must have a casting time of "1 standard action" (or less). You don't need to have the spell prepared, nor does it need to be on your list of spells known. When casting a spell in this way, you treat your caster level as 2 levels higher for the purpose of any effect dependent on level. You can apply any metamagic feats you know to this spell, but its total adjusted level can't be greater than that of the highest-level arcane spell you can cast from that spellcasting class.

I checked the d20PFSRD and see what you are referencing now. I can't tell if the errata was ever made official, but I'm convinced. Plan updated.
 
d20pfsrd erratas are suggestions as far as I have noticed in prior browsing, probably treat it similar as CustServ for 3.5, attempting to balance in good sensen but not always right or consistent.

Edit:

Evil mortal spellcasters are fond of conjuring coloxus demons for similar roles, but the monsters also work well as assassins. Even in this role, a coloxus is dignified and polite. Only when presented with a reflection of itself does the normally civilized coloxus show its true demonic colors—any creature foolish enough to trick a coloxus into looking at a mirror finds herself the eternal foe of an insulted and scandalized demon.

Mirror Polish.

Long story short, we're tricking Lys into marching against us for the sole purpose of giving us the chance to utterly crush their armies in the field of battle. After that's accomplished, we'll march into a city that's been conveniently stripped of most of the men of fighting age who would have opposed us and claim it as our own.

We're at this manse because one of the guys here saw the plans of his fellow Lyseni to fight us as the dumpster fire they were and was doing everything in his power to sabotage it. He poisoned the entire army, impressively enough. That was inconvenient for us, so we're basically here to scold him.

Of course since we found out a high level demon, and we are assuming a higher level boss, are pull strings here it's in our best interest to find out what it is.

That answers part of it, but I mean the "blooding the Dothraki" part of the plan, why do we care this particular batch of murdering rapist slavers who to the average Essos peasant would be more damaging to our reputation to be associated with than Actual Devils, cause the Dothraki are the ones everybody in Essos knows slaughter villages and ransom cities for slaves. They are just Ironborn without the salt and with a worse temper.

Ah. I can't speak for everyone, but I care because the Dothraki are the best cavalry we could ask for, and we're basically gathering them up for free. With them firmly under our control it only helps us intimidate the rest of Essos into submission. And with this blooding, Rhango will proceed to mop up the rest of his kinsmen into his khalasar for us so they're not just randomly scattered.

While I totally agree with the sentiment, those aren't our dorthraki, you see?

We are making Mongols out of them, basically.
Slowly.
