Horatio does have a question to Hrothgar:
Horatio: Do you still have that Iron Flask we procured? Way back 5 years ago when we were facing undead and where Xelos killed me.
--- End quote ---
Hrothgar: "I still have it. What's on your mind?"
imurrx:
Horatio: I think I know how to bag these hags. Let me think for a second... hm... yes.... perhaps.... I got it! Oh this is great. Now everyone, this plan take some timely execution, good misdirection, a bit of luck, and we can con them and beat them.
First, Rufus, you need to die, still. but not really die. For all intended purposes, you will be dead to anyone who can observe your body. I will scribe a scroll of Magic Jar. Now, what this will do Rufus is take your sole out of your body and placed in a vessel called a jar, say a gem worth at least 100 gp. In this jar you will not know what is going out side unless you decide to possess another person. You can sense lifeforms with-in a certain range, they be positive or negative. Once you possess them, your wits and your knowledge will insert into the new body and the soul of the body you are possessing goes into the jar. This spell once enacted we will have a limited time do to this. It may take two days to scribe this, but since I am that good, I can do it in 8 hours.
Second, once the spell is enacted, we need to stage his death. We could slay him and inflict wounds on his corpse. Or we could poison him. Actually, that's better, Hroth we can concoct something. How will we pitch the death.... Oh oh... we will write a letter and put on his body and that says "If I cannot have you, nobody can". Yea that will work. We should do this back at the inn.
Third, we will need to conduct another "resurrection incantation" that we preformed to Karen. Since we are "tired" from her incantation, we will solicit the help of the three hags that are stalking us. I am sure they will help.
Fourth, while this is going on at the inn, I will infuse 3 bolts or arrows of Slaying Night Hags. We will need this for later on.
Fifth, Once everyone is back here to conduct the incantation, Rufus, you need to keep an eye on how many life forces you can sense. Once you notice 13-14 life force, start to possess once. There are 9 of us and 3 animals and once we have the 3 hags that is the number you need to keep tract of. Possessing a body is random so you will need to hop in and out of us until you land in a hags body. it is a 1/4 chance you will get it with each attempt. Everyone, you need to stay calm if you are possessed and transferred into the jar. We need to keep the rouse up. The hag that is entrapped in the jar will probably cannot do anything since they are imprisoned in there until you transfer back, the spell ends, or her natural body dies.
Sixth, Once you have entered the hag's body, You will use the command word of the Iron Flask. I am assuming since these hags can travel in the Astral plane, they are probably extraplanar beings. Since natives of this plain cannot naturally exist on another plain simultaneously, they must from another plane of existence. The Iron Flask will suck one of the hags into it and entrap it until it is uncorked or if you use the command word and uncork it which you can command it for one hour.
Seventh, once the 2nd hag is trapped, the third one will be altered something is afoot. That is when we slay that hag with the Bolt or Arrow of Slaying for Night Hags.
Eighth, We then kill the hag that Rufus is possesed. Rufus will go back to the jar and the hag will be slain since she has no body left to occupy. This must be done with a certain distance to the jar.
Ninth, We hide the dead bodies and release the hag from the Iron Flask using the command word. This is where we interrogate her for answers and then Rufus will either possess her again and we coup de gra or we shoot her in the back and slay her.
Now, Any questions?
MeatLips:
Holy shitsnakes, that seems really complicated. It seems like the plan the guys used in Ocean's Eleven was less complex... wait, are we gonna have a Chinese contortionist in the jar first?
I think we'll need to play this out and discuss it. It seems it would require us to work as smoothly as a fine swiss watch together, except we're a bunch of shit-chucking apes.
imurrx:
it's not that complicated.. Horatio, Rufus and who ever is the dedicated archer will carry the burden. Everyone else just needs to go along. There are other things that can go wrong that will be out of our control.
for doing this in game, I am ok with.

Hrothgar: "We can't use the iron flask, because of what's trapped inside of it...."
