You just let the guards fight the orc a bit more.
The guards give another concentrated effort to kill the orc. The charge is a bit sloppy, but they to the orc and start chopping. (guard's rolls= 8x2, 12 and 5)
The orc is not able to get away, and only barely manages to scamper away this time.(orc rolls= 8, ,6, 2, 14)
He stands back up somewhere nearby, but the captain rams him onto the ground with a shoulder bash, and then he proceeds to slap the orc with the flat of his blade.(captain roll=12) (orc roll= 1)

The captain, now in control of this battle, casts hold person while the orc attempts to hit him. His punches just aren't cutting it against the captain now, and the hold person spell manages to complete itself.
The orc is now stuck in a paralyzed state. One guard goes outside to gather some priests to heal their injured buddy, and to carry the orc off to the prison.
Well, that plan went down the crapper. The captain is walking towards your priest. He also takes off his helmet, showing a pretty, if battle-hardened face.

What now?

A much easier way to do things, says The Creator!


Illusion
Still an illusion, but now much better! I will need to specify what kind of illusion I wish though.

[Gentlefish]

Have our priestess burst into tears and fall to her knees, and thank the captain profusely. I mean, they did save our lives, didn't they?

[flame99]

I'm out of good ideas. Posses the guard, maybe? Then again, he seems to be a pally at the very least.

Sure but what should we do after that?  We still need a host and the guard captain is a possibility.

Sounds like a plan. Maybe pause a moment first, as if you were faking fearlessness before you cracked, which happened just now.

[RAM]

Priestess throws up on captain, it is a perfectly natural fear response...

[Kitten Snot]

You whisper to the priestess what your plan is. Instead of breaking down, she instead rises up.
Were you hurt, Madam?
I am more then capable without the help of another, I assure you. I just didn't get involved to a raging orc fight. If he attacked me, he would have been melted.
She emphasizes that last word, looking the captain in the eye, as if daring him.
Fine then. But do me a favor: I don't care about what gods you worship, but keep the staff hidden in some way. Or else some less accepting people will lynch you. If you're lucky.

The priestess just scoffs at his notion, and finishes her drink.
You both go outside, avoiding the priests before they get here.
Why did you not do as I said? We could have influenced him.
Crying is a sign of weakness, not to mention I am not a good actor.
I hope for better obedience in the future. You will tell me the extent of your abilities later.
What now?

[SharpKris]

we need to control someone who's important as a noble and weaker then a paladin... is there a court or something near? a nobles bart maybe?

[GreatWyrmGold]

I've got a bad feeling for...well, any kind of subterfuge as long as we're in this lady.

[RAM]

We are in the lady? Anyways, there is no point to having a priestess if we don't have a following. She is here to keep the minions in check and she should do that well. We need to set up our religion quickly so that she can work on that while we are off possessing folk. I still say that hoarders should have been largely overlooked and should have some potential to them. Alternatively, we could go with the rotting/poison thing and work on some sort of unhealth based religion. It shouldn't be too hard to help people to collect or poison and rot things...

Aren't we possessing the priestess?

Well, some sort of cult would be nice.

[gman8181]

Nope, we're floating peacefully alongside her without a host.  Possessing someone destroys their soul and priests/priestesses don't perform very well without souls.

Well, it depends on the priest...but you have a point.

[Kitten Snot]

There is a castle nearby, but one quick look from afar confirms that you aren't going to get in. It it patrolled quite well, not to mention the plethora of evil detecting dogs and commanders.
The nobles themselves are quite paranoid, due to possessing monsters existing in this world. Weekly checks are not uncommon, and a count refusing to get checked may be executed on the spot.
As you lack any other plans, you just search for anyone who might be interested in poisons and rotting.

You and your priestess go through the back allies, were having a blade handy is most certainly a necessity. The Staff of Rot keeps basic muggers at bay, though.
When you enter a particularly thin alleyway you are stopped by a tall, thin man. He is dressed in concealing leather and you cannot see his face.
He starts talking with a very fast and somewhat growling voice.
I know what the both of you are. I think you can help my organization with your little "blessings". We need some poisons. In return, you get paid, and you get some reputation. Deal?
He holds out his hand after he finishes his say.

Your priestess looks suspicious, and looks at you waiting for some kind of response.

Guess that makes my theory of the creator pulling strings valid. Let's hope it stays at making things easier.
