Try to work out how to handle Fascinate with the extra abilities (charm person and suggestion)

Do other CK apply the

Code: Select all

While fascinated, the target is treated as if prone and also suffers a -4 penalty to all saving throws and a -5 to armor class. 
Do the Charm and Suggestion saves?

Fascinate so little used I have not had to handle this yet. I have situation (Running Gary's Necropolis) where the Bard has figured out the most likely summoner of the Demoncroc. So the plan is to happen by the the hut and strike up a conversation, ask if they would give an opinion this song they will play tonight at the tavern.. Fascinate -> Charm Person -> Suggestion. "Tell me about your hopes and dreams, where do you see yourself 1 year from now."

The player assumes that the real demon summoner will succeed vs Fascinate and force an encounter, but the others will fail and those that are evil will spill there plans for world conquest, ultimate power and other nefarious schemes. I'm ready to run it but I wondering how to handle the rolls.
