C'mon, let's just continue on and go to the place to get the chalices.
Those who do evil to others...the killers, rapists, psychos, sadists...you'll come to know me well. Frank Castle is dead. Call me....The Punisher.

I wish to point out that insane and evil are not mutually exclusive terms. I have schizophrenic relatives and one was an asshole before he got ill and an asshole when he was ill. My brother, on the other hand, is a nice guy who is potentially violent if he's not medicated. Ordering people to their deaths for nothing is never a good deed.
It's not that I'm unforgiving, it's that most of the people who wrong me are unrepentant assholes.

I understand all this. And the fact that I'm not budging from my position should tell you that there are facts in this situation you're not seeing, and I'm simply not going to tell you more than that. Yes, there is a mystery here, I fully grant you, but I'm not going to help you solve it OOC.

Ok, Rogue9, Grer sees the same thing Eddie & Volans see: footprints, made a relatively short time ago; less than a month, but you can't be more sure than that. Number of sets of footprints are indeterminate as well.

CynCat, your character sees a footprint.

Well holy shit, someone hit 20.

There are four sets of footprints, all about human-sized. You can't tell if they were elves or dwarves or humans or what specifically, but you do know there are four.

Also, in case this hasn't been made clear already to all of you (and if not, my apologies), but I really do encourage you to ask questions, and look for things, even if they might seem somewhat innocuous. IM or PM me and ask. If you're barking up the wrong tree, I'll tell you.

Usually. :wink:

And I might as well throw in a Survival check. I can't track things, but hey, who knows what I might glean?

Hmm, Survival, that's not a bad idea. Let's see what I can get by defaulting it.




This is probably gonna be horrible.

Everyone, roll a Listen check, DC 15/20/25. Having at least one high roll amongst you will be a healthy thing.
