[Pathfinder] Friadoc's 'Down Camlin Way' campaign [IC]

Scott DeWar · Jul 13, 2012

Suddenly Ernesto jumps at the inexplicable jumping of the pebbles. He looks around trying to figure out what is happening.

Friadoc · Jul 14, 2012

It's not obvious, at first, but thanks to Golf's insistence and preternatural intelligence the group becomes aware of several things; first, a 20-foot radius area around the last set of tracks has been cleared of any other possible tracks and secondly there's a sour tang to the area that leads to a flaky offcasting similar to when a lizard sheds. The offcasting is small, and it is thirty or forty feet inland from the shore.

Assuming that you all allow Golf to follow the scent, you'll find the tracks again about sixty feet beyond the discarded sheddings.

"Something happened at the river," Talashia guesses. "We lost the tracks, maybe they were covered up after the fact." She shakes her head.

"It doesn't look good for him though. Hold on a moment."

She leans down and with her dagger cuts off a small piece of the shed skin and puts it in her pouch.

"Might find someone who can tell us what it is. Lets keep following the tracks and see what he's up now."

Tyyrh looks carefully at the spot where the tracks stop before picking up again later. He is curious whether the tracks stop near a place where the one making them could have climbed or leapt up to catch a tree branch and then traveled, climbed, or brachiated from tree to tree to reach the point where the tracks resume. "It may not matter, since the trail resumes, but our quarry may possibly have left some object, marking, or other spoor in the trees that yields a valuable clue to just what is going on here."

"Careful, if his tracks were intentionally removed, then it could another who wears his boots."

Ernest sniffs the air and wrinkles his nose, then leans down and picks up another piece of lizard skin.

[sblock=history question] has there been any conflict with reptilian races, such as troglodytes?[/sblock]

'If anyone can climb far wearing boots like the ones that left these tracks without some sort of aid, be it magical or otherwise, then he or she may be a better elf than I!"

At the same time that Ernest is thinking about various scaly races and conflicts of the region, his eyes turn southward and realization comes with his gaze falling upon the horizon of the Mushfens that lie to the south. The very same Mushfens that are populated with boggards, kobolds, lizardfolk, mobogo, and other amphibious, draconic, and reptilian beings.

...not to mention black dragons, as well.

However, the tracks, or sign of the tracks, seem to be leading inland, away from the shores and the direction of the Mushfens.

Ernesto de Palo Torres

Ernesto looks about, his [pledgerize] gaze falling upon the horizon of the Mushfens that lie to the south. The very same Mushfens that are populated with boggards, kobolds, lizardfolk, mobogo, and other amphibious, draconic, and reptilian beings.

...not to mention black dragons, as well. [/pledgerize]

"Well, if we are being lured to waterborne reptilians, the tracks lead the wrong way for a trap. They go inland. lizard folk and kobolds could still be about. blech! What is that sour smell?"

Gileysefed Lan, gnome oracle

Golf sneezes several times at mention of the smell, and Giley pats her on the neck sympathetically.

"If you think it's bad for you, you should try it with a dog nose," he says. Still, the canine seems willing to continue despite the clear discomfort she feels.

"Seems odd someone would wash out only some of the tracks," he says. "I wonder if whatever it was didn't happen after our boy trotted through? Not that that seems less odd, shedding to clear track. Goodness. You don't suppose something et him up and took his place, do you?"
