[QUOTE="Deuce Traveler, post: 5520291, member: 34958"] Upon closer examination the body seemed to be that of a male human who had worn simple travelling clothes. Yoshiki had the sharpest eye in the dwindling light from the falling sun, pointing out wounds from the side of the corpse and that the ribcage was exposed and shattered. Elros nodded, noting that the wounds had come from some kind of animal which had eaten through flesh, sinew, and bones. As the party searched further a snapping of twigs was heard to the northwest of the hill, but the crashing sound ceased and after a moment they continued the investigation. Yoshiki commented that other parts of the body along the arms and face had been gnawed to the bone. Although those wounds were exposed and the left arm, both legs, and the neck had been bent and broken into unnatural angles, there seemed to be little blood on the altar itself. Elros agreed again, and theorized that the man may have been killed a few days ago, but brought to the altar only recently. Mortar confirmed his suspicions, noting that the natural trail of broken plants created from the body being dragged had wet sap along the crushed vegetation, meaning that the corpse was likely brought only hours before. A half-full backpack miraculously survived with only small rips and holes, and was still on the dead man's shoulders. The noise to the northwest was heard once more, but closer and a shadow of movement could be barely seen circling the hill among deep bushes. A similar noise followed by the heavy breathing of a large pig or boar pierced the air to the south of the hill, though the party members had bunched on the opposite side. The adventurers suddenly felt as if they were being approached on both sides for tactical advantage, a sign of intelligence simple animals should not possess. OOC: Whatever is coming your way will be up the hill in two rounds. It's hard to get a shot off at the creatures due to the vegetation and light due to the position of the setting sun. DM now requesting combat actions. [/QUOTE]
