Houwlou Groulenas

[sblock=OOC Mowgli]There's really no such thing as a jackalrat, is there? If there is, then I'll need to edit this post, post-haste. :D[/sblock]

Houwlou looks at Harnrey the way you look at a precocious but very uneducated child when he tries to discuss things beyond his limited experience, and says, "Harnrey, Harnrey, Harnrey.....there's no such bloody thing as a jackalrat. The villain just made that nonsense up to deflect attention from himself."

[sblock=Leif]Well, Houwlou's never heard of any such thing, anyway - nor has anyone else in your party, nor apparently have Almah or Garavel.

On the other hand, those tracks he found look a lot like the one's Dashki drew, and if it was a dog it was walking on two feet.[/sblock]
 

Harnrey returns the "look" he was given and explains, "then perhaps we need to ask the others in the camp to see if they have heard of jackle rats or can verify the claim that the drawing is truely of said jacklrats. Or at least they can say waht the drawing is the foot print of."

*sigh*

OOC: since Houwlou has gnolls as a favored enemy, would it be out of line for me to think that he can recognize their tracks? Does this track in question appear to have been made by a gnoll?

"You go ahead and ask all you want, Harnrey. But if I was so ignorant as to believe in 'jackalrats,' then I would surely want to keep that fact hidden from as many people as I possibly could. But, hey, man, knock yourself out. Just make sure that I'm not around when you do so, ok And, while you're at it, why don't you ask if anyone has seen the man in the moon dancing naked?"

[sblock=Leif]This footprint was most definitely not made by a Gnoll. Houwlou would say that it was made by a Pekingese (dog) except that it was plainly walking on two legs. Pugwampis (as described by Dashki) are only about a foot to a foot and a half tall. They worship Gnolls but are not Gnolls.[/sblock]

"Well, I'll be d*****! I think that there's something to this pugwampi story after all! Look! Midget Gnolls," Houwlou says pointing at the tracks. I just can't figure out when this Dashki is lying or telling the truth. My apologies, Harnrey, guess I'm the only fool here."

Keeland

Keeland suggests a comprimise. "Let's follow the tracks as best we can to get a sense of which way the pugwumpies went while the light is good. We don't have to go far from the camp to get a sense of where they went. That should make the late night tracking a little easier."

OOC: Also has low light vision and light cantrips--no limit on castings. Moved from wrong thread.
 

Houwlou Groulenas

"Good plan. I'll study these tracks more so that I should be able to follow the trail better." Houwlou will then proceed to do just that.
