Boy! Nimozaran! Come sit down here. You and Lief too."He then begins to construct a small magical sign on a slip of paper, exposing it to several arcane ingredients and infusing it with a tiny amount of residuum dust. He then burns the paper in a small burner and wafts the smoke at each of them, while intoning some strange phrases, probably in an ancient Eldar dialect, although even Starn isn't sure about the etymology.The check for Traveler's Camouflage is Nature, r(17) + 4 = 21. The ritual provides a +5 bonus to Stealth checks, and reduces an enemy's chance of tracking us by -5. Starn expends 10 coin for the components.LIEF puts a hand on Starn's shoulder. "Respectfully, I think I should be the one to go. If this sets off an ambush against all of you, given this terrain, Vorn will have more time to thin their ranks as they approach." Before anyone can suggest otherwise Lief scrapes the dried blood with his fingers and brings it to his nose, then his mouth, as he sets off on all fours into the heather to the west.There's no light here, other than the moon, so he goes by the smell of blood—the shifter's face low, practically in the soil—and the path of crushed heather.----------Intent: Track the bloody trail wherever it leads—to where the birds set flight, or past that, into the copse of trees, if any man-made tracks point there.Primary: Perception. r(9)+13 = 22 vs. Medium DC 17.
