[QUOTE="MoutonRustique, post: 6179150, member: 22362"] That is quite good ! If you wanted to make the connection clearer (not what it is, just that there is one), you could have the "crewman" attack with the tembo since it is, in fact, a shape-shifting imposter ! In the aftermath, you could have others in the crew mention how they thought he acted a little odd lately. You could even allow the sum of the recollections to be indicative enough to lead the PCs into an investigation that leads back to Demise (or whomever) - i.e. they though he was acting strange since xyz, he had lost a ton of cash the night before, but he was touting a brand-new pair of boots (the shapeshifter likes his magical boots and is (over?) confident enough in his abilities of deception to not leave them behind.) They go on location, the barman/card dealer/bouncer/other information person remembers the crewman throwing a major fit when his dice came up snake eyes. It was a strange thing though because some guy just looked him in the eye and the crewman calmed right down. The stranger claimed to be his friend when they left together, but they obviously weren't from the same kind of world (one was obviously working class, the other a good couple of steps up the economic ladder.) etc. Anyway, just riffing.
