Wow. I wondered why nobody had replied yet. It looks like the server ate my update from this morning.

This update has a bit larger image:

[OCC: That looks about right...onward!]

Brigitta checks behind her to make sure she can see the trailing pair and continues to move forward.

Haskins calls out "Hold-UP" and holds the torch higher. " Is that something there on floor" and proceeds cautiously about 10 feet to the south-east to see the dark image that may or may not be there on the floor.

Rawley eyes the surrounding darkness and the crumbling stone. His hand goes to his pistol when the sergeant calls a halt. He keeps pace with Haskins toward his objective.

 

[Wulf Ratbane]

Haskins cautiously walked forward.

It was an old campsite. There was a pile of bones from some cooked meal piled off to the right, a stack of firewood to his left, several clay jugs, and some unhealthy looking bedding.

There were some interesting runes etched around the firepit and filled with what looked an awful lot like dried blood.

Teddy will move south and east a bit, where he's standing on the bottom step about one square east of where he is now.

"Brigitta will want to look at this," he says to himself, a little impatiently. He was getting restless.

 

[Fenris]

Holding the torch aloft so that all can see what lies on the floor, "Ms. Nielson, something of interest to you no doubt"

How old does the campsite look? (Based on the meal, wood and dried blood)
Survival roll sent (or whatever else you may need)


Edit:Sorry, screwing up what ought to be read and red

Brigitta

Brigitta will close on Haskins and carefully examine the area, with an eye towards the "non-mundane". She will also have a look at the blood to see if she can determine how old it is.

"Mr. Haskins, can you tell how old this...campsite is?"

Fenris, I am not comfortable with Survival being used to gather this sort of information when it's not specifically paired with the Track feat. The Track feat takes Survival to another level just as the Surgery feat takes the Heal skill to another level.

And I don't want to undermine solomoncane's choice of the Track feat (assuming he shows up to post...)

I am comfortable with Haskins having seen enough campsites in his time to make a ballpark guess, "More than a week."

Brigitta will carefully examine the area, with an eye towards the "non-mundane". She will also have a look at the blood to see if she can determine how old it is.

Brigitta studied the dried blood and concurred with Haskins. Definitely more than a week. But she was far more interested in what the blood was used for than how old it was.

The runes were definitely non-mundane-- Brigitta had seen the like in pagan rituals before. Searching the firepit, she found a few burned mushrooms and some more bones.

Someone had a mystical experience here.
