Knights of the Old Republic: The Last of the Sith(Master Kanas' Group)

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

Approaching the smoke took more time than had been expected, as the trees and plants had grown increasingly thick in the areas around them. The closer they got to the source of the smoke, the more a smell started to grow in the air. It was as thick the plantlife, and disturbingly obvious to what it was once they got closer.

In a large, mostly circular burned out clearing within, was a large pile that was the source of both the smoke and the smell. Bodies. At least fifteen of them, but likely many more. They were burnt and charred to a state where it was impossible to identify anything beyond overall shape.

Barrick gags at the sight of all the dead, and covers his face with the crook of his arm. He quickly looks around to make certain there are no more Sith droids lying in wait, and then, assuming the coast is clear, he wades out among the burnt remains and attempts to find something - anything - that might give some clue as to what happened.

Is there other wreckage here, as of buildings, or just the bodies?

The burnt corpses disgusted Bud'd and caused her to gag. She had never before seen such a disgusting sight. Slipping a breather over her features, she did her best to remain in control and not allow grief take her. She followed Barrick into the area, not daring to touch anything with her hands and instead using the tribesman's staff to push objects/debris out of the way in her search.

After moving only a few of the corpses, a slight metallic sheen could be seen buried under a large amount of them. The shape of it is impossible to determine, though, as it is closer to the center of the pile and most of the burnt bodies are piled on top and around it.

Aerek didn't react any better than the others to the scene of destruction that they were surveying. It's better not to get used things like this. He kept a careful watch while the others explored the scene.

OOC: Crashed starship, or something else entirely?

((Aerek:

Spoiler

It looks like too small of an area to be an entire ship, though a larger sized escape pod could fit the size cloesly.

Though not immune to the scene Skyka’s determined mind pushed past her natural reflects to gag as it tried to process the scene, the chances where also good that the people where dead long before they we consumed by the fire and that knowledge helped her deal with the screen, There is little doubt its a mass grave… or an accident that started the fire and killed all of the people. The near improbability of the last thought made her frown.

Treading lightly, not wanting to disrupt the bodies anymore than necessary, Skyka bends down looking for something not consumed by the intense heat and fire that could identify the bodies.

OOC: I highly doubt it but do Sith War Droids gather up their victims and/or start fires to consume the bodies?

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

((Skyka: Nope, you've never heard of the War Droids building body piles and burning them.))

With more searching through the pile, a few scraps of clothing and another of the large polearms were found, though the former was a blackened mess and the latter scorched and cracked in many places. It wasn't hard to find more of the metal, though, as on all sides it seemed like(at the bottom of the pile at least), the bodies were simply stacked to cover the source of the metal.

Uncertain as to rather or not malice played a part Skyka closed her clear blue eyes and concentrated upon the world around her and its connection with the all knowing force.

OOC: See Force +5, sense feat if need be.

There is a lingering feeling of anger that seems to hang in the air, though it is very weak and likely won't be around much longer.
