nerdytenor's The Missing Warlock

Karis searches the ground for clues, and discovers some tracks. Both seem to originate from the forest - one set heads towards the nearest building, and another set heads off to the north.

Joshua puts the ring in one of his pouches and then sweeps bits of dead and dying vegetation from his person.

" Karis. The ring doesn't seem to be magical but If you don't mind I'll hang onto it for the time being, I might think of something else later."

He noticed then that Karis was inspecting the ground so he had a look as well.

[sblock=perception] Perception +7: What kind of tracks? Human or something else??? [/sblock]
 

tracks

[sblock=Joshua]
Both sets of tracks appear human, and both sets of tracks look as though someone or something was being dragged along. The tracks to the nearest building appear to be a few days older than the tracks to the other buildings.

While the others search for clues, Moreen stands in her stirrups with a hand shading her eyes. She looks over the fields for farmhouses, searching for signs of activity.

You're pretty sure the buildings near the road are barns, but it's a little far away - maybe a ten minute walk (in armor :))

ooc = I take it that we've not got long before its dark?

The tracks, can Rellek confirm how many separate tracks there are leading into the building and leading away...

After this I will head toward the building in which the tracks lead planning to investigate within, unless anyone else thinks otherwise.

[Sblock]
On entering the building I'm taking standing precautions, swapping out bow for battle axes, going carefully, looking for clues visually {skill checks for perception, or anything else that might need to be drawn to the other members of the party} but mainly making sure the place is safe first before taking a more hands on approach for clues.

Just so everyone knows that I am not forgetting to post, I will aid where I can by looking around as everyone else does, but doing my best to not get in the way of ANYBODY else who wishes to search, since Todarr is not good at it (Perception and Insight both +2), but will follow everyone's lead, keeping an eye out for trouble as others search, and being ready for an ambush.

However, if something is magical (+6), religious (+6), common to urban environments (streetwise +6), or might have a historical connotation (+8), Todarr will offer whatever knowledge comes to his mind (though some of the others are more knowledgeable about many of these, he will do his best to aid or supplement, if it should occur)
 

misc

[sblock=OOC]
The tracks going towards the building closest to you are a little too old to say much about. The tracks going north have at least three sets of footprints - maybe more.

You've got a couple hours till it starts getting dark, I'd say.

Rellek scounts ahead

Rellek scouts ahead towards the first building, keeping his ears and eyes on high alert.

[sblock=Rellek]
You arrive at what turns out to be a barn. Pressing your ear to the door, you can hear nothing. There are two windows, but they have been boarded up - still, you manage to just peek through a narrow gap - you can't see much, but there's not much there. You can see what looks like a low piece of furniture in the center of the barn, and you can just make out stairs going up to a loft on the right side.

The barn doors are slightly ajar.

Let me know if you'd like to go in or not.

Joshua looks at the other three "Should we perhaps keep a little closer to Rellek? We don't want him falling prey to another ambush like those spider things."
