If no obvious answers present themselves, he will be much more thorough, riffling through clothing, looking at the skin as best as possible. As a fortunate concurrant benefit, he will relieve the guide of all his belongings, just to get a better look, of course."I will do my best to see if I can figure out what happened here. I have an idea, like I said, I've heard of possible things like this before, but without seeing it in action or seeing the mechanism itself, I cannot be certain. I'll take a few moments to inspect his body, meanwhile, can someone please help with our poor Maigreth? I am terrified about what has happened to her."[sblock=OOC]Rupert will take 20 on searching the body, so at +18, obviously 38 Search check.With the strange glowing orb in the ceiling, and the fact that the two things that have walked into the room and made contact with the floor (the guide's body, and the strange furry creature) have been burned or something similar, joined with the fact that our two flying companions (Titus and Reezo) have entered and exited unscathed, Rupert surmises that the trap is triggered by direct floor contact. But he doesn't know where the trigger is or where the attack is from. This is just his hunch.[/sblock]</blockquote>
