[QUOTE="Seeker, post: 2908377, member: 41724"] In summary form: where did Leatherneck and the other seven die (or, at least, were they found)? When? Did you keep the bodies around? (If so, where?) [GM question: to what extent to Warforged bodies rot? Speak with Dead has no time limit; instead, the corpse needs a mouth to speak at all, and anything less than "mostly intact" reduces the completeness or accuracy of the answers proportionally. This didn't work too well the last time Seeker investigated a murder, but he's willing to try again.] If we can't look at the bodies, could you describe their condition, how they died? What did they usually do? Did they know each other? Why do the humans call the killer Jack-in-Irons? Seeker will also ask Shadowblack why he claims humans are responsible for the deaths. After getting the information he wants, Seeker will go around the inn and Do Good Works. (Well, cast Repair Light.) If the Warforged needing repairs don't mind, and Melina has the spell slots, he'll alternate with her. Procedurally, I can write things up in a fully-characterized form after the answers come back. It'd probably go something like: "Indeed. I'll need to know quite a bit more to begin helping, though." Seeker and Reason completed several minutes of questioning before Melina finally had enough of fidgeting and headed for the line of damaged warforged in the corner. Ash asked a question unspoken, and Seeker answered a trifle more loudly than necessary, without looking over, "She has a small talent for the repair of our kind." The murders, they learned.... [summary]. [Dialogue for characterizing questions.] Hrm. Maybe do this back on the Wiki? [/QUOTE]
