The former zombie's full plate armor is warded with some sort of protective magic, while the skull-shaped mace at its belt is also enchanted---a quick touch by Marot causes him to flinch a moment, suggesting something ill at work. Interestingly enough, the blood drop medallion at its through, a common Volite sign, is also magical, an enchantment of some sort.Ireena makes the sign of the 'V' as she approaches the altar, and looks curiously at the dead body a moment. "The marking of its armors... almost akin to the signs of the Sacred Blood. But you say this is a recent visitor to our lands?"[sblock=Tessa]Kn: Religion and History]Her question is one of interest. If what you have heard is true, then there is little way the Blood of Vol symbols and similar religion beliefs that the Barovians hold could have come from the mainstream Volite faith---Barovian has been isolated for millennia. The only thing that makes sense is that either the original Barovian inhabitants or their later Karrn sponsored rulers brought a Proto-Volite belief here that melded with some Sovereign-based beliefs based with the Ravens.[/sblock]</blockquote>
