Message: <blockquote data-quote="reddist" data-source="post: 2249652" data-attributes="member: 5212">The thug is dying...  Kragor's initial headbutt broke his jaw and caused him to bite off most of his tongue, and Kragor's next devestating blow to the man's chest flailed his sternum.  His breathing is labored and each inhalation causes grimaces of pain to flash across his face.  The burn wounds are extensive but not horrible, mostly first and second degree... Kragor and Marisa were able to remove most of the burning jelly before the intense heat burnt the man to a crisp.  Marisa is able to stabliize him, but he needs healing attention rather desparately if he is to remain alive.Jaleph mutters an incantation, offering words of comfort and succor to the burned thug.  The thug moans and thrashes as you approach him, oblivious to your efforts to befriend him.Jaleph: [sblock] Your spell failed to get through the pain the man is in and the fear he has for you and your party... [/sblock]Checking out the other corpses you find two more thin-walled ceramic pots in their packs, made in the same manner as the fragments you find in the satchel where the fire started.  These clay flasks are thin but wide, with a rectangular shape and a tightly corked lid covered over in a thick layer of wax.  They slosh a bit when you shake them.  You can still smell the acrid ethers and other volatile chemicals coming from the cloths and cloaks you pulled off the burning bodies.  Along with the pots, each bag contains some kind of sticky, putty-like material, as well as a tin of black waterproof greasepaint.Otherwise, these men were carrying an assortment of short-bladed weapons and throwing knives, blue-lighted arcane torches, and two of them had sets of climbing claws.  In a pocket of the cloak you pulled off the spellcaster you find a yellowed scrap of parchment, torn from the corner of a larger sheet.  With a very sloppy hand, someone wrote the following note:AG|FD*|SRM*|  x  |LBB*|PPThe *'s are tickmarks, in the shape of a candle or flame.</blockquote>
