[QUOTE="Nyeshet, post: 5006725, member: 18363"] The goblins are half sunk into the stone floor, seemingly partially fused with the stone. Strange fungal growths - some several feet tall - have grown out of their bodies, but upon closer inspection it is realized that the bodies are slightly dessicated, and the 'fungus' is made entirely of animal flesh. Perhaps strange mouth like orifices suddenly open or close, as if gasping at the air, or perhaps strange tentacle like growths - like something from a reef or sea sponge or cucumber - move about. Maybe an eye like thing opens and gazes upon them before closing - leaving no seam to show that an eye was ever there. A strange ichor oozes from a few of the bodies - perhaps a type of ooze creature? Some parts of the wall seem different - different types of stone, perhaps veined with what appears to be metal - but upon touch the metal veins feel waxy, and suddenly looks more like long dead flesh. Maybe parts of the wall are glowing - in alien 'colors' that include darkness as a hue (decreasing ambient light if the torch is moved to near it, making it a little obvious. The bodies might also show a few changes: limbs now covered (in patches or in whole) with fur, scales, or clammy frog-like skin. Maybe a few of the eyes are no longer quite right - appearing entirely black or even insectile. Some of the goblins - despite having been left dead, show expressions or horror, shock, or agony well beyond what they might have shown when they died. Perhaps their souls remain in the room, partially destroyed, partially fused with the flesh or walls or growths. Looking overly close at the walls might show vague - but moving - impressions of the faces of some of the goblins - trapped in a moment of horror / agony but unable to pass on or even exit the wall, too warped in whatever mind might be left to them to be capable of communication, let alone informing what happened there. Any of this work for you? [/QUOTE]
