RAVENLOFT: The One That Got Away OOC

I'm a bit overwhelmed these days, my apologies.

Do the ash streaks look like hand or footprints?

No.

it looks like the remains of a more or less randomly distributed ash fall. It's as if a big fire burned someplace and the wind scattered the ash over this area.

Only Benn sees no burning or burned out city blocks. His house roof is high, but it's no tower. Maybe if he climbed up something really high he could better survey the city.

That strange cloud lowering over the Ghost Streets zone across the river does not appear, at this distance, to rise from any large blaze. But it may be he cannot see smaller fires..,.

SO he takes ten, then.



It takes him a little while to capture a useful sample of falling/blowing ash. There isn't that much, after all, and he cannot touch it without 'melting' it.


He has the sample after a bit of additional effort.

Detect magic on the Ash.
Could also use arcana if required.

Yeah, give me a D20 Knowledge:Arcana roll to go with the spell.

Nothing much there.

Spellcraft may apply, too.

Well, that's above 15, but I doubt the ash is created by a spell...

He succeeded, but I have glossed over the details of how he found out and his trip. Asking people in the neighborhood then heading across teh river into the Ghost Streets and using logical deduction and careful observation...

You may fill in as you like, or not.
Super high INT.

It appears to be supernatural in origin, but doesn't seem to be a spell effect. Hard to classify without further study.
