When Heva asks which undead smell the worst, Father de' Fatale mentally contemplates the wide variety of undead but quickly comes to the conclusion that it is likely one or more Ghasts inside the house.

Calling out so the entire party can hear and confirming what Edwin revealed, Raziel says, "In fact, Ghasts are by far the most common stinky undead but there are many kinds. I would have to smell the odor myself to even try to identify the exact type."

Continuing, the Priest of Erastil adds, "Nonetheless, my experience and training inform me that all Ghasts and Ghouls paralyze their foes. However, Half Elves and Elves are immune to the paralysis caused by Ghouls, but not to the stronger Ghast paralysis."

"But, even if they are Ghouls, even then a band of Ghouls is often led by a such a Ghast. You will be able to tell most likely from the extent of the foul fumes once directly exposed, because Ghasts stink and nauseate everything around them, while Ghoul odor is merely unpleasant by contrast," the minister adds.

"I realize that's not a lot of specific information, but I it's the best that I can do. My advice is to expect and prepare the worst and, gods willing, hopefully it won't be that bad," the holy man says hopefully almost like he is saying a prayer. "Edwin should be able to identify them more specifically.

"Locked up tight as the skin of a gooseberry, I'm afraid," Ed replies, in his typical, languid, drawl, making only brief eye contact with the armored half-elf who peers out from his visored helm.

"THE FULL DEAD CAN GET TO STINKIN PRETTY BAD TOO, IF YA GIVE EM' LONG ENOUGH!" Ed hollers to Heva on the roof, before the mage makes a more scholarly assessment of the situation.

Seeing as there's not much for the ranger to do, he steps back from the house and begins having a look about the perimeter for tracks, alternate entrances and for any indication of what might've happened there.

Or who or what might be inside.

'BUGLE! Find me a trail boy!" he calls to his dog after a couple sharp whistles.

Glad that the group is finally starting to work together, Torren acquiesces and slides down the rope with ease. "Yeah, that sounds like a good idea." He says to the mage. "Send your familiar thing and lets see what it can see."

[Starhawk]

The familiar flies up to the roof and then in through the window. It comes out moments later and returns to Edwin reporting that the attic space is clear and that it couldn't find out more because the roof hatch is closed thus preventing it from doing so. It also reports that the attic space would be very dark had not a shutter been opened.

Torren thinks a bit. "Alright. How about this. I'll go up and enter the attic. Then I can open the hatch and you can try again with your familiar. If there's immediate danger, I can just bail or climb onto the roof."

Torren will reclimb the rope and enter the attic space, keeping low so he doesn't crack his dome on the low ceiling. IF theres no objection, he'll go ahead and open the hatch leading to the floor below.

As the shutters swingopen, Heva scampers up the rope to the roof. While the familiar explores the attic, Heva will walk the perimeter of the roof to observe the surrounding lands from the vantage point. She will be looking for the graveyard and any other useful features.

[Starhawk]

Heva immediately notes a hill, or more precisely a mound, a precise hemisphere, covered with peach blossom trees in full blossom. The trees seemingly sprout from a bed of flowers. It sits atop an otherwise shrub and low tree'd ridge, running, straight as an arrow, north to south, about a half mile from the village. The ridge does not run over the little hills it encounters, such that it looks like a wall connecting towers. What the land is like beyond the ridge is unknown since nothing of it peeks above the ridge. A way off in the distance is higher land, perhaps ten miles further off. Further still is a low mountain.

[This is in Notes. Billings saw it before the Temple fight and never mentioned it. If PCs don't mention things it goes into Notes.]

[Starhawk]

Torren opens the hatch and sees a set of wooden loops attached to the wall below him, constituting a ladder of sorts. The only light down there is what is coming through the open shutter across the attic space and down into the corridor below, which is to say not much at all. Without a light source, he cannot see either end of the corridor but he can see a double set of stairs some ten foot and ten feet off.

[Starhawk]

Raziel, Drew, Theo, Billings, Edwin and Cyl at ground level, look up.

What they see is a building with a sloped roof, albeit with a flat rim on the periphery, enough space for a single person to walk all the way around. The sloped roof is not steep, so the attic is likely a low headspace area. The roof surface is of the baked clay type, commonly found in places with a profound lack of slate.

"We might not be looking for graveyard." Heva yells down from the rooftop. " Four furlongs from the village there appears to be a barrow. We might want to check it out after we decide to do with this building.

So what's the plan?"

Heva waits on the rooftop for the outline of the plan. If the building contained ghouls and ghasts, she had no interest in close quarters fighting with a longbow. Enjoying the view was much enjoyable and significantly safer.

Not finding much of interest on his circuit of the building, Theodmer decided to head for the roof. Fortunately for the rather unathletic elf, the rope made the trip much easier, and he paused for a moment by the open window to get a whiff of the reported foul odor, referencing it against his knowledge before completing the trip to the roof.

The half-elf nodded at Ed's reply, though he had no idea what a "gooseberry" was. Clearly they weren't getting through this way. As the one they were calling Torren and Edwin, explored the attic, Cyl followed along with Ed and his hound. The group plan was continuing well enough, but Cyl liked to have contingencies in place. Not to mention the fact that he wasn't the biggest fan of heights, nor was climbing exactly a simple proposition in his armor and with his weapons.

His focus was on an alternative entrance to this building, either weak-looking boards, a cellar, or any other way to gain entrance from the first floor. The elfish man relied on his training and naturally keen senses to assist these new allies.

Cyl discovers the place is locked up tighter than a safe at ground level, after walking all the way round the building. On the east side, he too sees the mound to the East.

Edwin casts dancing lights (though this wasn't explicitly mentioned) after moving some fifty feet back from the front door to actually see the roof shutter. He knows he won't be able to move them in any meaningful way inside the building, beyond the attack, without maintaining line of sight and as soon as Torren inside the ability to maintain this will drop to zero quickly.

The Dancing Lights under direction from Torren move into the Attic increasing the illumination there. This takes a goodly portion of time given the 'No that's too far.. bring it back.. no too much to the left' instruction this requires, however it does, eventually, increase the illumination a little on the upper floor in the way Torren wants.

The thrush familiar near the hatch sees more than Torren does, on account of its low light

Theo, operating in some kind of mind fog for some reason, acquires no useful information.

 

On the roof: Theo, Heva, Torren.

On the Ground: Raziel, Cyl, Edwin, Drew, Billings.
