OOC,That is the room we've been searching.

OOC,Sorry Mr H, the room you are currently searching, with the suicide and sketches in it, is room 14. Room 16 is aft of it and has even more horror in store (Muahahahaha I say twirling my waxed moustache). I'll update the map after these few posts.

OOC,I'm sorry, I thought from the description that it was room 16.

All investigators other than Henry,Please make a Sanity roll for 0/1D4 points due to the grisly sight, smell and visceral horror before you.

All investigators,Please make a CON test or leave the room immediately and spend a round vomiting. Henry gets a bonus die due to his profession. Can we all make a medicine or biology roll as you choose.

Those with strong SAN and stomachs,Searching the corpse reveals that it is Donald Winthrop. Concealed in the base of a wardrobe is a small case with the initials D.W. embossed on the lid. Inside is a syringe and some morphine. Also in the case is a photo of an attractive young woman wrapped in a note saying; [color=#FF0000]“We were like the mayflies of spring, my sweet. We danced but briefly but, my, how we soared. Now I must do my duty.”[/color] It is signed, [color=#FF0000]“Emily”[/color]. The notepaper is titled [color=#FF0000]“Gordon Dodd”[/color] as if it were the draft of a poem. The word [color=#FF0000]“bastard”[/color] is written beneath – 137 times.

There is nothing of interest amongst his belongings.

OOC,Sanity roll (current level 71) for observing the body: [dice]0[/dice] Sanity loss for seeing the body: [dice]3[/dice] CON roll (50% stat) for observing the body: [dice]1[/dice] Medicine roll (1% base skill) about the body: [dice]2[/dice]

Henry,Yeah, that looks about right to me. You just about manage to keep your nerve and as an aside I'll give you a bonus (partly your medical roll) that the amount of blood present is way too much for the exsanguination of one body. This might allow you to have the idea that as the body on the bed was 'dosed up' with morphine, this might have caused the creature responsible to vomit it's feeding up to this point over the room.

Searching the luggage reveals,Two dozen love letters addressed to Violet Gibbs-Woolf declaring Neville’s love in the most painful purple prose. None of them have been posted.

Succeeding a History roll,reveals the bookmark to be a strip of 15th century parchment.

A successful search of the cabin reveals,the cabin belongs to Victor Fairchild and Walter Humphries from their personal effects. The less expensive suitcase, which belongs to Walter Humphries, contains a loose-leaf folder. It is tied with what appears to be a strip of snakeskin and is bursting with jottings, notes, and diagrams, written in an unfamiliar language in what appears to be a frenzied hand.

A successful second History roll,identifies the language as futhorc.
