EVENT: Mysterious Tracks
05-24-2017, 08:41 PM
The scent trail the wolves - and lynx! - were trailing had a strangely clean scent, clean with a faint tang of saltiness to it, but unlike many predators there was nothing musky about it. It brought to mind far-away places, and the scent of fur after a day romping on the beach.
Where Hailey had noticed the brush of fur in the trail, several guard hairs had been caught in the snow as the predator moved along. The hairs are extremely difficult to see against the snow, but a closer look might reveal more clues.
The trail led away from the group into the now-bare trees where the snow wasn't quite as deep in places where brush had stopped it from drifting further. Here, more distinct prints might be visible.
Feel free to have your character speculate about the identity of the animal, or to examine and interact with their surroundings in order to unveil more clues.
