@Nick:First thing you realize when you enter the room is that the driver who drove you here wasn`t joking. The place is complete mess and zou cannot remember when you have seen worse. The stench you ascribed to the smoke in the pub is much worse here, and you are glad you took that shot before you entered the poker lounge. From what you see at the first glance the place was used as a game room. Poker table lies shattered all around, as if something exploded on it. body that lies closest to it is a middle aged man with clean cut jugullar. He bled out quite quickly, well the body also shows signs of magic user and by some symptoms show that he possibly left the body before it died. From what you know from medical point of view, this bears no advantage to the mage, well you are not exactly sure about anything connected to magic.
Another body with quite obvious wounds that lead to death is young man. From the wheelchair that lies right next to him he was paraplegic. High caliber bullets entered the chest and caused massive damage inside, tearing two brutal holes in the back as they left the body. No ymstery to solve left.
With this the nice and clean work is over. Another two bodies are in extremely bad shape. quick search reveals: Multiple cuts, blunt weapon wounds, broken bones and stabbings are the start. If this was the fight of two regular men, this would be all. But sides involved were one troll trained by years of police service. In oposite corner, there was heavily augmented man. From what you see He went completely crazy. You suppose it was something like cyberpsychosis in action, cyborg went completely out of control.Some blades were broken during the combat, same as a few cyberware parts. Well from what you can see, even trolls raw power, training and other natural advantages were not enought to avoid lethat wounds. At the end of the fight, it was the cyborg standing victorious. Would be if Han didn`t introduced his slug loaded automatic shotgun. The result is complete destruction of upper torso and head. You would have to use bag if you want all parts together.
@Sylvia: Due to violent nature of recent events you can clearly see that mana on the place is disturbed. This background somehow limits the visibility of details, but you are able to pierce it. The observation also reveals that single and short presence of the spirit left the place tainted. Poisoned somehow.Clearly visible signature of forcefull Griffins spell mixes with highly complex patterns of the spiritual powers inherrited to the toxic being. You are able to recognize most important signs and shapings, any you are sure that if you see the aura or signature again you will recognize it. There is more, weel you would have to consult the results of your observation with some specialist, since yof your knowledge of spirits and toxic magic is sporadic. Still, you are able to recognize that spirits present wasn`t by accident, as it was guided to this place somehow. It also seems that Griffin, before he died, tried to pursuit the spirit to its domain. You are not able to follow these traces, well someone else possibli can.
@Brian: You are qite used to late night alarms, ambushes and training. When you are working out in the field. You don`t expect the same when you are back home and with your family. But old habbits die slow and when your PAN signalized incomming call, you, after a little hesitation, he answered. You didnt recognizte the commcode, well you recognize the face of the calling man quite quickly. Local figure...landlord and estate owner, man who seems to have some real influence here in Auburn.
