I agree with mystic we should stick together. Let's go right now and do more planning after we get more information. I think we should see about some kind of trap for this beast if it is possible. (possibly a pit and bait?) I know it is a wild idea but being an animal trainer I wonder if it is possible to train this creature at all for our benefit.
ok things are looking on the up now that we have mister smith with us. lets think of some specific questions to ask so that we get all the info possible. i have a couple already. how much gold can he get from the farmers? if we can stay in one of the barns at night to look at whats going on?
Zenobia looks at Mr. Smith and ask him the following questions:
What do you mean exactly by 'they were taken'? they were taken by somebody or killed?
What kind of marks were left on the animals?
Did anybody hear any strange sounds?
Did you all see footsteps of any kind?
We should ask if there were any remains blood, feathers, intestines? Can you tell us where they were taken from, we should look at the surronding area is there more than one animal, how big, what is it using to kill them, where is it dragging or carrying the animals to. Could we find its lair and catch it off guard when it is not coming out to feed. Are there any burn marks could this be a Dragon? these are all things we should try to find out. I also a agree on setting up a watch point to obsereve the creature in action to see it's moves and find its weakness, but we need to make sure were not down wind so we don't become possible meals.
We should also ask where a good spot to watch from is, we might have to split up a little if it has a wide feeding ground, we will have to figure out a way to signal each other from a distance if this is the case.
