Sorry, I'm beginning to enter a vacation period and while I will try to check-in at least daily, I cannot promise that I will always be able to do so. From September 1, I should be back to normal.
Your day goes well, good weather. You reenter the more forested regions, making long distance visibility harder. As the sun is setting, you round a bend in the trail to see a gray-skinned humanoid with straggly white hair hunched over the corpse of a deer and eating it raw and bloody. The wind shifts and the aroma of death and decay washes over you. The creature is about 50 ft from the front of you party.
I would like perception checks from everyone.

The ranger freezes as the humanoid comes into view in the fading sunlight, but struggles to make out details due to the dense foliage and distracting stench.

Mathias, and anyone else who gets at least a 13 on perception checks will notice the creatures long, craggy claws and a few patches of decay on the creatures back, likely due to it being undead.
Arista, and anyone getting an 18 or higher, see spoiler.
the creature is south of you, the wind was coming out of the south at first, and only after the wind started coming out of the east did the stink overwhelm you. and its getting worse.

Brekka moves to ensure he is at the vanguard of the group, his shield strapped onto his arm and his other hand resting on the hilt of his sheathed sword.
"One unpleasant creature should not bar our path," he says dismissively.
"Careful!" Hisses Arista, "the smell comes from east and not from the creature. There are sure to be more lying in wait!"

"Uhg...I assume that stench is coming from the dead deer, but I suppose I could be wrong."
[[Arista Perception 19]]
"Are they eating it raw? What is this creature?"
