[h3]Town group[/h3]

Markus and those riding alongside have arrived in town, with everyone given tasks that will allow some dividing up. While Marrec will stick with the Ulfric, others can shop, mingle, whatever. Since winter arrived in Odessa, new faces have appeared, showing watchful eyes as they witness the arrival of the group from the mountains. 

[h3]Sacred Grounds group[/h3]

Those on sacred grounds duty should have reached the Lupanar as a group. Not far off, a woman with red hair lurks, eyeing the Lupa with a hungry gaze: to remove the Lupa would weaken the Ulfric, and this is a desirable outcome. She is not easily noticed, as she wears the scent of a plant that efficiently obscures her own scent, and she is a worthy hunter – she is the woman who killed Ted and Susanna. (BlackCat's character - NPC). 


[h3]Patrol group[/h3]

Some of those on patrol will find themselves faced with a large, female werewolf who is acting both aggressive and confused, flinching from unknown pains and frothing at the mouth. Her features slip and slide as if she can't maintain her lupus form, sores apparent scattered over her body. When she spots the other werewolves, a deep rage casts a red haze over her eyes and she springs forward, showing impressive speed and size as she seeks to kill those who offend her with their sharp scents, loud noises, and hot, throbbing pulses.
