Listen bro, if you're just going to withold crucial information like this because we didn't declare that we're speciically looking for it, then I don't think this is gonna work. I always assume anything important to resolving an encounter is just outright stated from the get-go. Besides, if you wanted perception checks and the like, you should have hosted this in the tabletop roleplay section.

It wasn't quite withheld, rather I'm unsure of the extent of everyone's powers to sense certain details. But in the future I'll make encounters more straightforward.
