Area Description: The Snowfield

[SOTF_Help]

Area: The Snowfield

Description: Between the base of the mountain and the research station is a large and rough expanse of land permanently covered in snow. The snowfield has remained this way thanks to the slight increase of elevation and shading from the mountain itself providing cover for the snow that frequently falls upon the island. Crossing the snowfield can be treacherous as the thick snow layer and rough terrain makes walking difficult, with the ground appearing to be flatter than it actually is. Rolled ankles and falls are not uncommon and on rare occasions, a small avalanche from the slopes of the mountain will cause a fresh layer of snow to come crashing down into the valley.

Day 1:
In Welcome To Your Death, Dawn Montogomery built a snowman on the snowfield. The snowman consists of three balls and has no face or other features. Since Dawn quickly left the place and appeared next in the Research Station, it can be assumed that the snowman stands at the northwestern side of the field, close to the border.

As of the smell of dust and moonlight, a small campsite created by a student can be found very close to the snowfield, moderately hidden. The campsite is small, but was clearly made by someone experienced in camping.

There is a dead campfire that has been destroyed. Close to it lies the corpse of Corbin Azinger, the upper body pretty much burned beyond recognition. Tracks on the ground imply he fell into the fire and got dragged by his feet out of it. The remains of a burned daypack can be found near the campfire as well, although everything that wasn't made rendered useless by the fire got taken.

Finally, a hockey stick and a khopesh can found lying in the snow nearby. The khopesh has been subjected to the flames and lost its sharpness completely, making it less-than-supbar as a weapon.

Somewhere out in the wilderness, close to the edge of the woodland areas, the body of Andrew Lapson can be found caught in one of Shawn Bellamy's traps, having bled half to death before taking his potassium cyanide pill. His daypack is underneath his torso, missing only the first-aid kit, which is open and lying beside the pit his leg is trapped in, with the makings of a rudimentary dressing for his foot wound prepared.

As of The Stele of the Vultures, the khopesh and the lacrosse stick at the campsite are no longer present. The burnt body of Corbin Azinger has begun to rot heavily; the blood from his head has turned black, and the smell of blood and decay lingers heavily. A recent addition, however, is a pile of vomit and mucus near a tree.

As of I daydream until all the snow is gone, the corpse of Amos Flannigan can be seen in a forest adjacent to the snowfield, hanging from a noose tied around a tree branch.

Somewhere in the middle of the snowfield, the body of Aion Rhodes lies, covered with a green sherpa-lined flannel jacket. Underneath the jacket, a trail of blood can be seen originating from the side of his head.
