"Heh, uh, sure- I can try. But it's not really a specialty. My areas of expertise are 'myself', 'using specific magic', and 'as various humans'." Yelis cracked his knuckles. Or rather, he made motions as if to crack his knuckles, but nothing happened. "I'll give it a shot, though. Some of it's bound to carry over, right?"
"is it possible for us to check the crime scenes ourselves before we do anything, the fact that we found something you missed with the bodies-the sign of necromancy, it's possible that you missed something there as well...no offence to you or your department here."

Forgive me for disagreeing, but we are all here to handle the situations. I am a trained professional like most of you. I can definitely handle myself in a fight, if I have to." Nameirtae said.
He smiled. No offense taken. Mistakes happen to the best of us. One time, during an operation, a cleric healed a shapeshifter monster disguising himself as a victim. Can you imagine how embarassing that might be? Glad I wasn't him.
Yea imagine that, heheh Ammon scratchs the back of his head blushing slightly
Giving Ammon a little sideways glance, Geralt says "...so...can we?"
Do me, outside my armor i can move pretty fast if i get into trouble i can run and lead whoever it is to you guys. Beside i'm a new face around here, the killer might recognize someone from around here.
"All right then. But do we actually have anything to work with? I don't exactly carry around a kit for this sort of thing," Yelis said.
While smirking slightly, Officers of police sometimes go undercover. Something to use here for disguise? I ehh, do not make good use of disguises, surprising it may be. Also, I do not want to try to be mugged. Twice is enough already. She turn to Nameirtae.
Geralt has good idea. Scene of crimes my give useful direction. Ve also likely need supplies anyvay.
"I think I can help out a little too." Ramiel says once he's sure Ammon is going to be the one disguised. He places a hand on Ammon's arm and speaks a strange word. Moments later a glyph slides from Ramiel's skin on to Ammon's. "A psionic tattoo for healing you if you get hurt. Just say brigele to activate it. It's not much, but it can help out."
Nameirtae looks over the group. "You are good people, you know." He said. "Alright, we'll go with your plan. Where do we want to start with the ruse?"
Thanks, let me remove my armor and we can get started with he disguise Ammon begins removing sections of the metal plates, his tail assisting, Can Genie kin have tails? Cause this might actually be a problem
"Well, I haven't heard it bring used for a tail, exactly, but I'm pretty sure sticking it down a pant leg could work."
Yelis looked over to Devic, thinking for a moment. "Not to presume that your experience with chemistry means you can whip up anything on the spot, but would you be able to manage a dye that would work on his skin? I can magic it off later if we need to."

Devic's eyes begin to move back and forth as she ponders Yelis' question Hmm. Vell, I not work with dying agents or makeup often. Simple principle though. I see if I can help.
She walks out of the room momentarily, returning moments later holding a small unmarked white tube.
And ve're back. She hands the tube either to Skjor or Yelis, whoever is closer.
Should allow our knightly comrade to appear more as ifrit. Ehh, do not eat. Do not get in eyes.

"Hold still, this will only be mildly uncomfortable and embarrassing for you," Skjor said with a grin as he took the tube from Devic. After Ammon removed the heavy plate he wore as armor, Skjor immediately took some of the makeup and started rubbing it into Ammon's skin, watching as it took on a deeper red tone. Skjor made several random sounds as his work progressed, stopping once to look up at Ammon's face as he got to his lower regions. "I guess what they say about tieflings with long tails is true, huh?" With that, he continued on, finally getting the rest of the outsider's body finished.

Devic makes a face of... displeasure? Surprise? It may not be clear, but she makes her way out of sight of the two outsiders either way.
We, ehh, should go investigate now. Right now.

Geralt quickly follows Devic calling out, eyes wide "don't leave me here with them!"
I'm fine with it, growing up among knights, gets rid of embarrassment like this pretty quickly Ammon stays calm and collected. his tail moving back and forth slowly.
Yea, one of the few gifts dad left me I guess. I'm just happy i'm not a mass of tentacles or somethings. Letting Skjor work, the outsider much smaller outside of the mass of plates and metal. His body coated in scars and various old injuries,.
The disguise is looking good. Said Nameirtae. Where should we take this, next?
Ehh, somevhere else! Closest crime scene, where? We go there first. Devic call back from the hallway.
I wonder if this will really work? I mean do i really look like an ifrit? Don't they have like flaming hair and stuff Ammon says aloud, redressing in his simple white clothing when the disguise is finished
Yelis leaned over, sticking his hand in Ammon's hair. A quick gesture and incantation, and it lit up with a bright light. "That should help a little, I think."
Very well, I will lead you all to the crime scene. He said. If you will be willing to come with me back into the car, I will be happy to answer any more questions.
Driving, you pass a cemetary. About a city block later, you arrive at a boarded up apartment.
Here we are. This place took the most damage out of any of the scenes.
Devic will take 20 on perception in the room if possible, total 27.
Inspecting all over the area closely, crawling in any small space she can get to, Devic will look over the area without touching anything, magnifying glass and all.
"Sir, has anyone considered searching the cemetery? It's just something I thought of after we passed it. How close are the other crime scenes to it?"
Could be something to consider. Nameirtae said. Murders took place anywhere from here to five miles out.
No. Nothing. Net. Nichego. She stops to pick out the oddity.
Ah. What do you think of this? She says crawling out of the space she wedged herself into, presenting the knife to the group.
It looks like someone did not ehh, be prey so easy.
"could we possibly get that tested?" Geralt asks, sniffing distastefully at the gore covered knife.
Ehh, could. But would take ze weeks for shipping and handling I mentioned. Maybe done locally.
Devic says, looking over the knife carefully.
"Let's hand it over to the local authorities then. I want to catch whatever or whoever is behind this and get back home."
You detect a very faint and fading still aura of necromancy.
Nameirtae inspects the knife. This doesn't look even remotely human. He said. Or elven, dwarven... oread flesh? No, but the resident was a Sylph.
Devic hands over the knife, starting to go through her phone.
Ehh, could just be decayed. Or, resident had guest.
Yelis looked the flesh over, shrugging. "Is there anybody you know who'd be able to identify the flesh? It seems like an important piece of the picture."
Undead? We haven't had a mummy attack in years. Nameirtae said. He leans closer to the flesh. It smells... funny. He said. Could this be undead flesh?
let me see, one of the few things i was taught about was undead
It's undead, faint traces of necromancy, the flesh is stressed due to movement all the signs are their Ammons says speaking oddly intelligently
"I hate it when I'm right about graveyards." Ramiel mutters as he puts his bandana on. "Let's end this."
Never like graveyards. Should be simple. Is yard for dead to stay. Cannot be left to rest it seems. At least not adding new unscheduled res-. We leave, yes? Devic leaves that train of thought behind mid-sentence like the trainwreck it would be.
Alright, let's go. Should I follow you?" He said, walking towards to the car. Will you need me to call in for backup?
Da. In likeliest of likelihood if ve find what ve vhant.
Why can't people just let the dead rest, honestly. What should i do as is i doubt i'll be of much help
You'll be plenty of help. Nameirtae said, getting into the drivers' seat. You've got a warrior's physique and a blade almost as big as I am. If that's not helpful, I don't know what is. He put the radio to his mouth. We might have a lead on my case. Stand by for backup.
