* Victim #1 Gerek, trapper, by the Toad’s Square, north side of the Beacon, six days ago. Actually skin from Gerek (whose body is in the Blue Moon warehouse) and body from Lenn, victim #2.
* Victim #2 Lenn, treasure-hunter, in a shed opposite to the Salons of Symbaroum, four days ago. Actually skin from Lenn and the body of Shanda, victim #3.
* Victim #3 Shanda, barmaid at the Rose Garden, by her home near the North Gate, two days ago. Actually skin from Shanda and the body of Teoman, victim #4.
* Victim #4 Teoman, chimney sweep, in a backyard henhouse near Master Vernam’s house, same day the tutor was killed. Actually skin from Teoman and the body of the elf Tara-Kel, victim #5, whose skin was found next to Vernam’s body. Depending on what conclusions the characters made at the murder scene they may be able to correct Ilantro on some points and there are also new deductions to be made:
* The skins next to the bodies belong to the previous victims.
* Consequently, the first Flayer victim Illantro examined was not the first victim; there is another skinned body to be found somewhere in town.
* The victim prior to Vernam was an elf.
