One thing I cant understand is how you could smell a "putrid scent". Not all Mages have smells to them, and most should be undetectable. Perhaps you could include that fact in your bio? (can sense mages?) Also, unless you have specially honed sense of smell as above, there is no way you can smell a mage from Rorikstead.
I am going to assume it is the wolf for now, since in my previous post, I mentioned kids running from me. But am fine with anything really. But even the idea of smelling a wolf seems far fetched, for the distance isn't that close I think. But really, it's up to you
I must say, I particularly like certain characters, and I hope we can all get our character personalities straight so we get a cool RP
