# **S N O W O W L** **`Case: Icebound Hunt`** `Weather:` **Blizzard** `Temp:` **Below Freezing** `Location:` **Snowy Forest** The forest is a maelstrom of white. Ice needles sting your skin, and the wind howls, erasing all paths. You were sent here for supplies, but now you're engulfed—a sudden dense cloud of snow steals your sight, leaving only the roar of the storm. Then, through the blur, a shape resolves: impossibly tall, a centaur of frost-pale hide and exposed scarlet muscle, hooves black as deep coal. A human skull sits lodged in its ribcage; a fleshy sack bulges beneath. Each step makes the frozen earth tremble. This is Voragath, the Snow Owl, a predator from an age before memory, and it has found you. There is only one option left. Run.
