Due to the difficulty of leading you, with your own scent interfering with the trail, the target's scent must be particularly strong. This can be accomplished by spraying the target with skunk's stench, causing them to get hit by a stink trap, or anything else which will make them smell powerfully enough. For one Lusternian day after this occurs, even if the target washes themselves, they will still smell strong enough to be tracked. Also, the target must be in the same local area and corporeal. | |||
