Using your advanced camouflage skills, you blend perfectly with the dense foliage as you stalk closer and closer to the source of the noise. You have cause to be thankful for your Grand Mastery when your Sixth Sense detects the outline of a man’s body, high in the boughs of a nearby tree. His limbs and torso are painted with forest colours that help keep him hidden, and you hazard a guess that he is a lookout for a jungle tribe.

You sense that he has failed to detect your presence. Rather than run the risk of being seen, you make a wide detour around his tree before continuing deeper into the jungle.
