ooc:Ok, modern's fine. also helps explain why she might not have noticed it initially...That plus she had more problems with Sam's aura and likely did just block it out for the moment since it was just residual.

IC:Tara wished desperately that she had her magic so she could focus on him and make sure he wasn't hiding anything. when she first met him she of course checked his aura...Not the brightest aura she'd ever encountered, but certianly nothing that had caused her any real concern. There were those who were capable of hiding their aura, but she didn't *think* he was one of those. (Well, best he come along tomorrow, then.) She'd check him out more fully when/if she got her powers back. And if she didn't get her powers back, and he was evil...nothing she could do about it anyway.

"I'm...I'm sorry. It's just your arm. Where it ends. Necromancy was involved and you were directly responsible for it. It smells...stinks. I didn't notice earlier. It caught me off guard. Necromancy is a disgusting warping of magic and the natural circle of life. Earth-based witches such as myself are particularly sensitive to it. What happened?" The smell was fading. (Just a mental after image after all) Tara thought sadly.
