Go over a room for evidence, look closer at what you find, look a body over, and work out what happened.

investigate

Go over the room you stand in. It takes a few seconds. Moving or a fight stops it.

Example: investigate

You start going over the room.
You finish going over the room. Two things stand out.
1. A pool of blood on the floor.
2. Drops of blood on the floor leading to the north exit.
Investigate <number> to look closer.

How much you find, and how much you learn from it, depends on your Forensics skill.

investigate <number>

Look closer at one numbered thing from your last sweep of this room.

investigate <body>

Look a body over where it lies. It takes about a minute.

autopsy

autopsy <body>

Open a body, a stage at a time. You need a forensics kit.

swab <number>

Rub a culture swab over one numbered stain from your last sweep. You keep the swab until a spectrometer runs it: see help swab.

reconstruct scene

Put what you found in this room in order and say what happened. Go over the room first. Typing reconstruct alone does the same.
