The first draughr I encountered in my post-Hearth & Home play-through was a one star draughr in the Black Forest on the edge of a Swamp. I was still in the Black Forest; there was direct sunlight and I was not wet. I was also surprised, the draughr stepped from behind the fir tree I was standing by. I had bow and arrows equipped. And I died before I could say "Jack Robinson."

Geared up, ate up, wised up and killed that one star draughr to recover my corpse. In doing so, I had also to deal with a draughr elite who joined the fray.

That was many, many, in-game days ago. Since then I have destroyed all body piles within 150 meters of that spot. Scoured that same radius for stone towers in the Swamp, both square and round. Have not found one. Passed within a few meters of that spot dozens of times.

Still, except for near body piles, I encounter more draughr and draughr elite in that vicinity than anywhere else. And a lot of the time they come with one or two stars. I treat it as a spawn site.

I could be a living, breathing crazy man but I am still living and breathing.
