Some of these bones might go with this ribcage. Some might be failures.

Game Instructions: The more thigh bones you have, the simpler it will be to find some that match the torso and therefore the easier the Watchful challenge.

Success here will produce a successful and completely plausible mammal skeleton, but will cost all the thigh bones you have. Failure will identify half your thigh bones as deer thighs instead.

Unlocked with 10 x Unidentified Thigh Bone, 1 x Sabre-toothed Skull, 1 x Jet Black Stinger, 1 x Thorned Ribcage

Locked with Skeleton in Progress

Success

The skull and the tail

[…] The legs[…] so many possibilities[…] find which have the air of menace and the scent of rose.

"Part dog, part infernal rose-bush," says F. F. Gebrandt[…] at times one can see a theoretical overlap with the more familiar field of toxicology."

Description summary:
With Gebrandt's help, you go through the unidentified leg bones and cobble together a fragrant monstrosity.
