"A stipple of sick cracks emitted from his neck." According to Google, "stipple" means to "(in drawing, painting, and engraving) mark (a surface) with numerous small dots or specks", or "produce a decorative effect on (paint or other material) by roughening its surface when it is wet." So either Google is wrong, or you used the wrong vocab word. Great story, but that threw me off.
