Fortus
Fortus examines Slade. He doesn't check for a pulse or breathing. He knows these things would be absent. Instead, he checks for things like oil pressure, and any presence of magical energies, or decay from the body. Warforged bodies are known to decay very rapidly, once they die.
Fortus concludes that Slade is still alive, but the fall inflicted so much damage that it left him completely inert and helpless.
