In the Middle of...Somewhere

"Each one has its skills master Slim, and you are wise to see the lack of this kind of lore within your grasp. Although I'm not presicely skilled in outdoor abilities, I have quite experience on the field. That is, I know what need to be done, but I'm just unable to do it. Ironic I guess"Bonamius says, still looking avobe

Jan keeps his head down. He will help lift things as asked, and go where needed, but had little input in the activities. However, his pale skin would most likely burn quickly unless shade was found.
 

"I think I can see the trees from here, but the darkness doesn't help" says Bonamius sharpening his view.

OOC: UP! DM we need you ^^
 

Finding food was less difficult than might have been expected. While the beach, itself, was devoid of anything beyond wreckage and other junk that had washed ashore, among this junk a pair of crates with various foodstuffs were found. They were relatively dry, compared to how badly it could have been, and from the general looks of what was within, edible. Though it looked to be mostly dried meats, food was food.

As for shelter, the beach doesn't seem to be anything but out in the open. It looks like it might be possible to build a crude tent, of sorts, from pieces of the wreckage, but you can't see much else worth using on the beach. Checking towards the treeline farther inland reveals that the treecover seems to get very thick, very quickly. Whether anything is alive through there, you can't tell, but it looks to be too packed with underbrush and growth to provide any room for shelter without a lot of work.

Yarra:[sblock]While the others are searching for food, you hear a sound like movement beyond the dunes where the trees begin. As far as you could see, none of the other survivors went that way.[/sblock]
 

"Oh thank goodness for this food! Slim proclaims once the score is found. Grabbing a handful of dried nuts and fruit, he fills his mouth full and starts chomping away. "Ah 'ope 'oo dnn mond eef ah eet sum?" he asks a little belatedly.

After swallowing his fill, Slim smiles contentedly and lays his body down on top of the broken crate, smothering it lovingly. "Ahhhhh, my baby."
 

Victor

Upon seeing Slim gorging himself, Victor makes himself look and sound as imposing as possible. "What are you doing? We can't be eating all the food in one day! We don't know when our next meal is coming, we need to ration these. Somebody help me carry these off the beach."
 

Slim immediately stands up and blushes sheepishly, "Sorry, got a bit ahead of myself there. But on the plus side, listen!" He stops silent and holds his belly out with his arms splayed out to the side. "Nothing!" he grins and helps to carry the load back beyond the beach. "On the plus side, I probably will only need to eat in about a week or so."
 

"That is a good turn of things... and a bad one. We have food but the damn trees are too packed to set a camp there... We should do it here then." Bonamius states, then walks to a elevate plane place. "Here would be fine, who comes with me for some coconut leaves and the sort? We should set some tents or what ever... "
 

Victor

Victor smiles at the short man's apology. "Don't worry about it to much. I can't imagine you stomach would make that much noise, but if it does, hopefully it won't attract anything hungry for us!"

Yarra shakes his head. "Not quite true," he says as stops work. "Unless someone made it to the beach before us, then there is something moving around just over the dunes."

Dropping whatever he is carrying, Yarra unhooks his crossbow from his belt and loads it with a quarrel.

"Want to go look?" he asks of the rest as he straightens up.
