[QUOTE="MacConnell, post: 7438508, member: 6855223"] [b]Day 220: The Best Laid Plans...[/b] [gm]Party XP will be awarded for this idea.[/gm] [ooc]A reasonable amount of mundane items such as rope and cord are considered to be in the party's possession without needed record on the party inventory.[/ooc] Maka begins to convey to the crew that while his tribe hunts and traps to provide food for The Outpost, none of them can manipulate Way and none know of his newly found talent. He continues to explain that when the tribe wants to capture an entire herd they set up snare lines and have members of the tribe man the lines to spring them simultaneously from places of hiding. It does not always work, but the results are usually better than when trying to fire at them with arrows. Choosing the game trail that seems indicative of small sheep or goats, Maka demonstrates how to make snares and how everyone should be spaced. As the light of day begins to fade, everyone takes a position to wait to see if the quarry will arrive. About an hour after dark, when the crew members can barely see, the tiniest of movement of the grass and the soft sounds of small hooves on soil, Maka cries, "Now!" and everyone jerks on their cors to see if they have managed to snare the foot of a game animal.
