I am very much in favor of this idea, having creatures hide in containers would be a benefit.
On a side note, are living bodies considered containers?

[spoiler]
This?

[spoiler]

Actually, yes. That is exactly what I was lampshading.

I do not think that word means what you think it means...

You're probably right... I just never get a chance to use that...

This should help. Or not...

[SPEC_HEAT] controls how fast it changes temperature, I thought. You might be looking for [HOMEOTHERM] (the heat/lack thereof that it gives off)

Nope, specific heat was what I was looking for. It means metal wicks heat away from people quickly. HOMEOTHERM is only for creatures, anyway.

Obviously, Donuts won't abuse his position.

Not if he doesn't want me to order him to hammer himself. And I will!
Maybe I should...

GreatWyrmHematite has mandated the appointment of certain nobles.

GreatWyrmHematite as Head Deathroom Designer (0/0)
Anyone as Head Deathroom Builder (0/0)

10ebbor10:
You have one adze, which requires only one person. Likewise, you have one pick, which five people will probably just fight over. Once you get stone or something, you can make more.
Making a bow requires two units of wood, easily gatherable within a day, and one of grasses or reeds for the string (even more so).
Kids might help, but it's hard to get them to work.
Finally, while everyone can get their own water they won't do as well as if one person got water for all of them.

Slowpoke: You have five men, and children probably won't work. You can make suggestions, but at least half of them will just be children. There's a reason kids are cheap...Thankfully, they eat half as much.
Oh, and having half of your adult population hunt at a -1, with neither weapons nor armor? Do you want a tribe of children?

anailater: You have only one adze, and don't expect a baby for a while. And the kids should learn farming about when you can set it up, which won't be for a while.

TopHat: One adze, kids do pretty much just muck about.


Seriously, why do people try to get multiple people to cut trees with one adze? An adze cannot divide into a swarm of littler adzes!

It,s fine. Post your turns now, if you're ready.

You can already make spears and such. Worry about learning more than average Polynesians when you have a village up and running.

Finally, I'll be able to keep track of your villagers, but you can too. If we both do it, there's a lower chance of a screwup.

loot all my things, use bite, does TFB flinch? if so use hydro pump

You grab your old stuff. [5v1] Yup, TFB flinches as you deal [16*5] 80 damage to him. [6-1] Hydro Pump is just as successful, dealing [20*5] 100 damage! Not bad for one turn. Or one guy, actually.

THREATEN TO EAT THE SHOPKEEPER UNLESS HE GO FETCH ME A DOZEN OF PHOENIX DOWNS

[5v1] The shopkeeper runs. You smell a distinct fecal smell as the shopkeeper smashes into a wall. Oops.

NOOOOO! Try once more to evolve, before trying to take my Sword out of the boss and STABBING HIM REPEATEDLY WITH IT.

[5] You evolve into a Demoknight. [2v4] You fail to retrieve your sword.

THROW MONEY AT SHOPKEEPER

CAST SUMMON SUMMONER II

[1] The money hits you on the head, dealing 0.01 damage each, or 16 total. Ouch. [1] You summon a goblin-summoning orc. He promptly smacks you over the head [6] for [24*5] 120 damage and breaks his hand.

BOSS TURN:
The or goblin-summoner pleads to be allowed into TFB's service.
The goblins attack, two to a PC. [3,6;5,1-1] While Unholy_Pariah avoids the first attack, he dodges into the second, taking [23*2*2] 92 damage and breaking the goblin's sword. [5,1;1] Greenstarfanatic is as lucky; while one goblin deals [12] damage to itself, the other deals [17*2*1.5] 51 damage. [6,2;6] One goblin misses Doomblade, but the other [23*2] rather overkills him and gets hit on the head with Doomblade's, for [6*3] 18 damage. [4,1;2] Objective gets hit by the goblin who held onto his sword and takes [10] damage. LordSlowpoke [[2,1] is missed, and one of the goblins fumbles in another original manner. Finally, jetex [4,3v2,3-1] gets hit by both goblins, taking a total of [20+14] 34 damage. Wow, mooks are weak, whoda thunkit?
jetex's corpse [3v2-2] gets a flimsy hit enhanced by jetex's worse dodge, and deals [13*8] 104 damage.
TFB gestures! [5] Both of jetex's corpses shudder and begin to move! TFB accepts the orc's offer and [4] turns the dwarfbold army into skeletons.

Oh, and LordSlowpoke died/respawned, and Pariah is close to dying.

The Jump drive warps/folds space in a semi bubble around the ship. Everything that's outside the bubble is left behing. Said bubble is quite tiny to prevent interference and limit energy use. Sure you could modify the Jump parameters to extend the field beyond it's normal range, but your jump generator is underpowered as it is. It won't be safe, and it'll take some time.

Good answer!

A chicken produces 1d6-1 eggs per day if female and 1d3-4 if male.
The egg-collector collects all eggs at once, unless he gets a 3 (half of the eggs) or less (none, possible egg breakage).
An egg is good for, oh, half of a person's daily food. Nor reason to get caught up in the numbers.
