Hunger/Thirst

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Each tribe member starts full, with 5/5 Food Points. Each point is one turn. Edible plants give +1, raw meat +2, cooked meat +3. More complicated recipes that can be found later could potentially give more. Thirst will be handed similarly. Drinking gives +1/5. Water pouches can hold four drinks.

Crafting
The builder can make clothing, water pouches, and packs from skins. He can also produce weapons. Experimentation will be the only way to perfect recipes. Better items will add unstated roll bonuses.

The tribe enters the dense forest just as the sun is reaching its peak. Everyone sits down on some logs to take a rest. A strange bird can be heard overhead. After the brief rest the tribe continues through the forest, rather uneventfully. It is evening when they finally reach a small clearing. A dirty stream of water is flowing out from underneath a nearby cliff face. Perhaps you wish to prepare a temporary camp?

[NRDL]

Yeah, make camp.  Star the building of the camp personally, ask the builder to help you, he knows better. 

Am I actually allowed to give some orders? 

[Evil Marahadja]

Aardvark nods at Graagh, and starts to assist him building the main camp. He uses his flint to ignite a small fire in the fireplace he is building.

(If time before sunset)
"Aardvark build spear."
And he disappears into the forest, searching for suitible sticks which he later is going to use for spears.

[NRDL]

Thanks for the assist, also, my guy's name is Graagh.  Not the most dignified name for a chieftain, but both his parents were crazies so...

I c wut u did thar. 

[Tiruin]

Erathu looked up from his crouched position and then returned his gaze to the ground. He was on all fours, as his den-mother taught him to be. He looked to his right, then to his left. There were others that looked like him, smelled like him even. They were standing on only two arms, strange.

He sniffed the air, it was filled with many scents. Other creatures were here, he knew. The trees spoke their presence. He took a glance at the two-legs and snorted. Not much was being done but them opening their jaws and emitting weird noises. Ahh well, they were his den-mates, he knew that much. The big man looked to be the Alpha. He tilted his head, observing them then returned to looking around. They needed food.

The sun was slowly falling from the sky. Darkness. He had to do something.

He grunts. Moves away from the others. Tries to find an animalistic scent. Hunt and Kill.

[Coolnesstod]

Bob grabs his spear and follows Erathu so they can hunt together. "So, how does you want this to go?"

Hunt with Erathu and try to get as much meat as possible.

((I would think we would be able to atleast communicate in our own language, cause if we cant, then how do we cooperate?))

Skills

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Like most other RPGs, there will be four skills. Each will have a rating 0-5 for each tribe member. Each time you successfully complete a task that would fit into a skill you gain one experience. For your first level up in a skill you will need 5exp, then 10, ect... (Note: You will be able to level skills above 5)
Intelligence- Ability to make fire, remember what plants are edible, ect...
Strength- Determines carrying capacity, enables caveman to lift heavy objects, ect...
Hunting- Ability to track/kill animals.
Speech- Enables basic communication, speech can evolve as the species does.

The Crazy: The Crazy was raised by wolves originally and is thus very unpredictable. This class is incapable of speech, so anyone wanting to be him/her must RP accordingly. Extremely high Strength/Hunting.

((Body language. But I'm assuming I can partly understand...didn't say in OP.))

Even for just a few steps, Erathu could hear the thump-thump of footfalls on the cold loam soil. He turned around and saw one of the two-legs coming over to him, saying something with mixed tone. Well, at least it would be like the old days, a pair hunting down their prey.

Spoiler: How we can speak (click to show/hide)

Well, there is the usual (partly comprehensive speech), but:

Code: [Select]

[acronym="Translation of what you want said into fluent English"]Your own words[/acronym]

Which may look like this: "Nomenoi re ehis shar okh lexri."
This keeps up with anything that others could do, makes up our own language and even allows body language to be specified! In some computers, [/acronym] words would have a dotted line below it, some cannot see this, so I think we should limit acronyms to speech and communication only. Hover your mouse pointer over the speech or words to see the meaning.

If the GM permits, that is.

Too bad The Crazy can't speak 

[Flintus10]

As the others go about building the camp Hlock sits back lazily staring into the sky. He begins to take interest in the actions of Erathu and when he and bob stood to leave Hlock followed.

"You protect Hlock. Hlock look for plants?"
