(Leg broken, but it can't effect my movement if I don't use it.)

Roll into the river.

You were planning to have a 15 year old magical girl kill Witches by drinking them under the table!? It's original, at least.

Swim downstream from the fire. If I get burned, revel in my +1 to resisting fire.

Wait, where were the +1s to my rolls? Everything I did was reckless!

Ah, I assumed you just meant to sit there and mope. If you had actually tried to do something though (like try to smother everyone with your flaming body, which is the only other thing you could have meant), you would have gotten a even worse roll due to all the penalties you had at the time. And due to having a roll of 0, you would have just sat there anyways.

I think you will find that rolling around on a broken leg is *quite* painful. Not as bad as running on one, but not exactly doable without extreme penalty.
On second thought, due to how amusing it is, I suppose ill allow you to avoid the penalty this way.

Also, with the exception of the crocodile man, everyone in the river at the end of the turn will have to make a check to avoid drowning.  The river isn't a nice place to be some mode of transportation.

That's what I meant. Though, now that you explained it, I'm just glad I'm *barely* alive.

So just because rolling down a hill is amusing, you'll let him not be penalized?

Rereading the turn, I do think I should have dedicated a fair bit more mention to that actually.
For the record, I understood.

Also, with the exception of the crocodile man, everyone in the river at the end of the turn will have to make a check to avoid drowning.  The river isn't a nice place to be some mode of transportation.
Wait, why doesn't Crocodile Dumbee need to make a Not-Drowning roll?

((I'd say Annie is pretty lucky at the moment, but she is a small child and she's all by herself in a jungle next to a cliff.  Hmm...))

Annie tries to look back to see if anyone followed her.  She already assumes that this was not the case and that everyone may have possibly died from the large fire.  Whoever these people are, her father must do better background checks!!  She also tries to rest a short distance away from the ravine.  It's too dark to travel far, but she doesn't wish to get knocked off the cliff.

What are those ridiculously stupid stuntmen up to now?!

(She's not sleeping yet.  Things are a bit too excitable for her to calm down right away for that.)

((I've seen movies like this, so my best advice for survival is to be as not Black/Latino as you possibly can.))
You seem to have the wrong genre of movie. This isn't a horror movie. This is one of those documentaries about when a bunch of people got lost in the wilderness and slowly starve to death/killed by wild animals, the story pieced together by journal entries. So yeah, being white won't help you at all (especially since those documentaries are usually only about white people).

((Yeah, you're right. The only Blacks and Latinos in this type of movie would be indigenous tribesmen that go "HUNGA-DUNGA-PUNGA" and make sacrifices to the sky God. Horror logic wouldn't work at all, for example, in a horror movie if you're a pretty busty blonde girl you'll live to the sequel, but in this genre you'll end up captive, and depending on the shock value of the work, raped/killed.

Best Advice: Be the protagonist.))

Because trying to stuff Fate/Whatever's engrish and the title of a 17th century book on statecraft into Pokemon syntax tends to make the content incomprehensible.

Sadly, you only get a +1 to causing and manipulating fire.

What if I try to convince the fire to not burn us? Would I get +1 to manipulating fire?

Take my crate, pull out some dynamite, and run further from the fire.
