Roleplay

[quote]Working slowly away from the wakeful dragons, Althea began to comb through the debris on the beach, looking for anything she could use.[/quote] The beach is a mess, covered with detritus both natural and dragon-made. All of the dragon-made stuff seems to have come from their ship. Plenty of broken crates and barrels, pieces of wood, scraps of canvas ... There's some rope that might prove useful. A few crates of cargo have made it here, but when checking inside, Althea finds only stacks and stacks of ceramic bowls, many of them broken. The most unique object she finds is a scroll case with a map inside. [quote]Recia starts to search around to find some food. Perhaps if lucky she can find some drinkable water. But she still carefully keeps herself in the sight of others.[/quote] There are some supplies here that made it through the storm, and between their two searches, Recia and Althea manage to turn up enough unspoiled food and clean water to last the entire group for five lean days. [b]Rolls:[/b] Searching (Mind roll) Althea: 19 - 2 = 17 Recia: 12 + 0 = 12 [i]These rolls determined what you found on the beach, particularly the amount of food and water you received.[/i] (Missed Xae-Lin -- they posted while I was still writing this post -- so I'll address their search in my next post, once a couple other actions have accumulated.)

[quote][Xae-Lin] They then turn towards the wreck, being careful to give the wary Skydancer their space and begin to search the wreck for anything that might be of use.[/quote] [quote]Acrux heads over to the piles of debris washed up on the shore, and begins to search the wreck for anything useful.[/quote] [quote][Odea] She scanned the area, picking her way slowly across the driftwood and shards of broken pottery.[/quote] [quote][Henrik] Along the way he poked through what crates and boxes that seemed to still be intact to see if he could find anything else he deemed would be useful.[/quote] Looking among a broken sea chest, Xae-Lin finds a working spyglass. In the lee of a large piece of driftwood, Odea finds -- yikes -- the body of a fae sailor. He seemed to have drowned. However, hanging from a cord around his neck is a functional, if rather small, compass. Acrux and Henrik find nothing of interest in their searches. [b]Rolls:[/b] Searching the shore (Mind) Xae-Lin: 17 - 2 = 15 (success!) Acrux: 4 + 1 = 5 (failure) Odea: 14 + 0 = 15 (success!) Henrik: 6 + 1 = 7 (failure) [quote]She pats her claws and stands up. She goes to gather some tenders and anything could sustain the fire burning. On the way, Recia observe the surrounding environment, (she wants to know exactly what is around.) she wonders if she can find some place could use as the shelter for everyone.[/quote] Between all the smashed crates and other flotsam, there's plenty of wood on the beach, but it all seems to be drenched. As she glances over the environment, Recia can't seem to make heads nor tails of the lay of the land. She just sees rocks, ocean, and cliffs to the north. She certainly doesn't see anywhere they might be able to get out of the elements; the area seems barren. [b]Rolls:[/b] Searching for firewood, observing the environment, and looking for shelter (Mind): 2 + 0 = 2 (failure)
