Look for anything else useful. Hope the hut's rightful owner is far, far away.
Otherwise:
The unknown human is 5' 9" (average height for a Brit.) and you have no idea what he's been doing recently, but he has a knack for starting fires and a basic understanding of nuclear physics.

[LordSlowpoke]

Slither to dwarf.

Examine closely.

Oh. That is going to be very interesting.

[Greenstarfanatic]

Examine Sharp Weapons collected. Try to find something to heal my wounds, before walking over to the eel-thing.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Somehow, I doubt the relationship between those actions.

Turn Eight


Josh

Once awake start searching the forest for food.

{3} You wake up and climb down from your tree, you search about for about half an hour but do not find anything that is edible.

Grek

Investigate groans.

{1} You cannot seem to locate whatever is making the noise.

Unknown Human

Look for anything else useful. Hope the hut's rightful owner is far, far away.

{6} You manage to find two cabinets full of salted and cured meat, unknown animal. {1} You do not find anything useful on the bookshelf. {5} But through some addtional searching you find a small cellar. Filled with barrels of unknown content, a few glass vials, various herbs and roots, and a couple corpses.

Ynot

Slither to dwarf. Examine closely.

{4} You slither over to the dwarf who is greatly happy to finally be recognized. You stare at him with great intensity. He seems to be armed, wearing leather clothing, he is approximately four feet tall with a brown double-plaited beard and shaggy unkempt hair.

Bork

Examine Sharp Weapons collected. Try to find something to heal my wounds, before walking over to the eel-thing.

{1} Turns out, the odd little hermit only had wooden tools. You are holding a Wooden cleaver and two wooden medium-sized knives. {2} You do not find any healing items. You are now standing next to the Dwarf and Ynot.

{4} A.I. Valentine

Valentine tries to pull the strut off of Blenk.

{2} Valentine does not make any progress toward removing the strut.

{4} A.I. Blenk

Blenk tries to push the metal off of himself.

{5} Blenk got the strut off his chest. He is no longer pinned. Blenk stands up.

Dwarf

I give praise to the Northern gods that these thick morons noticed me. I try to explain my purpose to the reptile.

{2} Dwarf(Whose name is Arken, coincidentally), yells, pleads, beseechs, make hand gestures, even goes so far as to slap you in frustration. But is incapable of conveying his message in a way you can understand.

Spot/Listen Check:
{5} That plume of smoke has gotten closer. It is approximately 50 feet off into the forest. It has not gotten any larger. The Dwarf is wielding a mace of some kind. You see more clouds on the horizon.

-~-~-
As for the NPC. He is fully fleshed out and everything is currently sitting on the master document, it's just a matter of spot checks, asking the right questions, and, naturally, luck whether or not these things come to light. Most of it was probably wasted effort as no doubt someone/thing/Evil NPC will kill him before half of it comes into play. But that's just part of the fun.

Yes, I did say those butchery tools were steel at some point earlier, but it's a 1. I have to do something to screw you royally, and I would rather not make you accidentally destroy the only decent(and I am stretching that definition) weapons in game just yet.

Oh yes, and the invulnerability is of the Deus Ex Machina variety; you will still get hurt, you will still bleed, you will still have awful dodging, armor class, and every other sad little thing low-level, ill-equipped adventurers have, but you will have absolutely insane luck. I.E. Just as the Goblin swordsmen(Swordsgoblin?) is about to skewer you a bolt of lightning strikes his raised sword! Shattering the blade and stunning the goblin.

Sorry about the A.I.'s, but it's nearing two full days. The show must go on.

[TopHat]

Loot corpses. Inspect vials and herbs.

[Onyxjew944]

Tophat, just wondering. But does Unknown Human have any knowledge about herbology, alchemy, biology, human anatomy, or chemistry?

[Caerwyn]

Sorry!

Blenk's element will, of course, be Earth. And the rest sounds fine, thank you.

Blenk will try and...Somehow...heal. Make sure to bandage any wounds. No need to worry about disease/sickness, trolls live in putrid swamps most of their lives.

Also, select Goblins, guys. I love murdering goblins! Easy, plenty of experience, hordes of the buggers...

[Greenstarfanatic]

((Just so you know, my goal in this is to royally screw everyone and everything, including myself, over. Good luuuck!))

Scream something in Swedish before tossing one of the wooden knifes at the dwarf's feet. Calm down and sitting on the ground.

Rant

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Well Bork. I have no idea how that's going to work out, but you being the only one with weapons and the mages are still mastering mere cantrips, you're probably going to make a good run of it.

Considering I now realize you screwing everyone over is going to be more entertaining than waiting for random encounters, I'm actually not going to try and get you killed anymore. Have a go of it. Just don't kill anyone important. Obscure plot twists to cover up random psychotic murder will get old. And PvP is neither encouraged nor discouraged. I said this was open-ended. There will be quests but storylines are only for those who want them. Cutting a path of blood and disembodied limbs through the countryside will also work. You technically don't have to stay together, either. I'll just be putting less effort into clever and creative scenarios because I will be making seven of them.

That rant went completely off topic.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Oh, wait, where am I?

[Onyxjew944]

I think you're still standing on the Wreckage. You didn't find Blenk groaning last turn, but you can just see him standing up now.

Unrelated:

I had to vote in the poll so I could see the results, but I'm not counting my vote. Which was for Goblins. And I just picked that because it's the first option. No real reason.

[GreatWyrmGold]

Can I see where the dwarf is?

[Onyxjew944]

I actually include the locations of everyone, NPCs and PCs alike, in the status report below the turn results. It's the first entry right under the name. His entry is currently under "Arken". But to actually answer your question, he is standing by the puddle everyone seems to be congregating around.

Unless you meant relative to your position, because I just now realize I am the only one who has proverbially "seen the map". The Puddle is about ten to twenty feet from the Wreckage.

If everyone would like me to, I could make a rough sketch of the map and release it, barring unforeseen complications, in a few days.
