Roll to Dodge the Tyger

His Royal Majesty, the king of Siam wanted a tiger. But not just any tiger would do. He had heard tales of a most exceptional tiger, a man-eater, a killer of nearly two hundred men. Finally, at the cost of dozens of soldiers, it was captured alive, and bound into a cage to be sent down the river to his court. Your boat has wrecked while traveling down the river, and the captain (the only one of you who had any clue where you were or where you were going) is dead. Your group has managed to reach the shore, but that is little consolation. In every single direction the jungle stretches, and as you peer into the gloom of the jungle, two large eyes filled with rage stare back at you.

Spoiler: Goal (click to show/hide)

The goal of this game is to escape from the jungle and reach human habitation. If that proves to not be possible (as indeed, it is likely that every single one of you will die before escaping), the winner will be the player who manages to survive the dangers of the jungle and the tiger the longest.

Spoiler: Rules (stolen directly from Endless-RTD) (click to show/hide)

Standard D6 rolls will be used.

[Attacker d6] - [Defender d6] = [Damage]

If the dodge roll is greater than or equal to the attack roll, the attack is avoided. A dodge roll that is at least two higher than the attack roll prompts a counter attack from the defender, with a new attack and dodge roll. This cycle can continue indefinitely.

If the attack roll is one higher than the dodge roll, the attack is successful and can inflict minor to moderate injury. Each level after one higher signifies a more brutal attack, with more potential for greater injury depending on the combatants' equipment and the environment.

Weapons and armor, unless explicitly given a natural power to affect stats, don't affect combat rolls. Instead, they affect the result of the combat rolls. A clean hit against a player wearing armor vs. one not wearing armor (with the same rolls) will have different results. A solid attack with a sword will have more slicey results than with a fist.

Injuries
--------
Light Bleeding: 10 healing points. [-1 HP per turn]
Fracture: Requires medical attention and 20 healing points.
Heavy Bleeding: Requires medical attention and 20 healing points. [-5 HP per turn]
Very Heavy Bleeding: Requires skilled medical attention and 30 healing points. [-20 HP per turn]
Broken Bones: Requires skilled medical attention, then 40 healing points.
Missing Limb: Never heals, obviously.
---------
You make a healing roll each turn after an injury has been sustained; the amount you roll is added to your healing points, and the wound disappears when you have enough. For major wounds (anything above light bleeding), you can't make healing rolls until you've received the appropriate medical attention. Only doctors can provide skilled medical attention properly, anyone else gets a -2 to first aid rolls. Bleeding injuries drain health, of which each player starts with a maximum of 100. If a player has no bleeding injuries, they regain 4 hitpoints per turn.
-----------
Combat rolls without a weapon get a -1 to attack and -1 to damage.

Day/Night:
Day lasts for 7 turns, night lasts for 3.
You are required to sleep for 1 turn every day/night cycle, or else get a penalty for exhaustion.

Hunger:
Every five turns you go down a hunger level. Whenever you eat you go up at least one hunger level.
Bloated: Chance to throw up whenever you run or engage in strenuous activity, taking you down 3 hunger levels.
Full: +2 to healing rolls (eg. The 1d6 rolled each turn to see how much a wound heals)
Content: No effects
Hungry: -2 to healing rolls
Famished: -2 to healing rolls, you don’t regenerate any health
Starving: No healing, -1 to all rolls
Starving to death: -10 health per round, no healing, -2 to all rolls

GreatWyrmGold, you need to pick a more specific skill then creativity.

Alright. How about "Writing"? A bit less practical, but fits the concept well.

[Lalasa]

Name: Annie Marie (Princess Aniasalla Merdereth)
Appearance: Annie is 4'3" tall and weighs 64 lbs.  Her skin is dark tan and her hair is a deep raven black.  It is long and glossy, and very well maintained.  Her eyes are jade colored with gold speckles.  Her face is oval shaped and her nose is small.  She is 10 years old.  She wears a child's sized explorers outfit, obviously for play, but it has a lot of pockets.  She even has one of those safari explorer hats.  Annie is quiet and almost unnoticeable, but if you speak to her directly she is friendly and has a definite Siamese accent.  When she is enjoying herself, she giggles, and her pouts are adorable and heart-melting.  She looks suspiciously like a certain king's daughter and she's very intelligent and well-read.  She doesn't look particularly strong though... 
Backstory: People are probably wondering what a child is doing on a tiger expedition.  Well, Annie (Aniasalla) is the King of Siam's daughter who did the usual running away thing princesses do when they're bored.  Obviously she made a smart decision in sneaking on a trip to capture man-eating tigers.  She seems to be unaware of what the mission actually is because she's a stowaway who kept sneaking cakes from the galley.  If her father ever finds out she was on this trip, heads will probably roll... if she even makes it through the jungle that is.  She prefers that her daddy does not find about this little escapade so she's using a fake name for fun. 
Inventory: Binoculars (For the official safari get-up)
Skill: Princess Charisma.  That pout is deadly.  I think all princesses master this.

Is this okay?  I'd really like to play the bothersome fragile character, and I came up with this. 

ASSORT EDIT: Whenever I spot something like a grammar mistake or a spelling one, I will fix it.  I will fix it all.  Nothing major here.

[Cheesecake]

Don't worry. I'm going to be the stupid one who aggros everything, so there's nothing to be afraid of...until I die. 

[Remuthra]

I'll be aggroing everything as well, don't worry . We have plenty of people ready to have Fun.

[Lalasa]

I can see heads rolling.  Bring on the Fun! 
I'm not worried at all.  I'll use Noble power to save the day!  Except nobles don't have any powers.  Yeah!
