Many significant looks are exchanged about the monstrous corpse laying in front of the small party as Draco extricates himself from under it. There is palpable tension building in the air as an argument ensues about the proper use of the corpse.
Persus sees the brewing argument and decides to walk away before his second crucifix is burned. While they argue over bones and flesh, he searches about and finds a number of pieces of wood and vines which will be of use to the party.
Tomcost tries to suggest a fairly complete plan for the maximum use of the corpse, but instead of getting in on the action himself he walks off and grabs a small and mildly decrepit piece of wood. Not knowing anything about runes, he starts carving a random one into the wood. Pleased with his work, he channels energy into it. However, instead of causing anything nearby to grow, the wood itself undergoes rapid decomposition before his eyes, leaving him with an entirely rotten mass of detritus in only a matter of seconds. Luckily, however, all of the energy he grabbed from his environment dissipates into the spell, leaving his body feeling clean afterwards.
Scapheap walks away from the corpse and begins cradling his halberd and whispering something about “Psycho Mantis” to it. After a short and very creepy period of doing this, he wanders outside and finds a group of large leafed plants, and brings these leaves back to use as bandages in the future.
Urist also walks off, outside of the cave, with an unusually specific goal in mind. He knew he wanted large, sharp stones and long heavy sticks. Somehow he still got mixed around though, and ended up finding sharp sticks and heavy stones. Not quite what he wanted, but still quite useful!
Meanwhile, back at the corpse, three survivors pounce on it near simultaneously.
Patrick hacks off the beasts front paws at the wrist, and just before he is finished
Draco walks up and punches him in the back of the head. This blow is enough to daze him for long enough for Draco to get the back pair of claws and walk off untripped, where he grouchily grabs one of Persus’ pieces of wood and fashions a club which menaces with claws of a cave beast. As
Patrick comes to, he realizes Draco didn’t take anything he had wanted, despite having nearly knocked him out. He finishes harvesting his claws, and while doing this he noticed
Rune displaying the oddest behavior. He appears to be cutting out bones from the monster and then balancing them on his shoulders and head. As he tries desperately to make armor through this strange act, he becomes enraged (as he is want to do) and smashes all of the ribs into tiny shards.
Patrick continues his harvesting, without any ribs impeding his progress, and pulls out a substantial amount of organ meat.
Salvage the beasts mandibles and claws as well as it's internal organs. Focus on it and don't look up. Keep my ears open so if someone moves towards me I can trip them over.

I call bones! Make some light bone armor out of that.

Punch Patrick instead, then take the second pair of claws and use them to try and create my club/axe thing. Only use the rune-stone if he draws a weapon on me.

((I’m trying this all the quotes and rolls in a spoiler, so it’ll look cleaner and let me develop more of a narrative. Tell me what you think. I'll also be working harder on character sheets soon. They'll each get their own spoiler. Also, I'll figure out what turn it is soon.

(2.3 consumed) Your food stocks are fantastic. (24.1 edible)
You have one barrel of freshwater, and one barrel of cave water. You have 3 turns of fresh water and 4 turns of cave water.
(6) The skies are a clear, but despite the suns warming rays it is a little cold out.
You are have a small door protecting your cave from animals. Passage to the left is protecting by makeshift door.
You know where a fresh stream is just outside the cave. There is a pool which seems safe in the cave's atrium.
