As the day progresses you go back to gathering grasses. The sun is warm on your back, and getting down out of the wind feels really good... You fall asleep in the lee of a large tussock. You awaken to a small crab pinching at your nostrils. Some time has passed, judging from the light.

Personality: 6
Luck: 12
Middle-aged in spite of his nickname, doesn't have a beard. Grey hair. Think of that one old man from every series ever, except when he tells you to get off his lawn he means there's a tree about to crush you. His default grumbling topic is how he's a carpenter, not a lumberjack. Dexterity versus strength. Brains versus brawn, get off my law- crush

Your berries carefully secured in a handkerchief, you set to with your axe and fell a large palm. You discover that it has quite serviceable wood. Is there a particular cause to which you wish this wood to go?

Luck 12
Homeless guy that went to sleep in the ship's cargo area one night to get out of the rain, and woke up on the high seas. Hair is dark brown and very messy, and his beard seems to be locked in a state of perpetual scruffiness. Skinnier than a man should be, and his clothes are in a state of moderate disrepair.

Luck:

After some time, a brown-and-white shorebird flutters down towards the nest. It catches sight of your greasy head at the last moment, and chirps in surprise as it wriggles away through the tall grass. It evades your grasping fingers.

Pers:

You take a refreshing bath in the shallow stream with the last little slip of French lavender soap. Your pet rodent struggles with the strength of a tom-cat when you try to get it to join you, and sits on the shore watching. Occasionally it chirps out sharply in your direction, almost as if to reprimand you for your current un-rodent-like state.

Wit:
8, 5
You find a clump of berry-bushes at the edge of the tree-line near the stream. You hear a curious chirping sound now and then as you gather the berries into a convenient container, which is... ah! The skull you found earlier will do nicely.
As you finish, you see that Alira has followed you here, her body suddenly jerks in surprise, and she leaps away from where she had been standing. Coming closer, you can see that she has been snake-bitten in the calf.

The Duke is easy to follow so long as he carries on shouting in German. You find him in the midst of some berry-bushes, the fruit of which he is depositing into a mossy-green skull...
Ironically, at this exact moment, you see a flash of red and black at your feet and two sharp pains in your calf. The banded snake whips away into the water, and you are left with a burning, twisting sensation in your leg. +1 Exhaustion
