World: 72 Dark sky is periodically shattered by bright blue-green explosions. The flat, artifical rocky ground outside the portal holds the scars of fire and explosives, and in the distance a large mountainside carving is in terrible disrepair, two of the four faces are completely crumbled, while the last bearded figure has an undetonated bomb lodged in his left ear, causing cracks to run through his face. A battered green sign lays bent and slightly rusted off to the side near the ship's portal, bearing the words, "...oun.. ..hmore... ..ext.. exi...

Drop the grass in group storage. Now that my mind is still in places where it couldn't get on its own, try to hatch the egg.
attempt: 96
quality: 36
base influence: 93+36+108(egg)=237
During your clear moments of lucidity after using the bong, you figure out what was wrong with the egg. A normal egg is warm, and this one, is hot. Think what it might need to hatch, if a normal egg needs gentle heat, what sort of conflamation might this new egg need. Clapping your hands together in an impressive show of control and skill, you summon a thin wire of divine power that radiates immense heat. circling the egg with this, you carefully tweak the time, pushing the egg to hatch. For a moment, you think even this has failed you, then a tiny hairline crack appears in the egg, followed by another, and another. Before long the egg is covered in cracks, and you wait anciously for the creature inside to get out. It bursts into life with a small explosion, knocking you back from your crouched position, and leaving a small scortched mark all around it. The bird is small, about the size of a grouse or desert road runner, with a long sleek neck, and elegant tail. However those normal aspects of the creature are far from your mind, the plumage of constantly burning fire that replaces feathers, and the tiny gemstone like globes that are eyes stare deep into your soul, boosting your spirit as if you had just heard the greatest of modivation speeches. Letting the heat in your hands fade, you stare in astonishment as the tiny Phoenix cheeps at it's surroundings fearlessly.

!Base influence: 216!I'll use the last plank to make some more generic mechanisms.
attempt: 99+20+1=120
quality: 88
base influence: 47+88+36(plank)=171
You're really getting good at making mechanisms. The work becomes very routine as you quickly stamp several high quality gears from the wood. Each one has many uses but even the untrained eye can see the sharp edges and smooth interlocking tines that are cut into the wood.

!Base influence: 73!Grab 2 bars of platinum and do it right this time
attempt: 25+20+1=46
You choose two bars of platinum and get to work, you feel like you come close, but fate just dosen't seem to be with you. You fail again at making a platinum katana, and wonder if your time might be better suited elsewhere.

Carve an image of Cheddarius bleeding with Fil laughing at him on another bone
attempt: 62+3=65
quality: 11
base influence: 11+11+31(bone)=53
Recovering from your momentary lapse of maturity, you decide to go ahead and carve your bone with Cheddarius bleeding upon it, and finally manage to complete the engraving. It's a little crude, and hard to make out, but the bone is engraved, and with some explanation the image upon the bear bone would make for a good conversation piece.

!Base influence: 62!I buy three pieces of equipment to help me gather.
I then claim the nautilus tentacles, one bar of platinum and 2 units of white cricket ants
I cook the nautilus tentacles into a sushi fit for a fire lizard (yes all 90). The ants are used to get my fire lizards to help me cook them. Any overflow of the nautilus sushi goes into group storage. If I don't use all the ants they go into group storage before the nautilus sushi.
spending 750 influence, you purchase from the ship three gathering tools in the form of a remote radar unit, complete with beeping screen unit and tiny rotating dish. [ +3 gather equipment, -750 influence ]
attempt: 74+5=79
quality: 69
base influence: 5+69+75=149
Taking some of the nautilus tentacles you set about cooking them with your fire lizard friends. The crickets are quickly eaten, and tiny bursts of flame are added to your divine powered heat. You had initially planned to cook all of the tentacles, but the lack of proper cooking gear slows you down, and there are quite a large number of the tentacles. You are able to cook a handful of them however, by just grabbing as much as you can and heating them quickly.

!Base influence: 149!- 10 small smooth nautilus tentacles
!Base influence: 150!Note: see the rule about trying to make too many things at once. I will limit anything like this that ends up being too much for one day's action. Remember that a unit in the inventory is the smallest usable piece, and generally you will only use 1-2 units to make something, possibly consuming up to 10 or 20 in special cases. Making 90 of anything is being too ambitious.

Along one side of the work area, and small tube opens up and reveals a hallway, Cheddarius walks out unsteadily, but seems healthy at least. And ready to work. allrighty then, one more day here on this world. Better make it last. You know the whole errors and mistakes things. Let me know.
