((Hey- If i'm not around to post, can you just make me auto-brick and eat, drink, and sleep when necessary?))

I consider Derek's suggestion of reducing the dirt content of my bricks, and wonder what good it would do. to that end, I make 10 bricks with my recipe, and 10 with Derek's reduced-dirt recipe, marking them, so i can easily tell the difference. I then bake them, and when they are cooled, I put them through rigorous testing by smashing them against boulders to see which type holds out longer. I then continue to make more bricks of whichever recipe is stronger.

I'm pretty sure you don't get a free machete because it fits your character.

I weave a mat out of grasses so as to be some sort of bed-like cushion and I also look for potentially medicinal plant leaves.

It takes you a while, and lots of grass but you finally have a little grass mat. You also manage to find 40 medical leaves.

Viktor ALWAYS carries a Kukuri knife (huge machete) with him for self defense, he is a loner, he only speaks Russian. Viktor is a blacksmith, craftsman, and a carpenter, needless to say he can mine and chop trees accordingly. Viktor is slow to make friends especially given the language gaps, he is mistrustful of most people and guards his things closely.

When he arrived on the island with the others he immediately set off for the highest point he could find, afterwords he began chopping wood, after that he began to gather some stone from the ground, not having a pickaxe yet. Exhausted after a hard days work he placed his satchel on the ground inside a gap between two rocks where he would make a makeshift hammock for the night using a few sticks from what he gathered.

I added you to the list of players. Just saying that I'll only be accepting 1 more player. (If someone should die for some reason, a new person can come as a replacement but I doubt that's gonna happen any soon.)
Unfortunately you can't start with a weapon. (You can't actually start with anything but your clothes.)
You go to the middle of the island, which is also the highest point, and collect some rocks and chop down 3 trees with the seemingly leftover axe at camp. You chop one of the logs into sticks and make a hammock. Then the axe breaks.
I think you should all invent a better way to attach sticks to rocks. Even with grass tied by a level 15 crafter would last like 7 uses.

K I can make you auto do those things. Though I would appreciate if you would check in every 3 - 5 days. I'll do so that you stop when you would have to drink a 6th liter in that day or when we're out of berry bushes. (I suggest someone starting a farm soon because if the bushes end there's only 3 bushes (1 of each type.) on the little island.)
You make 10 bricks using both recipes and test them. (Surprisingly you gain no hunger or thirst from this.) The bricks that were made using your recipe are stronger so you continue to make those.

I'm pretty sure you don't get a free machete because it fits your character.

An accurate prediction. You ninja'd me!

Does herbalism count as farming too? If so, I start a farm. If not, I start a farm anyway, because someone has to.

(I thought there were no rules so we could have a weapon if we wanted but eh, sad face  )

(Also, Can we attack other players or is Viktor just paranoid? I mean he is but will people actually try to steal his shit)

(One last question, I didn't see it specified but can we do multiple things per day,(sorry if i'm being a bit questioning, my first forum based roleplay) if not then I'll just delete this next part)

Viktor finishes making the hammock, feeling quite parched and a tad hungry he reaches into his satchel and pulls out a liter of water, drinking only enough to satisfy him, careful not to overindulge, he takes a small chunk of the venison he found in the boat, chowing down on it before knocking two rocks together until one is sharp enough to cut a tree, he grabs one of the sticks and some vines from a nearby tree, attempting to wrap the vine around the sharpened "axe" head, finishing it off with a knot, hoping this would be strong enough to gather more wood he began hacking away at more trees.

After watching others fail at making axes that will last, I try my hand at a different design: rather than tying a rock to a single stick, i take two sturdy sticks, and put one on each side of a sharpened stone, tying the sticks together above and below the blade, effectively sandwiching them together. I then give my improved axe to one of the more accomplished woodcutters to test it.

[adwarf]

Grabbing my axe I slit my throat, and bleed out I make it look like someone killed me.

I Doctorr the corpse and determine the cause of death.
