Tribal Survival

[Little Bill]

@DeadBeatWalking yay! would you like a beard on that mute? Also do you mean fancy suspenders or dungaree style?

@Mae

Yes to the beard, and yes to the dungaree 'spenders.

[RedDusk]

>Ug: Find a rock to benchpress.

[Eklispe]

>Spend 1 point to have Goku gain 2exp in "Swarm Powers"
>Does that count as his action?

[Mae]

@eklispe nope, using points does not count as an action :D

[Brasslazer]

@MaeSo what you're saying is that everyone could theoretically invest all their points into Goku's Swarm Powers and make him a superhero.

Or we could invest them all into Ug's Breeding and make him the love-master. Just saying.

[Mae]

@Brasslazer Yep, if the Gods wanted to come to do that, they could. bearing in mind it's XP though and not a guarenteed level :D It take 7 players to take a character from 0 XP to Lvl 2 in a skill :)

Bridge: For crossing areas of water safely.
Butchers: Using this building increases quality of produce, prevents ghosts and protects raw meat from predators.

UG THE FABULOUS approaches TOM THE MUTE and FLEXES. He FLEXES SO HARD that RESIDUE FABULOUS is ABSORBED into TOM'S BEING, into his VERY SOUL.

DAMN. OF COURSE TOM THE MUTE will JOIN THE AWESOME ONES.

or he would, if there was a FREE HOUSE for him to LIVE IN. If TOM wants to JOIN THE CLAN, they will have to BUILD A HUT for him.
