People are always saying that murder is bad, but you know who never gets asked? The victims. I have no idea whether murder is okay or not, but I certainly know who we should be asking about it.

I'll probably want to change some things when it isn't 4 am and I'm fully awake, but this is mostly done.

Okay, here’s version 2. Still need to finish off and tidy up some things, work on colours and actually give this guy a name (if anyone has any suggestions on that front it wouldn't go unappreciated).

Still working on my draft, but I've only now just realised how similar some parts of my concepts were to @YummyYummy, I might need to go back and change some things. Also, names are hard.


And posted. Honestly wasn't really sure what to post so it's a short one of Aya wandering around doing the same stuff as last time.
Goblin Aya

Aya was getting excited, unreasonably so actually, considering she had no idea of how this sudden learning thing worked in the first place. Still, even if she wasn’t successful, learning something about how the system itself worked, or rather didn’t work, would be valuable in its own right.

As she walked Aya continuously analysed every critter she saw to the best of her abilities. Butterflies… Those were the post chrysalis forms of caterpillars right? Designed pretty much solely for reproduction… also pollinators, what was the evolutionary advantage to that? Incidental as a result of their diet or maybe benefiting the ecosystem at large was indirectly beneficial to them…

She tried to maintain her usual sense of caution, occasionally snapping her improvised weaponry back into position and scanning for danger as a sudden wave of panic hit her, but each and every time Aya’s attention was quickly sucked back to the task of identifying the local wildlife. Birds… flight was useful but the mechanics behind it escaped her grasp… a centipede, lots of legs, lived in the underbrush, probably poisonous...

@Crusader Lord

By the way i just wanted to point out he isn't denying you because he wants to, your offer to make the weapon for him is not possible because he gave his pelt and horn to Aya so he has nothing on him.

Which by the way @TheMushroomLord still with us?


Apologies for not posting in a bit, uni just started back up so I’ve been busy the last few days. Will post later today.

On the one hand, my current idea is for a specialist, but at the same time literally, everyone seems to be making those and it'd be a shame if the other classes don't get representation given they're really cool. Then again arts has some representation already and I prefer not to play melee characters so it's probably fine. I guess this group will just be really specialised in specialists.
@TheMushroomLord

Around is mainly trees and shrubs along with a few small bugs like beetles and flies. She would also notice smaller animals like butterflies and large bugs. I am not a biologist or whatever so I don't really know all the small bugs and animals in our own animal kingdom to do them justice. Let's just say it's nothing that would fill your stomach or would provide extra skills

Yeah, I figured as much. Personally, I'm guessing it'd take analysing monsters to earn the skill at the very least if one exists at all, but for now, Aya's going to be analysing anything that moves in any case.
@Jangel13 Assuming Aya's attempts thus far to gain a skill that would help her analyse creatures/monsters has thus far been unsuccessful but given she doesn't know the difference between monsters and normal animals she's going to analyse anything that moves, bugs, birds, actual monsters or whatever, so what exactly is around?

Other than that not really sure what my next post should be, as far as I know, we've all walked off in search of various things and given our different goals, I'm assuming there's a degree of separation between one another even if we remaining relatively close still. So I can't think of anything other than to continue searching.

@Eviledd1984 I wasn't included in the update?
Pretty sure that's the wrong person :p. Jangle said they didn't know what to do with you just going to the bush. If you want Argos, Kir and Aya are all outside in roughly the same area, so you could probably meet up with them.

It is true that treatment methods are lacking. However, at our rate of evolution, we will need replacement gear within a week... perhaps two. Rotting becomes less of an issue in those timeframes.

We just need better manufacturing methods and tools by then. Given the bent of some of us for gear, I have few worries about that.

That's what I'm getting at, if we can only make next to worthless armour and we'll grow out of it really quickly, for the time being, we're better off working on the tools to make better stuff or other means of defence. I would say that we could make a shield though, while it might end up a little on the small side after evolution, it'll still be usable and unlike armour we could make a shield that has at least some defensive value.

Also, aren't there people amongst us that know the location of spiders? If we're looking for materials to craft with isn't eating spiders by far our best option provided we can safely hunt them?
