Scenario: 11
Season: Spring

I got up in a very poor situation. Apart from the given scenario 11 damages, my clothing was shredded bad, and I could only create 4 bandages. I made do and began wandering - I knew the map was full of caves, and I needed to find one as soon as possible to find some food and temporary shelter until my wounds heal. Eventually, after a hard fight with a very irate squirrel, I came upon an ominous looking cave. After rigging up a few torches, I went in. My exploration started very well - some very nice armor was found, and enough food to keep me going. I continued to descend until I happened upon an Elder Tribesman who was sleeping. I pondered killing him - it would be very easy to kill him before he could even react with a few swift stabs to the head. However, I decided against it. Even though I spared him, I didn't magically get food for my good deed. I was very hungry, and I needed to change that. So I continued wandering until I found a very unlikely duo who converged on me at once - the first unlikely duo in our journey. An Elk and a Weasel. The Weasel went down in one hit, but the Elk took a little finesse to take down. He yielded more than enough food to keep my going, so I continued my descent. I stepped into the 4th level and immediately saw a fish and a fox. The fox stared me down. To my dismay, the fox decided to attack me. I managed to get a hard hit on it, flipping it right over. Instead of killing it, I simply left it because I was injured enough and it wasn't worth the risk.

I continued exploring this very large 4th floor. I turned a corner and saw, to my extreme displeasure, a blob of red. Not a bloodscape, but a Nzerpej warrior. Now, mind you, I've got 25% injuries, a club, a small knife, and few pieces of armor. I was definitely not going to risk this one, so I turned around and took two steps. I found out that the warrior wasn't alone. However, instead of being with other warriors, he was with an unlikely partner (the second unlikely duo of our journey, and the last); a giant grizzly bear. I simply turned my head and rested until I blacked out and died. I felt some strange accomplishment in this character, even though he got mauled by a Nzerpej AND a bear.

:blink: brother, i stay out of caves. i don't think i've ever gone into one and came out alive. i'll leave them to other adventurers. give me wide open forests, lakes and enough villages to make life interesting.

ironically enough, as i was reading your post, i happened to glance at the advertisement at the bottom of the page.... believe it or not, it was for bear hunting! :lol: maybe you should check it out? ;) happy hunting!

Caves not so scary if you know what to do. ;-)

Just clear the first level and burn the downstairs.

Do caves have infinite downstairs levels?

Technically, yes. URW generates more as you go deeper. But alas, all floors don't have stairs leading downwards. :rolleyes:

What is the record on how far in a cave someone has got?

If I remember it right, you have to go down 30floors to finish the adventure quest. I reckon I got to about floor 40-50 before a bear found me :(

Damn those bears! :P

15.

Not ironic at all, as they are Google's targeted ads and they show an ad based on the contents of the page they're at. :)

Note that the URW roleplay thread has ads like "Martial arts weapons" and "LARP latex-foam weapons" on it. No wonder, really. Google ads work.
