The Misadventures of the Missed Adventurers

[Jack Simth]

ooc:[It works.]

Narp, D and Jack find themselves in a small clearing in the middle of a dense jungle. Oddly, the wildlife doesn't quite match the plants. You would expect to see monkeys or parrots in a jungle like this; instead, the wildlife consists of squirrls, rabits, deer, wolves and the like - creatures you would find in a forest, not a jungle. There is not a speck of fog to be seen.

Jack "As usually happens in cases like this, the plant life soaked up most of the energy. Things will even out over time as the animals eat the plants and distribute the energy, but for now, things will be a bit odd. The local fauna will likely have a large population boost come spring, but that shouldn't hurt anything. On the plus side, the area for many many miles should be stable now."

ooc:[Not that we have said what it is - we can still declare mountains in the distance or whatever if need be.]

Jack "Narp, you should be coming down off of that spell I put on you soon, so we probably ought to set up camp here until you start to feel better."

That said, Jack unrolls his cot so Narp will have something comfortable to rest on while he gets over the hangover from Jack's spell.

Jack "Oh, and I suppose we will need something to eat, won't we?"
"animantrix geologix empowererst"

With that, a small golem forms,
Jack (to golem) "Catch a rabbit and bring it back here."
Hearing that, the golem runs off into the jungle at a remarkable pace.

Jack "Don't worry - the golem will be back in a few minutes with something for us to cook up; I included a small haste spell in its matrix. Meanwhile, we need to start a fire. Anyone have some flint?"

D "I'll take care of the fire."

A few minutes later, camp is set up and D has a fire cheerily blazing away, with a spit prepared for when the golem returns.

After a few minutes, the golem returns with a rabbit, which had apparently been run down. D skins it, dresses it, and puts it on the spit to cook.

Jack (to golem) "I suppose I ought to do something about you, shouldn't I?"
"Dissolvez"

Hearing that, the golem dissolves into powder, its purpose complete.

ooc:[It has been a while since we've done any camping or eaten anything, I suspect it's about time.]
