In this forum you will play as a newly-promoted Other-Dimensional-Extortion-Facilitator, and
journey into the unknown, with the intention on labeling, patenting and packaging pretty much everything you can, all in the name of profit. With small army of expendable* employees at your call players will start as they venture forth through the portal into the 'other-space'.

Question. What is the other space?
(Devilishly Handsome) Answer. The 'other space' is the landscape through a series of strange doorways in, ahem, 'sacred' temples found in the middle of the Northern Territory. The areas inside these doors defy the laws of time and space, and vary from wind-scoured plains to lush rain-forests.

E2, call me crazy, but i think you may be correct. be wary. might be something in the logs, or worse, the logs themselves. E5. keep watch. there may be more to this forest then there seems to be. E2, you get the logs into a fireplace formation. E3, once E2 is done, light it up. E4. get me some of those leeches. but DONT TOUCH THEM. use sticks ore otherwise. E1, get the tents up.

(E5 will stay guard for now. Medic is to be determined. scouts are E3 and E2 for now. Group leader is to be determined.)

E1 E2 and E3 find some berries, which might not be poison (A small course blue berry, a large tight yellow one, and a jelly like, raspberry,)
E2 volunteers to risk testing them "As long as he gets to eat that sick raspberry thing".
You have the option to Research the leeches, although a proper lab would aid in your progress.
