In this RPG, you are a caveman. You are confronted with daily problems such as dinosaurs, volcanic eruptions, and brawls with rival caveman clans. Fill out this sheet, and I'll give you some options as well.
Name: Family Name: Family Size: Family Home: Height: Weight: Weapon: Skills(spend 20 stat points total) Strength: Speed: Intelligence: Reaction:
Here are some facts(don't have to use in rubric): You may choose from these for weapons: Club-all around weapon, +1 Strength +1 Reaction Rock-heavy weapon, very powerful +2 Strength -1 Speed -1 Reaction Hands-versatile, can pick up small rocks or small sticks to fight +1 Speed +1 Intelligence +2 Reaction You can get better weapons as you go through the game. Reaction means if a disaster occurs(a beast attacks, earthquake, volcano, etc.) you can help your family and do something quickly. Height and Weight is very important and can affect your Reaction time(I'll tell you what you're like once you've decided) Max height is 6 foot tall, Max weight is 170 pounds. Min height is 5 foot, min weight is 100 pounds. Pretty soon I'll make a system for weapons upgrades, as well as tasks you may complete.

OK, you collect a dozen eggs. You look around and see that a smaller version of the deer has started to come out of the woods, after the threat from above has been eliminated. You see that they are slow moving, but have impeccable eyesight. That was just a thing to think about. The pterydactyl will last you 5 turns, so just think ahead. Tip: If you observe other's actions, you will probably be better at survival.

Well, not necessarily. You can get your stats up and be successful, but you have to make the right choices every time. Also, you'll be interacting with people a lot, just so you know :P Now, do you choose to stay in your cave or inspect the stash? P.S. humans stash in caves, the nuts are stashed in a hollow tree.

Well, since your family now has several abundant sources of protein, you all get stronger(+2 strength). One day, a group of 5 lone women come to your cave. They are very weak and obviously would not survive without help. Your food supply allows you to accept them, but the room in your cave means if you take them in you will have less room to store technology. What do you do? UPGRADES: shelter(can be used for living or storage, but only one or the other): Must have combined Intelligence of 13, combined Strength of 7.

I will find some brush to hide in and pick up a few stones.

Catch one, poke it wih a sharp stick, and follow the trail of blood (it'll show me where it's going(probably to a stash of some sort). Also, if this causes me to run into a T-Rex...

OK then, you sit on a nearby boulder and discover that little rodents store their nuts there. You have seen several of these around the woods near your home, what would you like to do(you have plenty of storage space in your cave, there is a second chamber in it)? You have learned a good lesson today, and that is to store your food and prepare for harder times. +1 Intelligence.

OK, you gather the stones in your leather pouch, but as you settle into the brush by the plains, the mini-deer scatter. Hmm, if only you had a long range hunting weapon? UPGRADE TIME!!! Bow and Arrow- Combined intelligence of 8, combined Reaction of 10. I'll try and present some events soon that let you get your stats up.

Nah, T-Rex don't pay attention to small animals, and the T-Rex only live in flat plains, not mountainous woodland where you are. Anyway, you follow this small rodent to a massive hollow log! You find hundreds of nuts inside. Would you like to take them(you have to take 2 trips)?

They tell you that they would be willing to offer themselves as slaves(not in the perverted way). They say as soon as they are strong enough, they will do any work you can find for them. Also, you can look for a second cave for them to live in. Also, you have a few boys who are about to become men. Some of them are anxious to move away and start their own clan. Your decision.
Alright, I might not be able to post for a little while. So consider this a break time.

Fine I will go and find huge sticks and sharp rocks to make defensive spikes around my cave.

Alright, you bring back the supplies( +1 Strength) and you position them accordingly (+1 Reaction). You have about 10 yards of barrier left, and you decide to take a break for lunch. Suddenly, a Saber Tooth Cat comes through! Here's the situation: Your cave is up on a ridge, and the Saber Tooth cats are down a hill a little ways. The ridge is very rocky. *wink wink*

Push large boulders down and pelt them with smaller rocks.

OK, you let in the women, and in 2 days they are back in prime condition. Unfortunately, only two men come back, exhausted. The said that they found a cave, but it was the home of a large Saber-Tooth Cat. They said it was at the bottom of a hill, with a medium field separating it from a river. They said that they were able to cross the river, and they were pretty sure the hill was climbable. They reported plenty of rocks and large trees at the top of the hill. Tip: You can approach this several ways. Blunt force, cornering with spikes, toboggan drive by's, etc.

You crush one of the Tigers, but the other one dodges large boulders. Eventually one of your men hit it with a good sized rock, and it stumbles into a very small cave in the hill. What do you do?

OK, you do that, and it dies after 4 days. As you roll the rock out, you find that there is a small spring there. Would you like to experiment with this? Also, you practiced coordination and aiming skills that day. +2 to Reaction and +2 to Intelligence!

You search and search, and eventually you find a stream not too far from your cave. Rows and rows of wild berry bushes grow along the sides, and you accidentally drop a handful of berries in. Before they hit the water, 4 fish jump up and scramble to eat them(keep note of this, it'll help later on) You gain +1 intelligence from this find.
