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:

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.

You go back to the log and all you see on the way there is a very strange animal, which had the back end of an elk and whose front end was scaly, with a big plate behind the head. You wanted to watch it more, but night would soon fall and you needed to bring back the food. You do this, and have to run for 3 miles on the way home because the sunlight was about to go out. You come home, and after the excercise, you have +1 Speed.

You finished the defenses, and you finally wake up at dawn to go hunting. You perch up in a tree, and you shoot the largest male of them all. (you have food for 2 rounds) Later that day, after having feasted for a short while, a small group of nomads come by. They have strange pieces of leather attached to animal tendons, and they show how to use them to launch rocks at a very fast speed. You are intrigued by this, and you show them your bows. You trade 3 extra bows in your posession for 4 new pouch-launchers. (after 3 turns of using them, your Inteligence and Reaction will go up 1 each) Also, I changed your Reaction because you finished with bow training.

OK, you get extra fish which will last you 4 turns. One day, when taking a break from taming the tiger, you try fishing in the river. After an hour, you are about to give up, but then you catch the biggest fish your family has ever seen! You tell your family of this discovery, and they feel they want to move to a second cave near the Tiger's cave once the Tiger is tamed. If you do this, you will have enough room for your family and your technology downhill, and your sons and the new women can live up over the ridge. Would you like to do this?

You find enough web and vine to make 3 nets. Would you like to make them now?(you can make things and use them in the same turn, unless otherwise noted)

You make the net and you catch 7 good sized fish! You call it a day, and roast the fish on a fire. (you have food for 2 turns) One day, a group of about a dozen big, burly hunters come by. They have spears, bows, and slings. They see you collecting fish, and they come over to you. They smile and pat you on the back. They seem like they are showing some respect for you. You offer some of your fish, but they refuse and instead give you enough food for a week! They also give you a spear(+1 strength) bow(+1 reaction) and a sling(+1 speed +1 reaction) You thank them in the only way you know, and that is to shake their hand. They start doing this with you, and soon they are on their way. (after 4 turns of training, you will be prepared to hunt with all of your weapons)
Well, I decided to take pity on you. So what. It'll only get harder from here. I'll let you get some of your stats up, but you'll soon face a natural disaster that will force you to leave. So stock up on food and technology, you're going to need it.
AND FOR ALL CURRENT PLAYERS!!! I will occasionally award a random person with some new piece of technology each day. This will be random, as I do Eeny Meeny Minie Moh. So don't expect anything.

I will send some people out with bow and pouch launchers to hunt and others to search for rivers with fish in them.

Alright, you have one more turn until the tiger is fully trained. It takes 2 turns to move somewhere.

OK, how many people do you send? And how many people are hunting and how many looking for rivers?

Wait, shouldn't I already have fully tamed the tiger? That was the third turn I've spent trying to tame it. Unless your not counting the turn where I caught the gigantic fish, which would make sense. Either way, finish training that Tiger! :P

OK, do you want to move? And if so, would you like to move your supplies in two trips (two turns) or make a leather harness(1 turn) and then put it on the tiger to bring your stuff(1 turn)? Or something completely different that I haven't thought of?

OK, after 4 hours, 2 men come back with a full elk. 2 hours later, 2 men come back with some Saber Tooth Cat meat, and right after 2 men come back and talk about a river that has long, quick fish which is in a valley a few miles away. 2 more men come back and talk about a stream that feeds into a small lake with fish whose mouths are wider than their body which is about 5 miles of forest away. The last man comes back and says that he spent some time at a creek not too far from your cave that has a fairly good population of a fish that is large and moves very slowly, even when attacked. He says that it is over a rocky hill, though, and the terrain was fairly tough. What do you do?
Name:Grog Family Name:Ugtakalaka Family Size:15 Members Family Home:A field with a few caves. Height:6' Weight:170 Weapon:Hands Strength:5 Speed:6(+1) Intelligence:9(+1) Reaction:10(+2)
I go out and use a sling to knock out as many tiny deer as I can. You'll see what I'm gonna use 'em for later.
Name:Grog Family Name:Ugtakalaka Family Size:15 Members Family Home:A field with a few caves. Height:6' Weight:170 Weapon:Hands Strength:5 Speed:6(+1) Intelligence:9(+1) Reaction:10(+2)
OK. From the meat you have now, the elk and saber tooth meat will sustain you for 5 rounds and the tiny deer meat will last you for 8. *waits for what he's gonna do*

I'll go for the make the leather harness option.
(I'm not gonna add the stats from the tiger, as I don't know whether to put them as bases, or in the parantheses, or to add another line that says 'inventory/technology'
