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.

Since I have time and food now, I guess I'll first try hopping on one of those logs, but trying to stay close to the shoreline in case I fall off and I can get off any time.

OK, after storing your food and bringing some along, you go ahead on the log. You float down for about half a mile, until you see a 20 foot long series of drops, then very turbulent water after that. What do you do?
P.S. You have 2 minutes to act before the current takes you to the point of no return.

OK, you jump off of the log but leave the beloved VCR set and your collection of Disney Movies on the log. You watch as it is destroyed and your things are lost...
Good news: You survived, and you are on the side of the river you live on.
Bad news: You have a half mile to cover, and there is a fairly large group of Saber Tooth to your right.
What do you do?

OK, you get two deer with your bow, and you have food for 3 turns. What now?
Tip: Exploring and causing general mayhem in the wilderness can lead to events that up your stats. A good way to up your strength would be to move heavy objects, and build barriers.

Why always the saber tooths?! They are starting to get on my nerves. Anyways, just follow the river back upstream, making as little as sound possible so I don't alert the tigers.

You do that, and when you are 50 yards from your cave, you see that on of the tigers has followed your trail. What do you do?
Right now, you have only your knife as a weapon. If you run back and get a weapon, you might have enough time to get from the tiger.

I want to take it's body apart. Store the meat in wrapped leaves, lay the skin out like a rug, use the leg bones as clubs (good since fast animals have hard but lightweight bones), and throw the guts out 2 miles away, so no animals track us back to our home.

OK, you store the meat(food for 3 turns) and you tie some rocks on the ends of the bones, resulting in a club/hammer thingy.

OK, you start moving towards a rocky, hilly area a few miles from your cave. You search around, and eventually see two Tyrannasaurus Rex about to duel!
Since they are fighting, they will want nothing to do with you, so you can pretty much do anything you want except attacking them and they won't care at all.

I want to lead the four men in my family on a hunting expedition for more elk, so that we could make a nice, soft carpet(I smell refurbishment coming up )

It's basically just them headbutting and tailswiping until one of them collapses unconscious(rendering them vulnerable) from exhaustion. Then the other one says, "RAWRZ!" and runs away.

OK, you get 4 elk and you bring home all the furs. You have enough food for 6 turns. What do you want to do now?
Tip: Now that your food supply is in good condition, try and get up your speed and strength by running and making barriers and structures. Although intelligence is very important for early man, it is always good to have some muscle involved as well.

Your family immediately gets up from their chores, realizing something is wrong. Your pet sabertooth(let's call him Joe, ok?) starts to approach the other sabertooth. You can either see if your cat wins, or help him out and shoot the other tiger before too much of a mess is made.
