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.

I will start to make a type of toboggan like thing that attaches to 3 deer to pull me to the river that I was told about earlier that has the slow, large fish.

OK. The toboggan thing you make is big enough to carry 2 people, 5 turns of food, and one to two pieces of technology/material and travels at a walking pace.
You can also have it carry just food or just technology.

Anyway, you get to the river and you start spearing some fish. Although these things are slow, they learn quickly, staying away from you. You did get 3 more turns of food, though.

OK. You bring everything back, and set off towards the forest.

After about an hour of traversing, you see a very large clearing of trees in the distance. What would you like to do?

I will see if there are any downed trees and if not I will go hunt something with fur.

You find out that there are no downed trees, but it is a large body of water! It even has an island a few yards out that has a large cave and plenty of berry bushes on it.
UPGRADES
Canoe: Can carry 2 people and 3 turns of food at a time. Requires Intel 13 Reaction 14.
Can build one canoe each turn; can not do any other actions beside this.

I gain the stats now right? Every 3 turns?

It was 1 intel, 1 react, and 3 strength?

I will now search the pond/lake for fish.

Actually, it was +1 Strength.
Anyway, after about a half hour, you find a nice little cove that is fed by a stream. It has a dense population of fish, and all of them are very stupid. You get 5 more turns of food! You get +2 Intel from the discovery of the lake, island, and cove.
Note: I think you have enough food for now, so you can focus your time on other problems.

Yay, I get upped stats! I will start searching for stones such as flint and obsidian to make spear tips out of.

OK, but first you have to go to a place where you could find stone. There is a mountain range that is 3 1/2 hours walk away, so you would have to camp there if you go. Would you like to do this?
FYI I probably won't post for a day or two because I'm really busy tomorrow...

OK, I will wait until sunrise, pack up 3 turns of food and another man and head off while being pulled by my deer.

OK. After about 3 hours, you get there. You are next to a cliff that looks as if it holds flint and obsidian. First, you have to find or make something to get the small piece of rock out. What do you do?
UPGRADES
Pickaxe: Intel 13, Strength 8, Reaction 14


Note: As you increase your speed, you will be able to get from point A to point B more quickly, and you can carry more things at a time.

I will go back to my cave and try to build my strength. (No use if I can't use the pick.)

Well, you can try and get some rocks, but you will get 2 a turn instead of 10 a turn with the pickaxe. For the pickaxe, you also need to carve the bone of a T-Rex and find something as the handle.

Anyway, to train your strength and reaction, you throw a rock around with some of the children. +1 Reaction, +1 Strength.

You only need a little intel now...
So try and explore the woods. I would recommend trying different plants for different uses.

I will find some tall grasses to weave into pillow cases and stuff them with soft materials.
