Right, time to get to the showing off!

Step one: MILITARIZE as they've done thousands of times before! The pair clean off the rusty axe, resharpen it into functionality, and use it to clear-cut a smaller-than-the-entire-forest area. They then raise fortifications made of sharpened logs in the new clearing, build a watchtower in the center, and RAISE THE FLAG they brought because of course they brought their own flag. They then grab some of the planks and build a blockhouse and supply shed in the fort.

Step two: ACTIVELY PLUNDER as Fentiriss and Lukanios take out their crossbows and swords and begin massacring as much wildlife as possible, and then set to work fermenting some of the meat, drying some of it, and cooking the rest. Scurvy takes WEEKS to develop. until then, you'll be fine. The fermented meat probably has some C in it anyway.

Step three: PROVIDE WARMTH as the pair dig a trench most of the way around the fort some distance away (leaving a strip of ground on which to walk in and out of the fort) and begin dumping offal from the slaughter and the extra wood from the clearcutting into it, along with the omnipresent bones in the area. They then throw the dried and dead ground-plants into the trench and LIGHT THE WHOLE TRENCH ON FIREEEE! It's not going to burn the fort down because it's not inside, but now whichever way the wind blows, it'll be warm!

Right! Observe our pointlessly enormous effort and WEEP! Unless it all collapses, in which case WEEP FOR WHAT YOU HAVE LOST!

1. You both get your axe back into shape and you manage to clear-cut a small section of the forest. And taking the logs, you put together a nice watchtower, complete with flag. And you also got the blockhouse and supply shed with what you need inside it. Your so-called experiences serve you well putting everything together. (Rolled 7 and 1+ for a total of 8)

2. You both could have been a little more conspicuous as you slaughter some of the wildlife here. You all banter a little too much and that did alert some of the animals here as they wisely decide to avoid you all. Although you do manage to secure a decent amount of animal meat. And you've prepared it and cooked it to satisfy the tastes and the hunger. (Rolled 7 and 1- for your loudness for a total of 6)

3. You all manage to dig the trenches and put down all the plants, bones, dead animals and chopped up wood inside there. So seemingly you all have a good source to burn. But you all got careless when you set everything on fire. You all used a weak source of fire for it. It lasts for a bit until the fires eventually cool down. And now you have to deal with the unpleasant smell of burnt flesh and bone, although it does give off a nice aroma of wood in the otherwise disgusting smell. (Rolled 4 and 1- for carelessness for a total of 3)

FENTIRISS HALTEVAZHEN AND LUKANIOS DUVANSWEYLEND HAVE SCORED A TOTAL OF 17 POINTS.
I like bananas. They're yellow.
HA! Genius. Slaughter, ravaging, and we've got a trench for defense even if we don't have warmth. We're already surrounded by fire on all sides anyway, it's plenty warm.
I am the They who says it!
1.
"First looking for the logs and planks around here and try set up the shelter from them... if still need, cut a bit of tree for wood"

2. "Will set up the trap for catch any animals... then while wait and see later, will try to find fruit or other plant to eat!"

3. "Thinking cloak will do for now... My cloak is wrap around me for big and warm. Also putting up the small fire!"

3. "Thinking cloak will do for now... My cloak is wrap around me for big and warm. Also putting up the small fire!"

1. You find lot of logs and planks in forest. Move them into place, tire yourself out for overexert yourself. But shelter look good, should keep you secure. (Rolled 10 and 1- for lack of strength for 9)

2. High-tech device capture all types of animal. Plenty of meat for hunger. Lot of fruit to find, keep inside your shelter. (rolled 7 and 1+ for futuristic technology for a total of 8)

3. Cloak do keep you warm. But cloak overheat, become too hot. You take it off, suffer burn over your body and cloak break. Have to use fire to keep warmth. (Rolled 10 a 1+ for futuristic technology for a total of 11)

CATS HAVE SCORED TOTAL 28 POINT.
I like bananas. They're yellow.
Delilah ponders a while and then...

1. "A quick and easy shelter is probably best..." Delilah will find an area that has some trees close together. She will use vines, leaves, sticks, whatever she can find easily and lash and weave them together for a roof, and lash it between three or four trees. She'll do the same sort of technique to make walls, leaving one side open. For the roof she'll also put more large leaves on top in order to try to prevent things from getting into it.

2. "While berries and stuff are nice I don't trust knowing which plants are safe to eat, so I'm going to stick with protein. Namely, meat." She may be a bit tired from building a shelter, but she's going to do some hunting. Sharpen some sticks, light the ends on fire, and yeet them at anything that would yield enough meat for a few people. Deer, wild turkeys, jackrabbits, whatever. Hopefully this will get some good meat she can cook over a fire without tiring her out too much. Speaking of fire...

3. "Well, this is my specialty isn't it?" She'll dig a pit for a fire near enough to her shelter to keep it warm but far enough away not to light the shelter ablaze, keeping the dirt she dug out nearby in case the fire gets out of control. Then, she'll make a nice little pyramid in the fire pit of the driest sticks, leaves, etc. she can fine, conjure a little fireball, and light it.
Stupid doomed timeline...
"Hahaha! Now will keep food and safe... CATS says as he looks over everything he gathered.

"...Ow, no expect of cloak to sudden be THIS hot! Good thing remembering to bring more...."

1. Yeah, this isn't a total disaster at all. You suddenly feel huge gusts of wind that blow away every material you've conjured up, blowing the roof off the house before you even set up the house, tearing down the walls that you wouldn't even get to build. You've tried to salvage what you can, but damn the winds are too strong. You can't even keep them in your hands if you tried, they're that bad. Looks like you're screwed on shelter. (Rolled 2)

2. As bad as that was, your hunting experiences are even worse. You sharpen the sticks, but you end up cutting yourself on the ends several times. You'll find you have several nicks all over your hands. But still you try to make the best of it. You see some of the animals you want to go after and try to set your weapons on fire, but you lose control of your abilities and set yourself ablaze! You turn into a screaming human torch that scares away any animals you wanted to hunt. All you can do is run into the lake to douse the fire. (Rolled 2 and 1- for clumsy fire abilities for a total of 1)

3. That's the only thing here that goes half-way right for you. The winds die down and you make a pit, with some dirt and take the sticks and leaves and light it on fire. No shelter, no food, but at least you can keep yourself warm. (Rolled 6)

DELILAH HAS SCORED A TOTAL OF 9 POINTS.

"owwwwwwwww, god how did I fail that badly? Here I thought I had good ideas... ow ow ow..."

For now, CATS prepares and cleans a stick, puts meat and fruit pieces on it, and grills the skewer.

Abigail sighed.
"Hopefully I can sleep."
She headed back to her shelter. She attempted to sleep but the souls kept her awake.
"YoU dAmNeD bItCh..."
1. Look around the forest and find a place to make shelter for us. Use whatever equipment you have and make something. Or find something you can use to improvise. It can be from the various planks of wood around. Can be from the trees, or you can kill a few of the animals here. Whatever, just come up with something and make sure everything is all sturdy.

Xue gets up, grabbing vines to tie into a rope. Ropes were always good for shelter. When she's done making those ropes, she begins grabbling logs, getting Larson the Typhlosion to help carry whatever she can't pick up herself. She ties the logs together, creating what could work as walls to a shelter, and puts them up while using trees and other, diagonally set logs to support them. To make a roof, she puts the planks on top.

2. Search the area for some food. You can find berries or any kinds of fruit here. Just be careful you don't get any poison. Or you can can fish and hunt for something. Just make sure there's enough for everyone here.

Xue fucking hated scavenging, but she's at least had some practice with it. Using some of the rope she made in a previous step, she ties some worms she dug out of the dirt, and ties that to a long stick. Using that, she makes an improvised fishing pole. Whenever she gets a fish, she pulls it out...and orders Larson to hit it with a cold, ghostly flame to take it out. Perfect for consumption. She also looks for some berries and such, making sure not to find anything obviously poisonous. If she doesn't know, she puts some of the juice on a small patch of skin, and looks for a reaction. If there's no reaction, it must be safe to eat.

3. Find a way to keep yourselves warm at night. A fire or something makeshift that you find outside. Make some kind of covers or whatever. It's important to be secure, fed and warm during the night.

Xue gets a pile of sticks, and looks to her Pokemon.
"Larson. Use Flamethrower."
If all works well, that pile of sticks will become a wildfire.

1. Very well made. You managed to make sure everything is well secured with the ropes. You made the roof and walls sturdy. It must appear that craftsmanship is one of your secret gifts. Excellent work all around and Larson proves to be more than a reliable helper. (rolled 9)

2. Fishing goes pretty well. Sure, some of them prepare to fight you when you try to reel them in and you find yourself getting frustrated over it. But thankfully, it's not too much of a hindrance and you manage to reel them in with Larson frying them up. And you manage to pick out some berries that aren't poisonous, so that's good. (rolled 7 and 1- for stubborness for 6)

3. And it does go well. Unlike Delilah, who seemd to lose grasp of her fire abilities, Larson is more competent and you have yourself a nice fire. (Rolled 7)

XUE HIDAKA HAS SCORED A TOTAL OF 22 POINTS.
I like bananas. They're yellow.
"You should know that we know a thing about forests or two.:

"Mm, hm!"

1. The two will look around the forest to look for some wood and sticks. They could make a makeshift tent with those. Use those wood and sticks to make the support for the tent. For the roof, they need to find some large leaves.

2. Anya will go fishing in a nearby river for fish, while Elster will forage for fruits, nuts, and berries.

3. This is easy. Anya can gather up firewood, and cast her fire into the wood to make a campfire, which can also be used to cook the fish.
Hiiii!
Sinuhe returns, sure that the ghost is now gone. He notices that a challenge appears to be taking place and decides to join in.

It can be from the various planks of wood around. Can be from the trees, or you can kill a few of the animals here. Whatever, just come up with something and make sure everything is all sturdy.
Sinuhe finds some promising-looking tree trunks strewn around in a clearing. However, they're crawling with ants so he leaves them alone and carries on.

2. Search the area for some food. You can find berries or any kinds of fruit here. Just be careful you don't get any poison. Or you can can fish and hunt for something. Just make sure there's enough for everyone here.
Sinuhe's mind went back to this one time he went to some student exchange program thing in the Galapagos Islands. During the program, he was usually the one who cooked for the group, along with this other kid whose family owned a restaurant or something. However, he never caught any fish or anything. That was another kid's job. 
What now? 
"Guess I'll have to do this myself," he says, plunging into the river. A leech attaches itself to his leg, but he's too caught up in trying to catch fish to notice. Eventually, he manages to snag a couple of fish. The leech is still on his leg, but he still doesn't notice.

3. Find a way to keep yourselves warm at night. A fire or something makeshift that you find outside. Make some kind of covers or whatever. It's important to be secure, fed and warm during the night.
Sinuhe is used to sleeping rough, but just to be absolutely sure, he grabs some twigs and builds a hut. Or at least it's supposed to be a hut. It collapses barely even a second after he finishes. "Drat."

1. You decide to use your levitation power to gather the supplies while Elster gathers some himself. But as you bring everything to you, you actuall manage to smack Elster around with your sticks and wood in your haste to get everything to you. You really do a number on the poor bird as he tries to fly over to you to fetch everything else. You do manage to get the tent together, but you might want to give Elster some ice for his injuries. I'm sure that would be easy for you though. (10 and 1+ for levitation abilities for a scale-breaking score of 11)

2. You go fishing and you manage to gather a decent amount of fish. Elster goes on to gather all the fruits, nuts and berries he can find. He even flies by and snatches a few from Taira. Though he quickly gets out of there before she can notice you stealing some of her berries. But other than that, you got plenty of food to go around. (Rolled 8 and 1- for Elster's kleptomania tendencies for a total of 7)

3. You use you fire abilities to get the fire going and you cook the fish on it. But it's not the best tasting there is here. Oh well, at least you got some stolen berries to go around. (Rolled 3 and 1+ for fire abilities for a total of 4)

1. You initially walk by the tree trunks because it had ants on it right when you stumble upon a canister of ant poison that happen to be on the skeletal remains of an exterminator that came to the forest and got killed by the Witch. But you take it and use it to clear off all the ants. And now it is all yours for the taking. (Rolled 8 and 1+ for resourcefulness for a total of 9)

2. You wisely decide to go fishing and you cook the two you caught and eat them and it's the best fish you've ever tasted in your life. It's so good, you go back for more and you come back with a batch that's enough to run your own seafood restaurant in the forest. And the leech doesn't drain too much of your blood. You notice at the end and rip it off. (Rolled 9)

3. Your failed attempt at making a hut only leads to getting the attention of a grizzly bear that tries to attack you. But you wisely bolt out of the area and into the tree trunks, where you killed the ants earlier. The bear waits for you before eventually giving up. But at least you have a nice place to call home now. (Rolled 3 and 1- for your cowardice for a total of 2)

1. "We should use tree branches and planks of food to build small shelters, about the size of tents. We can use animal Hydes as blankets if we need them."
2. "Let's hunt for animal meat, using rocks attached to sticks as a weapon. If that doesn't work, we'll find fruit to eat."
3. "We'll use dead animal Hyde to make blankets. If we don't get any animals, we can start a fire for heat."

1. You're just a kid, a kid who's not strong enough to gather up all that material by yourself. You try but eventually you just get tired out from it all. Eventually you just give up in frustration. (rolled 4 and 1- for lack of strength for 3)

2. The rocks definitely work for the small animals like squirrels and raccoons. You decided it'd be worth it to stone a lot of them to death. Sure, it may not be something big like a deer. But you wisely decide that quantity is key in this case and bagged a lot of them. (Rolled 6 and 1+ for smarts for 7)

3. It would have probably help to try and de-sanitize the animal skin before making blankets out of them. You get your clothes all blood-stained from all of that and you decide it's just not worth it. And also you try hard and hard, but you just can't seem to start a fire. Maybe some of our more pyrokinetic friends can help out? (Rolled 1 and 1+ for smarts for 2)

Quinarva fixed the deer-killers with an icy glare. Stuck in the woods for three minutes and they were already taking it out on innocent critters! Suddenly, she felt much more justified in staying on the burned-shelter side of the river. Still, if Gene said they had to work together, they were working together. No if's, and's, or but's. 

1. Well, since she was a borderline wild animal to begin with, and could also shift into a tree, she usually just slept outdoors, shelterless. Unfortunately, no one else could simply shift into a tree. She decided to scope out, starting right on the fire perimeter-how did no one on the outside notice this border wall of fire?-and collect branches and stones, enough to form rectangles. With the stones as her foundation, she sets down the branches as close together as possible. She uses treesap to glue together a bark roof and fill in whatever holes are in the makeshift walls. Suitable enough for a mortal, hopefully. 

2. Sure, she is immune to plant poisons, but others not so much. She scopes the ground for more berries and nuts. She was sure that there were such things buried in the ground by squirrels, so she's sure to dig deep. She supposed she could bring back some meat...but ONLY if the animal was already dead. That isn't satisfactory? Well, she supposed she didn't have a problem with hunting fish. The pointy tips of her broken antlers could probably spear something! 

3. Luckily, there are plenty of dead leaves to work with. With her nymph magic, she makes grass and weeds grow long, clips them with her teeth, and uses them to weave the dead leaves into a blanket. Not as much to this strategy. 

If you hear about someone putting characters through intense despair and misery, then that someone is probably me.

1. You definitely put your all into it while making the shelter. You manage to do it with ease and you made yourself a nice, well-built and secure shelter. This should keep you safe from any of the outdoor dangers, even if you are used to that environment. (Rolled 7 and 1+ for strength for total of 8)

2. You attempt to search around for berries and nuts but as you try to collect them, you happen to stumble upon a raccoon who is feeling incredibly defensive over the bush and it lunges at you, biting and scratching you up badly. But you're not determined to go back empty-handed. You do indeed try to catch some fish at the lake, but there were a few piranhas waiting for you as they all got the scent of blood from your raccoon attack earlier and they all group on on you and bite you. They end up chasing you out of the water and you have to shake them off. You quickly leave the area, with no food to bring back. (Rolled 1)

3. Although this goes pretty well for you. You grow your grass and weeds and make a nice comfy blanket to keep you warm. And after the vicious animal attack you suffered, you really need to relax. (8)

I like bananas. They're yellow.
"Yipee. I have rabies now." The nymphs voice was monotone as she desperately tried to patch up her wounds.
If you hear about someone putting characters through intense despair and misery, then that someone is probably me.
This is a pretty Kelsenian climate for those Tropical fish. I guess you just really are bad at nature-doing, for a nature spirit of some kind if they came all the way from wheresoever your tropiclands are to go bother you.

I'd say it's the firewall that makes this place tropical, but it apparently gets cold enough to need warmth, so somehow I doubt that.
I am the They who says it!
"No, I just wanted to avoid hunting innocent forest animals. And this is the thanks I get." She growled.
