Pooja, Hunter-Nomad

I ran away from this pretty big town I was born into at about the age of 15. Some old woman wanted to play a game with dice, where the person who rolled a lower number got stabbed. I won, and reluctantly stabbed her. I realised how crappy the town was. There were three murders in my life, only one was killing a griefer, the rest were gambling bets. Plus the town was in a complete mess, everything was dying.

So I changed my mind and decided to just become a nomad. Who knows, I could find another town.

In the end, the only sign of civilisation was a dead Eve camp a short walk away. I grabbed three arrows, my knife and a carrot to continue my foodchain. Then I just left.

There were many bears around town from long gone griefer babies. I took them all out, but just left the skins I cut off lying there with the body. I could tell how far I was getting, just by seeing the reduced amount of human interaction. Fewer carrot seeds, no bears, and fewer animals reproducing. I must've walked a bit further than 1k away from town, considering I wasn't going in one direction the whole time. I did leave incomplete snowmen along my path of wildlife slaughter, as a sort of landmark.

The whole life was just exploring and shooting tons of animals. It was awesome, and I left skins and such on all the animals as evidence that I passed through. I think my motive was also to leave a mark across a wide area in hopes of people finding me or my town, or at least the remains. Let me know if anyone actually came across these snowmen, or dead turkeys next to Bison, or geese lying limp in their ponds.

Re: Pooja, Hunter-Nomad

I was creeping around on the family tree page trying to get pics of the new skins when I saw your death there, briefly thought "Ah, someone was named poo again. Didn't get the new skin." big_smile

When I go out to make an outpost, I try to leave a string of landmarks like piled stones and flat rocks for others, just in case they follow it to my haven. Usually it's there to point the direction, not the whole way.
But yeah sometimes it is therapeutic to just set out in hopes of some discovery. It's interesting to look at the RNG system generating some cool and less cool stuff, I tend to take some notes of the environment and how it tends to generate the world. Usually it's bad, sometimes an awesome spot is littered with bear caves, sometimes you find the most amazing spots... Rarely anyone living though.
I still hope that one day, as I aimlessly wander around the world, I'd stumble upon an Eve and help her as an "Adam" to see how big of a deal it'd be to have an adult male as a helping hand in fresh starts.
