Okay, I'll get on making some traps, with the wonderful addition of poison from Lien
. Firstly, I craft myself a combat shovel, which is essentially a shovel on one end, and a shortened halberd on the other end.
Secondly, I craft a spear-deploying trap which launches a solid wall of 7-foot-tall spears into the ground when the bones are rattled (Which are impossible to get by without rattling, 'cause they're like hippie bead doors) the vines the bones are attached to shake and dislodge the spears, which triggers it. BUT! The spears' shafts are carefully roughened to have the same texture as shark skin, which means when you rub it with skin on any part of your body, it takes pieces of skin off, revealing the bare meat underneath and allowing for the poison-coating to flow into the delicious flesh with full effect. (Lien's poison goes onto the spears' shafts :wink
I spend all day making these, 'cause they're a b*tch to get that texture on
. Also, this spear wall acts like an actual wall when deployed, so even if they do get in, they can't get out with anything being carried, and... I can't imagine anyone being tossed over a 7-foot-high wall. So we have our security, and our deadly traps, and our capturing traps all set into one. Also, I can craft this many spears because they're very rough, with no killing point tips. They're one use only, but drive into the ground about 7-9 inches because of the height they're dropped from. So, if anything gets caught under them... It's skewered. The texture means they can't be climbed over either, without severely damaging any limb or body part that touches the wall... Tree leaves don't stand a chance, and due to the dual-sharpened-ends of the spears, any blanket-type thing thrown over the wall will just cut through and fall to either side of the wall, rendering it useless.
My third action, is to prepare an easily-deployable fire trap which activates off the spears, which are rubbed in the juices of that strange red berry Links found, which when we threw in the fire, we found to be unbelievably flammable. So, when, say, a torch is tossed onto the ground near the spikes/spears, the entire thing is set ablaze, and because our camp is just dirt from the tramping of our feet and our shelter is made of bone, we're safe from the fire... However, the jungle isn't, along with the Others' homes and camps. :twisted: BURN THEM OUT! (I do need someone to make the flammable coating for the spears' first foot of length though, as I've used up all my actions.)
Also, I eat and drink in between crafting my beautiful weapons. OH! And the spear wall is set only just before night, so that the group can take their actions without fear of... Spearing/poisoning/being set ablaze/general painful death. I'll leave it up to Lien to describe the (Hopefully) painful effects of the poison.
