The hunting group consists of the players of Zak, Lex, Yusaki, Erika, George, Sabre, Koorie, and Cadence. If you have not signed up with a group, please go to the main ORP thread and randomize a group.
____________________________________
Together, the stranded travelers made their way to the site where they were going to build their camp. The hunting party had to trek past the oasis to the deeper part of the jungle, but first, they needed to drop off their belongings and only bring the necessary equipment required to hunt. It was going to be a far walk. You hope everyone remembers where to go.
The area around the oasis consisted of tall grass, palm trees, low shrubs, and berry bushes. The plants appeared to grow out of the sand, but there was probably dirt underneath for the plants to stabilize themselves in the shifting desert terrain.
(( Sample image. The oasis in the RP has a lot more tall palm trees. ))
(( Bring a weapon, or tools to make a trap. Don't forget the bait! All rolls require an RP post with it to count. ))
Part 1. Traveling. Randomize between 1-2 to travel! You will need 16 twos as a group to make it to the oasis. Keep a count of successful rolls at the bottom of every post. Just for this part, you will need to wait until ONE other person posts before you can post again.
Part 2. Hunt. You can either use a weapon or dig a trap. You may keep rolling and do not need to wait for others to post. Keep a count of successful meat gathered at the bottom of every post. To make it through the night and into the next day, the hunting group will need 23 (one for everyone active in the group) successful rolls. If more active people join in this portion of the event, you will need 1 per person to make it through the night and into the next day.
Using a weapon: Roll two 6-sided dice. If your total is 7, you got a successful kill!
Using a trap: Randomize 1-10! There are plenty of rattata and buneary to hunt. 1. Animal doesn't fall for your trap. 2. The animal comes by, but your trap doesn't go off. 3. Your trap springs, but the animal escapes. 4. Successfully trapped an animal! Go ahead. Slaughter it. 5. You spot a pokemon! Pokemon sightings only count for you. This one is different than other rattata that you have seen. It has longer fur. You decide not to kill it. 6. While setting up the trap, something or someone stole your bait. 7. You have trouble setting up the trap. 8. One of your group mates scares the animal away. 9. You forgot the bait. 10. You sprung your own trap. Call for help! Someone in your group need to post and save you before you can roll again.
If your group is done hunting (or if you want to ditch your group), you may choose to help out another group. Make an exit post in this thread to go back to camp (main ORP) and then make another post in the ORP to exit to another group.

Ugh... camp. Lex swung down his pack and separated the fruit and bagels from his bag. Bait would be needed. He also removed a small pocket knife, slipping it into his boot. Clothes, drawing pad, lip balm, quiwk-stop and wet wipes. Anything else... not really.
"Think that is all Hollin."
Hollin nuzzled into his trainer the Cottonee giving a soothing coo and wiggled, eager to get a move on.

"Alright lets head on out." Zak spoke, he glanced to Phrixus, "You ready to help out?" he questioned the Houndoom. The creature gave a soft growl back indicating he was ready to go. "First we need to get to were we need to go, the Oasis if I remember correctly." Zak glanced around trying to find the one who had copied the Captains Map, more or less looking for reassurance if his statement was correct.

Erika stumbled slightly, but Blaire caught the woman before she could fall.
"Sorry, Blaire, still kind of hammered."
The scyther shook her head dismissively.

In order to move this along, I've changed the number of people required to post before you can post again from three to two in part 1.

George looked at his compass that he brought with him to see which direction they should be heading in. He looked around for Koorie and nodded in the direction that they should be heading in. The group was on the basic track to where they needed to go.

Their group was getting together, and on the move. As they walked Phrixus kept up with Zak's pace keeping in step with his trainer. The two had fallen silent as it seemed like everyone else did.

Lex sighed and scooped up his cottonee for better time. Hollin wasn't the quickist mover. He flickered his leaf wings, relaxing.

Erika tugged slightly at the top of her jacket to fan herself as Blaire walked beside her.

They walked in silence for a while before Zak decided to break it trying to make conversation with the rest of his group. "So" he began, "How has everyone's trip been so far?" he questioned trying to get a conversation started. Silence just wasn't him. Even traveling alone he and his pokemon would make light chatter.

"Wellll, our balloon dropped from the sky, and before that was a massive flock of Pidgey's who might have gotten sucked into a turbin and took our the massive if awesome airship." Lex paused, amused.
"I have to say it has been... ooh, what is a polite way to put this?"
Hollin snorted, giving a lout "Cot."

George smiled at Zak as he tried to break the ice. "Honestly Zak, almost exactly as I thought it would go. You know these trips never go as advertised so I came prepared." He patted the large hiking backpack on him. "All we need now Team Rocket to show up and it will be exactly as I expected."

Yusaki scrambled to keep up with the group, puffing a little with the exertion of catching up. Behind her, Korou dutifully plodded along, ears pricked up to keep an ear out for any dangerous sounds.

"Did you go on the cruise then?" Lex asked, remembering faintly something on the flyer about a previous trip. He had not been around the area then. He sighed and brushed a finger through his curls.

George shook his head, "Nah, I didn't go on that one but I had heard of it and gone on the hike to see the legendary pokemon. Ended up being completely fubared." He checked over his compass and map to check to see if they are going in the right direction.
