You wake up from the bed you commandeered from this Fire-watch tower you found near a summer-camp. You get out of bed and put on your boots, They have fur linings with leather outsides and they're steel toed. You stand up and stretch, walking you your hiking bag you set at the foot of the bed, you look in it for some breakfast until something catches your eye, an old child's book you found in a toy chest inside an old apartment. The title reads "You're SPECIAL!" you flip through the pages, it's an interactive pop-up book sorta deal. You pull the tabs to where you see fit.

((Now, what you do here is set the character's s.p.e.c.i.a.l. attributes.))

((It's not an rp mango, interactive story))

Search the tower for loot. Afterwards, use it's elevated height to scout the nearby area.

The day before...

   You were running away from a small group of cannibal hunters, you were caught releasing their human cattle. You were running until you tripped and fell into a small bank of snow, you saw a corpse nearby, it's skin was frost-bitten and blue, in it's hands was a rifle; your rifle. You walked up and took it. You took a closer look at the corpse, it had a tattered small messanger bag and tattered clothes. you looted the bag which contained a box of shells, a tin of ravioli, and a box of cornmeal. You hear a distant crunching of snow, they're getting closer. You ready the rifle and try the find a vantage point. That's how you found the fire-watch tower, you picked them off one-by-one with the rifle you found.

   You scavenge the Fire-watch tower, there was a small table with a pair of chairs in the center, a bunk-bed on the southern wall, a large wardrobe-style cabinet with nearby smaller cabinets on the northward walls, a wood-stove in the same place as the cabinets, and a fridge in the kitchen area. You find a can of pie filling, an aucoustic guitar with a large leather strap, bed an old fur hat with some holes in it, an empty thermos, an old, dented, canteen, a full water jug, a box of flour, a lighter, a storm lantern, a leather satchel, a bag of beef jerky, and a can of beans.

   You go out to the outside area of the Tower, you take a quick scan of the area, to the north there's the corpses of the cannibals you took out yesterday and the cannibal camp from the fire trail in the sky, to the east you see some houses and buildings, to the south you see a fire trail, must be the human cattle you freed, to the west you see nothing but trees and snow.

I'd say save the guitar and break up some of the chairs first, if they are made from wood that is. if you lean a chair on their two front legs, hold the head of the chair in your hand, and put your weight on the back of the seat with your foot, a standard wooden chair will break into three neat pieces.

We should also check the cabinets, and getting something to use as a carrying strap for our new water jug might be a good plan. You can only hold so much in a messenger bag. How do the strings on that guitar look? maybe take the guitars strap to use for our rifle too. speaking of the rifle, how does it look? make, model, caliber?

It is a Yao Guai, not Yao-Gui.
