Who: Everyone and everyone who wants to go to the mainland
What: Party! ...Mainland scavenging party!
Where: Mainland
When: Beginning Saturday morning, and lasting until these people return to the island
Warnings: Oh yeah. Lots of nightmarish creatures inhabit the mainland.
Status: OPEN to anyone, but be reasonable. Not everyone is interested in going to the mainland.
Bonus: Because this is a kind of plot!thing, all logs within are worth 30 points. OOF bonuses will be awarded on top of that.
The mainland couldn't be seen from the island by anyone with normal human vision, but a map indicated it was about ten miles away. Mason had formed groups based on the people he had talked to a few days earlier. He wasn't thrilled about the whole thing, because it was entirely different from the sort of scavenging he was used to. But food and supplies were running low. Having a place to live and sleep safely was a good start, but that wouldn't keep people alive. Mason really didn't want to see people start dying...And it seemed the supplies they needed were over on the mainland.
He had a list of people who were going, and he made sure everyone was accounted for. He made adjustments as necessary, and hoped to bring back everyone he took out. He had no idea what they would encounter over there, and as they set sail for the mainland, he had no idea if he was leading this ship to certain death. With Death herself on board, he felt twice the apprehension, but it was necessary to try.
He stood looking out over the water thinking he should have done a recon before bringing everyone else. He should have checked it out. He should have made sure it was safe. Too late now, they were headed staight for the shore...and whatever awaited them there.
[OOC: There are top line posts for various events just to try and keep things somewhat organised within the post!]
