A plane crashes near an island will the survivors call it home or will they fight to leave

2,043 readers have visited Surviving Isolation since wheezymcgee created it.

Introduction

Synopsis

A plane crashes on an Island in the Pacific. Its a large island with cliffs hills valleys and even a small mountain. The island is home to many animals and including leopards, boars, and many other dangerous things. The survivors were all on a plane from Los Angeles to Tokyo. The storm that brought the plane down threw it off course about 500 miles but not before all communications were cut. So rescue will take a while if they are found.... On the Island The survivors will come across Some ancient ruins from a tribe that lived there a long time ago. In these ruins a room full of gold and treasure lies. The survivors now have a choice, Will they stay on the Island with the gold and wait for help that might not arrive Or will they forget about the treasure and do what ever it takes to get saved and stay alive? Eventually opinions will be made and lines drawn, possibly things will end in savagery. But will it come to that?It is time for you to decide.

This is a survival roleplay for people who want to make a character that is a survivor. They can build a shelter, interact with other survivors, explore the ruins, make weapons or try to get off of the island. Survivors can be from all sorts of different backgrounds, races, religions, different jobs. I would like to see a variety of people. As far as guns go, I think there won't be any, just to make tings more realistic and interesting.

Once Kalena finally knew what was going on she decided that she wanted to be a part of the journey. If she got off of this island alive she could write about what they went through. She would need to go on these journeys and explorations so that she would have the experience in her own way, rather than having one of them tell the rest of the survivors what they saw or anything that happened. Of course Kat would make a new story about it, but people will definitely what more than one side of the incident. Maybe this story would be a big hit, and she would make lots of money from selling it too!

Yes, yes it IS all about the money, but only because she needed it to help her family in the Philippines. Her father was sick, and they couldn't afford to get him the medical stuff they needed to take care of him. They were barely able to send her to college in the States, too. Kalena told her family that if she became an author, she would give 50% of her profit to them.

The girl started to tear up, but she held the tears back. What good would it be to just start randomly crying? Kalena stood up and brushed the sand from her shorts. "Is it too late for me go with you?" She walked over to the small group. "I don't have any supplies except this bag. If we find somethings we can keep it in here." Kalena adjusted the light bag's thick strap across her shoulder.

Walter


Those left at the beach had a dejected, aimless look about them. It was not a health look. People in times of stress, if they had no purpose, could be lost to desperate inner thoughts.

Walter did not know exactly what to do. He was not keen on going into the sunken plane himself, and did not want to risk the lives of others. Yet there might be some kind of equipment there. Maybe a radio or a satellite phone. That might be worth the risk.

He spoke first to Davin.

“Maybe some of this fish will sit with you better than the fruit.” He gestured to the fish Kalena had brought back, “It’d be good for you.”

He looked to the others now.

“Maybe someone here can cook it up, I’m more of a barbecue man myself,” he smiled, “Anyone good with fish? And, if someone wants to try their hand at fishing, maybe get us a few more to fill out this meal. Those do look a little meager to feed us all."

Some eyes perked up, hopefully pulling them out of whatever dark places they’d gone to in their minds.

“And I think I might take some of Andrew’s shoot and set up those rain catches I was talking about. If the last four days are any predictor, we are going to get another rainstorm here in a little while, and I want to see if we can get capture some of that water.”

He looked to those around, waiting for volunteers. That would be a good place to start - get people thinking about their own survival, get them out of their heads and get their hands working. Once they were moving about, they could make a plan about how to search a sunken plane.

Shawn's eyes peeked open when Walter began talking about rain catchers. At least one persons got the right idea. He gave a yawn and a little stretch and stood up, he may still be healing but he could do small things to help out.

“I’ll help,” he said walking over to the campfire “I know I can’t put much strain on myself. But,” he shrugged “If I have to sit on my ass any longer, i’m gonna lose my frickin’ mind.” He hadn’t done anything since the crash and hated it, back home he was always busy and in a way this place was relaxing, but that could only last so long. Although he was wounded he wasn’t going to be a burden and this was going to be his way of showing it. “Just tell me whatcha need.”

Doug allowed a smirk as Ray said this. He nodded then followed as Ray lead them into the Jungle, he held his 'spear' tightly, not knowing whether he would need it or not. Of course there had to be something dangerous on the island, and he wanted to be prepared for when it decided to strike. In their small group it was Ray, him, Andrew, Kelena and Kat. He didn't think much of anyone, all he knew was that Ray was probably a good guy and Kat was an annoying big mouthed bitch. He made sure everyone was following, looking around at all the tree's and plants, I hope someone knows what to do with these. He thought to himself. The only noise was the quiet snapping of twigs as they continued on their way.

Andrew trudged along the pathway, pushing past leaves and limbs, and bugs. Was that a scorpion? He just shrugged it off and kept walking. He had no idea who these people were. He had been here for four days, and he hadn't really talked to too many people. Maybe he could try and talk now. It would probably be a life-saver to have some friends in this island.
"So, uh, I guess while we're walking, we could talk about something. Like, what did you guys do before we crashed. Or, in some cases, still doing."
Yaaayy. Small talk.
Andrew had been wondering why he hadn't seen any animals yet. Not that he wanted to, they were likely deadly. He just wished he could be back home. He began to have regrets over his selfish decision to head to Tokyo. More money, he had thought, even though he had already had enough playing for the Bears. Look where that got him.
Andrew sighed and just waited for the others to say something.

Ray watched as Kalena joined up with them. He then continued into the jungle. It was a lot more humid now that there was a tree canopy above them and and the sound of their walking and trees were the only thing to be heard. They were quite the rag tag group of people. They walked for what seemed to be about 2 hours, when the came across a small clearing. A small rock formation came out of center and a small stream of water came trickling out of the side and back towards the trees. " I guess we can take a break here, he said looking back to his companions. He panned his eyes around the area. "we'll take a ten min-" His words stopped when his eyes spotted the skeleton that was sitting against a nearby rock. A very old looking spear was lodged through the ribs and into the ground beneath the corpse.

Ray approached it to get a better look. Judging by the clothing, and the spear, The skeleton was from long time ago, a few hundred years at least. He looked back at the others and signaled them over to him.

Doug looked at Andrew "I was a PE assistant, how about you?" He asked, next Ray motioned for them to come over by him. "Holy shit..." Doug noticed the skeleton, then immediately noticed the spear. "Yo man, mind if I take the spear? I can throw them quite well" He said, Javelin throwing was one of his favourite sports. Doug waited for an answer, he really wanted that spear, it was clear that with that he may well be the deadliest of the lot, he had knelt down by Ray waiting for the answer, licking his lips and wiping some sweat from his brow. He looked at the spear, old but lethal. "Do you think whatever killed him is still on this island then?" He suddenly asked, balancing himself on the rock as he knelt. He reached into his bag, pulling out a protein bar, he munched on it noisily, he turned to the others. "Want any?" He asked.

Andrew replied back to Doug. "Baseball player for the Bears. I made some pretty good money." Andrew was stopped in his tracks at the speared skeleton Ray had shown. "Gah, what the fuck?!" He stepped back away from the completely rotted corpse, and began to frantically look around. "You'd think if there was any civilization that this'd be gone. Looks pretty old." The skeletal system stared upwards with it's cold and soulless eyes. Andrew knelt down beside of the corpse and studied it a little bit. The clothes on it were old, and the spear looked old too. "I am not liking this. Not one fucking bit."
Andrew looked at Doug with his offer of a protein bar, but refused. "I don't really want a protein bar at the moment. Or any food at all." He stood up and tightly clutched his bat.

Jerry hadn't washed ashore with the other survivors. Jerry had been pulled further out to sea by a random current, only to be brought back to shore miles away from the others. It had taken him days of what was, in all honesty, probably mostly aimless wandering to get to where he was now, which was standing at the edge of the camp, looking surprised but relieved. "Holy shit dude, people! Hahaha, I'm not alone!" he said, trotting into the camp.

“Well, Shawn, I think first we build some kind of frame or stand,” Walter scratched at his head, then held his hand out in front of him as if shaping an invisible object, “something to hold the shoot open so it can catch water. I’m pretty bad at that sort of mechanical planning, but if we had a good knife you might be able to work something up with these branches.”

He looked at Shawn, still hunched over slightly from the pain of the wound, “But maybe you should enlist a helper or two so you don’t strain too much and pop those sutures.”

He stopped. Everyone’s eyes had shifted behind him, staring at something farther down the beach. Walter cranked around and saw a man walking briskly towards them. He was a large young man, and looked equal parts exhausted and ecstatic.

"Holy shit dude, people! Hahaha, I'm not alone!

Walter’s face split in a wide smile and he rose to his feet. He took a few steps forward and reached out an arm to take the man’s hand.

“No, you’re not alone. I’m Walter, who are you?”

Kalena was going to answer Doug's question, but she was interrupted by his and Andrew's curses. "Well, we are on an isolated island. There probably was some tribe that live here many many many years ago, so this could be what's left of one of them." Kalena observes the skeleton. "It could also have been the skeleton of a pirate who found the tribe. Maybe he was attacked by them. The spear looks hand made out of maybe one of these trees. I don't think that there is anything on this island to worry about. Well, unless the people have sacred temple thing which might be guarded with traps and stuff. She knew they probably didn't want a history lesson. "Sorry about that. I worked at a library back in San Diego, and in my spare time I would read books about pirates and stuff. I just thought that to be very fascinating." She looks at the ground a bit embarrassed.

Shawn smirked “Well, that’s where we’re in luck; I was a mechanic back in San Francisco so i’m good with my hands, and for those branches,” he said reaching into his back pocket and grabbing a hard handle “I can handle that.”Clicking a small button a blade appeared a slight glint of sunlight shining off.”I always have it on-” he trailed off looking behind Walter.

"Holy shit dude, people! Hahaha, I'm not alone!" A plumb young man said clumsily making his way into camp.Closing the blade with his leg Shawn just looked on as Walter went and greeted the new survivor.

“Where the hell’d you wash up?” he asked slightly squinting from the suns glare.

"Uh, Jerry. Jerry Adler." he replied to Walter, accepting the handshake. And to Shawn, "Man I dunno. Like...a couple miles uh...that way?" he said, pointing with his other arm in the direction he had come out of the woods from. "But dude, you guys have an actual camp and stuff huh? That's cool. Hey, any idea when they're gonna come rescue us?" he asked nobody in particular, looking around optimistically.
