Quille, watching and listening on her television, recognized the tune and knew immediately that she would sponsor this tribute.

I would like you to know that the following emoji represents a young, teenage male who goes under the pen name of Fadran laughing his scudding lungs out as he read this post.

Well, I was really happy when I read your post, and Quille needed a reason to sponsor Fadran. I saw an opportunity and took it.

     I break into a run after Experience, arrows whistling over my head, past me, hitting the ground around me. A feel one graze my side and I speed up, propelling myself through the woods in a sprint. I run until I am out of breath, then run some more. Then, exhausted and wounded, I kneel to the ground in a thicket of brambles and catch my breath. I had at some point strayed off of the path and had thus lost Experience. Wow, I think. They must have quite the archer on their team to be able to take such precise shots in quick succession and still hit at what was that? It couldn't have been less than 150 meters. I should probably wait for them to die off before I even consider any martial action against that group.

     Breath caught, I cut two rectangular pieces of cloth from my jacket, bandaging my deeper wounds which are still bleeding. I don't like ruining such a nice garment, but what other choice do I have?

Just quoting this to show the count on this page

Eric drops his hand. "I guess he left."

[Experience]

As Experience is running, he looks back and sees his opponent runnning towards him with arrows raining down around them. Experience turns his attention to a tree that is coming up in his path. He glances back and watches as an arrow hits his opponent, distracting them. He dashes around the tree then deftly climbs up the tree, hoping he's not seen. As he catches his breath, his opponent runs past, but Experience stays in the tree to let the pair of attackers to leave.

"Wind?" Eric says and runs over.

Ow! This never happened in the book” Wind mumbles. “ I’m fine Eric, let’s go back and get another bow and some more arrows, then you can help me! Wind starts walking back to the cornucopia.

Eric follows. "Fadran, we're back." @Channelknight Fadran

“Ouch, that is a one word description for everyone but Eric”

[Vapor]

"Uh, not well. We didn't kill them, but we injured one." Eric says.

[Wind]

“I could use some medicine, but Being optimistic is key,  it will start to rain medical supplies any second now.”

[Vapor]

Eric walks closer to the Cornucopia. "I really need a long distance weapon," he says, studying a bow and arrow. "And you need one too," he points out to Wind. "Yours broke in your face."

Isn't it anything food and water or below?

(A roll of 17-20 will let you send weaponry or medical equipment, 11-16 food or water, 6-10 useful tools, 3-5 other various items, and 1-2 nothing [which still uses up one of your rolls].) They can also communicate with their tribute two times, giving them information. This does not require a dice roll.

If it’s not too much of a bother would I be able to be tagged when signups for the next game start? 

Will do!

I’ll wait until next round. Can you tag me then? 

The all-powerful Ene says yep!

I believe we established last game that it was only the items in that category, not below as well. Unless we changed it and I just don't remember. 

OP list has been updated.

     I clime a tree near the bramble thicket entrance hoping that it will provide a safer hiding spot. I notice that I left a blood trail starting from where I had been shot and leading directly to the thicket's entrance, an area I had cut down with my sword in order to get onto the heart of the large bushlike condtruct of vegetation. The bandages had thankfully staunched the flow of blood and now the wounds are hardly bleeding at all. They still hurt like hell though, I think, grimacing as I pull my weight up on to the lowest branch, which is six of seven feet up the trunk already. It is a sturdy old fur and hardly quivers as I stand up on the branch and begin the laborious clime to the thickest part of the trunk. There are numerous branches once near the the centre and the clime becomes much easier. The dense walls of needles conceal me and shelter me from any rain, snow, or arrows that might fall from the sky. And despite the fact that the still air would make practically impossible long shots with a bow easier, it would indeed also allow me to hear anyone approaching from a long way off; There is virtually no movement in the branches and needles.

I really hope that this isn't your tree, @Experience

Wind grabs a bow at the centre of the cornucopia “Hopefully this bow works better.” Wind then mumbles something about “A bow” and “ his poor face”. Wind looks around and grabs two quivers of arrows,

With an appropriate amount of time would I be allowed to construct a wicker or pinewood pavis or reeds, pine boughs, sticks, or split logs held together with wooden pegs?

Can I send him something to help with a shelter? Or a shelter? A saw? Rope?

Eric sits down. "Do we want to go search for other tributes, or stay here?"

"Anyone who can't find food for themselves will have to find their way here eventually... I say we stay. No need to hunt down everyone else."
