Stranded... out there

[stockingfeats]

Disaster. Your plane crashed, your boat holed, your guide has left you stranded in the depths of the wilderness. Certainly, your surroundings are beautiful in their way, but we all know that nature is long on majesty and short on mercy. And unlike those guys on the Discovery Channel, there isn't a Motel 6 around you can pop into.

1. Desert. Whether it's cacti and hardpan, or dunes and sidewinders, you'd better find an oasis fast. And take care... it gets cold at night.
   
2. Jungle. Ah, the rainforest, that thriving hotspot of biodiversity! ...and just as many toxic compounds as there are species.
   
3. Tundra. Doesn't matter if it's Farenheit or Celsius, the thermometer is too many digits in the negative. But hey, at least there might be penguins.
   
4. Mountains. You might be hungry and windburnt, but the view is unmatched. Watch that first step, it's a doozy!
   
5. Savanna. Lions and termites and baobab, oh my... Never mind looking for food, you might be food if you aren't careful. And stay out of trenches with too many wildebeest.
   
6. Deep forest. The woods are quiet, dark, and deep. Do you know how to tell edible puffballs from Destroying Angel? Better learn quick.
   
7. Deep space. Maybe the ship has lost its engines and is drifting towards nowhere fast, or maybe it's a space station long abandoned, but you know what they say--no one can hear you scream.
   
8. Island. Let's face it, it would be nice, if it had been your idea to be here. Where did the Swiss Family Robinson find all that stuff, anyway?
   
9. Motel. Never mind, there is a Motel 6. No, wait--Motel 5? Oh boy. You really wish they hadn't left the light on, because nothing it reveals is something you want to see.
   

Problems:

1. Weather: It's turning for the worse and you need a place to hide.
   
2. Hostile wildlife: Whether it's looking for lunch or wants you off its patch, this is going to be a problem.
   
3. No luggage ...or anything else, including food, water, or shelter.
   
4. Hurt: Perfect time to practice making splints out of sticks!
   
5. Other! Listen, it's a big world, it has lots of ways to make you miserable.

[oh my god I love it.
NOPE, setting and go! surprise me!

can you tell I'm excited to tag?]

[ Full disclosure, setting is high key inspired by the fact that I just finished playing The Long Dark. If you prefer a lost in space scenario, I'm open to that, too.

Trying not to be graphic but it's probably going to get a little bloody. Bucky is not Deadpool, but he's hard to take out.

(Although now I kind of want a line with Death and Deadpool. One thing at a time.) ]
