Sweetcake 199 November 3, 2017 Share November 3, 2017 Suppose you are trapped on an island that has high potential for food and shelter, but you have to find your perfect tools and utilities in order to thrive in this land. Don't worry about water. There is place that has fresh water in the forest. You can see your boat slowly sinking after an accident that left you stranded. There is no way to fix the boat, but you have enough time to grab 3 items. What do you get? 2 "Nothing is sweeter than seeing you smile!" ~ Sweetcake (Info Here) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tumbledash 11 November 3, 2017 Share November 3, 2017 The three items I would grab (or more likely get stuck with) would be; A Multitool- because it'll give me the illusion of productivity A book- I have absolutely no focus or drive so i'd probably end up reading a book for a bit And thirdly, I'd go for A blanket- nice to cozy up with, because I have no doubts I'd barely survive on an island but I know i wouldn't be able to get a fire going on the first night there 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow Frostflame 3,568 November 3, 2017 Share November 3, 2017 Camping supplies: Stuff to make sure I don't freeze at night, and don't bleed out A rifle: I mean what American wouldn't bring a rifle with them to a deserted island An axe: to gather fire wood, or for when I run out of bullets 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catsle 604 November 3, 2017 Share November 3, 2017 A knife: to make sharp sticks A lighter: Makes fire starting a bit easier A book on living on deserted island, joking aside, I would bring a fishing toolbox, I could use the stuff in it to make different items 1 https://mlpforums.com/roleplay-characters/alamo-r7066/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan The Adorable 304 November 3, 2017 Share November 3, 2017 Compass: I've been lost in the woods before without means of telling direction. This is the most likely thing to make you dangerously waste time and energy in the wilderness if you have to travel at all to gather supplies. Flintstriker: Even providing I could learn to teach myself how to properly start a fire with primitive tools, something that instantly sparks for hundreds of uses is invaluable Hatchet: Could be used to gather resources quickly and help with shelter construction. I guess you could opt for a different blade depending on what kind of environment you needed to set up in, but I can't really think of anything I'd want over this combination. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerGeekGuy 4,662 November 3, 2017 Share November 3, 2017 (edited) Multitool: Best thing to grab that can be used to make other tools and help you get settled on the desert island. Some even come with magnifying lenses and tweezers, so it would be incredibly useful. A pan: I need something to cook and purify water in. Plus, if it's shiny enough, I can use it as a makeshift signal for help. Could also use it as a bludgeon if all else fails, though I run the risk of damaging it. A lighter: Although I could use other means to start a fire, getting warm and dry after being in the ocean is incredibly important. Plus, fire can be used to keep predators away, provide light, and make signals. Edited November 3, 2017 by TigerGeekGuy 1 "The place where you made your stand never mattered.

Yakamaru 3,127 November 3, 2017 Share November 3, 2017 Here's my 3 items I would use for survival: Knife. Most basic and most useful tool. A machete even better. Grenade launcher for fishing. I'm a lazy bastard. Otherwise a good gun for hunting. A solar panel with a small battery. Because you know, I wanna charge my phone so I can listen to music. While I butcher a rabbit. 1 “Discovery is dangerous . . . but so is life.

Feather Spiral 1,892 November 3, 2017 Share November 3, 2017 1) my smartphone (hopefully the battery isn't flat yet) in a plastic bag until I'm on dry land 2) satellite tranceiver (same thing) assuming there's no reception on the island 3) blanket for warmth (until help arrives at the location I describe) 1 I take writing commissions.

Bricks_Ahoy 860 November 4, 2017 Share November 4, 2017 I would grab another boat. There are no rules that state what you can't grab. So, I would take another boat. Also, I would take someone that knows how to drive a boat. Don't want to crash that one too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valeska 184 November 4, 2017 Share November 4, 2017 1. Magnesium Stick/ Striker - Better than a lighter or matches because it won't run out or need to be refilled 2. Blade - Many good uses for hunting, building, etc. 3. First Aid Kit - Need to keep my health a top priority or everything else I do will be pointless 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Techno Universal 2,575 November 8, 2017 Share November 8, 2017 My massive five meter long cape that's also like a massive blanket. A battery powered satellite phone unit. And an axe.

IronM17 5,399 November 9, 2017 Share November 9, 2017 I guess the first thing I would take with me is a knife because I would need it as a tool and also as a weapon if I must protect myself of what ever. A first aid kid would be also good. And I guess the third thing would be a lighter (even better a storm lighter) because I would need time to learn how I make fire and the lighter would bridge the first days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feather Spiral 1,892 November 9, 2017 Share November 9, 2017 It's funny how everyone is preparing to survive on the island.

Nerdy Luigi 2,065 November 10, 2017 Share November 10, 2017 (edited) An absurdly bright flashlight (So I can use it to signal the mainland. Probably wouldn't be far away.) A knife (Using to write an SOS signal, and perhaps get food if I have to wait long enough.) A book (So I can read for the duration of my short wait.) I'm assuming it wouldn't be far away in my case because I have a fear of deep water. Edited November 10, 2017 by Nerdy Luigi 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparklingSquirrels 21,354 November 10, 2017 Share November 10, 2017 (edited) I would hate to be stranded there so I'd take anything that could help get me off the island.

Gabriel 560 November 10, 2017 Share November 10, 2017 (edited) A pack of cigarettes, spare underwear and an assault rifle, preferably a loaded one.
