Awaken by the chill breeze that brushed through his ears, Ra wake up from his slumber. And while the day has start with a hazy mist in the far corner, Ra was not in any mood to strike a convo today. His sleep was the not good. He woke up at least 3 times over the duration of his sleep, either in fear of an attack, or just because of the unevenness of the ground that kept him changing his posture every ten minutes or so.
And with a little wince, Ra twisted himself, hearing the moaning of his skeletal as he got himself out of bed. He didn't know how long they could have last in the wild. Maybe three days? A week? A month? But one thing for sure, he probably won't move if he kept sleeping like this.
Didn't we just found some rock by the river yesterday? Ra thinks to himself before waking up Slakk, only meeting with a weak resistance and a near-death "Iknowiknowiknow" complain. If anything, they could start there. There are only two or at most three sides they need to worry about if they decided to hug the river. Besides, the ground over there should be much easier to dig compare to here. Maybe they can set up a fishing dam or something near the river.
It took about half an hour for the majorities of the goblins to wake up from the sleep, save for those who were on guard yesterday. And with the decreasing food, clean water, and just a good sleeping spots for these old bones, Ra decided to start up their debate from yesterday.
"Look, I think we need to move to yesterday's spot. The near river one." He said, addressing the supposed leaders of each faction. Behind him on his right, Palek was picking his nose. Just by looking at his shoulder movement, Ra could tell what this idiot is doing behind his back. The barbar must be picking his nose. Half of his index finger must have entered his left nostril. Wait, he is gonna eat it.
Yep... What a bunch of bollocks.
"Look, we need a better ground than this." Ra pointed at the unevenness of the ground, the formation of tree roots, dead branches, bird feces, droppings, and elephant footprints on the ground. "We need water. We need an easier, more defendable location." He stopped, trying to read the expression of each leader. Their emotions are unclear, especially from the druid. She and her dogs are the stronger here. The militarists are a tad easier, but a smudge easy won't give Ra the support he needed.
"And this... This won't cut it for us. So, we vouched for resettlement near the River. There are boulders near there that we can make a defense. Not a proper wall but should be something..." The group was still young, and perhaps the optimism from finding his own clan has made Ra weak, but that doesn't mean he put his group's survival beneath the clan. All he gave them was his standing. Now it's their turn.
- Decided to head for the location between river and boulder, preferably river if the locations of both are far from each other.

"Lmao, ez" Klein said with a huge grin. The path to here was too easy when he is level 35 and not a level 13 noob. Plus, there should be some loot waiting to be distributed. The thought of being less naked with only his feet covered make him a happy man today. That and the probability of maxing out this class.
"I also vote for the steep cavern, like it would provide the easiest access for the snake no?"

"Sure, let's speedrun this." Klein said with enthusiasm in his voice without giving much thought about his future foes. The current team was able to handle anything thrown at their way. Besides, his newly acquired passive should somewhat help him against the poison. He wasn't too sure about the hypnotize part, how it suppose to work on a player character. Would he be rip away from his control and be command by an AI during the hypnotize phase? Or would it be more like a black screen, where he saw himself from a third point of view?
But, as Ames had suggested, there are no such things as overpreparation. Perhaps the market will have something he needed?
"READY WHENEVER YOU ARE." He shouted from atop of his lungs before sprinting toward the marketplace.
"Do you know any of them?" Ra asked, pointing his pickaxe toward one of the goblins. She wear a wolf pelt on her head, and wolf fangs as jewerly. Her eyes shine like emerald in the dark cave, a dark green that pierce the void. The wolf packs surrounded her consists of the largest wolves Ra had ever seen, and yet they comply to her whim as if they were dogs from the beginning.
With a mouthful of smashed berries, Pakrez doesn't even need to look up to see who Ra was pointing at. Years of working together under the mine create some stupid things called "coooperation."
"Twig... She like wolves. Treated them as her own. Kinda like some druid some sort." He paused, grumbled as he picked a hair of something from his mouth, unmistakenly from those dogs. "Herd that she raised them wolves from her blood. Explained why she doesn't have a mate yet and those dogs so damn smart."
"How about them?" Ra asked, pointed at the loudmouth who just announced everything she planned to the whole clan, if this whole bunch of ragtag can be even call as "clan".
"OOOh. OOh.I know I know." Said the squeaker of the trio.
And with a smile so wide that it almost cut his head in half, Ra patted the girl that seated next to his rock, who seems to be so enthusiastic in answering something so insignificant.
"Sure, your turn, little one."
"First of all, Me not small." She puffed, "second. the loud mouth you just pointed at is my model."
"Oh, is that so?" Parkez chimes in, interested at this so called "model" that suddenly sprung up in the convo.
"Yah, she is pretty..." Slakk paused,scratching at her bald spot near the crown, a sign of her embarrasment. For some reason, the girl was born with this hair that is mostly straight until it curled near the end. The elders joke that she has "worms hair" and apparently she was being picked upon by her peers for that. In an attempt to fit in, she would plucked her hair from its root as the new hair would become straight if you pluck the worms hair out. Well, there is a reason she joined mine. And she used wear a wool headgear, or a miner cap on her head. Sadly, both of those were gone on their escape.
"iwanttolearntobelikeprettylikeher." The mosquito answered
Spotting the unease in her voice, Ra tried to divert his attention to other gobbo, asking about their informations. For the first time, Pakrez did not know everything despite his reputation as an evesdropper, and Slakk shakes her head so many time that she decided to fall asleep during the day.
"Welp, look like we down to two." Ra said before picking up his pickaxe and started to search around for a cave before disappearing into the woods, leaving Pakrez and sleeping Slakk behind.
"You coming?" The voice asked, and Pakrez simply followed, letting Slakk behind, deep in her own bubble.
+Simple convo + Pakrez and Ra will attempted to search for shelter, mainly anything that resemble a cave or a rock formation that is suitable to dig

Age:21 Sex:Male Appearance/Description:

Honesty
Survivor of the Cowardice
Work
Skills:

Small Lies Ra likes to tell little lies. From things like lying about his productivity to who eat the cake (it's Ra)
Flaws:
SpitefulRa harbors spite from everything that crosses him. Sure, he won't let them blind his sight, but his spiteful tendency does lead to laziness and a somewhat self-corrupt/destructive to pop up here and there.
FickleHe craves attention, but when others give it, Ra lashes out like he prefers to be left alone.
@ClocktowerEchos I was trying to say that he values the societal structure and greater good, but I think I will change that to Honesty for the sake of simplicity. And knowing goblins, it may spruce up something good.
For flaws, sure. I will change it to Spiteful. Spiteful: Ra harbors spite from everything that crosses him. Sure, he won't let them blind his sight, but his spiteful tendency does lead to laziness and a somewhat self-corrupt/destructive to pop up here and there.
All of these changes will be made after I wake up though.
