STRANDED ON AN ISLAND MEME



How did it happen? Maybe your airplane was brought down by a mysterious electromagnetic pulse. Or your boat collided with a reef. Or your dragon pulled a muscle and had to make an emergency landing. Or the Love Boat decided you were a hopeless case and marooned you to die.

It doesn't matter, all that matters is you suddenly find yourself on a deserted island, with nothing but sand, sea, and whatever shipwreck / planewreck / dragonwreck washed up with you. What do you do?

How To Play
1. Post a comment. In the subject line, put what your character is doing, and any preferences you have.
2. Tag around.
3. Have fun, and try to escape!

Need More Ideas?
These are NOT the only options available, but a few suggestions to get you started:
1. Build a signal fire.
2. Forage for food.
3. Try to lasso a sea turtle.
4. Build a raft to escape.
5. Spell HELP on the beach.
6. Look for rum.
7. Get the sand out of your-- Look there's sand everywhere, okay?
8. Get your supplies back from the monkey that stole it.
9. Run away from the cannibals.
10. Dance the night away!

tldr- a space pirate in theory, vigilante in practice. He pretends not to be nice because it's embarrassing. A self-styled β€˜demon of justice.’ So maybe have to upgrade it to 'stranded on a planet' but whatever!

"Well this is fantastic," the small voice sounds tinny and muffled. It's coming out of a very small speaker on...what appears to be a potato battery. The little speaker has a yellow light on top that flickers as it talks. It is unclear if this is a toy or something else but it does appear to be...soliloquising?

"You know, if I had a nickel for every time I'd been ejected from my body and turned into a potato," it continued. "I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot but it's strange that it's happened twice."

What a strange toy. It goes silent for a while and then, impatiently:

"Are we just going to stare at each other until you die, or do you plan on picking me up?"

There doesn't seem to be any other soul around on the beach, but there's no shortage of debris washing up on the shore. Bits of wood here and there along with an intact crate holding... Well, that would be telling.

It's going dark soon, though. And soon, its occupant will rise from the coffin within it...
