Only if you train to use it.

For example,

> Improve defensive reactions

or

> Learn to use this sword better

Or you're just lucky and an attack gets blocked by your crab-shield out of pure chance.

>Try to get peoples attention to distribute the bananas among them.
"Hey guys! Look what I found, hanging from the tree! I suppose they are edible?"

Also,

You need to be more careful with my Luger ammo. I don't want it to shoot sunglasses.

Sorry for the wait, guys.

Roll 4

Name : Bear Grylls (caekdaemon)
[ 2 ] = 2
> Looking at the holes in the boat's hull, Bear makes an intriguing observation:

"This might not be suitable as a shelter since its hull is smashed..."
And the fact that it's flooded with ~3 feet of water.

"Guys, we need to get the essentials to survival done! You can last around 3 minutes without air, 3 days without water and 3 weeks without food, so water is the essential for now!"

Little does Bear know that the human body behaves differently in Roll to Dodge - Island...

At least travel times tend to be reduced.

Using your super survival instinct, you locates a barrel-load of fresh water!

"Hey guys! I found fresh water!"

You see a blue-coated man standing next to your discovery, looking at you strangely.

"And now I've shown you how to survive the harsh conditions of an unforgiving island. If you keep your wits with you and adapt to your surroundings, you can make it out alive."

You hear a cry of pain.

"My comrade sense is tingling!"

You run to the boat and reach through the same hole that Robbynsan jumped through. Reaching down, you grab his arm and pull him up and out of the boat, right beside you. Looking at his injured legs, you think to yourself how stupid it would be to go inside the same way Robbynsan did.

George impales a nearby coconut crab with a stick and brings it over the fire to roast.

[ 6 ] = 6
> "Thanks man" Robbynsan says. He attempts to stop his legs from bleeding by wrapping a scrap of cloth around the wounds, but he drops the bandage in a yelp of pain.

Surprised, you say "Comrade, you appear to be bleeding!"

Walking around to the right , you climb up the rock that the boat is lodged into and jump onto the deck. You see a trap door that leads to the inside of the ship's hull, a door that leads to the captain's quarters, and a door to the crew's quarters.

>Help Bear Grylls in finding a clean water source.
"Hey, wait for me buddy! I'm coming with you!"
Seriously, we're running out of thirstpoints (?) here. Seriously need some water.

It's actually fairly accurate though.
Raid the crew's quarters first, and if unsuccessful, hit up the trap door. Have Robby investigate the captain's quarters if he's capable of moving.

In case you missed that...
