Bottle-Episode Esque bit where the players explain what they can do to each other, what good skills they have as far as surviving goes. · Emphasis: Players get to know each other · As the storm starts to subside at dawn, they can explore, search for life, any indication of where they are, etc. But the beaches seem to go on for a while, and the land seems untouched. · Survival checks to hunt down material and such. Maybe start working on weapons. If the players go too far east/west on the beach, have a coastal encounter with the large decapod
