Foreword[]
Self-imposed rule #1: Only Roman may scavenge.
Self-imposed rule #2: Roman must kill at least 1 person every night.
"It's the law of the jungle in war... You kill or you die, there's no other way." ~Roman.
Day 1[]
Allowing Katia to board with me may have been a mistake, her wound is getting worse and she sleeps all day, I've decided not to give her any food until she makes herself useful, other than that I am happy that I managed to craft a bed and radio, just need to find some damn smokes.
Katia suggested that I build a weapon or tool for my scavenge tonight, but I ignored her, she does not understand the joy of killing with ones barehands.
Night 1 - Quiet House[]
There is an elderly couple hoarding supplies, that is not very neighbourly of them. I'm taking 2 lockpicks with me.
Upon entering the house, the elderly male rushed at me with evil intent and I was forced to subdue him with my fist, his wife then lunged at me and I was forced to push her down the ladder, breaking her neck on impact with the solid basement floor.
Scavenged supplies:
3 Bandages
2 Canned Food
2 Herbal Meds
1 Medications
4 Raw Food
3 Vegetables
10 Clean Water
4 Electric Parts
3 Jewelry
Day 2[]
Katia failed to defend Our Shelter from a raid during the night, and managed to become sick, she is becoming a liability that I simply cannot support any longer. She assures me that she can get us a good price with Franko, a local who visits with goods to barter sometimes, I will give her one last chance to redeem herself. I made Katia clear out a trash pile while I slept all day listening to classical music played on the radio.
Night 2 - Shelled School[]
There's been rumors of homeless taking refugee here they may have supplies I need.
I had to remove a trash pile by hand to get through, but I managed to find some good supplies, including some food which had been hidden by two of the men, I deemed their deaths to be required to ensure the safety of the others, we cannot allow thieves, especially in these times. Surprisingly the other men, even the one whose food they were stolen did not appreciate what I was doing for them and became angry and violence seemed imminent but after bashing the skull of one of the men into the hard floor and taking his knife, they quickly fled, leaving only one knife wielding man to contend with, a few stabs and he was no longer a threat. Unfortunately one of the men managed to stab me, but it's just a flesh wound.
Scavenged supplies:
3 Bandages
4 Canned Food
3 Herbal Meds
1 Medications
2 Raw Food
1 Moonshine
2 Jewelry
2 Knives
Day 3[]
Katia failed to defend Our Shelter once again, and managed to get herself wounded. But luckily for her Franko visited today and she got such a great price that I bandaged her up and we shared a bottle of Moonshine. Felt almost like a real home for a while.
Barter:
5 Jewelry, 2 Herbal Meds
for
7 Parts, 24 Components, 16 Wood, 9 Fuel, 5 Ammunition, 8 Clean Water, 8 Quality Roll-Up, 1 Canned Food, 1 Vegetables.
- TIP: Katia was broken and Roman was depressed, sharing a bottle of Moonshine allows both survivors to get drunk, which allows Katia to interact with Franko, and be put to bed.
Night 3 - Supermarket[]
There were 3 scavengers at the Supermarket, they claimed to have no bad intentions and were just their to scavenge for supplies but I could not simply let them take all the good supplies. I did what had to be done, what any rational thinking person would have done in my place.
I followed one of the scavengers to the basement and ambushed them, stabbing them to death and obtaining a shotgun from their lifeless corpse. A second scavenger came down the basement ladder with an assault rifle but I managed to fill them full of buckshot before they reached the bottom. A third wielding a Pistol stupidly attempted the same, and met the same fate, it's lucky I'm not a cannibal or this prey would've been ruined by all the metal, very messy.
Scavenged supplies:
2 Assault Rifles
1 Shotgun
3 Canned Food
4 Ammunition
2 Electric Parts
1 Bandages
1 Vegetables
1 Raw Food
Day 4 (Spike In Crime)[]
Armed raiders came in force last night and severely wounded Katia and took off with 6 Raw food and 1 Clean Water. Hopefully an Assault Rifle improves her chances next time. Morale is pretty low, Katia doesn't approve of my methods for collecting supplies. I fear she may leave, and without her who would guard Our Shelter at night? Rumour has it a sniper has taken up residence at a hotel and is firing upon civilians at a place the locals have taken to calling Sniper Junction, maybe I should go there and see If I can help, it should at least get Katia off my back. I built a Simple Heater today as the weather is getting chilly.
Night 4 Sniper Junction[]
Upon entering I noticed a man standing near some stashes of components and wood, I asked him how he had managed to obtain them but he didn't have an adequate response, I was forced to put an end to his thieving ways using my knife. Sniper fire made it difficult to pass but I was able to take cover behind some obstacles and make it to the statue at the center of the square where I came across a wounded man, he claimed to be returning home with food and medicine for his child but I did not trust him, using a train and ambulance as cover I managed to make it to an apartment building where I found the crying baby of the wounded man, upon seeing that he was telling the truth I decided to help him, if nothing else I figured it would at least make Katia happy. Unblocking the door in the sewers enabled the wounded man to get back home to his wound, where he gave me his deceased wife's jewelry collection as a reward. I used the sewer to avoid most of the sniper firing while returning to Our Shelter.
Day 5[]
No raid last night, yay!. Katia was annoyed at me having killed the scavenger, but helping the wounded man made her overlook it and improved her mood. A giant man named Boris came today, asking for a place to stay, I decided to let him stay to help Katia guard Our Shelter at night, even though it means another mouth to feed.
Night 5 Small Apartment Building[]
Killed a man named Alsekey and robbed his corpse while his mother and father mourned over him, Katia will not be pleased.
