"perhaps tonight crab is on the menu!"

Des, you are able to auto Drag Kumunde away.
"That hurt, you crab! But the fire burns hot!" But the pain in his arm from the the crab pinch make it hard to aim such an awkward weapon and he misses. "If someone could help your dear captain, I am rather injured and in a spot of bother!"

After dragging the unconscious slaver behind the sentential like form of Ros (). Des rears up to look up at Thoy, "But 'Captain' your cutting such a gallant form with all that posing and waving about. Surely you can give that crab what for. Let us handle these meager opponents, and we'll come bask in your glory.
Des gestures to the massive crab he ran up to engage with, but makes the effort to look out for Thoy; as soon as the big one falls.
"Oh, I do understand, my friend. I dare say I hold out better than our unconscious friends. Please tend to them, then unto me."
victor yells out
" I can't do no damage to the damned things. you're all too close to them for me to throw my bombs!"
Tho can also 5' back, you'd hit the food, if you bomb it, there should be enough crab to make up for it.
If he doesn't post today, I'll not Pyre
Victor plods over to E4
Pyre steps up to the carb by him swinging his greatclub with all his might.
It would miss but Pyre has a flank from Rosalyn, and the crab is stunned, so, THUMP!
I'll move the crabs tonight.
Victor, I was going to move Pyre to that space so he could get the flank, do you want to get to the other side of him?
Pyre smashes his club down on the stunned crab, Rosalyn's spear pushing it into harms way. It is still up but stunned from the colorspray.
The aasimal then rushes the Crab on Thoyoitu flying to the ground and alighting and driving her spear at the creature.

Desula drags kumunde a solid 10 ft from the Crab
The crab flees from the fire and attacks the flying thing

Pyre, seeing the crab still moving, swings at it again.
Pyre's hit is light, but still seems to brain the crab, but its still up.
Desula, take a +2 on the heal check
Thoyoitu flanks the crab but is still quite bad at combat, being a thiefy thief and all.
nope, desola told him away. The only thing next to the crab is the camp fire
Victor winds up his arm.
"alright! Bombs away!"
Ros stepped back and set a flank then she stabs the crab

the Giant crab is still stunned, but the smaller counterpart is finally skewered, pierced by a spot that pyre softened with his hit.
The party is up again. Kumunde does not appear to be bleeding out, but is still out cold.
Roll in whatever order you like, don't need to wait on others to post.
Pyre steps up and swings at the crab again.
Thoyoitu works on gathering up the dead crabs in a pile at G14.
Before Pyre appraoches, VIctor tosses a bomb at the Giant Crab
which hits right in it's . . . face . . . area and explodes with unexpected force!
That, in combination with it's previous wounds, and the electrical shocks delivered by Desula brings the creature to the ground. Taking a moment to take stock, there are 4 abnormally large crabs, and one that's nearly man-sized dead on the beach in various states of cooked.
You can use Survival/Wisdom to gather rations from the crabs
You can use Craft to cut the creatures apart and create some basic armor from their chitinous shells and with a good check, perhaps weapons from their claws!

As soon as the unusually large crab falls, Des quickly moves to the business of trying to gather the remaining seafood. He tries to think of ways to preserve the meat for an extended stay.
Having only a vague idea, he beats himself up over his lack of knowledge of the task at hand. I wonder if that druid, Goandi, is still alive. He would be a lovely addition right about now. "Gentleman, who among you thinks you can save our meals for today. On a higher, note can we preserve them for a stock pile." Desula turns his head and looks at Victor, eyebrows arched.
Turning his attention to the large crab and his brethren...
"Pyre! How does a breastplate and shield sound? Maybe full-plate. Victor do you think you can help me alchemically harden these husks?"
"Yes, we'll turn the large one into armor and turn the smaller ones into food. If there's any shell left over from the small ones after turning them into food, we could cut it up and sharpen it to make spear or arrow heads. Or hats. Hats would be nice."

You can also make improvised armors. All improvised armor has -1 to DR and Max Dex, and +1 to ACP from the core versions

Bone armor gains the Broken condition if you get hit with a Nat 20 by an enemy.
*Bone Breastplate can be used as part of a piecemeal armor set to create better heavy armor, but is still Fragile
Pyre looks over the dead crabs and makes sure his party isnt hurt to much. "These crabs look like good eating. I bet i could replace my greataxe with these. Is everyone alright?"
"A breastplate should be fine. I can help with the weapons as well."
Thoyoitu works on processing the meat, "Des, please make me a dagger, will you? I think I need something better than a hefty torch, you know?"

Des already at work chipping and cobbling the shell off the big crab. Doing his best trying to save the meat by scrapping it on to a broken sheet of metal they will be putting over the fire for BBQ. He turns to Toyoitu, "Wouldn't you prefer a scimitar, it'll be good at hacking through that jungle. Besides this place seem like they'll grow everything big. A dagger isn't going to be that helpful against that big cat. Besides I think we'll have plenty for daggers, axes and sickles.
The voice of him mother echos through his head as he scraps whatever morsels he can together. "Drow that fail, are dead drow and a blight on their family name. Never fail this family Desula, you carry my name and the Shadow's ambition.
"Good idea, Des. That'll do just fine."
Victor reaches into his cage to fish for more bugs but he realises he has none left.
"fiddlesticks. i'll have to search for more of those specimens tomorrow."
You succeeded, Desula. I'll give you ration details tomorrow.
Any other orders?
It's late afternoon by the time you get cleaned up and get the crabs out of the surf. What do you want to do with your evening?
Victor spends the evening in the jungle grabbing more bugs for tomorrow, then goes to bed.
Pyre will builds a fire then spend his night crafting his new axe. At least getting it started.
"We should have guard shifts. Who wants to go first? Is anyone here sufficiently not tired?"
"I can take the first watch." Pyre says looking over his work.
"Thank you, Pyre. I'll watch the wounded." Thoyoitu sits with the wounded in the shelter, but eventually falls asleep after a long, tiresome day.
Victor yawns
"The one closest to midnight . I'll take a short nap first."
