ARK: Survival Evolved

Valhalla Redux
The Diary of Laura Lee
Day 1:
I awoke naked & afraid on some mysterious land. Before I had even gained full consciousness I heard eirry sounds,
and was attacked by a dilo. I had to run fast, found a steep hill and climbed to safety.
I remember nothing of who I am, only my name and my basic abilities. From the stars, I determined I "spawned" South.
I see no other human signs of life except an empty boat. I gather material to make a fire and start to make a crude
pick to help gather material to build a shelter.

Day 3:
I have gathered material and started building a small thatch hut on a hill side out of reach of the many patrolling dilos and compys
Each day I survey a little further out, behind me I find rocks with high metal content I keep in mind for future when I can
perhaps make a crude forge and make better tools.
LL
Day7:
Gathering materials to make a raft to explore and find a safehaven to make a more perm camp.
After crafting some simple spears I attacked some dilos to start getting much needed hide. Was bit and had to recover
from wounds.
Week 2:
Raft finished, gathered supplies and headed out of inlet to explore. Found a small island just west of area with a nice
cave. The island has no predators only herbs I have named it "SafeHaven" and started building camp in the cave.
Cave has fresh water inside as well and a high ledge to build a home in away from any poetential threats.
Week 3:
While building the lodge I came upon a full grown trike stuck in-between some trees. I decided to take some shots at it
with my sling shot. I was able to stand on some rocks above and rained down rocks on its head and finally it collapsed
I ran up to it and found it unconscious and in a sort of daze. I found it would eat Mejo berries from my hand.
Have realized that maybe from this chip installed in my arm I somehow have the power to tame these dinos. I was able to tame
this trike and it now follows me and helps gather berries etc. I crafted a saddle for it as well. So far so good.
Week 4:
Just about finished the lodge. I built big with extra rooms in case I run into anyone else on this land. If I should die
maybe someone else will find it and use it from there?
Am planning on an extended raft trip to further expore the land and find other resources.
I was able to build a forge and smithy and now have metal tools and a pike which can take care of those
damn dilos and compys. I seem to have also been "implanted" with the knowledge to build and craft things I never
would have been able to before. That I know of?
Week 5:
Set out on raft to the S and SE, Damn fog. I can hear the terrible sounds of some giant dinos at night in the distance
So I am wary of what else is on this land. So far except for the herbs like Trikes and Brontos, Paurasaurs etc and the dilos
I haven't seen any big predators.
Week 5 Update:
I was right about the sounds. On this big island SE of my island are terrible dinos, I saw a T-Rex!!!, Raptors, Huge Vultures'
Damn I have to be careful to keep my distance.
Went around the big island to find icebergs with penguins, metal deposits and some oil. I gathered what I could before I froze to death
So can only spend a little time and have to make a run for it.
Week 6:
Finished Lodge going to setout for another raft trip.
This time I went East all the way around this huge island(s) There is a volcano island full of bad ♥♥♥ dinos. I saw Saber tooth's, also
along with Carnos. I am wondering if I could someday tame a T-Rex? If I find the right opportunity of one stuck somewhere I will try. It
would sure help make this place safer with one of those on your side. The water is treatorous btw. giant piranhas, giant sharks etc.
This place is beautiful as it is dangerous. But I have found no other living humans. I did come accross some ancient ruins so people have
been here before me. But what happened to them? Why or how did they vanish? I still have no clue as to how or why I am here.
Week 8:
Set out along my coastlines and found a huge female trike would make a perfect mate for my male. I build a temp wood wall and then shot it
with some tranq arrows I had made and a cross bow. I led it into my trap and fired away until it passed out. This also I was able to tame
It is like 168 years old (lev 168) after I tamed it. I am going to see if I can breed them. I would help if I had a pack of them around
in case one of those Rex or other nasty's ever gets in my path.
Week 12:
OK wow I bred the trikes and hatched twins!!! 2 males rated 130. They eat Tintoberries until full grown then
switch to Mejo for reg food. I deveoloped a bola weapon works good so far. Instead of chasing those pigs it
stops them and they cant run away so I can kill them Q&E. Still no sign of anyone I can't believe I'm
here all alone? Why? Well at least I can run around naked and not worry about it :)
I sited more ruins NW of here, now that I will have a pack of trikes I will start
to explore more inland and these ruins. See if I can find any clues.
LL
Day 99:
Short trek N of island to the ruins. Nothing, must be 100's of years old no signs of life.
Ran into first fight with raptors though and saw giant scorps.
I tamed 4 of these cute little dinos that like to be petted and seem to help other dino's around.

Day 115:
OMG What an intense day! I lost 2 130 trikes.
I had setout around the East exloring carno island then started up the east coast.
I had passed some caves on the shoreline and noticed a cove with a nice beach on it.,
I pull in and noticed a hill/ravine going up a mountain. Up at the top was a lev 56 T rex
I went up the hill on the other side hoping to come out above it and in a spot where
it couldnt reach me. I get all the way up there and its gone?
Then I look down atthe beach and there is the Rex attacking my trikes . 2 Lev 130 trikes killed
I ran down the mountain and found a spot above it and started shooting arrows at it.
After 75 arrows it goes down and I start tameing. My heart is still pounding when I turn around
and down the beach a little ways is a F-in Sivler GIGA!!! WTF
Luckily it never comes my way but im in a panick to get this tamed, on my raft and get the hell
out of there. So I made it back home - 2 trikes, but luckily I have a hi lev make and fem to breed more
I am still alive and now I have a Lev 83 Rex for protection. If I could somehow get that Giga
I'd be Queen of the island. But not sure a single person can take one down. it would take
1000 arrows alone and tons of meat
Day 130:
Armed with a Rex now I got the courage to go to the Big island in the SW corner. Trying to gather fur to make cold weather
clothing. Hunted a male Rex lev 127 good mate pair now so I am feeling secure.
someday I hope to be able to make a saddle and tame a vulcture so I can get around
safer, faster and see the world better. Maybe a way out of here?
Next week or so will be spent breeding and build up supplies
LL
Day 175:
Almost got killed today. I was getting pelts to make warm clothing was fighting a rhino
when I got ambushed by 3 REX's! I had 2 Rex both lev 103's They killed the other rex of mine and
took 90% of the health on mine before I could get away. Damn that was close.
Back to breeding another to replace my losses.
LL
Day 189:
Searching the swamp for a spino. I found a 100 and was up on hills with Rex
I tried to lure it to a spot I could fire on, but the damn thing chased me up the mt
I just got to my rex and jumped on as it got to me and started attacking.
I knew I couldn't kill it with my lev 118 so I tried to run away and eventually got away from it
Next time I guess. I need to find better ambush spot.
That Silver Giga is still at beach. If I had enough supplies I could take it down
But I will need a ton of arrows and narcs and meat for that beast. But hey that is the King
Back to base to regroup.
LL
Day 200:
Well I did it! I tamed a giga all by myself. I am an opportunist and look for things like this a giga stuck in a box canyon.
It took 275 tranq arrows and 250 narcs. What a beast! breath taking.
Also to update. I built a taming box on the NW corner of carno island
a 5x5x5 cube of window frames. I used it to lure a Argent then ran inside
and shot at it thru the windows till it went down so I have wings to fly now
and explore this land. Is there a way off?
LL
Day 205:
I found signs of life on the S spawn where I appeared.
A remains of a campfire and a storage box. But no other signs of life
Perhaps they were'nt as lucky as me and got killed. But it gives me hope
that there may be others or more to come?

This is a new type of hardcore serve that is also tweaked for dinos balance etc. Hardcore means you get one life to live so you play different carefull not careless etc you need to plan and play smart
I want as realistic as I can make it. You can only build thatch and wood homes. But you can make primitive firearms anything that would be reasonable and realistic in a real world situation. My plan for when I die is to make the dinos im not using unclaim so I can come back as someoen else and reclaim them. I also pin or unlock doors so I can re use the forts etc. Any how this is what I want to try and play and if anyone else wants to join ok.
It would also help if you were in a tribe with a few admins who upon your death could put you back in the tribe you will just have to re lev again.
