The previous summer has passed and a new one has dawned. And with every passing year, Scoutmaster Rose get prettier and Scoutmaster Tom gets grumpier. But this does not hinder the sheer idiocy of their fine campers.
First, I’d like to give you a nice, friendly little welcome to Camp Elk - known to some as “Camp for Idiots”. As you may have guessed, it is not uncommon for the children who attend there to be idiots; aka do really stupid things for no absolute reason other than the fact that they are bored.
Camp Elk, unlike many other summer camps, houses both male and female scouts, aging from thirteen to seventeen. Male scouts, led by Scoutmaster Tom Williamson, are known as “Buck Scouts”. Female scouts, led by Scoutmaster Rose Allon, are known as “Doe Scouts”. Both Buck and Doe Scouts complete activities together. They do not compete against each other.
However, there is a form of competition among the Elk Scouts as a whole - badges, and stars. Badges are gained by completing tasks that the badges require. For example, the Badge of Athletics would be gained by winning a certain athletic event. The Badge of Bravery for some sort of brave event, and so on. For a list of badges, see below. Badges are pinned on sashes given to every Elk Scout in the beginning of the summer.
Stars are gained by performing good deeds. Each Scout has their stars posted under their name on the bulletin board in the cafeteria. Whoever has the most stars by the end of the summer gets a special prize…
Badges
Note that badges can be lost by doing bad deeds.
Badge of Honor
Requirements: Perform an act of great generosity.
Badge of Athletics
Requirements: Win an athletic event.
Badge of Organization
Requirements: Report to the cafeteria earlier than required.
Badge of Fishing
Requirements: Catch the biggest fish of the day.
The Roleplay
This roleplay is a comedy based on summer camp. Do funny stuff. It’s meant for funny stuff. Will there be serious parts? Sure, be definitely not a whole lot of them! We need personalities of all kinds - cool, arrogant, nerdy, flirtatious, idiotic, smart - it’ll all add to the funny! Have a blast at Camp Elk, people!
Activities
There are numerous activities at Camp Elk. The day’s activities will be posted on the bulletin board in the cafeteria. The activities are
Hiking
