Big Game Hunters

Tiger Jack Moron

You've hunted big game all over the world. You're an expert tracker and a crack shot. There isn't a dangerous animal anywhere that you haven't seen (and killed). You've never hunted a human, but of course the opportunity has never presented itself. Who knows what the future will bring? Jack: "Okay Bongo, you go into the tall grass and thrash around like an antelope in distress. I'll climb up this tree so I can get a good shot at the beast when he attacks. Dammit man, antelopes don't wail in fear. Maybe a little bleating would be okay. Come on, get into the role. You have to make it sound real."

Bongo

You are the greatest native guide in the history of Africa. You've walked the continent from North to South and East to West. There probably isn't another man alive that can make that claim. You're an expert in native customs and languages, not to mention animal behavior. You're working for Tiger Jack right now, but the man is insane. You might switch sides if you got a better offer.

Missionary

Dr. Zaius

You are trying to follow in the footsteps of your hero, Dr. Livingstone. You hope to bring the "three C's" to Africa - Commerce, Christianity, and something else that starts with C. You can't really remember. So far your mission has been a total bust. You were forced to flee into the jungle after getting pawed by some dirty apes and now you are hopelessly lost. Maybe it wasn't a good idea to count on Jesus as your bush guide. Zaius: "I'm sooo hungry. I wonder if these berries are good to eat. They sure are red."

Roger the Rhino

You just want to be left alone. Your favorite hobbies are eating grass and letting the birds pick parasites out of your hide. Your poor eyesight and a short temper make you dangerous when disturbed.

Tarzan and Jane

The two of you returned to the jungle after growing bored and frustrated with life in England. You do your best to defend the defenseless whether they are animals or humans.

Jane: "You named your chimpanzee "Cheetah," and named our son "Boy." I get to name our next child."

Lippy the Lion

Someday you'll join a pride and start a family, but for now you're content to prowl the tall grass alone doing as you please and polishing your pouncing skills. The little natives in this valley are kind of tough and stringy, but every now and then a juicy morsel crosses your path. You relish both white and dark meat.

Brutus the Elephant

You are a young rogue male elephant expelled from the herd for malicious butting and thumping. For some reason you are full of rage and enjoy abusing anything smaller than you. In this valley that includes every living creature. Your reign of terror will continue until someone kills you, or someone makes an elephant sized Prozac tablet.

The Crocodiles

Crocodiles are always a threat near the stream. Humans are advised to be careful when crossing.

Pygmies of the Valley

King M'Buti

Your tribe of tiny ferocious warriors defends the valley with a passion. You strictly enforce your traditional law: "You must be shorter than this line to enter the valley." Your warriors prefer ambush attacks with poisoned arrows. It is the custom of your people that a young male must go on a quest and return with an ivory tusk before he can become a warrior. It's a tough task for a young pygmy, but it insures that the bloodline is strong.

Forces: 4 bands of pygmy archers (4 warriors each), 1 band of pygmy spearmen bodyguards (4 men)
