Good morning! I am back from the Wilds fully refreshed from the forest bathing. Edison Lake in California is gorgeous but it does have a harrowing single lane road to get to.

So how would your character(s) handle being thrown into the wildness (whatever that may be for them)?

Bonus question, how would they handle--as driver or passenger--traveling along a single lane road following a mountain path (with occasional drop-offs on the side) and deep pot hole?

Both Max and Sunshine would probably be okay with camping in a known campsite in a known campground in the woods, but braving the actual factual *wilderness* would be a bit more daunting. Sunshine could probably manage better than Max, simply because she'd be more likely to think ahead when packing, has broader experience with survival, and has a better sense of direction.

Neither of them would be a fan of terrible, narrow and steep roads, but again Sunshine would be more used to thema and probably have a calmer head in dealing with them. Lots of roads and infrastructure in her world have not been kept up since the wars.

Wei Wuxian: Historically, WWX getting dropped off in the wilderness does not result in good things happening to bad people. He tends to come back angry, armed, and having invented a whole new type of cultivation. He'd love a single lane road on a mountain path - as a passenger he'd be urging the driver to go faster, and as a driver he'd be going faster. Let's not do this.

Klaus: He has, probably absolutely given Sir Reginald Hargreeves' preferences, been dropped off in the wilderness before. Probably more than once. Probably somewhere decidedly haunted. He's probably died about it at least once. He definitely doesn't remember. No one on this or any other planet is letting Klaus drive, and depending on who is driving, he's either cheerfully oblivious about his potential fate or swearing at them about it.

Cecil: Oh, he got his 'survive being ditched in the wilderness' badge when he was, like, ten. Pretty sure he was ten, he's not sure. But he had a lot of fun. Cecil doesn't usually drive, but he'd love to ride anywhere with Carlos!

Jon: ... So... Right now Jon would not do well in the wilderness, he's a city boy, he never did all of that survivalist... stuff. He is also not so keen on the idea of that single-lane road, either as the driver or the passenger.
