Last year you were just an ordinary bum on the street, but then the planetary government went and conscripted you into their exploration service. After a six month training program you are ready. You get given your assignment, find a rare metal, rumored to exist on a distant planet, and bring it back. But, right before you set out, you learn that the governments of other planets as well as space pirates are also after this metal, you must beat them to it.

Okay, I've rearranged my points to be more even with each other.
Am I alone? Ludwig: What about the other bums?
I check up on data involved with the planet. History, climate, surroundings, and possible sites where the mineral might be. But I also look over my shoulder every so often to avoid getting chomped without noticing it.
You do some exploring as the sun sets, but the moon rises and gives off enough light to see by from its volcanos, the herbivores have gone to sleep so you don't have to worry about them. What do you do?

okay, but further redistributions will cost 100 univerchips.
you find there is a possible mineral site nearby but you will have to hike up to it, which is half a days journey but it is almost night. you also find there is a small barren mesa which you can land on and set up camp and be protected from predators. What do you do?
you continue searching and find a native, lucky for you the language he speaks a language in your translator. He calls out to you and asks you a question. "Hey there young man, I was wondering if you could do something for me, nearby is a mineral deposit, if you bring me some of the plants that grow there i will give you a place to stay, a hunting rifle (10 damage), and a special prize. You can park your ship over there." What do you do?

You set up camp, but you have to sound-proof your tent because of the noise the animals make, this causes you to get less sleep, but you just take one of your "energy pills" and start your hike. You make it to the source to find a free-lance explorer, he says he will be willing to work for you, but you need to repair his ship. He shows you a camp made by a previous expedition where you can park your ship, but if you don't help him you can't stay there. What do you do?
apparantly, you didn't see my first response, when i thought up the character sheet i was thinking 10 points for every slot, 40 points to distribute, so I took the extra points off your intelligence.
you go back to get your ship and park it where he told you. After that you and the native go to the source, the plants are easy to find because they glow in the dark, but they are spread out because they are tasty. After you find the plants you find some diamond, the native offers to help you carry some back, but only if you give him some of your supplies. What do you do?

you hike back and pickup your ship, you fly back and park it in the hanger. After you dismount he shows you to his ship, it is a Veuian Corsair but sustained heavy damage when he got in a skirmish with a pirate. After looking at it you determine you can fix it well enough to get to the nearest friendly planet, but it will take awhile. What do you do?
You arrive at the planets surface, the continent you landed on has a few animals, but lots of carnivourous plants. Soon after landing you have already killed two plants and found they contain a delicious fruit. You have also found there is nearby mineral source, but the path is extremely dangerous during the day. What do you do?
you find an animal that preys on the plants, you give it some food and it stays with you. Then suddenly it looks at you and starts growling, then it leaps over you and kills a walking plant. It then howls and more of its kind show up. You know they will protect you if you go to sleep. So, what do you do?
I train them to kill plants and give the fruit to me.Once done,I give them half of the fruit for each load they send me.Though I keep 15 near me while mining for protection.
