You are dropped into a field. You are wearing jeans, a t shirt, and tennis shoes. You are fully rested, hydrated, and fed. There is nothing around you that could be used as a weapon or tool.
Surrounding you completely is an infinite army of 5 year olds. They begin to come towards you with the intention of killing you.
It is impossible to escape in any way.
They will arrive one at a time. You have 10 seconds with each one before the next one arrives.
How many do you think you can take out before they overwhelm you?

So, they come at me B-movie henchman style? And bullshit about no weapons. I'll pop bones out of the sockets of skeletons if I must.

You'd get overwhelmed by 5 year olds pretty quick, of they want to kill you. You'll do well for about 90 seconds but as soon as a few of them pile on at once they'll start going for eyes and balls and it's all over.

I think the kid bias of not wanting to hurt a child would do most everyone in pretty quickly. Inside of 2 minutes I'd be done. Probably less time for it to be all but over, but I give myself a minute or so of just dying.

You can do that, but you have 10 seconds per kid, so when will you have the time?

Well, it's all just a matter of time. I figure about 5 minutes before you hit the ground and get swarmed. Maybe longer if you're a top level, Olympic athlete. I could see them and some UFC guys going 30 minutes or more.

I don't know. Like is this endless? Do I think there's a chance of escape? I'm definitely using some 5 year old kid parts as weapons. Do the kids have any kind of free will?

Can you quickly stack dead 5-year-olds as a barricade slash choke point, perhaps with a rudimentary lathe?

I cast my "charm person" special ability each turn and eventually even out with an endless bloodmatch of 5-year-olds.

Oh, we can do that? I cast raise dead after.the first 5 and a defensive Perimeter around the survivor create.

I wonder how long it would take to kill a 5 year old.
