Ok well I am a trained blacksmith. I also have military training and can sail (and navigate using stars if I needed to).
What else... I know basic first aid, especially against hypothermia. I can sing and dance if you need entertainment. Aand... that's about it. So yeah, I think I'd be a good guy to have around don't you :)?

I can fish. I was raised in the country, so I learned survival skills at a young age. Tracking, growing, fishing, finding food, identifying plants, and most importantly, building fire for your rockets.
In a nuclear war almost all those skills are gonna count for shit.

Fourth year medical student, I know basic life support (higher than first aid) along with a whole variety of medical knowledge and minor procedural skills (suturing, cannulas, catheters).

I hunt and shoot, own my own firearm, can bowhunt but it's been a while. I'm learning how to reload ammunition. I can drive well, I'm a strong swimmer and I know a little self defense (MSD and knife fighting my housemate showed) and I am a pretty big guy. I have a fountain of random knowledge that might come in handy.

I know all pokemons strengths and weaknesses.
And I'm gay, so if the stereotype fits I'll make sure everyone looks their best?
That post was so much win, you have no idea.

OT: I was occupied in an armory when I was in the army. I know how to assemble/disassemble guns, repair them, make my own ammo and explosives. Furthermore I've had a lot of survival training (also in the military) and I would not hesitate to kill my enemies.

I'm a good and just leader, and the only reason I didn't apply to be an officer is because they can't get any work in our country at the moment. Sigh.

Perhaps... Documenting the aftermath... Or keeping spirits up by being a loremaster and telling stories to the survivors as well as making sure important information doesn't get lost with time...

I have some survival skills, but I have to be in the situation to actually recall any of them...

I have rudimentary survival skills (I can find/treat water in the field. Make shelters, start fires, find relative azimuthal directions), and a broad base of practical knowledge for educating the surviving generations.

I'd have a fair shot at pulling my weight in post-apoc society.
Bear Grylls'd be proud.

I'm incredibly good at escapism (not connected to this website) and can scavenge for anything I need.
Good, and I can blow the shit out of stuff with deadly accuracy and a 9mm revolver. Let's team up!

I'm relatively healthy, an excellent shot with most firearms (and I'm more than passing familiar with firearm repair), I have a fair amount of hand-to-hand combat training (including some limited jiu-jitsu, a fair amount of Krav Maga... and for swordsmanship: fencing and kenjutsu), I'm not squeamish about killing things, I know my way around old fashioned machine shops fairly well, I'm pretty good at rebuilding electronics, I'm a passable auto mechanic (or a really good one, as long as the car is old enough to be carbureted)...
one drawback: I'm a brooding, antisocial bastard.

I can betray all the remaining survivors and eat their flesh.
Not sure if that's a particularly useful skill to anyone but me.

Oh, I'm honest too.

Pretty good with a weapon, be it a knife or firearm. Have a fair amount of survival and hunting skills. Know a little bit about farming and animal husbandry. Can assist in producing simple tools and items. Know when to shut up and when to speak up.

Eh... I'd be pretty okay. I know who to stick to and who to shoot or scare away.

I can be a bit of a historian, remembering stories for future generations, and somewhat of a bard, I learned a lot of old Mexican poems from my dad. Also, I'm pretty good at using a shield and spear.

Leader/Leader's Aide. I've got the means and friends to survive, plus the survival instincts along with my gang.

My best skill is that I'm great at improvising, and am a quick learner.
Also I have a good sense for technology, I can usually fix most things, or figure out how they work with relative ease.
Beyond that, quick wit and some diplomatic sense and can easily convince others to see my point of view. People usually see me as the nice kid next door (you have no idea how handy that is when you're working in a store selling things).

Other than that, I think my useful skills come to an end.

I'm pretty useless, but since I'm a girl I guess I could have children? Other than that, I dunno, I'm pretty smart so I guess I could teach myself how to do something useful.
Now there's a trooper!

I could I guess...uhh do math? Ahahaha and fish I suppose. And if all else fails I'll provide food for at least a dozen people.

I'm good at organizing people and problem solving. I also have a decent grasp of tactics and firearms because I play paintball and my uncle is a cop. I'd make a half decent militia comander.

Um, I guess I could playtest any new games made post-apocalypse?

Yeah, not very useful.

I own over 700 novels so I could help start the First Post-Apocalyptic Library Branch of the New World, lol. I'm also a great cook, I can hunt, I'm a musician, and a massage therapist. I'm decent with vehicle repair, I'm a pretty good architectural designer, and have a green thumb, so I'm sure I'll find a place somewhere.
