The Foraging DC of the Wisdom (Survival) check is based on the abundance of food in the surrounding area, which is broken up into three tiers.
Food and Water Availability | DC |
---|---|
Abundant | 10 |
Limited | 15 |
Very little, if any | 20 |
On a successful check the PC finds -
- Food: 1d6 + wisdom modifier divided by 2. (kilograms)
- Water: 1d6 + wisdom modifier multiplied by 4. (liters)
Rolls for food and water are made separately.
Roll a d4 for the category of food and a d20 for the specific type.
