Survival

The ability to understand and overcome the challenges of inhospitable environments is represented by the Survival skill. This often means finding food and shelter in the wild, crafting basic tools from things found in nature, navigating unknown territory, and taming local wildlife.

• Survival 1: The character can get the lay of the land in an unfamiliar place and she can expect to comfortably survive for several days, finding her food and water with some effort and building a basic shelter.
• Survival 3: An affinity for the outdoors. The character can last months in the wilderness, making a sturdy shelter and tools, and comfortably finding food in the right places.
• Survival 5: An expert at tracking and foraging. Even the most extreme elements do not dissuade her, and she can easily survive in blistering heat or a fierce blizzard.
