Incarna Core Survival Challenge

Run a survival challenge
Way-Finding
= Moving between way points using and adapting as needed the knowledge of the terrain, weather, dangers, and sustenance needs to arrive at a destination.
> Orienteering, Survival, Meteorology, Geography = create generic skill and trait d20/icore templates + update base to include apt and basic font awesome images.
vs.
Travel
= Using Geography and knowledge of existing roads, settlements, and markers to provide a set of options which guarantees a range of movement rates and arrival at pre-set destination.
> Geography, Lore, Streetwise

Planning: Takes survivalist 1 way point of time/scouting/analysis (uses time and resources equivalent to moving to the first way point).
= Make a check based on highest common level of of 4 skills; if any missing = -1 for each missing skill.
The RC result is either in whole or half is subtracted from X waypoints (as appropriate for scale)
Planned: +2 [1 to 4] all travel checks.
Harsh: No healng if camping checks failed.
0 > 1: 1 Short Rest
1: Waypoint #1: Camp @ Automatic

1 > 2: 2 Short Rests, DC 5 Constitution @ d4/2 cold damage
2: Waypoint #2: [harsh] Camp @ DC 7 Wisdom (Survival)
2 > 3: 3 Short Rests, 1st/2nd rests DC 5 Constitution (Survival) @
3rd rest = ascending @ DC 7 Strength (Athletics) @ d4/2 Malaise

Segment/Waypoint
= gear to offset = -X [damage type(s)] damage OR Advantage
Condition – ex: Survival aspects (climate, terrain)
= penalties to check if unfamiliar

How much damage is taken and how do they heal?
@ end of day
@ End heals at CON per week (same as illness)
Random Encounters:
Deadfall, avalanche, flash flood, = meteorology
Animals/predator avoidance, safe ground = Tracking

Extra points for teamwork?
= if everyone in the group being guided has the survival skill, then the highest common survival skill level is added to survival check of guide.
= lower cost Labor cost
= preparing for a group behind them?

Foraging: Each day they can forage. This is a survival check and it heals 1 damage per RC. Botany 4+ and Zoology 4+ both add a result degree.
Hunting: For multiple people?
= Provide for a level of care that alleviates fatigue before moving on to next waypoint.

Level of care:
A successful Survival check for a character better than competent guarantees a a better-than-average Diet and Rest, while those with less than competent skill get only average. The best Survival result can only grant an average rating for Conditions.
Long term care and malaise (must be average care to get any alleviation of malaise)
Malaise = con bonus, min 1, per week.
Should this be same for hard damage… then both can be Slow Healing damage
Rations: Average (non-preserved)
None (Iron rations) – calories only, bare survival; can go CON in days, then = turns fatigue into malaise

Exposure – fatigue (convert to real without rest)
Starvation – fatigue/real

Travel Rates: Sustained during a survival challenge assumes a prolonged
Days for base = / days for fast =

General Malaise (from exposure, illness; flu, cold, etc.); The healing rate is CON/week.
