[QUOTE="Amazing Mumford, post: 4955926, member: 33976"] Jhaelen-- But when you're increasing from a size small to a size medium, there is specifically only a x2 difference in need for food/water. Wouldn't the same factor correlate to a size change from medium to large? The same "body mass" increase would apply, whether you're going from small to medium or medium to large... unless I'm missing something... And Vegepygmy, my fault, I should have given a better background for the question. The terrain that the party currently is in does not supply natural grazing opportunities. And Frank, horses don't eat meat. And though some things a party can fight could be considered edible, depending on food requirements for the character/mount in question, I would argue that most things aren't. How often do regular PC's and mounts cook and eat drow or orcs, for example?? I'm not saying it can't be done, I'm just saying that it usually isn't. A dire boar, on the other hand, is a different story-- unless you get back to the point that horses don't eat meat; which means you still have to feed them. [/QUOTE]
