[QUOTE="shadzar, post: 5429754, member: 6667746"] You are playing mortals, because they CAN die; so if some namby-pamby Queen of England in a parade handwaiving of things mortals require is going on I won't be playing or running the game. If you don't have proper shelter from the "elements", then you are going to have some problems for a few days to recover from possible misgivings if you happen to roll and get them. If you dont eat, then you are going to be weaker as well. Don't sleep, again expect to be weaker. Requirements are based on your chosen race as to how much of these you need. My games are played as mortal characters rather than pieces on a chessboard, so therefore mortal considerations are taken into account. This can be complex or simple depending ont he detail wanted by the players at the time, and the environment requires. Get lodging at the inn, the you have your shelter and food, just you need to remember to sleep. Say you prep and make camp in the woods, the you need to hunt or eat some rations, and make sure to sleep. My games have time flowing forward, so these things take time and if you run out of say food, then you have to hunt, forage, or fish for it that may cost time you cannot afford, but that is life. No RPG (involving mainly mortals) has zero resource management, as you run of out various things all the time. Like all equipment, these thigns are for the players to keep up with. You wouldn't forget your sword, so why forget food or water? [/QUOTE]
