I do like that one bad night of sleep can be very deleterious for parties. Given the swingynes of d20 s and 5e's low skill bonuses, it wouldn't take that many nights for a party to look for better accommodations. I suppose a Rogue with reliable talent might make a better wilderness guide than a Ranger, and Druid's should probably get some spell that lets them set camp well.I guess this is predicated on the idea that a modest lifestyle confers no benefits, and things like comfortable would give minor bonuses. Speaking of, here are some suggestions:Cumulatively<table style='width: 100%'><tr><td>Lifestyle</td><td>Bonus</td></tr><tr><td>Comfortable</td><td>Pick one skill. Roll 1d4 and add that to the result of any d20 test using that skill for the next 8 hours. (Basically Guidance on a skill)</td></tr><tr><td>Wealthy</td><td>Aid</td></tr><tr><td>Aristocratic</td><td>Gain the effects of the Resistance cantrip on one damage type for 8 hours. I think that there should also be a social buff here, sentient creatures are more likely to have a positive disposition to you.</td></tr></table></blockquote>
