Message: <blockquote data-quote="Gregor" data-source="post: 5461720" data-attributes="member: 11751">You all walk through the cold wind for the rest of the day.  The road is as Torrent said: hilly, rough and tiring.  Gate Pass is about 7 or 8 miles behind you now and the sun is setting on the horizon, changing the grey clouds into a deep dark blue.  Its almost night fall.Exhausted, especially given your few hours of sleep last night, you arrive at a well-used campsite in a large natural stone overhang along the side of the road.  The overhang provides shelter from rain or snow and its shape allows for some relief from the cold wind.  A large fire pit sits in the middle and you can see, from the ruts, that many a wagon has rested here.  You figure it must be a common stopping place for merchants or other travelers as there is a large stack of fire wood piled up which forms a wall between the overhang and the elements.You all follow Torrent under the overhang, which is high enough for even Bannock not to worry about hitting his head and take a seat.  Torrent blows on her hands and asks: "Does anyone have any flint and steel, I forgot to pack some.  We should get a fire going and then set up tents.  The sun is already beyond the cliffs and its only going to get darker and colder.  I've got a bottle of whiskey on me, I'll pop it open once we've got some flames going." [GM]I'll leave it up to you to mark off any food and water you consume tonight.  Also, check how many tents, blankets and/or cold weather outfits you have.  When outdoors, you'll need to make a Fortitude save vs. DC 15 each morning or be fatigued for the day due to the temperature.  Cold weather outfits grant you a +5 on your roll.  I'll leave you to manage those saving throws each morning.[/GM]</blockquote>
