[QUOTE="Celebrim, post: 6353563, member: 4937"] In order to sleep in my game, you have to make an endurance check - generally DC 10. Failure leaves you fatigued until you can get a restful night sleep. Various circumstance bonuses or penalties apply depending on the conditions you are trying to sleep in - for example basic shelter gives you a +2 bonus (and may provide protection from inclement weather) and a proper bed roll gives a +2 bonus, or +4 for the combination. (You'd be surprised, or maybe not, how fast the party purchases bedding, tents, and such for travelling when they learn that.) A real bed, clean sheets, and proper shelter is a +8 bonus - which means there is a real point to paying for an inn or finding a 'homely house'. However, armor check penalties always apply if you try to sleep in armor. There is also a feat called 'Campaigner' that basically lets you ignore all penalties to your attempt to sleep including all armor check penalties provided you are proficient in the armor you are sleeping in. And of course, the Endurance feat definitely helps. If you are an Explorer, it's not hard to come by an effective bonus of +13 even at low level, so sleeping in light armor is very doable. Plate on the other hand... [/QUOTE]
