Chapter #: Overland Movement

Time

tba

***A normal human can move at normal pace (30 ft. / turn, 300 ft. /min., 3 mph), half-pace (15 ft. / turn, 150 ft. /min., 1.5 mph), or double-pace (60 ft. / turn, 600 ft. /min., 7 mph). Moving at half-pace improves one's chance to notice traps and secret doors, and makes it easier to surprise foes. Moving at double-pace worsens one's chance to notice things, and one can only run so far before succumbing to fatigue.***
