2 Questions! Camping, skill use, and light sources.

[chrispwolf]

Do you let players use “crafty” skills like armorer, healer for poultices, and alchemist during the adventure phase? I don’t see this prohibited by any rules, but I feel like I have read somewhere that GM’s don’t allow it.

Also, do light sources reset along with turns on when you camp? Like if I have one turn left on my lantern, and then camp, does it go back to 3?

Yes, but it depends on the situation. Quickly beating the dents out of a helmet would probably be doable if the character had a hammer. Doing a full repair on chain or plate would not. It depends on what they have available to them, what they want to do, and how long they want to spend doing it. Find the Red Wizard’s secret lab and you can do alchemy till the kobolds come home. Try alchemy in the kobolds’ dungeon cell and you probably won’t get too far.

I would say “no”. If you had one turn of oil left in your lantern when you ade camp, you have one turn of oil left in your lantern when you leave camp. Unless you have a supply of oil with you, then you can refill it from your supply.
