Falling
To determine the potential damage a creature or object receives from a fall, calculate a Drop Factor (DF)
- DF = (Fall Height × Weight)1/3
To use kilograms & meters, multiply the DF by 2
Due to terminal velocity, the maximum DF = 5×Weight1/2
Select a Terrain Die
d3 for snow or sand
d6 for adobe or wood
d12 for rock or metal
Damage
Multiply the DF by a die roll based on the Terrain type
Accidental Falls
Subtract a Strength or Dexterity save from the DF
Intentional Jumps
Make a DC 20 Intelligence or Wisdom check to lower the terrain die one level
