Encounter adjustments:
The following are encounter adjustments that may help with deciding if an encounter will happen:
In the bounds of civilization (city, town, village)
Carrying money openly in a public place:
Dark hours: +7 added to the roll of the dice for an encounter check.
Light hours: +5 added to the roll of the dice for an encounter check.
In the wilderness (everywhere but in a civilization)
Fire:
There will be one additional encounter check if an unconcealed fire is built at night. If a fire does attract an encounter, roll 2 times and keep the one that best fits the scene.
