Pace Modifiers
Three travel paces — Cautious, Normal, Fast. Each adjusts speed, the Journey Check TN, and the dice to avoid encounters.
| Pace | Speed | Journey TN | Encounter Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cautious | ×0.75 | TN 9 | +2 dice to avoid encounters. |
| Normal | ×1 | TN 11 | Standard. |
| Fast | ×1.5 | TN 13 | −2 dice to avoid encounters. |
Cautious doubles your time but halves your danger. Fast does the opposite. Most cross-country travel uses Normal; the choice to deviate is itself a narrative beat.
