The Handbook
Food, Drink and Energy
Three bars tick down while you play, and only Food and Drink can kill you. The purple one is Energy: it is spent by activity, it refills while you sit and faster at an inn, and at zero the bar turns to grey stripes and you are Exhausted.
The bars at a glance
| Bar | What it is | What refills it | What happens at zero |
|---|---|---|---|
| Food | Hunger. Ticks down as you play. | Eating. Cooked food goes further than raw. | Damage over time and weakness. It can kill you. |
| Drink | Thirst. Ticks down faster than hunger. | Water, ale, mead, anything drinkable. | The same, and it arrives sooner. |
| Energy | The purple bar. How rested you are, spent by activity. | Sitting down. An inn is faster. Not while hungry or thirsty. | Grey stripes, and you are Exhausted until you rest. |
