| d6 | Hardships Endured |
|---|---|
| 1 | Nearly Drowned. You hid underwater to avoid detection by enemies and held your breath for an extremely long time. Just before you would have died, you had a revelation about your existence. |
| 2 | Captured. You spent months enduring thirst, starvation, and torture at the hands of your enemy, but you never broke. |
| 3 | Sacrifice. You enabled the escape of some people, but at great cost to yourself. |
| 4 | Juggernaut. No reasonable explanation can explain how you survived a particular battle. Every arrow and bolt missed you. You slew scores of enemies single-handedly. |
| 5 | Stowaway. For days, you hid in the bilge of an enemy ship, surviving on brackish water and foolhardy rats. At the right moment, you crept up to the deck and took over the ship on your own. |
| 6 | Leave None Behind. You carried an injured person for miles to avoid capture and death. |
You can move twice the normal amount of time (up to 16 hours) each day before being subject to the effect of a forced march. Additionally, you are much less likely to be affected by disease from living conditions. You time living on the road has trained your immune system well.
