Turning Feral / Surviving In The Wasteland.

Turning Feral.

Ghouls need two things to survive and avoid becoming feral radiation and hydration. They do not need to eat and only need rest to Regain lost Hit points.

Radiation.

The most important thing to a ghoul is Radiation without their bodies begin to decay, their brain tissue begins to deteriorate and over time they become Feral. To avoid this Ghouls must Absorb Radiation From the environment to combat Radiation lost over time. Every hour ghouls lose 2 rads into the environment and theretofore must take 2 Rads an hour to combat this.

Whenever in Radiation ghouls can absorb radiation at a higher rate than humans with the ability to absorb 10 rads by spending 10 minutes in a low radiation area. Ghouls tend to sleep in irradiated areas where possible to avoiding losing Rads as they rest.

If a ghoul loses all of their Radiation to the environment they will take lose 1 point of sanity every 4 hours

Hydration

Ghouls must consume twice as much water in a day as a normal human to avoid becoming feral. This means every day in normal temperature they must drink 2 litres of water and in a hot environment they must drink between 4 and 6 litres depending on temperature.

If a ghoul does not meet the required amount of water in a day they will lose 1 sanity point.

Sanity points.

A ghoul has a number of sanity points equal to their endurance score plus half of their Intelligence score (rounded down)

For example a character with 7 endurance and 5 intelligence would have a sanity score of 9 points and once the player had lost 9 points the next point lost would turn them feral, the only way to regain sanity points is to not lose 1 for 3 days.

So a player with 9 lost sanity points, would need to avoid losing a point for 27 days to recover all of the lost points.
