====== Keep a Watch ======

**Time Required**:  1 hour\\
**Skill**:  [[legacy:skills:Perception]] (Untrained)

When the party takes a rest---short or long---it is wise for people to keep an eye open for possible trouble.  The Director should request a [[legacy:skills:Perception]] skill check from you, even if nothing is about to attack the party. This Perception check is made against any attacker's [[legacy:skills:Stealth]] skill, and the Director should make this skill check in secret.
  * **Success**:  If there //is// something out there, you've spotted it.  Neither side has Surprise.  
  * **Failure**:  You are caught looking the other way, and any ambusher will have Surprise against you.

Keeping a Watch actually covers a three-hour period; the one hour simply represents that time spent on watch duties, rather than other tasks, over that three-hour time period.
