====== Track a Creature ======
{{tag>activity exploration}}

You attempt to find and follow the physical trail left by a foe or another creature. 
**Roll+FOR**. You gain favour if the ground is soft or the creature is bleeding. You suffer slight if the trail is more than a day old or if it has rained.

  * **Complete Success**:  You follow the trail.  If [[ironbound:rules:activities:travel_overland|Travelling Overland]], you cover a hex in normal time.
  * **Success**:  You follow the trail.  If Travelling Overland, it takes one additional hour to cover a hex.
  * **Partial Success**:  You follow the trail, but it is taxing.  If Travelling Overland, it takes one additional hour to cover a hex as normal.  In addition, you must choose a Bad Thing.
  * **Failure**:  You lose the trail.  You must [[ironbound:rules:activities:Search]] for the trail again, and if you fail to locate it, you cannot try again until the environment or conditions change significantly.
  * **Complete Failure**:  You followed a false trail.  If you are Travelling Overland, you lose one hour of time.  In addition, you must choose a Bad Thing from the list below.

----
==== Bad Things ====
  * You are so focused on the ground that you are [[ironbound:conditions:Surprised]] if combat begins.
  * The trail leads through particularly difficult terrain; if Travelling Overland, you must spend two additional hours to cross a hex.
  * You inadvertently leave a very obvious trail of your own.
