====== Take A Long Rest ======
{{tag>activity rest}}

A Long Rest is a period of extended relaxation and sleep lasting at least **twelve hours**. During this time, the following schedule must be observed:
  * Eight hours must be spent sleeping or in deep meditation.  The character recovers all lost stamina during this time.
  * One hour must be spent on personal maintenance, such as eating a meal or cleaning equipment.
  * The remaining three hours may be used for Rest Activities.

**Eating a Meal**:  You must mark off one day of rations, or else pay two copper pennies for shelter and food if you are in a friendly community.  If you fail to do so, you become [[ironbound:conditions:Hungry]].

  * [[ironbound:rules:activities:Craft an Item]].
  * [[ironbound:rules:activities:Forge a Document]].
