Environmental Fire Damage Rate

[jdounis]

Hello, in 6E2 pg 150 the details about damage for large fires in the environment gives the damage per 1m traveled in the fire, but what about just staying in the fire? In what rate is the damage applied?

What about fast characters that could get out from the fire in little time despite traveling the whole distance?

 

Thank you in advance!

Characters who “stand in the fire” rather than moving through it take damage from the fire every Segment they remain within it.

 

The damage from passing through a fire depends on the number of meters traveled through, as discussed in the rules. How slowly or quickly the character moves through the fire doesn’t matter — unless, of course, the GM chooses to take that into account.
