SURVIVAL

Description: In the modern consumer age, most folks have forgotten how to survive without a store close by. Not you, though. A combination of learned knowledge and animal instinct helps you locate sources of food, water, shelter, and relative safety. You can probably find your way through the wilderness or urban wastelands, puzzling out the local hazards long enough to keep you alive… at least for now. Very basic survival skills apply to almost any environment; advanced tasks, however – or extremely harsh or alien environments – demand specific Survival specialties. A bit of backpacking experience, for example, won’t help you much in Death Valley or downtown Mumbai. A variant on this Skill, Urban Survival, gives you the expertise to live off the streets, dive Dumpsters, and figure out where – and where not – to grab a nap in the cities and suburbs of this World of Darkness.
