The party were able to capture the Familiar that seems to have been close to them. During the Alessi's Kin event.
Captured 1st The Melting.
A character can go without food for a number of days equal to 3 + their Constitution modifier (minimum 1). At the end of each day beyond that limit, a character automatically suffers one level of exhaustion.
A normal day of eating resets the count of days without food to zero.
Currently on 1 Level of Exhaustion due to no bed during the long rest on the 1st The Melting, nor food/ water.
Will continue to gain a level of exhaustion if no bedroll/ similar.
*Requirements,
1/4 pound of food a day - Tiny creature
one gallon of water per day (two waterskins worth of water).
