Adventuring

Stamina, Mana and Resting

Stamina is a resource that represents your ability to exert physical effort. It’s used to perform advanced combat maneuvers, refill your Health, and perform strenuous tasks. Mana represents your capacity for mental activity, including magic. Mana is used to heal and maintain control over multiple crytures, activate magical artifacts, and perform complex mental tasks.
You can regain Stamina and Mana by sleeping. For every 2 hours of sleep, a character regains ¼ of their maximum Stamina and Mana. However, if that character hasn't eaten in the last 24 hours, they suffer a random injury when they awake.
Outside of combat, you can spend 10 minutes to take a short rest. During a short rest, you may refill your Health by hydrating yourself with 1 unit of water and spending 1 Stamina. You may also meditate to refill a cryture’s Health by spending 1 Mana.
