Addiction

While chems may grant helpful benefits they are not without fault. With every dose one takes, one must succeed a Constitution or Intelligence saving throw. On a failure, they are addicted. They may repeat this saving throw at the end of a long rest. While addicted to a chem, they do not receive its benefits and must take another dose to become immune to its addiction effect for 1 minute. The following are chems one can be addicted to, its addiction DC, and its addiction effect.

• Alcohol: 18. Disadvantage on Dexterity and Charisma saving throws and skills.
• Jet: 18. Your movement speed is decreased by 5 feet and you have disadvantage on Dexterity saving throws.
• Turbo: 15. You are paralyzed for 1 minute randomly every 3 hours.
• Mentats: 10. You have disadvantage on Intelligence checks and saving throws.
• Psycho:15. Once every minute and at the beginning of each of your turns, you must succeed a DC 12 Charisma saving throw or attack the closest creature.
• X-Cell: 15. All ability scores are decreased by -2.
• Med-X: 15. Your hit point maximum is decreased by 20%.
• Hydra: 12. You gain disadvantage on Constitution and Dexterity saving throws.
• Day Tripper: 12. Disadvantage on Charisma saving throws.
• Daddy-O: 12. -5 to Intelligence and Wisdom saving throws and skills.

Skill Magazines

While not technically medical supplies, skill magazines function similarly. Each skill magazine typically costs about 25 caps. A skill magazine may be read as an action, crumbling the ancient paper in the process, thus destroying it. When read, you gain one the following depending on the magazine for 1 minute:

• Boxing Times - your next attack that deals melee damage has advantage.
• Fixin' Things - your next Arcana check has advantage.
• Future Weapons Today - your next attack that deals energy damage has advantage.
• Lad's Life - your next Survival check has advantage.
• ¡La Fantoma! - your next Stealth check has advantage.
• Locksmith's Reader - your next Sleight of Hand check has advantage.
• Meeting People - your next Persuasion check has advantage.
• Milsurp Review - your next attack that deals ballistic damage has advantage.
• Patriot's Cookbook - your next attack that deals explosive damage has advantage.
• Programmer's Digest - your next Investigation check has advantage.
• Salesman Weekly - your next Deception check has advantage.
• Tales of Chivalrie - your next Intimidation check has advantage.
• Today's Physician - your next Medicine check has advantage.
• True Police Stories - your next Insight check has advantage.

Food

In the wasteland, food is few and far between. Each food item has a food score. If your food score for a day is less than 3 at the end of the day, your Starvation count goes up by 1. Your Starvation count can go up to your Starvation Threshold (ST) is equal to 1/4 your Constitution score rounded down. Fulfilling your food requirement for each day decreases your Starvation count by 1. Every time your ST is passed, you gain 1 level of exhaustion. Every time you reduce your Starvation count below your ST, you lose 1 level of exhaustion.

One meat can be cut into 2 meats of 1 size category lower as a DC 15 Animal Handling check. On a failure, it instead becomes 1 meat of 1 size category lower. Rotten food has half the weight and food score of the original food. Pre-War food can not become rotten.

On eating raw meat or eggs, you must succeed a DC 15 Constitution or Charisma saving throw. On a failure, you vomit. You do not benefit from the item’s food score and the food becomes inedible.

Raw meat and plants can be turned into a food ration with a DC 12 Survival check, so long as you have a fire and food worth a score of 2 or more. You can bulk make rations, which is recommended because if you fail, the result will be 1/4 the intended rations.
