The Exalt using this charm doesn't need to worry about food while he's in the wilderness, as the small spirits of the wood provide for him everything he needs to survive. While this charm is active the character need not worry about drinking bad water, and can find enough fruits, nuts and berries to survive indefinately in the wilderness with only the slightest bit of effort (and taking up no time each day). The use of this charm is automatic in even the most slightly verdent terrain but becomes slightly harder to utilize in the forsaken dunes of the South, the chill artic extremes of the North, and the endless expanses of water in the West. In such locations the Dragon-Blooded must make a Stamina + Survival roll, difficulty 2, to find enough each day to survive in the region. Note that there are many individual locations in each Direction where this roll is not required (a oasis or scrubplain in the South, or most islands in the West). This charm only provides enough food for the Dragon-Blooded himself, and he cannot feed another in his stead.
