Digging
Prerequisites
- A dig site (marked by a Dig Site sign)
- Excavation equipment (shovel, trowel, etc)
- The Dig skill
Procedure
GM lays out 5 cards. For each face card, you've found an unidentified object. The type of the card signifies the size of the object (J = small, Q = medium, K = large). To identify the object, have someone with the Identify skill examine it for a few minutes.
Non-face cards (i.e. dirt) do not go back into the GM's dig deck. Once you have finished digging, the Dig Site sign is removed. You may only dig once every 30 minutes.
