− | + | Speed is a numerical indicator of how fast something moves with lower numbers being faster. This is the value used in the [[Creature_token#S|Creature token]] for SPEED, '''not''' the same value as that which appears on the screen as Speed in [[Adventure mode]]. (In the adventure mode speed stat, higher numbers are faster.) | |

− | Your adventurer's speed | + | Your adventurer's speed is displayed at the bottom of the screen. Higher values mean that the adventurer moves, acts and attacks faster. Many non-combat actions are also affected by speed, including eating. It is usually in an Adventurer's interest to have as high a speed as possible as this allows for faster movement and more attacks relative to an enemy. An adventurer with low speed will notice both friendly and enemy units taking multiple turns for every turn they take. |
