Jumping
A jumping action is used concurrently with a move action. Characters must still move the number of feet that they jump through movement actions. The following table of jump distance DCs assumes that the character is getting a 20 foot running start. If this is not the case, the DC goes up by 15.
| Action | DC |
|---|---|
| Lateral Jump | |
| - 5 feet | 10 |
| - 10 feet | 15 |
| - 15 feet | 25 |
| - 20 feet | 35 |
| - 25 feet | 45 |
| - 30 feet | 55 |
| Vertical Jump* | |
| -1 foot | 8 |
| - 2 feet | 12 |
| - 3 feet | 18 |
| - 4 feet | 24 |
| - 5 feet | 30 |
| Reduce the fall damage of a downward jump by 10 feet | 15 |
- This is in addition to vertical reach. The average human can reach 8 feet without jumping
