This tool allows players of the fifth edition of a popular tabletop role-playing game to determine the maximum distance their characters can cover with a jump. It typically requires inputting a character’s Strength score and any relevant modifiers to calculate both standing and running long jump distances, as well as high jump height. For example, a character with a Strength score of 14 might be able to long jump a certain distance based on this score alone, with the potential for increased distance if they take a running start.
Accurate calculation of these distances is crucial for successful navigation of in-game environments and for resolving challenges that require physical agility. It prevents disputes regarding movement capabilities and allows for more realistic and consistent application of the game’s rules related to athletics. The need for such a calculation arose from the game’s mechanics regarding movement and the resolution of actions involving physical prowess, becoming particularly relevant as players interacted with increasingly complex and varied terrain.
