+===== Snake Hunting Rules =====
+Once a week the snake hunter makes an animal handling check. If he makes it (11+) he comes back with a dead rattlesnake. For every three points he beats the target of eleven he gets an extra one (14+ = two snakes, 17+ = three snakes, etc.)  On a roll of a natural one, he has hurt himself (or been poisoned himself) and must rest for a month.
+Additionally, each week there is a one in ten chance that the snake hunter runs into something on his travels that ambushes him as he searches the rock outcroppings along the [[King Godwin River]] where snakes like to sun themselves. We can play that as an encounter, or resolve whether he survives that with a single die roll as needed.
