Cold Weather Checks and Torches

[Steve Shippy aka Beerwolf]

I'm prepping for Reign of Winter, but had a question. I've searched RAW and the boards for any bonus to the fortitude checks for winter exposure when a Character carries a torch. Did I miss it somewhere? If not, I've been thinking about giving any Character carrying a torch a +1 circumstance bonus to the check. Thoughts?

[In My Humble Opinion]

A torch isn't that warm. You'd have to hold it under your face, but then you risk setting yourself on fire and... That's just sad.

So, I probably wouldn't give a bonus.

Sure, given that a Cold Weather Outfit gives a whole +5 I think +1 for a torch isn't too overgenerous (though it is a little generous).
