Movement and Position
On your turn you can move a distance up to your speed. You can use as much or as little of your speed as you like on your turn, following the rules here. (91)
-
Your movement can include jumping, climbing, swimming, crawling, and flying. These different modes of movement can be combined with walking, or they can constitute your entire move.
-
Combatants often find themselves lying on the ground, either because they are knocked down or because they throw themselves down. In the game, they are prone.
-
You can break up your movement on your turn. If you have more than one speed, such as your walking speed and a flying speed, you can switch back and forth between your speeds during your move.
However you are moving, you deduct the distance of each part of your move from your speed until it is used up or until you are done moving.
Other limitations on moving:
-
Every foot of movement in difficult terrain costs 1 extra foot.
-
There are limitations regarding moving through a creature's space, how many creatures can surround another creature, and squeezing into a smaller space.
-
You can be slowed down by armor, a heavy load, or exhaustion.
