Speed (Rules) (395-speed)

Most characters and monsters have a Speed statistic that indicates how quickly they can move on a solid surface. This statistic is referred to as land Speed when it's necessary to differentiate it from special Speeds. When you use the Stride action, you move a number of feet equal to your Speed. Whenever a rule mentions your Speed without specifying a type, it's referring to your land Speed. Hover: Some creatures, such as barathus, have a land Speed that represents how fast they can move while hovering within 5 feet of a solid surface. Hovering creatures don't count as flying but might be able to avoid certain types of difficult or hazardous terrain, at the GM's discretion.
