Sweaty conditions describes a temperature range between 90-99°F. the air feels hot and can be uncomfortably stifling for characters. They adapt by choosing light, loose, and breathable attire to combat the heat. The terrain remains dry, allowing for relatively unimpeded travel without weather-related obstacles. Outdoor activities continue, but the excessive warmth might slow down some tasks like farming or construction due to the discomfort caused by the heat.

Settlement life adapts to the heat, with indoor spaces relying on natural ventilation rather than heating sources. Clothing transitions to extremely lightweight and breathable fabrics, prioritizing comfort over protection. Homes aim to maintain a cooler indoor temperature through design or architecture that promotes airflow. Resource management remains stable, with little impact on food preservation, while fresh produce might be more sensitive to the heat, requiring more careful handling.

Community gatherings persist in this warm climate, albeit with fewer outdoor activities due to the discomfort caused by the heat. Trade and commerce adjust to the conditions, offering goods suited to the warmer climate. Character interactions maintain their essence within communities, though activities might shift to shaded or cooler areas.

Exploration encounters heightened weather-related challenges due to the intense heat. Quests might face delays or hindrances as characters struggle with the heat. Predictable wildlife behavior might change significantly, with creatures seeking shelter or becoming more aggressive due to discomfort caused by the extreme temperatures. Encounters with creatures accustomed to hotter climates become more common.

Dungeon exploration could become more challenging as the heat influences the conditions within. Characters might find dungeons stuffier or more uncomfortable to navigate due to the elevated temperature. Challenges within dungeons, unrelated to temperature, offer opportunities for adventurers to tackle obstacles despite the unpleasant heat.
