DM's Advice: If there is any chance for the plant to be found, you can use a straight percentile role to see if the animal is present. Common = 50%, Uncommon = 25%, Rare = 10%, Very Rare = 5%. As a general rule, herbs grow in temperate regions, and spices grow in tropical regions. If the plant is new to you, assume it is rare or very rare.
