The DMG says you need to make a fort save or die when you take massive damage (more than 50 hp) from a single attack. But I haven't been able to find what the DC on the Fort Save is. Where can I find that info?

Also, does LG even use the massive damage rule?

It's a straight DC 15 Fort save. Yes, it is a Core rule that LG uses--in the Combat section of the PHB, around page 145, under Injury and Death.

While LG uses the Massive Death rules, it also uses the "No Massive Death from Harm Spells" rule.

Thanks for the responses. I assume LG doesn't use the Massive Damage adjusted by size rule?

You're correct in that assumption, the size rule is a variant rule and therefore not part of LG (though if the Circle wanted to make some variants part of the campaign, that's one that makes at lot of sense to me)...
