Testing a skill

Roll 1d6 per attribute level + skill level (if relevant).

Need 1-2 “6s” for success. 3+ for crit.

Four things can result in modifiers (more dice):

Your gear (+1-3)

The difficulty of your action

Assistance from others (+1 ea)

Prayer and preparatory prayer

Command skill acts as assistance, and comes first. Each 6 acts as a +1 forward.

Talents

The full list appears later in this guide.

Use a talent.

Some talents can only be used once per session, and a few give the

GM 1 DP. Check the full descriptions on p72.

Prayer

When testing a skill, pray to reroll all dice not showing 6s. This is instantaneous.

Give the GM 1 DP.

Preparatory Prayer

Prep challenges characters (and players) to predict the most important skill each

day. For example, a negotiator would pray to

The Merchant

if she has an

important meeting planned that morning. Common favorites include

The Dancer

for melee or

The

Judge

for ranged combat.

At the start of the session, pray to a specific icon for a +1 modifier to rerolls with

that icon any time during the session (i.e. one extra d6).

Pray in a chapel for a +2, instead.
