Destiny Die

Attribute, Attack, and Damage checks automatically roll a special twenty-sided Destiny Die that can affect the result. This represents luck, fate, and the influence of the Forceā€”and the effect takes place regardless of the check's success or failure.

During combat, when you roll a Destiny Die effect, you cannot roll another until the start of your next turn. Destiny Die effects include:

  • Attribute: Complication. You narrate an unexpected and unrelated complication that results during their PC's check, and the GM adds a secondary detail. For example: you succeed at a check to hack into a computer console and decide the Complication is that a unit of enemy soldiers stumble onto you at that moment.
  • Attribute: Opportunity. You narrate an unexpected and unrelated opportunity that results during their PC's check, and the GM adds a secondary detail. For example: you fail at a check to lose your pursuers down a side alley and decide the Opportunity is that a nearby door has been left ajar.
  • Attack: Gain Momentum. You can take one additional action before the end of your turn.
  • Attack: Dramatic Reversal. A nearby enemy immediately takes an action after your attack resolves.
  • Damage: Vicious. Increase your attack's damage by 5.
  • Damage: Glancing. Reduce your attack's damage by 5.
