“That sounds dangerous…”
- Ritual Phrase
- That sounds dangerous…
- Use
- Introduces danger.
- Available
- After a player describes her character doing something.
When a player describes hens main character doing something that risks bodily harm, use this ritual phrase to introduce that risk.
When you do something dangerous, decide how much you’ll put at risk: bruises, cuts, wounds, or life and limb (see Body). Then roll the die.
On a 4, 5, or 6, you succeed! You clear the danger without any problem. On a 1, 2, or 3, you have to make a choice: you can suffer the harm you wagered, or roll again, either by spending a moment of awareness or risking even more (cuts instead of bruises, wounds instead of cuts, or life and limb instead of wounds).
Before you roll, another player can recognize even greater danger by using the ritual phrase, “…very dangerous.”
