Core Mechanics[edit]
Stat checks[edit]
All rolls are roll-under, meaning you have to roll below your stat on a d20 (the only exception to this rule are damage rolls). NPCs never roll. For example, if a monster attack, the attacked player can do a Strength or Dexterity roll to avoid the attack, but the monster itself doesn't roll (once again, the only exception to this rule are damage rolls).
There is no saving throw. Instead, a stat check is rolled depending on the nature of the danger.
Advantage & Disadvantage[edit]
The game borrows the advantage/disadvantage rule from D&D 5th. When you have advantage on a test, roll 2d20 and keep the lowest as your result. When you have disadvantage on a test, roll 2d20 and keep the highest as your result.
