# Core Gameplay
|
|
|
|
## Skill Checks
|
|
|
|
A player attempting something that could be subject to failure will perform a
|
|
skill check to determine whether they succeed or fail.
|
|
|
|
A skill check is performed by rolling `1d20`, adding the relevant skill, and
|
|
comparing the result to 20. If the result is equal to or greater than `20` then
|
|
the action succeeds. If the result is less than `20` then the action fails.
|
|
|
|
### Critical Rolls
|
|
|
|
If the number rolled on the dice, before adding any other numbers, is exactly
|
|
`20`, the character succeeds at their action no matter what.
|
|
If exactly `1` is rolled, then the character fails their action no matter what.
|
|
|
|
Further consequences, either good or bad, could occur on critical successes or
|
|
fails, at the discretion of the GM.
