Defy Danger — Stonetop basic move

When danger looms, the stakes are high, and you do something chancy…

Roll: 2d6 + the stat that fits

When danger looms, the stakes are high, and you do something chancy, check if another move applies. If not, roll…

  • …+STR to power through or test your might
  • …+DEX to employ speed, agility, or finesse
  • …+CON to endure or hold steady
  • …+INT to apply expertise or enact a clever plan
  • …+WIS to exert willpower or rely on your senses
  • …+CHA to charm, bluff, impress, or fit in

On a 10+, you pull it off as well as one could hope; on a 7–9, you can do it, but the GM will present a lesser success, a cost, or a consequence (and maybe a choice between them, or a chance to back down).
