Plot Die in Rotted Capes | World Anvil

Plot Die

Plot Dice are additional dice that characters can spend on any roll (but only one plot die per roll) to influence the game. They can be used to:
 
  • Ignore wound penalties for a scene
  • Negate a flaw triggered by the Editor in Chief
  • Add a plot die to a single power, attribute or skill action roll
  • Add the result of a plot die to a single attribute or power rank for a single action
  • Add the result of a plot die to a defense against a single attack
  • Remove a Push, Stagger, Stunned or Crippled condition
  •  Automatically succeed on an action roll to avoid death due to being Vanquished by Wounds
  • Ignore the result of a failed Wound Recovery action roll
  • Create an advantageous situation
  • Break the rules (with permission of the Editor in Chief)
Every player starts with a number of plot dice equal to their lowest attribute score. The size of the plot dice are equal to the lowest attribute die.
  Plot dice refresh at the beginning of every story arc and do not carry over from one story arc to another.
