Action Checks

^660b84

Whenever an action that has significant difficulty is performed, an Action Check is started. During an action check a d100 is rolled. In order to succeed, the Roll combined with any Saving Throw Modifiers must exceed or match the Difficulty Score. ^256aae

ACs that you force onto a target are called Target Checks. (TCs)

Syntax

(Difficulty Score, Second Score…) DS vs Saving Throw Mods

F: = Fail Outcome
S: = Success Outcome

World Actions

Starlites can influence and interact with the world through World Actions.

Stealth

A character can enter Stealth while not being actively seen by their enemies, i.e. standing in the open or being in Low Cover against an enemy with a height advantage. Being in Stealth prevents direct targeting from enemies or being seen by them. While within 3 tiles of an enemy, they face a Detection AC. The DS of the Detection TC is increased by +40 if the target is not facing the offender.

Detection [TC] = (20 + d20 + User Skills#Cunning) vs Skills#Perception ^cd1504
- Attacks from stealth break Stealth but grant +20 Hit and Crit Modifier. ^a75d04
