Stealth is the ability to hide and move quietly.

If the character @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{fails} the roll, the enemy realizes something is amiss and begins actively searching for whatever roused them.

\n

Once foes are alerted and active, Stealth is opposed by @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} (a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{group roll} if there are many foes.

Sneaking through dry leaves might subtract 2 from the Stealth roll, for example, while spotting someone in the dark uses the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{Illumination} penalty (−4). Don’t apply the same modifier to both rolls, however. If Stealth is at −2 for the leaves, don’t give Notice a +2 for them as well.

Sneak Attack: Sneaking up close enough to make a melee attack always requires an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} Stealth roll versus the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice}, whether the guard is actively looking for trouble or not.

Movement: In combat, characters roll Stealth each turn as a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{free action} at the end of their move or any action the GM thinks might draw attention.

Out of combat, the distance moved depends entirely on the situation.

\n

Stealth is the ability to hide and move quietly. A simple @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{success} on a Stealth roll means the character avoids detection if enemies aren’t particularly alert. If the character @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{fails} the roll, the enemy realizes something is amiss and begins actively searching for whatever roused them.

\n

Once foes are alerted and active, Stealth is opposed by @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} (a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{group roll} if there are many foes.

\n

The GM should apply any circumstantial penalties to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} rolls for @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{darkness}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Cover and Obstacles]{cover}, noise, distractions, and any difference in the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Size and Scale]{Scale} (just like when attacking). Sneaking through dry leaves might subtract 2 from the Stealth roll, for example, while spotting someone in the dark uses the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{Illumination} penalty (−4). Don’t apply the same modifier to both rolls, however. If Stealth is at −2 for the leaves, don’t give Notice a +2 for them as well.

\n

Sneak Attack: Sneaking up close enough to make a melee attack always requires an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} Stealth roll versus the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice}, whether the guard is actively looking for trouble or not. If successful, the victim is @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Distracted and Vulnerable]{Vulnerable} to the attacker, but only until the attacker’s turn ends. With a raise, the attacker has @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.The Drop]{The Drop} instead.

\n

Movement: In combat, characters roll Stealth each turn as a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{free action} at the end of their move or any action the GM thinks might draw attention.

\n

Out of combat, the distance moved depends entirely on the situation. The GM might want a roll every minute if the group is sneaking around the perimeter of a defensive position, or every few miles if they’re trying to quietly walk the path through a dark forest without alerting the creatures that live there.

\n

Persuasion is the ability to convince others to do what you want through reason, cajoling, deception, rewards, or other friendly means. Persuasion isn’t mind control. It can change someone’s attitude but not their goals. A bandit may let you keep a sentimental piece of jewelry with a good Persuasion roll but still takes all your other goods.

\n

When used to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Support]{Support} allies it’s an unopposed roll. If the target is resistant, it’s an @JournalEntry[JBxsGv2wAoAmoCDe]{opposed} roll vs. the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Spirit}. The GM should modify the roll as she sees fit based on roleplaying, any pertinent @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Edges]{Edges} or @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Hindrances]{Hindrances} that affect the conversation, and the circumstances.

\n

Reaction Level: How much a person is willing to cooperate depends largely on their attitude toward whoever’s talking to them. The Game Master can decide how nonplayer characters feel based on the setting, or roll on the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-tables.Reaction Table]{Reaction Table} if she has no preconceived notions.

\n

@Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Success} improves the target’s attitude one level and a raise improves it two. Further increases aren’t generally possible in the same encounter—it takes individuals a little time to adjust their biases.

\n

@Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Failure} means the target won’t change his mind this scene or until the situation changes in some important way. A @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Critical Failure} also reduces the target’s attitude two levels.

\n

Only one roll should generally be allowed per interaction unless new information is revealed, a substantial reward is offered, etc.

\n

Networking: Characters can also use Persuasion as a “macro skill,” simulating a few hours or an evening’s time hobnobbing and socializing to gain favors or information. See @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Networking]{Networking}.

\n

Stealth is the ability to hide and move quietly. A simple @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{success} on a Stealth roll means the character avoids detection if enemies aren’t particularly alert. If the character @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{fails} the roll, the enemy realizes something is amiss and begins actively searching for whatever roused them.

\n

Once foes are alerted and active, Stealth is opposed by @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} (a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{group roll} if there are many foes.

\n

The GM should apply any circumstantial penalties to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} rolls for @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{darkness}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Cover and Obstacles]{cover}, noise, distractions, and any difference in the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Size and Scale]{Scale} (just like when attacking). Sneaking through dry leaves might subtract 2 from the Stealth roll, for example, while spotting someone in the dark uses the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{Illumination} penalty (−4). Don’t apply the same modifier to both rolls, however. If Stealth is at −2 for the leaves, don’t give Notice a +2 for them as well.

\n

Sneak Attack: Sneaking up close enough to make a melee attack always requires an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} Stealth roll versus the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice}, whether the guard is actively looking for trouble or not.

\n

Movement: In combat, characters roll Stealth each turn as a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{free action} at the end of their move or any action the GM thinks might draw attention.

\n

Out of combat, the distance moved depends entirely on the situation. The GM might want a roll every minute if the group is sneaking around the perimeter of a defensive position, or every few miles if they’re trying to quietly walk the path through a dark forest without alerting the creatures that live there.

\n

Stealth is the ability to hide and move quietly. A simple @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{success} on a Stealth roll means the character avoids detection if enemies aren’t particularly alert. If the character @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{fails} the roll, the enemy realizes something is amiss and begins actively searching for whatever roused them.

\n

Once foes are alerted and active, Stealth is opposed by @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} (a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{group roll} if there are many foes.

\n

The GM should apply any circumstantial penalties to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} rolls for @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{darkness}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Cover and Obstacles]{cover}, noise, distractions, and any difference in the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Size and Scale]{Scale} (just like when attacking). Sneaking through dry leaves might subtract 2 from the Stealth roll, for example, while spotting someone in the dark uses the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{Illumination} penalty (−4). Don’t apply the same modifier to both rolls, however. If Stealth is at −2 for the leaves, don’t give Notice a +2 for them as well.

\n

Sneak Attack: Sneaking up close enough to make a melee attack always requires an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} Stealth roll versus the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice}, whether the guard is actively looking for trouble or not. If successful, the victim is @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Distracted and Vulnerable]{Vulnerable} to the attacker, but only until the attacker’s turn ends. With a raise, the attacker has @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.The Drop]{The Drop} instead.

\n

Movement: In combat, characters roll Stealth each turn as a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{free action} at the end of their move or any action the GM thinks might draw attention.

\n

Out of combat, the distance moved depends entirely on the situation.

\n

Intimidation is the art of frightening an opponent so that he backs down, reveals information, or flees.

\n

Intimidation is an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed roll} resisted by the opponent’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Spirit}. In combat, this is a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Test]{Test}. Out of combat, a successful roll means the foe backs down for the most part, reveals some information, or slinks away when the opportunity presents itself.

\n

A @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{raise} might mean he backs down for the remainder of the scene, spills all the beans, or runs away as fast as he can.

\n

In or out of combat, a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Critical Failure} means the target is immune to this character’s Intimidation attempts for the remainder of this encounter!

Networking: Intimidation can also be used as a “macro” skill to simulate several hours of working the streets. See @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Networking]{Networking} to see how to crack some heads for favors or information.

\n

Stealth is the ability to hide and move quietly. A simple @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{success} on a Stealth roll means the character avoids detection if enemies aren’t particularly alert. If the character @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{fails} the roll, the enemy realizes something is amiss and begins actively searching for whatever roused them.

\n

Once foes are alerted and active, Stealth is opposed by @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} (a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{group roll} if there are many foes.

\n

Sneaking through dry leaves might subtract 2 from the Stealth roll, for example, while spotting someone in the dark uses the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{Illumination} penalty (−4). Don’t apply the same modifier to both rolls, however. If Stealth is at −2 for the leaves, don’t give Notice a +2 for them as well.

\n

Sneak Attack: Sneaking up close enough to make a melee attack always requires an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} Stealth roll versus the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice}, whether the guard is actively looking for trouble or not. If successful, the victim is @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Distracted and Vulnerable]{Vulnerable} to the attacker, but only until the attacker’s turn ends. With a raise, the attacker has @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.The Drop]{The Drop} instead.

\n

Movement: In combat, characters roll Stealth each turn as a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{free action} at the end of their move or any action the GM thinks might draw attention.

\n

Out of combat, the distance moved depends entirely on the situation.

\n

Persuasion is the ability to convince others to do what you want through reason, cajoling, deception, rewards, or other friendly means. Persuasion isn’t mind control. It can change someone’s attitude but not their goals. A bandit may let you keep a sentimental piece of jewelry with a good Persuasion roll but still takes all your other goods.

\n

When used to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Support]{Support} allies it’s an unopposed roll. If the target is resistant, it’s an @JournalEntry[JBxsGv2wAoAmoCDe]{opposed} roll vs. the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Spirit}.

\n

Reaction Level: How much a person is willing to cooperate depends largely on their attitude toward whoever’s talking to them. The Game Master can decide how nonplayer characters feel based on the setting, or roll on the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-tables.Reaction Table]{Reaction Table} if she has no preconceived notions.

\n

@Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Success} improves the target’s attitude one level and a raise improves it two. Further increases aren’t generally possible in the same encounter—it takes individuals a little time to adjust their biases.

\n

Persuasion is the ability to convince others to do what you want through reason, cajoling, deception, rewards, or other friendly means. Persuasion isn’t mind control. It can change someone’s attitude but not their goals. A bandit may let you keep a sentimental piece of jewelry with a good Persuasion roll but still takes all your other goods.

\n

When used to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Support]{Support} allies it’s an unopposed roll. If the target is resistant, it’s an @JournalEntry[JBxsGv2wAoAmoCDe]{opposed} roll vs. the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Spirit}.

\n

Reaction Level: How much a person is willing to cooperate depends largely on their attitude toward whoever’s talking to them. The Game Master can decide how nonplayer characters feel based on the setting, or roll on the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-tables.Reaction Table]{Reaction Table} if she has no preconceived notions.

\n

@Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Success} improves the target’s attitude one level and a raise improves it two. Further increases aren’t generally possible in the same encounter—it takes individuals a little time to adjust their biases.

\n

@Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Failure} means the target won’t change his mind this scene or until the situation changes in some important way. A @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Critical Failure} also reduces the target’s attitude two levels.

Only one roll should generally be allowed per interaction unless new information is revealed, a substantial reward is offered, etc.

In either case, dispelling an opponent’s power is an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed roll} of arcane skills (with a -2 modifier if the rival’s power is of another type such as magic vs. miracles, psionics vs. weird science, etc.).

\n

If the dispelling character wins, the targeted power ends immediately (or fails if it was countered with the usual results of failure). With a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{raise}, the recipient of the dispelled power is also @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Distracted and Vulnerable]{Distracted}.

\n

Divination allows the caster to contact otherworldly beings or forces to gain information.

\n

Preparing the spell takes one uninterrupted minute, and must be done at a site relevant to the spirit being contacted. If speaking with a ghost, for example, the conversation should occur at its grave, where it was killed, or with a personal object in hand. Oracles may only be engaged at temples, fire spirits near open flames, and so on.

\n

After the preparation time is complete, the caster makes her arcane skill roll. @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Success} allows her to engage with the spirit and ask it any questions she might have. The entity must answer to the best of its ability, as directly or ambiguously as the Game Master feels fits the spirit’s personality and the feel of her campaign. A @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{raise} means the spirit is more helpful, knowledgeable, or direct than usual (whether it wants to be or not). The type of entity contacted determines how it communicates. Spirits in the netherworld tend to know only those things pertinent to their life and death—and they may not even know the identity of their killer if the person was masked or unseen.

\n

Likewise, nature spirits know only about their local environs, demons know only about the affairs they’re directly involved in, and so on. The Game Master must decide what the entity knows based on its background, origin, and personality. Once a spirit has been conversed with it may not be contacted again for 24 hours. The Game Master may extend this to a community of spirits in a single place, such as water spirits in a babbling brook or nameless spirits in a mass grave.

\n

Mind wipe removes a target’s memories, a terrible violation in most civilized societies. The power is @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} by a victim’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Smarts} and requires a full minute of mental struggle. The victim must be conscious during this time, so if not restrained he can simply move out of @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Range]{Range}.

\n

If @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{successful}, the victim forgets a single event (up to about 30 minutes of time). A @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{raise} removes a complex memory of several hours.

\n

If the defender wins, the caster cannot affect him with mind wipe for 24 hours. (Others may reattempt the power, however.)

\n

The memory remains missing but strong evidence that challenges its “logic” allows a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Smarts} roll at -2 to remember fragments determined by the GM.

\n

Object reading is the ability to see the past of an inanimate object, discovering who held it, where it’s been, and what it might have been used for. The object has no sentience of its own — the caster simply sees and hears visions of the past that took place in its presence.

\n

@Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Success} allows the character to see events that occurred within 10 yards up to about five years past. A @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{raise} increases this to 100 years and 20 yards. The caster can “fast forward” and “rewind” as desired, skimming about 10 years of history per minute of real time.

When watching an actual event, it occurs in real time, just as if watching a digital video.

Perhaps the greatest power of all is the ability to bring someone back from the dead. It can restore lost loves, bring solace to the grieving, and topple kingdoms.

\n

Returning the dead to life requires a reasonably complete corpse no more than a year old. The caster then prays, meditates, chants, or otherwise concentrates on mending the body and pulling the spirit back to it for four hours.

Once done, the healer makes a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{casting roll} at -8.

Many cultures have legends of shamans or wizards who take on the shape of animals.

\n

This power does just that, allowing the caster to take the form of any animal (including fantastic creatures such as @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-bestiary.Dragon]{dragons} and hippogriffs if they exist in that setting, but not humanoids, undead, etc). What a character can change into depends on his @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Advancement]{Rank}:

\n

With a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{raise} on the roll, the character transforms into a  particularly large version of its type—increase its @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Strength} and @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Vigor} by one die type each.

\n

Weapons and other personal effects are assumed into the animal’s form and reappear when the power ends, but other objects are dropped.

\n

While transformed, the character retains his own @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Smarts}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Spirit}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Hindrances]{Hindrances}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Edges]{Edges}, and linked @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{skills} (though he may not be able to use some or all of them depending on the form -- GM’s call). He gains the animal’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Agility}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Strength}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Vigor}, and linked @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{skills} and cannot use devices that require humanoid form. He has no capacity for speech and cannot activate @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Powers]{powers}, though he may continue to maintain powers previously active.

\n

A @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Bestiary]{creature’s} natural abilities inherent to its form are conferred, but magical ones aren’t. A @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-bestiary.Dragon]{dragon} can fly and breathe fire in a traditional fantasy setting, for example, so a character who shape changes into one may do so as well. If dragons also cast spells in that world, however, shape change would not grant that ability because it’s not inherent to the physical form.

\n

Size: The caster does not inherit extra @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Wild Cards and Extras]{Wounds} when transforming into creatures of Large or Huge @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Size and Scale]{Scale}.

The ally acts on its creator’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Action Cards (Initiative)]{Action Card} and follows her commands to the best of its ability.

Telekinesis is the ability to move objects or creatures (including oneself) with arcane will. It has a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Strength} of d10, or d12 with a raise.

Unwilling opponents resist the caster’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Arcane Backgrounds]{arcane skill} with an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Spirit} roll when targeted and at the start of each of their @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{turns} afterward until they’re released.

\n

Telekinetic Tools: A caster can wield tools (including weapons) with telekinesis as an action. Use the caster’s relevant @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{skill} when attacking in this way (not his @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Arcane Backgrounds]{arcane skill}).

Teleport allows a character to disappear and instantly reappear up to 12″ (24 yards) distant, or double that with a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{raise}. Teleporting to an unseen location incurs a -2 penalty on the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Arcane Backgrounds]{arcane skill} roll.

\n

Opponents adjacent to a character who teleports away don’t get a free attack (see @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Withdrawing From Melee]{Withdrawing From Melee}).

\n

If casting teleport on a willing subject, the caster decides where they move to, not the target.

Zombie grants animation and basic intelligence to the remains of a once-living being. The summoned horror is obedient but literal-minded in its duties. It isn’t telepathic, and must be controlled by voice.

The being has the physical skills it had in life, but its @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Smarts}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Spirit}, and related @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{skills} are reset to d4.

Animals and other creatures can also be raised with this foul ability!

\n

Larger creatures cost 3 + @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Size and Scale]{Size} in Power Points. For example, an undead grizzly (Size 2) costs 5 Power Points to raise.

\n

Magical or supernatural @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Bestiary]{Special Abilities} aren’t conferred to the undead form, but those inherent to the creature are, such as @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-edges.Improved Frenzy]{Improved Frenzy}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Reach]{Reach}, a swarm’s attack, etc.

Additional zombie creatures cost half their base cost if raised at once, instead of the +1 listed for Additional Zombies (round up, minimum of 1).

\n

Stealth is the ability to hide and move quietly. A simple @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{success} on a Stealth roll means the character avoids detection if enemies aren’t particularly alert. If the character @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{fails} the roll, the enemy realizes something is amiss and begins actively searching for whatever roused them.

\n

Once foes are alerted and active, Stealth is opposed by @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} (a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{group roll} if there are many foes.

The GM should apply any circumstantial penalties to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} rolls for @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{darkness}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Cover and Obstacles]{cover}, noise, distractions, and any difference in the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Size and Scale]{Scale} (just like when attacking). Sneaking through dry leaves might subtract 2 from the Stealth roll, for example, while spotting someone in the dark uses the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{Illumination} penalty (−4). Don’t apply the same modifier to both rolls, however. If Stealth is at −2 for the leaves, don’t give Notice a +2 for them as well.

\n

Sneak Attack: Sneaking up close enough to make a melee attack always requires an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} Stealth roll versus the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice}, whether the guard is actively looking for trouble or not. If successful, the victim is @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Distracted and Vulnerable]{Vulnerable} to the attacker, but only until the attacker’s turn ends. With a raise, the attacker has @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.The Drop]{The Drop} instead.

\n

Movement: In combat, characters roll Stealth each turn as a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{free action} at the end of their move or any action the GM thinks might draw attention.

\n

Out of combat, the distance moved depends entirely on the situation.

\n

Intimidation is the art of frightening an opponent so that he backs down, reveals information, or flees.

\n

Intimidation is an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed roll} resisted by the opponent’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Spirit}. In combat, this is a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Test]{Test}. Out of combat, a successful roll means the foe backs down for the most part, reveals some information, or slinks away when the opportunity presents itself.

\n

A @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{raise} might mean he backs down for the remainder of the scene, spills all the beans, or runs away as fast as he can.

\n

In or out of combat, a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Critical Failure} means the target is immune to this character’s Intimidation attempts for the remainder of this encounter!

Notice is a hero’s general awareness and alertness. It’s used to sense sights, sounds, tastes, and smells, spot clues, detect ambushes, spot hidden weapons on a foe, or tell if a rival is lying, frightened, happy, etc.

\n

@Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Success} conveys basic information—the character hears movement in the forest, smells distant smoke, or senses someone isn’t being completely truthful.

\n

Persuasion is the ability to convince others to do what you want through reason, cajoling, deception, rewards, or other friendly means. Persuasion isn’t mind control. It can change someone’s attitude but not their goals. A bandit may let you keep a sentimental piece of jewelry with a good Persuasion roll but still takes all your other goods.

\n

When used to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Support]{Support} allies it’s an unopposed roll. If the target is resistant, it’s an @JournalEntry[JBxsGv2wAoAmoCDe]{opposed} roll vs. the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Spirit}. The GM should modify the roll as she sees fit based on roleplaying, any pertinent @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Edges]{Edges} or @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Hindrances]{Hindrances} that affect the conversation, and the circumstances.

\n

Reaction Level: How much a person is willing to cooperate depends largely on their attitude toward whoever’s talking to them. The Game Master can decide how nonplayer characters feel based on the setting, or roll on the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-tables.Reaction Table]{Reaction Table} if she has no preconceived notions.

\n

@Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Success} improves the target’s attitude one level and a raise improves it two. Further increases aren’t generally possible in the same encounter—it takes individuals a little time to adjust their biases.

\n

@Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Failure} means the target won’t change his mind this scene or until the situation changes in some important way. A @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Critical Failure} also reduces the target’s attitude two levels.

\n

Only one roll should generally be allowed per interaction unless new information is revealed, a substantial reward is offered, etc.

\n

Stealth is the ability to hide and move quietly. A simple @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{success} on a Stealth roll means the character avoids detection if enemies aren’t particularly alert. If the character @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{fails} the roll, the enemy realizes something is amiss and begins actively searching for whatever roused them.

\n

Once foes are alerted and active, Stealth is opposed by @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} (a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{group roll} if there are many foes.

\n

The GM should apply any circumstantial penalties to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} rolls for @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{darkness}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Cover and Obstacles]{cover}, noise, distractions, and any difference in the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Size and Scale]{Scale} (just like when attacking). Sneaking through dry leaves might subtract 2 from the Stealth roll, for example, while spotting someone in the dark uses the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{Illumination} penalty (−4). Don’t apply the same modifier to both rolls, however. If Stealth is at −2 for the leaves, don’t give Notice a +2 for them as well.

\n

Sneak Attack: Sneaking up close enough to make a melee attack always requires an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} Stealth roll versus the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice}, whether the guard is actively looking for trouble or not. If successful, the victim is @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Distracted and Vulnerable]{Vulnerable} to the attacker, but only until the attacker’s turn ends. With a raise, the attacker has @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.The Drop]{The Drop} instead.

\n

Movement: In combat, characters roll Stealth each turn as a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{free action} at the end of their move or any action the GM thinks might draw attention.

\n

Out of combat, the distance moved depends entirely on the situation. The GM might want a roll every minute if the group is sneaking around the perimeter of a defensive position, or every few miles if they’re trying to quietly walk the path through a dark forest without alerting the creatures that live there.

\n

Persuasion is the ability to convince others to do what you want through reason, cajoling, deception, rewards, or other friendly means. Persuasion isn’t mind control. It can change someone’s attitude but not their goals. A bandit may let you keep a sentimental piece of jewelry with a good Persuasion roll but still takes all your other goods.

\n

When used to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Support]{Support} allies it’s an unopposed roll. If the target is resistant, it’s an @JournalEntry[JBxsGv2wAoAmoCDe]{opposed} roll vs. the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Spirit}.

Shooting covers all attempts to hit a target with a ranged weapon such as a bow, pistol, or rocket launcher (thrown weapons use @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Athletics]{Athletics}). See @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Combat]{Chapter Three} for details on ranged combat.

\n

Stealth is the ability to hide and move quietly. A simple @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{success} on a Stealth roll means the character avoids detection if enemies aren’t particularly alert. If the character @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{fails} the roll, the enemy realizes something is amiss and begins actively searching for whatever roused them.

\n

Once foes are alerted and active, Stealth is opposed by @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} (a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{group roll} if there are many foes.

\n

The GM should apply any circumstantial penalties to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} rolls for @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{darkness}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Cover and Obstacles]{cover}, noise, distractions, and any difference in the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Size and Scale]{Scale} (just like when attacking). Sneaking through dry leaves might subtract 2 from the Stealth roll, for example, while spotting someone in the dark uses the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{Illumination} penalty (−4). Don’t apply the same modifier to both rolls, however. If Stealth is at −2 for the leaves, don’t give Notice a +2 for them as well.

\n

Sneak Attack: Sneaking up close enough to make a melee attack always requires an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} Stealth roll versus the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice}, whether the guard is actively looking for trouble or not. If successful, the victim is @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Distracted and Vulnerable]{Vulnerable} to the attacker, but only until the attacker’s turn ends. With a raise, the attacker has @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.The Drop]{The Drop} instead.

\n

Movement: In combat, characters roll Stealth each turn as a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{free action} at the end of their move or any action the GM thinks might draw attention.

\n

Out of combat, the distance moved depends entirely on the situation. The GM might want a roll every minute if the group is sneaking around the perimeter of a defensive position, or every few miles if they’re trying to quietly walk the path through a dark forest without alerting the creatures that live there.

\n

Stealth is the ability to hide and move quietly. A simple @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{success} on a Stealth roll means the character avoids detection if enemies aren’t particularly alert. If the character @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{fails} the roll, the enemy realizes something is amiss and begins actively searching for whatever roused them.

\n

Once foes are alerted and active, Stealth is opposed by @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} (a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{group roll} if there are many foes.

\n

The GM should apply any circumstantial penalties to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} rolls for @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{darkness}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Cover and Obstacles]{cover}, noise, distractions, and any difference in the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Size and Scale]{Scale} (just like when attacking). Sneaking through dry leaves might subtract 2 from the Stealth roll, for example, while spotting someone in the dark uses the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{Illumination} penalty (−4). Don’t apply the same modifier to both rolls, however. If Stealth is at −2 for the leaves, don’t give Notice a +2 for them as well.

\n

Sneak Attack: Sneaking up close enough to make a melee attack always requires an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} Stealth roll versus the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice}, whether the guard is actively looking for trouble or not. If successful, the victim is @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Distracted and Vulnerable]{Vulnerable} to the attacker, but only until the attacker’s turn ends. With a raise, the attacker has @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.The Drop]{The Drop} instead.

\n

Movement: In combat, characters roll Stealth each turn as a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{free action} at the end of their move or any action the GM thinks might draw attention.

\n

Out of combat, the distance moved depends entirely on the situation. The GM might want a roll every minute if the group is sneaking around the perimeter of a defensive position, or every few miles if they’re trying to quietly walk the path through a dark forest without alerting the creatures that live there.

Persuasion is the ability to convince others to do what you want through reason, cajoling, deception, rewards, or other friendly means. Persuasion isn’t mind control.

\n

Movement: In combat, characters roll Stealth each turn as a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{free action} at the end of their move or any action the GM thinks might draw attention.

\n

Out of combat, the distance moved depends entirely on the situation.

Stealth is the ability to hide and move quietly. A simple @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{success} on a Stealth roll means the character avoids detection if enemies aren’t particularly alert. If the character @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{fails} the roll, the enemy realizes something is amiss and begins actively searching for whatever roused them.

\n

Once foes are alerted and active, Stealth is opposed by @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} (a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{group roll} if there are many foes.

\n

The GM should apply any circumstantial penalties to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} rolls for @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{darkness}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Cover and Obstacles]{cover}, noise, distractions, and any difference in the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Size and Scale]{Scale} (just like when attacking). Sneaking through dry leaves might subtract 2 from the Stealth roll, for example, while spotting someone in the dark uses the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{Illumination} penalty (−4). Don’t apply the same modifier to both rolls, however. If Stealth is at −2 for the leaves, don’t give Notice a +2 for them as well.

\n

Sneak Attack: Sneaking up close enough to make a melee attack always requires an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} Stealth roll versus the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice}, whether the guard is actively looking for trouble or not. If successful, the victim is @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Distracted and Vulnerable]{Vulnerable} to the attacker, but only until the attacker’s turn ends. With a raise, the attacker has @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.The Drop]{The Drop} instead.

\n

Movement: In combat, characters roll Stealth each turn as a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{free action} at the end of their move or any action the GM thinks might draw attention.

\n

Out of combat, the distance moved depends entirely on the situation. The GM might want a roll every minute if the group is sneaking around the perimeter of a defensive position, or every few miles if they’re trying to quietly walk the path through a dark forest without alerting the creatures that live there.

Intimidation is the art of frightening an opponent so that he backs down, reveals information, or flees.

\n

Intimidation is an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed roll} resisted by the opponent’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Spirit}. In combat, this is a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Test]{Test}.

\n

Persuasion is the ability to convince others to do what you want through reason, cajoling, deception, rewards, or other friendly means. Persuasion isn’t mind control. It can change someone’s attitude but not their goals. A bandit may let you keep a sentimental piece of jewelry with a good Persuasion roll but still takes all your other goods.

\n

When used to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Support]{Support} allies it’s an unopposed roll. If the target is resistant, it’s an @JournalEntry[JBxsGv2wAoAmoCDe]{opposed} roll vs. the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Spirit}. The GM should modify the roll as she sees fit based on roleplaying, any pertinent @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Edges]{Edges} or @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Hindrances]{Hindrances} that affect the conversation, and the circumstances.

\n

Reaction Level: How much a person is willing to cooperate depends largely on their attitude toward whoever’s talking to them. The Game Master can decide how nonplayer characters feel based on the setting, or roll on the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-tables.Reaction Table]{Reaction Table} if she has no preconceived notions.

\n

@Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Success} improves the target’s attitude one level and a raise improves it two. Further increases aren’t generally possible in the same encounter—it takes individuals a little time to adjust their biases.

Shooting covers all attempts to hit a target with a ranged weapon such as a bow, pistol, or rocket launcher (thrown weapons use @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Athletics]{Athletics}). See @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Combat]{Chapter Three} for details on ranged combat.

\n

Stealth is the ability to hide and move quietly. A simple @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{success} on a Stealth roll means the character avoids detection if enemies aren’t particularly alert. If the character @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{fails} the roll, the enemy realizes something is amiss and begins actively searching for whatever roused them.

\n

Once foes are alerted and active, Stealth is opposed by @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} (a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{group roll} if there are many foes.

\n

The GM should apply any circumstantial penalties to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} rolls for @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{darkness}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Cover and Obstacles]{cover}, noise, distractions, and any difference in the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Size and Scale]{Scale} (just like when attacking). Sneaking through dry leaves might subtract 2 from the Stealth roll, for example, while spotting someone in the dark uses the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{Illumination} penalty (−4). Don’t apply the same modifier to both rolls, however. If Stealth is at −2 for the leaves, don’t give Notice a +2 for them as well.

\n

Sneak Attack: Sneaking up close enough to make a melee attack always requires an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} Stealth roll versus the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice}, whether the guard is actively looking for trouble or not. If successful, the victim is @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Distracted and Vulnerable]{Vulnerable} to the attacker, but only until the attacker’s turn ends. With a raise, the attacker has @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.The Drop]{The Drop} instead.

\n

Movement: In combat, characters roll Stealth each turn as a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{free action} at the end of their move or any action the GM thinks might draw attention.

\n

Out of combat, the distance moved depends entirely on the situation.

\n

Intimidation is the art of frightening an opponent so that he backs down, reveals information, or flees.

\n

Intimidation is an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed roll} resisted by the opponent’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Traits]{Spirit}. In combat, this is a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Test]{Test}. Out of combat, a successful roll means the foe backs down for the most part, reveals some information, or slinks away when the opportunity presents itself.

\n

A @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{raise} might mean he backs down for the remainder of the scene, spills all the beans, or runs away as fast as he can.

\n

In or out of combat, a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Critical Failure} means the target is immune to this character’s Intimidation attempts for the remainder of this encounter!

\n

Networking: Intimidation can also be used as a “macro” skill to simulate several hours of working the streets. See @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Networking]{Networking} to see how to crack some heads for favors or information.

\n

Notice is a hero’s general awareness and alertness. It’s used to sense sights, sounds, tastes, and smells, spot clues, detect ambushes, spot hidden weapons on a foe, or tell if a rival is lying, frightened, happy, etc.

\n

@Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{Success} conveys basic information—the character hears movement in the forest, smells distant smoke, or senses someone isn’t being completely truthful.

A @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{raise} grants more detail, such as the direction of a sound or odor or what topic a person is avoiding or lying about.

\n

Stealth is the ability to hide and move quietly. A simple @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{success} on a Stealth roll means the character avoids detection if enemies aren’t particularly alert. If the character @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{fails} the roll, the enemy realizes something is amiss and begins actively searching for whatever roused them.

\n

Once foes are alerted and active, Stealth is opposed by @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} (a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{group roll} if there are many foes.

\n

The GM should apply any circumstantial penalties to @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice} rolls for @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{darkness}, @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Cover and Obstacles]{cover}, noise, distractions, and any difference in the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Size and Scale]{Scale} (just like when attacking). Sneaking through dry leaves might subtract 2 from the Stealth roll, for example, while spotting someone in the dark uses the @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Illumination]{Illumination} penalty (−4). Don’t apply the same modifier to both rolls, however. If Stealth is at −2 for the leaves, don’t give Notice a +2 for them as well.

\n

Sneak Attack: Sneaking up close enough to make a melee attack always requires an @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{opposed} Stealth roll versus the target’s @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-skills.Notice]{Notice}, whether the guard is actively looking for trouble or not. If successful, the victim is @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Distracted and Vulnerable]{Vulnerable} to the attacker, but only until the attacker’s turn ends. With a raise, the attacker has @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.The Drop]{The Drop} instead.

\n

Movement: In combat, characters roll Stealth each turn as a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Actions]{free action} at the end of their move or any action the GM thinks might draw attention.

\n

Out of combat, the distance moved depends entirely on the situation. The GM might want a roll every minute if the group is sneaking around the perimeter of a defensive position, or every few miles if they’re trying to quietly walk the path through a dark forest without alerting the creatures that live there.

\n

Survival allows a character to find food, water, or shelter in hostile environments. It can also be used to navigate wilderness environments, figure out which plants are good to eat and which aren’t, and so on.

\n

A @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{successful} Survival roll provides enough food and water for one person for one day; or five people with a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{raise}.

\n

Tracking: Survival can also be used to detect and follow tracks. Each roll generally covers following the tracks for one mile, but the GM should adjust this as needed for specific circumstances.

\n

The Game Master should assign a @Compendium[swade-core-rules.swade-rules.Trait Rolls]{bonus or penalty} based on the target, environment, and time. Tracking a large group that recently passed through a snow-covered area might grant a bonus of +4, while following a single person over rocks and streams after more than a day incurs a −4 penalty.
