Success means that the plus one bonus is acquired. Failure means that the skill, familiarity, or item rating goes down by one (which can take the rating negative).

Note that the name of the game is based on a popular Roguelike game called NetHack, the “Live” meaning to imply that although like these games, this is played moderated by a living, breathing Game Master (hereafter GM). text/html 2012-01-28T17:11:08+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://wiki.wishray.com/doku.php?id=livehack:playtest_area&rev=1327799468&do=diff Here be notes for playtests.

Humans Common Men The “default” race, if there is one, humans seem to just be prolific enough to run roughshod over many areas of many dungeons. And, of course, those that have devolved into barbarism are the largest contributors to the race of Grimlocks. Still, though they have no particular strengths, neither do humans have any particular weaknesses, which may be part of why they do as well as they do.… text/html 2013-01-06T13:01:47+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://wiki.wishray.com/doku.php?id=livehack:resolution&rev=1357506107&do=diff Resolution is much like usual D20, where you roll a d20, add bonuses, subtract penalties, hoping to meet or exceed a target number.
