-Using this rule, the process PCs use to roll for tasks is changed. Instead of a d20, players roll 2d6---one is assigned

-The fate die's effects are independent of the task die\'s---they occur whether the PC succeeds or not.

-Effects on Gameplay
-
-Using this rule, some elements of gameplay will feel different:
-
--   **Succeeding Tasks:** PCs will suceed at tasks at about the same rate, but most difficulty 1 tasks become
-    [routine](#routine-actions)---unless the PC is hindered, for example, due to an [inability](#key-concepts) or some
-    other circumstance.
-
--   **Special Rolls:** [Special rolls](#rules-special-rolls) other than major effects are mostly eliminated, but major
-    effects occur more frequently.
-
--   **GM Intrusions:** The [GM intrusion](#gm-intrusion) rate starts higher, and effects that increase it---for example,
-    [Horror Mode](#horror-rules-horror-mode)---have considerably more dramatic effects.
-
--   **Abilities and Effects:** The GM might need to make a few other alterations for certain effects that still assume
-    task resolution is handled by rolling a d20, for example, those granted by the [Increased
-    Effects](#ability-increased-effects){.og-ability} ability (for example, allowing a [minor
-    effect](#rules-special-rolls) on a roll of 5 on the fate die).
-
--   **Other Sizes of Fate Die:** Alternatively, the GM can assign the fate die to a different die instead, for example,
-    the fate die could be set to a d10, triggering a GM intrusion on a 1, a minor effect on a 9, and a major effect on
-    a 10. The fate die could even be a d20, and trigger [special rolls](#rules-special-rolls) normally.
