these are things that are not included in my version because they're homebrew, because they are a lot of writing/creativity that I don't feel comfortable stealing/distributing, or so on this includes ideas that I like, but either plan to write my own way in the future, or again I just don't feel comfortable copying verbatim, especially if, for instance, I have my own process and don't need to advocate for a different one

|
|
-Because [the player always rolls](#rules-the-player-always-rolls), it can be unclear how the GM should proceed if the
|
|
-PCs are unaware of important aspects of their situation. The GM can prompt a PC for a roll without telling them anything
|
|
-about what it's for, but this might arouse unwanted suspicion. Instead, the GM can compare the PC\'s tier to the
|
|
-[difficulty](#rules-task-difficulty) of the task, and add 1 for each of the PC's applicable
|
|
-[skills](#modifying-the-difficulty-skills) and [assets](#modifying-the-difficulty-assets). Any ties are decided in the
|
|
-PC's favor.
|
|
-
|
|
-For example, a tier 3 PC is [specialized](#key-concepts) in tracking and has a[Beast
|
|
-Companion](#ability-beast-companion){.og-ability}---a faithful bloodhound, whose [modification](#followers) that
|
|
-provides an asset to tracking tasks. This make's the PC\'s passive total 3 (tier) plus 2 (skills) plus 1 (asset) equals
|
|
-6. So, the PC would detect the presence of a dangerous level 6 creature before it pounced upon a fellow party
|
|
-member---as almost a passive [routine action](#routine-actions).
|
|
-
|
|
-Passive difficulty provides the GM with a way to think about providing directly to PCs' unique senses, knowledges,
|
|
-abilities, skills, and personal pasts---honoring of all the choices the player made whilst creating their character, and
|
|
-since the start of the game. The GM should strive to be generous with information---after all, information and answers
|
|
-are two very different things, and a well-informed party can make more compelling choices about what they do next.
|
|
-Events like ambushes, or a PC discovering they have been pickpocketed can easily be introduced via [GM
|
|
-intrusion](#gm-intrusion), so it's best to describe the situation in a way that invites further action from the PCs
|
|
-rather than withhold critical information.
