A roll low mechanic has the advantage of creating a limited or closed range, which means you can usually have a more "realistic" result...

In the normal rules, you gain a scar when choosing to survive a death and rolling a equal or below your level with the Hope die. In...

As I couldn't get my players onboard for Forbidden campaign so I used Dragonbane to run a mash up campaign using the Raven Valley map...
