Unless the act of rolling would provide info the players/characters wouldn't have and unless the outcome of the roll would provide info the players/characters wouldn't have. So searching for secret doors is rolled by the referee behind the screen. Things like that.No touching or picking up dice to read them. Have had so many people pull this nonsense. If you touch the dice, the roll doesn't count. Keep re-rolling until you can keep your hands off the dice until after it's read. Dice must be plainly visible to the table, and rolled on the table, or the roll doesn't count.Players shouldn't assume the referee will ask for a roll. Players don't declare a roll and throw dice. The player describes or narrates the action they want to take, then the referee decides if it's an auto success, a roll, or an auto failure.Players shouldn't assume the outcome of a roll. Players don't decide what the DC of a roll is, so don't know if a low roll is a failure any more than they know a high roll is a success. Make the roll, add the modifiers, and report the numerical result. The referee will then tell you what the narrative result is.</blockquote>
