I originally did it to try and get them thinking flexibly and to improve survival at low levels but it proved clunky and slowed down combat. On reflection it wasn't a good rule.The second was an attempt to bring more of a sense of divine presence to the game. A PC could pray to their god for inspiration anytime they failed a roll and it would turn into a success, or turn a success into a critical. In return though they handed me a fate point that I could use for an NPC or monster at some point. I couldn't use these for attacks but I could use them to pass a save, recharge a power or make a dramatic escape. Not one of the players actually had their PC pray - one even allowed their character to die rather than "hand the DM something that can be used against us." I actually like this one but couldn't get the players to buy in.</blockquote>
