This looks very interesting. Can I please get an example of an action roll? I'm familiar with the standard dice roll on your first column (three conditional nos and three conditional yesses). For instance, what if I try to swing from one vine to another and roll "Yes, and," "if," and "despite?" Thanks!

(character) makes a mad dash through the dense foliage, of the (setting) jungle, pursued by a pack of ravenous anthropoidal beasts. Your character comes to the edge of the tree on which they were running, and take a leap of faith, attempting to grab a vine and swing away. Can they successfully grab a vine? Yes, the dense foliage of the jungle provides plenty of vines to grab into, and if you can outrun the creatures on your trail, you can make it to the next tree and potentially find a safe place to hide. Despite this, they are right on your tail, and it will take some effort to escape. 

You swing to the next vine. Can you get some distance on them? Yes, but you haven't lost them yet. You'll either have to find some way to fight them while you swing, or try to lose them in the trees. Until you figure it out, they will keep hunting you down. 

And so on 


Very interesting. A really great way to inspire ideas for what might happen next.

Alright. I like that. So it's not necessarily to read left to right in the results column. Looks good.
