- | ====== Alertness ====== | ||
- | Alertness measures a character's passive awareness. If a character is actively looking for something then user [[Investigation]] instead. | ||

- | ===== Trappings ===== | ||
- | |||
- | |||
- | ==== Avoiding Surprise ==== | ||
- | Whenever a character is [[fate:stealth#ambush|ambushed]] they may make an Alertness roll to avoid surprise. A failure gives the character a Mediocre(+0) defense for the surprise round. | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Combat Initiative ==== | ||
- | Alertness determines initiative in any physical conflict. | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Confusing Situations ==== | ||
- | When a character is in a confusing or disorientated environment (smoke, lots of activity, etc) a character's skill may be restricted by Alertness. | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Passive Awareness ==== | ||
- | Alertness rolls are rare - [[Investigation]] is typically used when looking for something. Instead Alertness rolls represent your passive or sixth sense and is used when you might see something that you are not looking for - like a pit trap. | ||
