  • Notice: The Referee may ask for a Sense Save to spot an important detail—or register the significance of something you otherwise automatically perceive. Notice applies during many Encounters. This happens when foes are setting up an Ambush, and you must Save to start the Exchange normally. A success may even abort the ambush entirely—some foes won’t attack if their approach is noticed. If you potentially reveal a character’s Trait during a conversation a Good Notice Save confirms your suspicion. On a Bad roll you know you missed something, but don’t know why the Referee asked you to Save unless it becomes obvious later. You do still have a feeling, so it’s legitimate to actively probe for what you may have missed, assuming you have time to.
