Rolls

New to rolling? Start with Just the basics and Rolling with Traits.

/roll

/roll pool:<pool> hunger:<hunger> difficulty:<difficulty>

Option	Description
`pool`	Traits (`Strength + Brawl`), numbers, or both. Add `+ Surge` to Blood Surge
`hunger`	`Use Current` (0 for mortals and ghouls), or 0–5
`difficulty`	0–10
`comment`	A description shown with the roll
`character`	The character to roll for
`player`	The character's owner (admins only)
`impairment_category`	Change the roll's Impairment category, or ignore Impairment
`dice`	`Hide` to hide your dice from other players

/vr

/vr syntax:<pool> [hunger] [difficulty]

The same as /roll, with the pool, Hunger, and Difficulty typed together in syntax. It's quicker, especially on mobile, and will feel familiar to Thirst users. /vr takes the same other options as /roll.

Example: Intelligence + Investigation, with current Hunger, at Difficulty 3:

/vr syntax:intelligence+investigation hunger 3

Trait shorthand

You only need to type enough of a Trait's name to identify it. Inconnu finds every Trait starting with what you typed; if only one matches, that's the Trait.

The standard character sheet has seven Traits starting with "S": Science, Stamina, Stealth, Streetwise, Strength, Subterfuge, and Survival. s matches all seven, and st still matches four, but sta matches only Stamina. So this rolls Intelligence + Investigation with current Hunger at Difficulty 3:

/vr syntax:inte+inv hun 3

Macros save the full Trait names, so later Traits can't make them ambiguous.

Custom Traits count, too. Add a Trait called "Staking", and you'll need stam for Stamina and stak for Staking.
