(View - Edit Notes )Notes

  • An attempt by the character to go to sleep succeeds if a random number roll from -8 to 8 is greater than 0. Insomnia subtracts 12 from this roll. This has approximately the same effect as the character being "Tired" instead of "Dead Tired" or "Dead Tired" instead of exhausted.
  • For both Insomniac and non-Insomniac characters, Stimulant/Depressant level affects the above roll. Double the level of Stimulants in a character's system is subtracted from the roll. If the character is instead under the effect of Depressants, then for non-Insomniac characters, double the level of depressants is added to the roll. For Insomniac characters, the (non-double) level of depressants is added to the roll. This means that a Depressants level of 12 is required to counteract the effect of Insomniac in passing the above roll.
