Fate

Fate is a measure of a character’s luck and fortune. Once per die roll, a player may pay one fate token reroll one die he has just rolled under the following circumstances:

1. Rolling a die for his character’s movement.
2. Rolling a die to determine his character’s attack roll.
3. Rolling a die due to the instructions on a card or board space.

If a player pays a fate token to reroll a die, he must accept the new result; he may not pay another fate token to reroll the same die again.

If a player rolls multiple dice (for example the Death space in the Inner Region), he may only pay one fate to reroll one of them.

Each character starts the game with a number of fate tokens equal to the fate value listed on his character card. Nothing untoward happens to a character who has used up all his fate, other than not being able to spend it until he gets more – as far as the universe is concerned, he is on his own.

A player may not pay fate tokens to reroll a die used to determine a creature’s attack roll.

Replenishing and Gaining Fate

Fate is usually replenished as the result of encounters from Adventure Cards and board spaces. A character may only replenish fate up to his fate value. If an encounter allows a character to gain fate, however, he may take fate tokens over and above his fate value.
