Use of a skill requires rolling a certain number of such successes.
Crazy dice is a mathematical exercise in elementary combinatorics, involving a re-labeling of the faces of a pair of six-sided dice to reproduce the same frequency of sums as the standard labeling. The Sicherman dice are crazy dice that are re-labeled with only positive integers .
1d6×5 or 5×d6 means "roll one 6-sided die, and multiply the result by 5." 3d6×10+3 means "roll three 6-sided dice, add them together, multiply the result by 10, and then add 3." Multiplication can also mean repeating throws of similar setup (usually represented by the letter "x", rather than the multiplication symbol):
The same Good attribute would be considered Poor if you were to roll three minus sides and one blank.
