Ask the Oracle

When you seek to resolve questions, discover details in the world, determine how other characters respond, or trigger encounters or events, you may...

  • Draw a conclusion: Decide the answer based on the most interesting and obvious result.
  • Ask a yes/no question: Decide the odds of a ‘yes’, and roll on the table below to check the answer.
  • Pick two: Envision two options. Rate one as ‘likely’, and roll on the table below to see if it is true. If not, it is the other.
  • Spark an idea: Brainstorm or use a random prompt.
11 or greaterAlmost Certain
26 or greaterLikely
51 or greater50/50
76 or greaterUnlikely
91 or greaterSmall -Chance
On a match, an extreme result or twist has occurred.
Ironsworn - page 107

When you suffer the outcome of a move, choose one.

  • Make the most obvious negative outcome happen.
  • Envision two negative outcomes. Rate one as ‘likely’, and Ask the Oracle using the yes/no table. On a ‘yes’, make that outcome happen. Otherwise, make it the other.
  • Roll on the table below. If you have difficulty interpreting the result to fit the current situation, roll again.
1-2Roll again and apply that result but make it worse. If you roll this result yet again, think of something dreadful that changes the course of your quest (Ask the Oracle if unsure) and make it happen.
3-5A person or community you trusted loses faith in you, or acts against you.
6-9A person or community you care about is exposed to danger.
10-16You are separated from something or someone.
17-23Your action has an unintended effect.
24-32Something of value is lost or destroyed.
33-41The current situation worsens.
42-50A new danger or foe is revealed.
51-59It causes a delay or puts you at a disadvantage.
60-68It is harmful.
69-77It is stressful.
78-85A surprising development complicates your quest.
86-90It wastes resources.
91-94It forces you to act against your best intentions.
95-98A friend, companion, or ally is put in harm’s way (or you are, if alone)
99-100Roll twice more on this table. Both results occur. If they are the same result, make it worse.

On a match, an extreme result or twist has occurred.
Ironsworn - page 107
Pay the Price

When you suffer the outcome of a move, choose one.

  • Make the most obvious negative outcome happen.
  • Envision two negative outcomes. Rate one as ‘likely’, and Ask the Oracle using the yes/no table. On a ‘yes’, make that outcome happen. Otherwise, make it the other.
  • Roll on the table below. If you have difficulty interpreting the result to fit the current situation, roll again.
1-2Roll again and apply that result but make it worse. If you roll this result yet again, think of something dreadful that changes the course of your quest (Ask the Oracle if unsure) and make it happen.
3-5A person or community you trusted loses faith in you, or acts against you.
6-9A person or community you care about is exposed to danger.
10-16You are separated from something or someone.
17-23Your action has an unintended effect.
24-32Something of value is lost or destroyed.
33-41The current situation worsens.
42-50A new danger or foe is revealed.
51-59It causes a delay or puts you at a disadvantage.
60-68It is harmful.
69-77It is stressful.
78-85A surprising development complicates your quest.
86-90It wastes resources.
91-94It forces you to act against your best intentions.
95-98A friend, companion, or ally is put in harm’s way (or you are, if alone)
99-100Roll twice more on this table. Both results occur. If they are the same result, make it worse.
