DICE You decide what your PC does, but if your actions are especially risky, the GM will ask you for a dice roll to determine if you are successful or not. Coriolis uses only normal six-sided dice, but you might need a fair number of them. We recommend at least 10. DARK FLOWERS This quickstart PDF contains a complete scenario, called Dark Flowers. It is designed to introduce new players to the rules of the game as well as the Third Horizon game universe.
