INTRODUCTION
How many times you rolled a skill check in a narrative scene and obtained advantages, threats, triumphs or despairs and did
not find any creative ideas about what these symbols could add to the scene.
Within these pages are ideas for difficulty, modifiers and symbols usages of all the Genesys skills.
Using this document

Subskills
This document includes subskills. Subskills are not a new rule to the system. It is simply a way to differenciate how skills can
be used, as well as possible modifiers and symbols usage. This does not affect the way the character invests in skills nor how they
make the checks.
For example, the Athletics skill includes, among others, Jumping and Climbing. Each of these has their own difficulty, modifiers
and symbols usage. Beyond these suggestions, it remains a single skill; Athletics.
Official and Community Content

The Genesys Core Rulebook does not gives much examples of difficulties and symbols usage. The possibilities suggested in
this document are therefore homebrew and are not considered official Genesys source. Still, some skill checks, such as reducing
damage when falling, have given details in the core book. These will be reproduced here, with the source quoted. Thanks to these
reference, you’ll easily distinguish official rules from community suggestions.

tables for social encounter won’t be copied here. But the GM can allow to use symbols as in a social encounter if it seems fitting
for the situation.
