On a 7-9, the character generally succeeds with a complication. On a 6-, you make an MC move. Alternatively, we sometimes use rock, paper, scissors to resolve rolls when traveling or waiting in line. If the player wins, it is a full success while a tie is a partial success. If the player loses, you make an MC move. If everyone agrees the character would excel at the task at hand, then the player can request one rematch on a partial success or miss. The MC Use the MC section from a PbtA game that fits your expected setting. Remove any MC Move that inflicts harm on the players. Rather than injuring the kids' characters directly, I threaten their allies, equipment, and goals. Combat/Social Encounters Either:
