Editing Age Of Dragons: Challenge Resolution (section)

===Apply Modifier===

A '''modifier''' is an action that increases or decreases a stat in the challenge, for example, increasing your Technique, or decreasing the challenge Difficulty.

A successful modifier changes the target number by an amount equal to the ''Power'' rating of the buff action.

Note that modifiers normally require some sort of special effect to achieve (such as magic or a specialised technique) and have an effect that lasts until the end of the ''Challenge'', though the GM may waive the requirement with smart tactics or shorten the duration if he feels it is too powerful. Also, a modifier tends to apply to only a thematically linked group of actions.

Examples of ''Modifier'' actions in different contexts might include:

* '''In a ''Physical'' challenge to break down a wall:''' Using magic to enhance physical strength, and so increase the ''Effect'' of future attempts at the challenge.
* '''In an ''Arcane'' ritual casting:''' Using your knowledge of esoteric ingredients to select the perfect ritual components, and so increase the the ''Technique'' of future attempts at the challenge.
