Attempt


Syntax: attempt (task) with discipline/stat and discipline/stat and discipline/stat

The attempt command is used in story runner scenes to inform the SR privately about what
you wish to accomplish, and what disciplines/stats you're using to do so as well as what
the levels of those stats and disciplines are. It can be provides with up to three stats
or disciplines, each separated by the word 'and' the task itself is separated from the
stats and disciplines by the word 'with'

For example.
attempt to break down the door with strength and telekinesis
May show the SR something like this: Bob attempts to break down the door with Strength(3)
and telekinesis(20)

The SR may then either emit the result of the action, or inform you of it and let you
emote it.

If you aren't in a room with an SR or don't include 'with' then attempt instead attempts a potential emote.
Syntax: attempt (person) (emote)
The target will get the option to respond with 'yes' or 'no' if they choose yes then the emote goes through with a tag at the end noting that they approved it. If no then it doesn't happen. If a potential emote is denied the person who made the attempt is free to either RP a failed attempt or to RP that they character did something else instead.
