Ironsworn—Ask the Oracle (Expanded)

When you want more than 'yes' or 'no'…

The chart is based on Ask the Oracle from Ironsworn by Shawn Tomkin but with expanded answers seen in other solo play tools. The idea is that rolls closer to the minimum required for a yes would be less emphatic. Rolls further from the cutoff would be more emphatic.

For example, if you rate something as 'Likely', which is 26 or greater, then rolling 26 would be 'Yes, but…"; rolling a 65 would simply be 'Yes.'; and rolling a 90 would be 'Yes, and…'.

The default odds is 50/50 but can be changed using the drop down menu.
