Player's Principles

Begin and end with the fiction
Connect with the other PCs
Show us what's important to you
Have goals and pursue them
Be bold, take risks
Embrace difficulty, setback, and failure
Participate in worldbuilding
Build on what others have said
Give others a chance to shine
Participate in the conversation

When in doubt…

Visualize the situation
Ask the GM for clarification
What do you want? What's your goal?
Consider your strengths and weaknesses
Look to others for ideas
Go with the obvious choice, the interesting choice, the meaningful choice... not always the "right" choice (remember, you get XP on a miss!)

Triggering moves

If you want to do it, then do it in the fiction. Tell us how you do it, what it looks like. Be specific.

But remember: if you do it in the fiction, then you have to do it. "I rush past the hagr to grab the glowing sword" and the GM says that's Defy Danger with DEX. It's okay to say, "Oh, really? I guess I don't do that." But if you want to rush past the hagr, make with the dice.

Hold and spend

When a move says, "hold X Currency (until/while/so long as __)," then note the Currency you hold and spend it as described by the move. Spending held Currency usually means you just do it, no roll required.

Sometimes, though, spending held Currency will allow you to trigger a move (and thus roll) when otherwise you just couldn't have done it.
