| All you have to know when you roll is the number of successes you need; if you get at least the minimum quantity, you succeed. The standard number of successes necessary for any task is always one (unless the Storyteller says otherwise). Extra successes beyond the minimum can sometimes be used for additional effect (at the very least, extra successes mean your character accomplishes the action in a superior and notable fashion). | All you have to know when you roll is the number of successes you need; if you get at least the minimum quantity, you succeed.

| Normally if none of your dice roll a 7 or higher, your character simply fails. If any dice on such a failed roll come up 1s, you've botched. A botch is an unfortunate result; not only does your character fail the action, but she does so rather significantly. However, as long as you roll at least one success, any 1s are ignored. | Normally if none of your dice roll a 7 or higher, your character simply fails.
