Then there are the Bad Dice
<li>Setback Die <span class="genesys dice setback" style="font-size:150%" aria-label="Boost Dice">j</span> : Represents Small things outside of your control that improve your chances of Success</li>
<li>Difficulty Die <span class="genesys dice  difficulty" style="font-size:150%" aria-label="Boost Dice">k</span> : Represents your Characters attributes. </li>
<li>Challenge Die <span class="genesys dice challenge" style="font-size:150%" aria-label="Boost Dice">l</span> : Represents your Characters Skills</li>
 
and the Negative Symbols
<li>Threat <span class="genesys" style="font-size:150%" aria-label="Boost Dice">h</span> : Can be spent in combat to trigger negative effects, and in narrative is something that hinders you</li>
<li>Failure <span class="genesys" style="font-size:150%" aria-label="Boost Dice">f</span> : Having any of these left shows you failed at  what you wanted to-do. </li>
<li>Despair <span class="genesys" style="font-size:150%" aria-label="Boost Dice">d</span> : Acts as a Failure and can be spent to trigger any threat effect and in narrative play can hinder in a major way</li>
 
The Symbols determine the results of whatever you are trying to achieve. With Success and Failure being obvious, and Advantage, Triumph, Threat, Despair being a bit less obvious.
Advantage and Threats Generally are things that stress you out or caused you to mess up without failing.
So someone lock picking a door might have some threat left over and could jam the lock, or damage their picks, or maybe it just takes longer.
Or they could have some Advantage left over and it takes very little time to open the lock, or maybe they notice something about the locks that gives them a bit of extra information.
 
Triumph and Despair are similar to advantage and threat but they have One major thing about them. They cannot be cancelled out, once you roll a <span class="genesys" style="font-size:150%" aria-label="Boost Dice">t</span> or <span class="genesys" style="font-size:150%" aria-label="Boost Dice">d</span> then you are stuck with whatever comes after. There is no removing them from play.
