=== At-Risk ===
At-Risk is an optional aspect of many [[Status Conditions]]. If a character or monster has been affected by a status condition, it is possible that being affected again may make that condition worse. As an example, if a monster has been tripped and now is [[Quelled]], ie, knocked down to a knee, it is possible that tripping that monster again may worsen their quelled state to [[prone]], meaning they are face-down on their hands and knees. Even worse, a [[prone]] condition might then be worsened even more to the [[Splayed]] condition, sprawled flat on your face or back with arms and legs splayed out spread-eagle style.

The GM adjudicates most At-Risk situations on a case-by-case basis, so be nice to the person behind the screen.
