Pay attention! You are a scatterbrain and your mind is easily taken off tasks at hand. Whenever a task is attempted for longer than a round, a Focus check is necessary to keep working unhindered. The Difficulty should be relative to the distraction. If a pen falls off a table, the Difficulty for the check is relatively low. If a bird flies around outside a window, the Difficulty is moderately high. If the check is Botched, the task is stopped altogether and ruined, but if the check is simply failed, the Difficulty for the task increases by one for each successive failed check. A successful check does not ease the accumulation of previous distractions, however, a Critical Success does.
