An aspiration is a quick prayer on the order of: “Give me strength!” or “Don’t let me goof up!” The player rolls a d20 out of the player’s own sight for the DM, who records it. At any time during the next game hour, the player can ask to have a bad die roll replaced by the hidden roll. The d20 can replace an attack roll, a saving throw, or a percentile dice roll (multiplying the secret roll by 5). Upon the player’s request, the secret roll is revealed, and becomes the official dice roll. There is no guarantee that the secret roll will be better, but it is a second chance.
