[Phase 2] Bad Apple [Event]

[For Naive, what is meant by -1D to ‘Foul Play Involved’, mechanically? Is that -1D to all rolls in this task, or only -1D if assuming foul play, which would need to be declared in Orokos?]

Roland interprets correctly, but not on the luck roll since that's just luck.

As per Q&A I am treating the Diagnose roll as optional. That has Crit Fail written all over it when I look at it.

Edit: Not that it matters much when I rolled a load of rubbish. Man, fuck that -1D forever.

RP added in subsequent post.

- Fails every roll apart from potentially the last one.

It would have taken a miracle for a man of Roland's focused talents to aid his friend and the seven did not grant him one. Still, as at Highgarden he proved adept at ferreting out gossip, but would he here the right tale?

Trystane may not be in any way an expert, but these two findings, when put together, make for a decisive cause in his mind. Also a lead on a possible perpetrator, though he reckons it likely that the stable lad was carrying out someone else’s orders. And that person's identity and motive eluded him. Still, he had to tell Ser Roland what he had learned. Whatever he could do to help.

Parmen was not too proud to admit that he was laughing when Roland showed up on a horse that looked ready to throw him at any moment. It happened sometimes, a wasp would sting a horse in a sensitive area and the horse would go nuts for a few moments until it calmed down. 

Except the horse never calmed down. Parmen watched with growing unease and then alarm as the beast seemed to grow more and more agitated, almost seeming like he viewed everyone and everything around him like an enemy to be trampled.  Roland was able to manage well-enough, but Parmen was convinced that there was more at play here.

Redtusk is not surprised such things could be involved, trained warhorses does not react like that. In the absence of any leads to pursue, all he can do is to have guards posted to ensure no further such mischief may occur.
