The players describe the actions of their characters, while the Game Master narrates the reactions of the world and the consequences of the characters' actions.
The Master's main task is to create the story and the challenges, such as combats and puzzles, adapting the plot according to the players' decisions and dice rolls.

Mechanics of Storm 20: Basic Book
- Storytelling - In Tormenta 20, Storytelling is the technique of driving the game's plot, performed mainly by the Master. The Master creates scenarios, events and challenges, describing the world and its nuances, while the players immerse their characters in the narratives, reacting and making decisions that affect the course of the plot.
- Paper and pen - Essential for recording game information, such as character sheets, inventories, notes on the adventure, maps and miscellaneous notes. Players and the Master use pen and paper to structure the session, keep track of the campaign's progress and ensure that important details are not forgotten.
- Data Scrolling - This mechanic is crucial in determining the success or failure of the characters' actions. In Tormenta 20, different-sided dice (commonly d20, but also d4, d6, d8, d10, d12) are used for testing attributes, skills, attacks and defenses, adding elements of luck and strategy to players' decisions.
- RPG - The Role-Playing Game in Tormenta 20 involves playing fictional characters in a fantasy world. Players create and develop their characters throughout adventures, collaborating and interacting with each other and the Master to face challenges, complete quests and evolve their roles in the story.
