[QUOTE="Garthanos, post: 7297169, member: 82504"] [b]Animal Tongues and Skillful Guide (Insert Skill Here)[/b] I am adding animal tongues as a martial practice (The Dwarves in the Hobbit could do it and the D&D Monk also could do it - The Ranger can do it). AND the clincher there is a ritual to do it. So Animal tongues makes the list. While examining what might be the effect of animal tongues that might make a little more broad sense than interrogation ie seeing the effect of Hunters Beast empathy. I realized/remembered that the hunters knacks seem to actually be things which should be encompassed as martial practices. I am thinking Mountaineering Guide and Ambush Expertise can be a practice but wondering also if we can generalize their effect as Skillful Guide. Skillful Guide time 1 minute (spending a healing surge to both reduce time cost and time to perform activity) duration 1 encounter (or up to 10 minutes) Taking a bit longer at a protracted skill use you are trained in to precisely and adroitly describe/demonstrate what you are doing and guide any allies who wish to do the same , your guidance will help and perhaps speed the way for even those not less practiced than yourself (some allies with high skill may still accuse you of insulting their intelligence) such as climbing or navigating tough terrain (see parkour). This allows you to aid others ( full party ) instead of just a single ally attempting the same activity for an encounter. Additionally A healing surge may be spent (or additional skill check can be performed by each party member a success ) to halves the time to finish the activity. Question running through my mind is what other protracted skill use might be used beyond just Climbing (and other skilled movement) ? How about engaging in a search in that library (History)? --> I know not very martial eh ;) [/QUOTE]
