[QUOTE="wasteomana, post: 6769079, member: 6798675"] Tussin, you either missed the point or ignored it completely. What you are doing is something you should run by your DM first. The only way to keep yourself from getting really perturbed by your DM or vice versa is to first make sure this is something your DM will go for and let you really shine with. Because if you play in a game where lying and trickery on commonplace, that might not fit with it or be incredibly strong. If you play in a game where the DM isn't going to let you auto-lie-detector everything, that's not going to fit either. Also the Marks are Eberron specific not Dark Sun or Forgotten Realms. Step 1 needs to be talk with DM. Step 2 needs to be Check your passive Insight with only scholar and Traveler's Insight vs Hard DC Insight (see how many levels above you that will be an auto-pass) Step 3 needs to be adjusting to fit. None of these will involve Linguist as it is a waste of resources. Traveler's Insight might be a waste of resources if you don't see a use for it in the campaign (and your DM isn't going to just shut you down). Scholar itself isn't a great theme, but it isn't terrible. Just keep in mind when you are building what you are getting out of it. [/QUOTE]
