That's not what you want to use, but there is a similar list with opposite intent. It works wonders... It doesn't protect you against quotes, though. Ahem.I wonder how much the system also supports DM influence on the allowed skills. But even if there is no explicit mentioning of it, it can definitely be used to create a more structured scene, if that's what the group/DM prefers.Instead of letting the players decide which skill they want to use, the DM creates a sequence of obstacles (possible with alternate routes) and assigns the required skill checks himself. The player has a lot less control about what he can do, but the DM gains the opportunity to link mechanical and world element closer (and might have an easier time adjudicating the exact consequences of failures or success.)So, you can use the same guidelines both for a "player-narrated" scenario and a "DM-narrated" scenario - or for a mix of both.</blockquote>
