Because it is important that everyone is on the same page in a game, it is important for my players that when i tell that Bob is a proff thief they know bob has some rogue abilities and may prime for a sneak attack.  If Jim has many books on wizardy and the black arts he better have some magic missles tucked away some where.    With everyone on the same page on the rules and no broad interpretation there are less means for confusion in the game.   So whose</blockquote>
