I think the interaction of herbalism kit and poisoners kit is messy. I'm thinking that a herbalism kit should let you make potions and salves and poisons and cooking herbs and all sorts of things.Then again, I like the fact that poisoners kit means "you are a poisoner - it says so, right there on your character sheet!".I disagree with this one. Animal Handling skill is for the characters who are expert riders or teamsters. I don't see an overlap between that and knowing how to survive in the wilds. In my game, Survival helps you trap and kill and animal, to eat it, but not to any care and feeding and (especially) domestication.Performance is more than just playing an instrument. It is reading the audience, tailoring your performance to what they want to hear, and using your performance to sway a crowd. For example, a politician giving a speech to a crowd of potential voters uses Performance.</blockquote>
