[QUOTE="ClaytonCross, post: 7590366, member: 6880599"] And that is why I included that part of my statement. I allow one insight check for a conversation to get a feel of do you believe what they are saying or can you read them at all. I do get that changes in a real conversation but at the same I don't want to promote stopping conversation for continual roles. I will let them all role a check individually and I will whisper/text that general state of trust but I am not giving them "this is there lie" even if a player expects a specific part as a lie, I let them know texting on the phone or roll20 whisper or pull the player aside. They then have to convince the rest of the party and if they only have their word vs the NPC its up to the 3rd party player to support their ally and what that means even if they are working on nothing but a players intuition. Its not like people are human lie detectors. If there was feat or something that's one thing but their is not that I am aware of. Even then that would reinforce it as a special skill you don't normally have. [/QUOTE]
