[QUOTE="Shallown, post: 1451417, member: 1368"] Also, If I remember correctly, your player's character is in a small village town. Seems she has skills that others in the town may not so others in the village would see her as the Local "expert" especially for any skills not usable without training. Another idea is that some skills are used more for roleplaying than needing to roll. I have a dwarven fighter who has carpentry and armor/weapon smith skills. Becuase he thinks in his characters off time that's what he does. He only bought Carpentry so he could fix up his own barn/smithy with the people he had hired to do so.
