[QUOTE="der_kluge, post: 1091448, member: 945"] I agree, I would lump taste and smell into one skill. I could see either coming into effect occasionally, smell more often, though. I've always thought that gather information would include things like research, but maybe not. I could see it being different enough, especially if you've got need for that kind of thing. The memory thing is also kind of game-specific. In most games I play in, if the player doesn't write it down, the PC doesn't remember it. This skill would be good if the DM allowed the player to roll to see if their character remembered something the player didn't! The only skills I've added to my game are: Knowledge (monster:dragons/humanoids/aberrations, etc.) So, you can have general knowledge about a specific category of monster. The other one is "Artist". This skill essentially means that you are skilled with a paintbrush, or with sculpture, or some other artistic medium. You could lump it into Perform(), but creating art is not a performance, and therefore not Charisma based. I made Artist dex-based. [/QUOTE]
