[QUOTE="doghead, post: 1657340, member: 8243"] I had a quick look for these skills in the SRD but couldn't find them. But, yes, if they have some form of background or in game logic, they are taken at 1:1. I was thinking along these lines, but wanted to wait and see what you came up with. A +2 Perform (any type of music/song/oration) sounds reasonable. Perhaps also a +2 Diplomacy bonus. I think that the bard would need to play for more than a round - perhaps 10 minutes or so before trying. A diplomacy check would be my instinctive response. The RP could have a bearing on that. But as someone said, no one makes a thief RP their Search check, or a fighter their to hit roll. Feat Option: (from the Modern SRD, Charismatic Hero): Charm - the hero selects one gender and gets bonus to any Cha skill role with a member of that gender. It can only be used on people whos initial attitude is indifferent or better. We could use something along these lines with a +2 bonus. Humm, a good question this one. Thoughts anyone? Gambling seems to be an overlooked area. Resisted Int check would be my intuiative call, at least for card type games. For horse races, maybe Handle Animal would be more appropriate. But I think its definately an area in which skill has a big influence. I think that it is doable as a skill - let me know what you think about the crunchy bits. Perhaps a Profession skill? See you Monday. [/QUOTE]
