- Thread starter Goonalan
- Start date
Well, the best modifier I can likely offer here is +0.
So, Aid Another it is.
I will wait for someone to start, though, in order to chime in.
Bye
Thanee
Sorry but isn't that the exact opposite of what I have just said...
You can use any skill, any skill providing you can make it work for you-
Kyalia, tumbles through the inn, a series of backflips and acrobatic moves that leave Eoffram's eyes wide, "I fought for Fallcrest because it is my home...", the statement simple but the acrobatic approach clearly signifying her abilities.
Roll Acrobatics.
Same again some physical exercise followed by an Athletics check.
Or else creep up on the fellow with a Stealth check, or find something small to hide, or make disappear with a Stealth check.
Or else talk knowledgably about Goblins and their ilk- the danger, the threat- how to kill them, their leadership and make a Nature check (Monster Knowledge).
The one line you deliver- "I fought because..." doesn't have to be the Skill Check, anything can work.
The other way is to stop thinking of it as a game you must win, and try any skill check that you think would serve, you are an alluring Elf, he's a Half-Elf- pour on the charm with a bit of role-play and then make a Bluff, Diplomacy or other check.
And if you go badly wrong- shout Elven Accuracy and I'll let you re-roll.
Or else state "I come to kill Goblins" and Twin Strike someone's hat off...
Skill Challenges are really not a bunch of people trying to figure out the three skills that work, at least not in this game- anything, but anything goes... and here's the thing- the risk is nothing.
You fail a check and... nobody gets hurt.
Sorry if that was a little terse to begin with but I thought the explanation was pretty clear in the sblock- this is not about three skills, this is about you impressing him, and answering the question, the important bit is the impressing him.
Cheers PDR

Haha! The image of this poor, pompous councillor being lectured, gabbled at, snuck up on, caught in a mini tornado and shot at is making me giggle!

I genuinely think the dice roller hates me.
