[QUOTE="Janx, post: 5747917, member: 8835"] True, and I think these conversations are getting mired with issues that are inherently dealt with by the skill system. The rules already do a good job of handling skill checks. If your PC has no smithing skills, then anything smithy the player tries to do will probably fail. If your PC has a low CHA, then any convincing the player tries to do, will probably fail if the GM applies a skill check. These are such non-issues and are effectively NOT what we're talking about. We're talking about the problem areas. Can my PC answer the riddle of the Sphinx, because the player has? Is it in character for my 7 CHA PC to spout charming lines of poetry to the ladies? I think the skill system resolves this one, but some past answers in these threads have implied that a 7 CHA PC wouldn't be played that way. [/QUOTE]
