 [H=1]Heal (WIS)[/H]Check: The DC and effect depend on the task you attempt.&nbsp;&nbsp;[TABLE=&quot;class: outer_border, width: 296&quot;] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 161&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Task&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Heal &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 106&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; DC&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 161&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; First aid&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 106&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 15&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 161&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Long-term&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; care &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 106&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 15&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 161&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Treat&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; wound from caltrop, spike&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; growth, or&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; spike stones &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 106&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 15&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 161&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Treat poison&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 106&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Poison’s&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; save DC&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 161&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Treat&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; disease &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 106&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Disease’s&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; save DC&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] &nbsp;First Aid: You usually use first aid to save a dying character. If a character has negative hit points and is losing hit points (at the rate of 1 per round, 1 per hour, or 1 per day), you can make him or her stable. A stable character regains no hit points but stops losing them.&nbsp;Long-Term Care: Providing long-term care means treating a wounded person for a day or more. If your Heal check is successful, the patient recovers hit points or ability score points (lost to ability damage) at twice the normal rate: 2 hit points per level for a full 8 hours of rest in a day, or 4 hit points per level for each full day of complete rest; 2 ability score points for a full 8 hours of rest in a day, or 4 ability score points for each full day of complete rest.&nbsp;You can tend as many as six patients at a time. You need a few items and supplies (bandages, salves, and so on) that are easy to come by in settled lands. Giving long-term care counts as light activity for the healer. You cannot give long-term care to yourself.&nbsp;Treat Wound from Caltrop, Spike Growth, or Spike Stones: A creature wounded by stepping on a caltrop moves at one-half normal speed. A successful Heal check removes this movement penalty.&nbsp;A creature wounded by a spike growth or spike stones spell must succeed on a Reflex save or take injuries that reduce his speed by one-third. Another character can remove this penalty by taking 10 minutes to dress the victim’s injuries and succeeding on a Heal check against the spell’s save DC.&nbsp;Treat Poison: To treat poison means to tend a single character who has been poisoned and who is going to take more damage from the poison (or suffer some other effect). Every time the poisoned character makes a saving throw against the poison, you make a Heal check. The poisoned character uses your check result or his or her saving throw, whichever is higher.&nbsp;Treat Disease: To treat a disease means to tend a single diseased character. Every time he or she makes a saving throw against disease effects, you make a Heal check. The diseased character uses your check result or his or her saving throw, whichever is higher.&nbsp;Action: Providing first aid, treating a wound, or treating poison is a standard action. Treating a disease or tending a creature wounded by a spike growth or spike stones spell takes 10 minutes of work. Providing long-term care requires 8 hours of light activity.&nbsp;Try Again: Varies. Generally speaking, you can’t try a Heal check again without proof of the original check’s failure. You can always retry a check to provide first aid, assuming the target of the previous attempt is still alive.&nbsp;Special: A character with the Self-Sufficient feat gets a +2 bonus on Heal checks.&nbsp;A healer’s kit gives you a +2 circumstance bonus on Heal checks.&nbsp;[h=1]Hide (DEX; ARMOR CHECK PENALTY)[/h]Check: Your Hide check is opposed by the Spot check of anyone who might see you. You can move up to one-half your normal speed and hide at no penalty. When moving at a speed greater than one-half but less than your normal speed, you take a –5 penalty. It’s practically impossible (–20 penalty) to hide while attacking, running or charging.&nbsp;A creature larger or smaller than Medium takes a size bonus or penalty on Hide checks depending on its size category: Fine +16, Diminutive +12, Tiny +8, Small +4, Large –4, Huge –8, Gargantuan –12, Colossal –16.&nbsp;You need cover or concealment in order to attempt a Hide check. Total cover or total concealment usually (but not always; see Special, below) obviates the need for a Hide check, since nothing can see you anyway.&nbsp;If people are observing you, even casually, you can’t hide. You can run around a corner or behind cover so that you’re out of sight and then hide, but the others then know at least where you went.&nbsp;If your observers are momentarily distracted (such as by a Bluff check; see below), though, you can attempt to hide. While the others turn their attention from you, you can attempt a Hide check if you can get to a hiding place of some kind. (As a general guideline, the hiding place has to be within 1 foot per rank you have in Hide.) This check, however, is made at a –10 penalty because you have to move fast.&nbsp;Sniping: If you’ve already successfully hidden at least 10 feet from your target, you can make one ranged attack, then immediately hide again. You take a –20 penalty on your Hide check to conceal yourself after the shot.&nbsp;Creating a Diversion to Hide: You can use Bluff to help you hide. A successful Bluff check can give you the momentary diversion you need to attempt a Hide check while people are aware of you.&nbsp;Action: Usually none. Normally, you make a Hide check as part of movement, so it doesn’t take a separate action. However, hiding immediately after a ranged attack (see Sniping, above) is a move action.&nbsp;Special: If you are invisible, you gain a +40 bonus on Hide checks if you are immobile, or a +20 bonus on Hide checks if you’re moving.&nbsp;If you have the Stealthy feat, you get a +2 bonus on Hide checks.&nbsp;A 13th-level ranger can attempt a Hide check in any sort of natural terrain, even if it doesn’t grant cover or concealment. A 17thlevel ranger can do this even while being observed.&nbsp;[H=1]Intimidate (CHA)[/H]Check: You can change another’s behavior with a successful check. Your Intimidate check is opposed by the target’s modified level check (1d20 + character level or Hit Dice + target’s Wisdom bonus [if any] + target’s modifiers on saves against fear). If you beat your target’s check result, you may treat the target as friendly, but only for the purpose of actions taken while it remains intimidated. (That is, the target retains its normal attitude, but will chat, advise, offer limited help, or advocate on your behalf while intimidated. See the Diplomacy skill, above, for additional details.) The effect lasts as long as the target remains in your presence, and for 1d6×10 minutes afterward. After this time, the target’s default attitude toward you shifts to unfriendly (or, if normally unfriendly, to hostile).&nbsp;If you fail the check by 5 or more, the target provides you with incorrect or useless information, or otherwise frustrates your efforts.&nbsp;Demoralize Opponent: You can also use Intimidate to weaken an opponent’s resolve in combat. To do so, make an Intimidate check opposed by the target’s modified level check (see above). If you win, the target becomes shaken for 1 round. A shaken character takes a –2 penalty on attack rolls, ability checks, and saving throws. You can intimidate only an opponent that you threaten in melee combat and that can see you.&nbsp;Action: Varies. Changing another’s behavior requires 1 minute of interaction. Intimidating an opponent in combat is a standard action.&nbsp;Try Again: Optional, but not recommended because retries usually do not work. Even if the initial check succeeds, the other character can be intimidated only so far, and a retry doesn’t help. If the initial check fails, the other character has probably become more firmly resolved to resist the intimidator, and a retry is futile.&nbsp;Special: You gain a +4 bonus on your Intimidate check for every size category that you are larger than your target. Conversely, you take a –4 penalty on your Intimidate check for every size category that you are smaller than your target.&nbsp;A character immune to fear can’t be intimidated, nor can nonintelligent creatures.&nbsp;If you have the Persuasive feat, you get a +2 bonus on Intimidate checks.&nbsp;Synergy: If you have 5 or more ranks in Bluff, you get a +2 bonus on Intimidate checks.&nbsp;&nbsp;[H=1]Jump (STR; ARMOR CHECK PENALTY)[/H]Check: The DC and the distance you can cover vary according to the type of jump you are attempting (see below).&nbsp;Your Jump check is modified by your speed. If your speed is 30 feet then no modifier based on speed applies to the check. If your speed is less than 30 feet, you take a –6 penalty for every 10 feet of speed less than 30 feet. If your speed is greater than 30 feet, you gain a +4 bonus for every 10 feet beyond 30 feet.&nbsp;All Jump DCs given here assume that you get a running start, which requires that you move at least 20 feet in a straight line before attempting the jump. If you do not get a running start, the DC for the jump is doubled.&nbsp;Distance moved by jumping is counted against your normal maximum movement in a round.&nbsp;If you have ranks in Jump and you succeed on a Jump check, you land on your feet (when appropriate). If you attempt a Jump check untrained, you land prone unless you beat the DC by 5 or more.&nbsp;Long Jump: A long jump is a horizontal jump, made across a gap like a chasm or stream. At the midpoint of the jump, you attain a vertical height equal to one-quarter of the horizontal distance. The DC for the jump is equal to the distance jumped (in feet).&nbsp;If your check succeeds, you land on your feet at the far end. If you fail the check by less than 5, you don’t clear the distance, but you can make a DC 15 Reflex save to grab the far edge of the gap. You end your movement grasping the far edge. If that leaves you dangling over a chasm or gap, getting up requires a move action and a DC 15 Climb check.&nbsp;[TABLE=&quot;class: outer_border, width: 235&quot;] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 118&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Long&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Jump Distance&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 89&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Jump&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; DC[SUP]1[/SUP]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 118&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 5&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; feet&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 89&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 5&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 118&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 10&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; feet&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 89&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 10&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 118&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 15&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; feet&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 89&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 15&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 118&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 20&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; feet&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 89&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 20&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 118&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 25&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; feet&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 89&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 25&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 118&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 30&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; feet&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 89&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 30&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 221, colspan: 2&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 1 Requires a&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 20-foot running start. Without a running start, double the DC.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] &nbsp;High Jump: A high jump is a vertical leap made to reach a ledge high above or to grasp something overhead. The DC is equal to 4 times the distance to be cleared.&nbsp;If you jumped up to grab something, a successful check indicates that you reached the desired height. If you wish to pull yourself up, you can do so with a move action and a DC 15 Climb check. If you fail the Jump check, you do not reach the height, and you land on your feet in the same spot from which you jumped. As with a long jump, the DC is doubled if you do not get a running start of at least 20 feet.&nbsp;[TABLE=&quot;class: outer_border, width: 247&quot;] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 137&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; High&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Jump Distance[SUP]1[/SUP]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 82&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Jump&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; DC[SUP]2[/SUP]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 137&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 1 foot &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 82&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 4&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 137&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 2 feet &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 82&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 8&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 137&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 3 feet &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 82&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 12&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 137&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 4 feet &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 82&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 16&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 137&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 5 feet &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 82&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 20&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 137&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 6 feet &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 82&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 24&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 137&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 7 feet &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 82&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 28&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 137&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 8 feet &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 82&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 32&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 233, colspan: 2&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 1 Not&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; including vertical reach; see below.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 233, colspan: 2&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 2 Requires a&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 20-foot running start.

The maximum vertical reach (height the creature can reach without jumping) for an average creature of a given size is shown on the table below.

Doing so counts as 10 feet of movement, so if your speed is 30 feet, you could move 20 feet, then hop up onto a counter. You do not need to get a running start to hop up, so the DC is not doubled if you do not get a running start.&nbsp;Jumping Down: If you intentionally jump from a height, you take less damage than you would if you just fell. The DC to jump down from a height is 15. You do not have to get a running start to jump down, so the DC is not doubled if you do not get a running start.&nbsp;If you succeed on the check, you take falling damage as if you had dropped 10 fewer feet than you actually did.&nbsp;Action: None. A Jump check is included in your movement, so it is part of a move action. If you run out of movement mid-jump, your next action (either on this turn or, if necessary, on your next turn) must be a move action to complete the jump.&nbsp;Special: Effects that increase your movement also increase your jumping distance, since your check is modified by your speed.&nbsp;If you have the Run feat, you get a +4 bonus on Jump checks for any jumps made after a running start.&nbsp;A halfling has a +2 racial bonus on Jump checks because halflings are agile and athletic.&nbsp;If you have the Acrobatic feat, you get a +2 bonus on Jump checks.&nbsp;Synergy: If you have 5 or more ranks in Tumble, you get a +2 bonus on Jump checks.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Jump, you get a +2 bonus on Tumble checks.&nbsp;[h=1]Knowledge (INT; TRAINED ONLY)[/h]Like the Craft and Profession skills, Knowledge actually encompasses a number of unrelated skills. Knowledge represents a study of some body of lore, possibly an academic or even scientific discipline.&nbsp;Below are listed typical fields of study.[TABLE=&quot;class: outer_border, width: 800&quot;] [TR] [TD][bar]Knowledge Fields[/bar]Arcana (ancient mysteries, magic traditions, arcane symbols, cryptic phrases, constructs, dragons, magical beasts)&nbsp;Architecture and engineering (buildings, aqueducts, bridges, fortifications)&nbsp;Dungeoneering (aberrations, caverns, oozes, spelunking)&nbsp;Geography (lands, terrain, climate, people)&nbsp;History (royalty, wars, colonies, migrations, founding of cities)&nbsp;Local (legends, personalities, inhabitants, laws, customs, traditions, humanoids)&nbsp;Nature (animals, fey, giants, monstrous humanoids, plants, seasons and cycles, weather, vermin)&nbsp;Nobility and royalty (lineages, heraldry, family trees, mottoes, personalities)&nbsp;Religion (gods and goddesses, mythic history, ecclesiastic tradition, holy symbols, undead)&nbsp;The planes (the Inner Planes, the Outer Planes,&nbsp; the Astral Plane, the Ethereal Plane, outsiders, elementals, magic&nbsp; related to the planes)[/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] Check: Answering a question within your field of study has a DC of 10 (for really easy questions), 15 (for basic questions), or 20 to 30 (for really tough questions).&nbsp;In many cases, you can use this skill to identify monsters and their special powers or vulnerabilities. In general, the DC of such a check equals 10 + the monster’s HD. A successful check allows you to remember a bit of useful information about that monster.&nbsp;For every 5 points by which your check result exceeds the DC, you recall another piece of useful information.&nbsp;Action: Usually none. In most cases, making a Knowledge check doesn’t take an action—you simply know the answer or you don’t.&nbsp;Try Again: No. The check represents what you know, and thinking about a topic a second time doesn’t let you know something that you never learned in the first place.&nbsp;SynergyIf you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (arcana), you get a +2 bonus on Spellcraft checks.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (architecture and engineering), you get a +2 bonus on Search checks made to find secret doors or hidden compartments.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (geography), you get a +2 bonus on Survival checks made to keep from getting lost or to avoid natural hazards.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (history), you get a +2 bonus on bardic knowledge checks.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (local), you get a +2 bonus on Gather Information checks.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (nature), you get a +2 bonus on Survival checks made in aboveground natural environments (aquatic, desert, forest, hill, marsh, mountains, or plains).&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (nobility and royalty), you get a +2 bonus on Diplomacy checks.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (religion), you get a +2 bonus on turning checks against undead.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (the planes), you get a +2 bonus on Survival checks made while on other planes.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (dungeoneering), you get a +2 bonus on Survival checks made while underground.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Survival, you get a +2 bonus on Knowledge (nature) checks.&nbsp;Untrained: An untrained Knowledge check is simply an Intelligence check. Without actual training, you know only common knowledge (DC 10 or lower).&nbsp;[h=1]Listen (WIS)[/h]Check: Your Listen check is either made against a DC that reflects how quiet the noise is that you might hear, or it is opposed by your target’s Move Silently check.&nbsp;&nbsp;[TABLE=&quot;class: outer_border, width: 640&quot;] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 65&quot;]&nbsp;

Trying to earn money by playing in public requires anywhere from an evening’s work to a full day’s performance. The bard’s special Perform-based abilities are described in that class’s description.&nbsp;Try Again: Yes. Retries are allowed, but they don’t negate previous failures, and an audience that has been unimpressed in the past is likely to be prejudiced against future performances. (Increase the DC by 2 for each previous failure.)&nbsp;Special: A bard must have at least 3 ranks in a Perform skill to inspire courage in his allies, or to use his countersong or his fascinate ability. A bard needs 6 ranks in a Perform skill to inspire competence, 9 ranks to use his suggestion ability, 12 ranks to inspire greatness, 15 ranks to use his song of freedom ability, 18 ranks to inspire heroics, and 21 ranks to use his mass suggestion ability. See Bardic Music in the bard class description.&nbsp;In addition to using the Perform skill, you can entertain people with sleight of hand, tumbling, tightrope walking, and spells (especially illusions).&nbsp;[h=1]Profession (WIS; TRAINED ONLY)[/h]Like Craft, Knowledge, and Perform, Profession is actually a number of separate skills. You could have several Profession skills, each with its own ranks, each purchased as a separate skill. While a Craft skill represents ability in creating or making an item, a Profession skill represents an aptitude in a vocation requiring a broader range of less specific knowledge. &nbsp;Check: You can practice your trade and make a decent living, earning about half your Profession check result in gold pieces per week of dedicated work. You know how to use the tools of your trade, how to perform the profession’s daily tasks, how to supervise helpers, and how to handle common problems.&nbsp;Action: Not applicable. A single check generally represents a week of work.&nbsp;Try Again: Varies. An attempt to use a Profession skill to earn an income cannot be retried. You are stuck with whatever weekly wage your check result brought you. Another check may be made after a week to determine a new income for the next period of time. An attempt to accomplish some specific task can usually be retried.&nbsp;Untrained: Untrained laborers and assistants (that is, characters without any ranks in Profession) earn an average of 1 silver piece per day.&nbsp;[h=1]Ride (DEX)[/h]If you attempt to ride a creature that is ill suited as a mount, you take a –5 penalty on your Ride checks.&nbsp;Check: Typical riding actions don’t require checks.

Make your Ride check at the start of your turn. If you fail, you can use only one hand this round because you need to use the other to control your mount.&nbsp;Stay in Saddle: You can react instantly to try to avoid falling when your mount rears or bolts unexpectedly or when you take damage. This usage does not take an action.&nbsp;Fight with Warhorse: If you direct your war-trained mount to attack in battle, you can still make your own attack or attacks normally. This usage is a free action.&nbsp;Cover: You can react instantly to drop down and hang alongside your mount, using it as cover. You can’t attack or cast spells while using your mount as cover. If you fail your Ride check, you don’t get the cover benefit. This usage does not take an action.&nbsp;Soft Fall: You can react instantly to try to take no damage when you fall off a mount—when it is killed or when it falls, for example. If you fail your Ride check, you take 1d6 points of falling damage. This usage does not take an action.&nbsp;Leap: You can get your mount to leap obstacles as part of its movement. Use your Ride modifier or the mount’s Jump modifier, whichever is lower, to see how far the creature can jump. If you fail your Ride check, you fall off the mount when it leaps and take the appropriate falling damage (at least 1d6 points). This usage does not take an action, but is part of the mount’s movement.&nbsp;Spur Mount: You can spur your mount to greater speed with a move action. A successful Ride check increases the mount’s speed by 10 feet for 1 round but deals 1 point of damage to the creature. You can use this ability every round, but each consecutive round of additional speed deals twice as much damage to the mount as the previous round (2 points, 4 points, 8 points, and so on).&nbsp;Control Mount in Battle: As a move action, you can attempt to control a light horse, pony, heavy horse, or other mount not trained for combat riding while in battle. If you fail the Ride check, you can do nothing else in that round. You do not need to roll for warhorses or warponies.&nbsp;Fast Mount or Dismount: You can attempt to mount or dismount from a mount of up to one size category larger than yourself as a free action, provided that you still have a move action available that round. If you fail the Ride check, mounting or dismounting is a move action. You can’t use fast mount or dismount on a mount more than one size category larger than yourself.&nbsp;Action: Varies. Mounting or dismounting normally is a move action. Other checks are a move action, a free action, or no action at all, as noted above.&nbsp;Special: If you are riding bareback, you take a –5 penalty on Ride checks.&nbsp;If your mount has a military saddle you get a +2 circumstance bonus on Ride checks related to staying in the saddle.&nbsp;The Ride skill is a prerequisite for the feats Mounted Archery, Mounted Combat, Ride-By Attack, Spirited Charge,&nbsp;Trample.&nbsp;If you have the Animal Affinity feat, you get a +2 bonus on Ride checks.&nbsp;Synergy: If you have 5 or more ranks in Handle Animal, you get a +2 bonus on Ride checks.&nbsp;[h=1]Search (INT)[/h]Check: You generally must be within 10 feet of the object or surface to be searched.

See the Track feat for the appropriate DC.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] &nbsp;Action: It takes a full-round action to search a 5-foot-by-5-foot area or a volume of goods 5 feet on a side.&nbsp;Special: An elf has a +2 racial bonus on Search checks, and a half-elf has a +1 racial bonus. An elf (but not a half-elf) who simply passes within 5 feet of a secret or concealed door can make a Search check to find that door.&nbsp;If you have the Investigator feat, you get a +2 bonus on Search checks.&nbsp;The spells explosive runes, fire trap, glyph of warding, symbol, and teleportation circle create magic traps that a rogue can find by making a successful Search check and then can attempt to disarm by using Disable Device. Identifying the location of a snare spell has a DC of 23. Spike growth and spike stones create magic traps that can be found using Search, but against which Disable Device checks do not succeed. See the individual spell descriptions for details.&nbsp;Active abjuration spells within 10 feet of each other for 24 hours or more create barely visible energy fluctuations. These fluctuations give you a +4 bonus on Search checks to locate such abjuration spells.&nbsp;Synergy: If you have 5 or more ranks in Search, you get a +2 bonus on Survival checks to find or follow tracks.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (architecture and engineering), you get a +2 bonus on Search checks to find secret doors or hidden compartments.&nbsp;Restriction: While anyone can use Search to find a trap whose DC is 20 or lower, only a rogue can use Search to locate traps with higher DCs. (Exception: The spell find traps temporarily enables a cleric to use the Search skill as if he were a rogue.)&nbsp;A dwarf, even one who is not a rogue, can use the Search skill to find a difficult trap (one with a DC higher than 20) if the trap is built into or out of stone. He gains a +2 racial bonus on the Search check from his stonecunning ability.&nbsp;[h=1]Sense Motive (WIS)[/h]Check: A successful check lets you avoid being bluffed (see the Bluff skill). You can also use this skill to determine when “something is up” (that is, something odd is going on) or to assess someone’s trustworthiness. &nbsp;[TABLE=&quot;class: outer_border, width: 251&quot;] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 125&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Task&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 98&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Sense&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Motive DC&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 125&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Hunch &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 98&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 20&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 125&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Sense&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; enchantment &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 98&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 25&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; or 15&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 125&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Discern&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; secret message &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 98&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Varies&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] &nbsp;Hunch: This use of the skill involves making a gut assessment of the social situation. You can get the feeling from another’s behavior that something is wrong, such as when you’re talking to an impostor. Alternatively, you can get the feeling that someone is trustworthy.&nbsp;Sense Enchantment: You can tell that someone’s behavior is being influenced by an enchantment effect (by definition, a mind-affecting effect),even if that person isn’t aware of it. The usual DC is 25, but if the target is dominated (see dominate person), the DC is only 15 because of the limited range of the target’s activities.&nbsp;Discern Secret Message: You may use Sense Motive to detect that a hidden message is being transmitted via the Bluff skill. In this case, your Sense Motive check is opposed by the Bluff check of the character transmitting the message. For each piece of information relating to the message that you are missing, you take a –2 penalty on your Sense Motive check. If you succeed by 4 or less, you know that something hidden is being communicated, but you can’t learn anything specific about its content. If you beat the DC by 5 or more, you intercept and understand the message. If you fail by 4 or less, you don’t detect any hidden communication. If you fail by 5 or more, you infer some false information.&nbsp;Action: Trying to gain information with Sense Motive generally takes at least 1 minute, and you could spend a whole evening trying to get a sense of the people around you.&nbsp;Try Again: No, though you may make a Sense Motive check for each Bluff check made against you.&nbsp;Special: A ranger gains a bonus on Sense Motive checks when using this skill against a favored enemy.&nbsp;If you have the Negotiator feat, you get a +2 bonus on Sense Motive checks.&nbsp;Synergy: If you have 5 or more ranks in Sense Motive, you get a +2 bonus on Diplomacy checks.&nbsp;[h=1]Sleight of Hand (DEX; TRAINED ONLY; ARMOR CHECK PENALTY)[/h]Check: A DC 10 Sleight of Hand check lets you palm a coin-sized, unattended object. Performing a minor feat of legerdemain, such as making a coin disappear, also has a DC of 10 unless an observer is determined to note where the item went.&nbsp;When you use this skill under close observation, your skill check is opposed by the observer’s Spot check. The observer’s success doesn’t prevent you from performing the action, just from doing it unnoticed.&nbsp;You can hide a small object (including a light weapon or an easily concealed ranged weapon, such as a dart, sling, or hand crossbow) on your body. Your Sleight of Hand check is opposed by the Spot check of anyone observing you or the Search check of anyone frisking you. In the latter case, the searcher gains a +4 bonus on the Search check, since it’s generally easier to find such an object than to hide it. A dagger is easier to hide than most light weapons, and grants you a +2 bonus on your Sleight of Hand check to conceal it. An extraordinarily small object, such as a coin, shuriken, or ring, grants you a +4 bonus on your Sleight of Hand check to conceal it, and heavy or baggy clothing (such as a cloak) grants you a +2 bonus on the check.&nbsp;Drawing a hidden weapon is a standard action and doesn’t provoke an attack of opportunity.&nbsp;If you try to take something from another creature, you must make a DC 20 Sleight of Hand check to obtain it. The opponent makes a Spot check to detect the attempt, opposed by the same Sleight of Hand check result you achieved when you tried to grab the item. An opponent who succeeds on this check notices the attempt, regardless of whether you got the item.&nbsp;You can also use Sleight of Hand to entertain an audience as though you were using the Perform skill. In such a case, your “act” encompasses elements of legerdemain, juggling, and the like.&nbsp;&nbsp;[TABLE=&quot;class: outer_border, width: 397&quot;] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 112&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Sleight&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; of Hand DC &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 257&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Task&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 112&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 10&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 257&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Palm a&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; coin-sized object, make a coin disappear&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 112&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 20&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 257&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Lift a small&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; object from a person&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] &nbsp;Action: Any Sleight of Hand check normally is a standard action. However, you may perform a Sleight of Hand check as a free action by taking a –20 penalty on the check.&nbsp;Try Again: Yes, but after an initial failure, a second Sleight of Hand attempt against the same target (or while you are being watched by the same observer who noticed your previous attempt) increases the DC for the task by 10.&nbsp;Special: If you have the Deft Hands feat, you get a +2 bonus on Sleight of Hand checks.&nbsp;Synergy: If you have 5 or more ranks in Bluff, you get a +2 bonus on Sleight of Hand checks.&nbsp;Untrained: An untrained Sleight of Hand check is simply a Dexterity check. Without actual training, you can’t succeed on any Sleight of Hand check with a DC higher than 10, except for hiding an object on your body.&nbsp;[h=1]Speak Language (NONE; TRAINED ONLY)[/h]&nbsp;[TABLE=&quot;class: outer_border, width: 395&quot;] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 381, colspan: 3&quot;]&nbsp;

Typically, your Spot check is opposed by the Hide check of the creature trying not to be seen. Sometimes a creature isn’t intentionally hiding but is still difficult to see, so a successful Spot check is necessary to notice it.&nbsp;A Spot check result higher than 20 generally lets you become aware of an invisible creature near you, though you can’t actually see it.&nbsp;Spot is also used to detect someone in disguise (see the Disguise skill), and to read lips when you can’t hear or understand what someone is saying.&nbsp;Spot checks may be called for to determine the distance at which an encounter begins. A penalty applies on such checks, depending on the distance between the two individuals or groups, and an additional penalty may apply if the character making the Spot check is distracted (not concentrating on being observant).&nbsp;&nbsp;[TABLE=&quot;class: outer_border, width: 191&quot;] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 120&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Condition&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 43&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Penalty&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 120&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Per 10 feet&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; of distance &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 43&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; –1&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 120&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Spotter&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; distracted &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 43&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; –5&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] &nbsp;Read Lips: To understand what someone is saying by reading lips, you must be within 30 feet of the speaker, be able to see him or her speak, and understand the speaker’s language. (This use of the skill is language-dependent.) The base DC is 15, but it increases for complex speech or an inarticulate speaker. You must maintain a line of sight to the lips being read.&nbsp;If your Spot check succeeds, you can understand the general content of a minute’s worth of speaking, but you usually still miss certain details. If the check fails by 4 or less, you can’t read the speaker’s lips. If the check fails by 5 or more, you draw some incorrect conclusion about the speech. The check is rolled secretly in this case, so that you don’t know whether you succeeded or missed by 5.&nbsp;Action: Varies. Every time you have a chance to spot something in a reactive manner you can make a Spot check without using an action. Trying to spot something you failed to see previously is a move action. To read lips, you must concentrate for a full minute before making a Spot check, and you can’t perform any other action (other than moving at up to half speed) during this minute.&nbsp;Try Again: Yes. You can try to spot something that you failed to see previously at no penalty. You can attempt to read lips once per minute.&nbsp;Special: A fascinated creature takes a –4 penalty on Spot checks made as reactions.&nbsp;If you have the Alertness feat, you get a +2 bonus on Spot checks.&nbsp;A ranger gains a bonus on Spot checks when using this skill against a favored enemy.&nbsp;An elf has a +2 racial bonus on Spot checks.&nbsp;A half-elf has a +1 racial bonus on Spot checks.&nbsp;The master of a hawk familiar gains a +3 bonus on Spot checks in daylight or other lighted areas.&nbsp;The master of an owl familiar gains a +3 bonus on Spot checks in shadowy or other darkened areas.&nbsp;[h=1]Survival (WIS)[/h]Check: You can keep yourself and others safe and fed in the wild.

A single Survival check may represent activity over the course of hours or a full day. A Survival check made to find tracks is at least a full-round action, and it may take even longer.&nbsp;Try Again: Varies. For getting along in the wild or for gaining the Fortitude save bonus noted in the table above, you make a Survival check once every 24 hours. The result of that check applies until the next check is made. To avoid getting lost or avoid natural hazards, you make a Survival check whenever the situation calls for one. Retries to avoid getting lost in a specific situation or to avoid a specific natural hazard are not allowed. For finding tracks, you can retry a failed check after 1 hour (outdoors) or 10 minutes(indoors) of searching.&nbsp;Restriction: While anyone can use Survival to find tracks (regardless of the DC), or to follow tracks when the DC for the task is 10 or lower, only a ranger (or a character with the Track feat) can use Survival to follow tracks when the task has a higher DC.&nbsp;Special: If you have 5 or more ranks in Survival, you can automatically determine where true north lies in relation to yourself.&nbsp;A ranger gains a bonus on Survival checks when using this skill to find or follow the tracks of a favored enemy.&nbsp;If you have the Self-Sufficient feat, you get a +2 bonus on Survival checks.&nbsp;Synergy: If you have 5 or more ranks in Survival, you get a +2 bonus on Knowledge (nature) checks.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (dungeoneering), you get a +2 bonus on Survival checks made while underground.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (nature), you get a +2 bonus on Survival checks in aboveground natural environments (aquatic, desert, forest, hill, marsh, mountains, and plains).&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (geography), you get a +2 bonus on Survival checks made to keep from getting lost or to avoid natural hazards.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Knowledge (the planes), you get a +2 bonus on Survival checks made while on other planes.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Search, you get a +2 bonus on Survival checks to find or follow tracks.&nbsp;[h=1]Swim (STR; ARMOR CHECK PENALTY)[/h]Check: Make a Swim check once per round while you are in the water. Success means you may swim at up to one-half your speed (as a full-round action) or at one-quarter your speed (as a move action). If you fail by 4 or less, you make no progress through the water. If you fail by 5 or more, you go underwater.&nbsp;If you are underwater, either because you failed a Swim check or because you are swimming underwater intentionally, you must hold your breath. You can hold your breath for a number of rounds equal to your Constitution score, but only if you do nothing other than take move actions or free actions. If you take a standard action or a full-round action (such as making an attack), the remainder of the duration for which you can hold your breath is reduced by 1 round. (Effectively, a character in combat can hold his or her breath only half as long as normal.) After that period of time, you must make a DC 10 Constitution check every round to continue holding your breath. Each round, the DC for that check increases by 1. If you fail the Constitution check, you begin to drown.&nbsp;The DC for the Swim check depends on the water, as given on the table below.&nbsp;&nbsp;[TABLE=&quot;class: outer_border, width: 247&quot;] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 137&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Water&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 82&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Swim&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; DC&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 137&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Calm water &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 82&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 10&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 137&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Rough water &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 82&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 15&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 137&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Stormy water&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 82&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 20[SUP]1[/SUP]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 233, colspan: 2&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 1 You can’t&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; take 10 on a Swim check in stormy water, even if you aren’t&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; otherwise being threatened or distracted.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] &nbsp;Each hour that you swim, you must make a DC 20 Swim check or take 1d6 points of nonlethal damage from fatigue.&nbsp;Action: A successful Swim check allows you to swim one-quarter of your speed as a move action or one-half your speed as a full-round action.&nbsp;Special: Swim checks are subject to double the normal armor check penalty and encumbrance penalty.&nbsp;If you have the Athletic feat, you get a +2 bonus on Swim checks.&nbsp;If you have the Endurance feat, you get a +4 bonus on Swim checks made to avoid taking nonlethal damage from fatigue.&nbsp;A creature with a swim speed can move through water at its indicated speed without making Swim checks. It gains a +8 racial bonus on any Swim check to perform a special action or avoid a hazard. The creature always can choose to take 10 on a Swim check, even if distracted or endangered when swimming. Such a creature can use the run action while swimming, provided that it swims in a straight line.&nbsp;[h=1]Tumble (DEX; TRAINED ONLY; ARMOR CHECK PENALTY)[/h]You can’t use this skill if your speed has been reduced by armor, excess equipment, or loot.&nbsp;Check: You can land softly when you fall or tumble past opponents.

The DCs for various tasks involving Use Magic Device checks are summarized on the table below.&nbsp;&nbsp;[TABLE=&quot;class: outer_border, width: 281&quot;] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 130&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Task&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 124&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Use&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Magic Device DC&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 130&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Activate&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; blindly &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 124&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 25&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 130&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Decipher a&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; written spell &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 124&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 25&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; + spell level&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 130&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Use a scroll&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 124&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 20&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; + caster level&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 130&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Use a wand &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 124&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 20&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 130&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Emulate a&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; class feature &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 124&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 20&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 130&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Emulate an&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; ability score &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 124&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; See&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; text&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 130&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Emulate a&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; race &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 124&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 25&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 130&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Emulate an&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; alignment &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 124&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 30&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] &nbsp;Activate Blindly: Some magic items are activated by special words, thoughts, or actions. You can activate such an item as if you were using the activation word, thought, or action, even when you’re not and even if you don’t know it. You do have to perform some equivalent activity in order to make the check. That is, you must speak, wave the item around, or otherwise attempt to get it to activate. You get a special +2 bonus on your Use Magic Device check if you’ve activated the item in question at least once before. If you fail by 9 or less, you can’t activate the device. If you fail by 10 or more, you suffer a mishap. A mishap means that magical energy gets released but it doesn’t do what you wanted it to do. The default mishaps are that the item affects the wrong target or that uncontrolled magical energy is released, dealing 2d6 points of damage to you. This mishap is in addition to the chance for a mishap that you normally run when you cast a spell from a scroll that you could not otherwise cast yourself.&nbsp;Decipher a Written Spell: This usage works just like deciphering a written spell with the Spellcraft skill, except that the DC is 5 points higher. Deciphering a written spell requires 1 minute of concentration.&nbsp;Emulate an Ability Score: To cast a spell from a scroll, you need a high score in the appropriate ability (Intelligence for wizard spells, Wisdom for divine spells, or Charisma for sorcerer or bard spells). Your effective ability score (appropriate to the class you’re emulating when you try to cast the spell from the scroll) is your Use Magic Device check result minus 15. If you already have a high enough score in the appropriate ability, you don’t need to make this check.&nbsp;Emulate an Alignment: Some magic items have positive or negative effects based on the user’s alignment. Use Magic Device lets you use these items as if you were of an alignment of your choice. You can emulate only one alignment at a time.&nbsp;Emulate a Class Feature: Sometimes you need to use a class feature to activate a magic item. In this case, your effective level in the emulated class equals your Use Magic Device check result minus 20.&nbsp; This skill does not let you actually use the class feature of another class. It just lets you activate items as if you had that class feature. If the class whose feature you are emulating has an alignment requirement, you must meet it, either honestly or by emulating an appropriate alignment with a separate Use Magic Device check (see above).&nbsp;Emulate a Race: Some magic items work only for members of certain races, or work better for members of those races. You can use such an item as if you were a race of your choice. You can emulate only one race at a time.&nbsp;Use a Scroll: If you are casting a spell from a scroll, you have to decipher it first. Normally, to cast a spell from a scroll, you must have the scroll’s spell on your class spell list. Use Magic Device allows you to use a scroll as if you had a particular spell on your class spell list. The DC is equal to 20 + the caster level of the spell you are trying to cast from the scroll. In addition, casting a spell from a scroll requires a minimum score (10 + spell level) in the appropriate ability. If you don’t have a sufficient score in that ability, you must emulate the ability score with a separate Use Magic Device check (see above).&nbsp;This use of the skill also applies to other spell completion magic items.&nbsp;Use a Wand: Normally, to use a wand, you must have the wand’s spell on your class spell list. This use of the skill allows you to use a wand as if you had a particular spell on your class spell list. This use of the skill also applies to other spell trigger magic items, such as staffs.&nbsp;Action: None. The Use Magic Device check is made as part of the action (if any) required to activate the magic item.&nbsp;Try Again: Yes, but if you ever roll a natural 1 while attempting to activate an item and you fail, then you can’t try to activate that item again for 24 hours.&nbsp;Special: You cannot take 10 with this skill.&nbsp;You can’t aid another on Use Magic Device checks. Only the user of the item may attempt such a check.&nbsp;If you have the Magical Aptitude feat, you get a +2 bonus on Use Magic Device checks.&nbsp;Synergy: If you have 5 or more ranks in Spellcraft, you get a +2 bonus on Use Magic Device checks related to scrolls.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Decipher Script, you get a +2 bonus on Use Magic Device checks related to scrolls.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Use Magic Device, you get a +2 bonus to Spellcraft checks made to decipher spells on scrolls.&nbsp;[h=1]Use Rope (DEX)[/h]Check: Most tasks with a rope are relatively simple. The DCs for various tasks utilizing this skill are summarized on the table below.&nbsp;&nbsp;[TABLE=&quot;class: outer_border, width: 525&quot;] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 83&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Use&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Rope DC&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 414&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Task&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 83&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 10&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 414&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Tie a firm&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; knot&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 83&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 10[SUP]1[/SUP]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 414&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Secure a&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; grappling hook&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 83&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 15&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 414&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Tie a&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; special knot, such as one that slips, slides slowly, or loosens&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; with a tug&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 83&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 15&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 414&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Tie a rope&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; around yourself one-handed&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 83&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 15&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 414&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Splice two&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; ropes together&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 83&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Varies&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [TD=&quot;width: 414&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; Bind a&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; character&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD=&quot;width: 511, colspan: 2&quot;]&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; 1 Add 2 to&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; the DC for every 10 feet the hook is thrown; see below.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp; [/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] &nbsp;Secure a Grappling Hook: Securing a grappling hook requires a Use Rope check (DC 10, +2 for every 10 feet of distance the grappling hook is thrown, to a maximum DC of 20 at 50 feet). Failure by 4 or less indicates that the hook fails to catch and falls, allowing you to try again. Failure by 5 or more indicates that the grappling hook initially holds, but comes loose after 1d4 rounds of supporting weight. This check is made secretly, so that you don’t know whether the rope will hold your weight.&nbsp;Bind a Character: When you bind another character with a rope, any Escape Artist check that the bound character makes is opposed by your Use Rope check.&nbsp;You get a +10 bonus on this check because it is easier to bind someone than to escape from bonds. You don’t even make your Use Rope check until someone tries to escape.&nbsp;Action: Varies. Throwing a grappling hook is a standard action that provokes an attack of opportunity. Tying a knot, tying a special knot, or tying a rope around yourself one-handed is a full-round action that provokes an attack of opportunity. Splicing two ropes together takes 5 minutes. Binding a character takes 1 minute.&nbsp;Special: A silk rope gives you a +2 circumstance bonus on Use Rope checks. If you cast an animate rope spell on a rope, you get a +2 circumstance bonus on any Use Rope checks you make when using that rope.&nbsp;These bonuses stack.&nbsp;If you have the Deft Hands feat, you get a +2 bonus on Use Rope checks.&nbsp;Synergy: If you have 5 or more ranks in Use Rope, you get a +2 bonus on Climb checks made to climb a rope, a knotted rope, or a rope-and-wall combination.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Use Rope, you get a +2 bonus on Escape Artist checks when escaping from rope bonds.&nbsp;If you have 5 or more ranks in Escape Artist, you get a +2 bonus on checks made to bind someone.[HI][srd]Revised d20 System Reference Document[/srd][/HI]

If a character has negative hit points and is losing hit points (at the rate of 1 per round, 1 per hour, or 1 per day), you can make him or her stable. A stable character regains no hit points but stops losing them.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Long-Term Care: [/I]Providing long-term care means treating a wounded person for a day or more. If your Heal check is successful, the patient recovers hit points or ability score points (lost to ability damage) at twice the normal rate: 2 hit points per level for a full 8 hours of rest in a day, or 4 hit points per level for each full day of complete rest; 2 ability score points for a full 8 hours of rest in a day, or 4 ability score points for each full day of complete rest.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] You can tend as many as six patients at a time. You need a few items and supplies (bandages, salves, and so on) that are easy to come by in settled lands. Giving long-term care counts as light activity for the healer. You cannot give long-term care to yourself.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Treat Wound from Caltrop, Spike Growth, or Spike Stones: [/I]A creature wounded by stepping on a caltrop moves at one-half normal speed. A successful Heal check removes this movement penalty.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]A creature wounded by a [I]spike growth [/I]or [I]spike stones [/I]spell must succeed on a Reflex save or take injuries that reduce his speed by one-third. Another character can remove this penalty by taking 10 minutes to dress the victim’s injuries and succeeding on a Heal check against the spell’s save DC.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Treat Poison: [/I]To treat poison means to tend a single character who has been poisoned and who is going to take more damage from the poison (or suffer some other effect). Every time the poisoned character makes a saving throw against the poison, you make a Heal check. The poisoned character uses your check result or his or her saving throw, whichever is higher.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Treat Disease: [/I]To treat a disease means to tend a single diseased character. Every time he or she makes a saving throw against disease effects, you make a Heal check. The diseased character uses your check result or his or her saving throw, whichever is higher.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B] Action:[/B] Providing first aid, treating a wound, or treating poison is a standard action. Treating a disease or tending a creature wounded by a [I]spike growth [/I]or [I]spike stones [/I]spell takes 10 minutes of work. Providing long-term care requires 8 hours of light activity.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B] Try Again:[/B] Varies. Generally speaking, you can’t try a Heal check again without proof of the original check’s failure. You can always retry a check to provide first aid, assuming the target of the previous attempt is still alive.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B] Special:[/B] A character with the Self-Sufficient feat gets a +2 bonus on Heal checks.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] A healer’s kit gives you a +2 circumstance bonus on Heal checks.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][h=1]Hide (DEX; ARMOR CHECK PENALTY)[/h][/COLOR][COLOR=#000000][B]Check:[/B] Your Hide check is opposed by the Spot check of anyone who might see you. You can move up to one-half your normal speed and hide at no penalty. When moving at a speed greater than one-half but less than your normal speed, you take a –5 penalty. It’s practically impossible (–20 penalty) to hide while attacking, running or charging.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] A creature larger or smaller than Medium takes a size bonus or penalty on Hide checks depending on its size category: Fine +16, Diminutive +12, Tiny +8, Small +4, Large –4, Huge –8, Gargantuan –12, Colossal –16.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] You need cover or concealment in order to attempt a Hide check. Total cover or total concealment usually (but not always; see Special, below) obviates the need for a Hide check, since nothing can see you anyway.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] If people are observing you, even casually, you can’t hide. You can run around a corner or behind cover so that you’re out of sight and then hide, but the others then know at least where you went. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]If your observers are momentarily distracted (such as by a Bluff check; see below), though, you can attempt to hide. While the others turn their attention from you, you can attempt a Hide check if you can get to a hiding place of some kind. (As a general guideline, the hiding place has to be within 1 foot per rank you have in Hide.) This check, however, is made at a –10 penalty because you have to move fast. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I]Sniping: [/I]If you’ve already successfully hidden at least 10 feet from your target, you can make one ranged attack, then immediately hide again. You take a –20 penalty on your Hide check to conceal yourself after the shot. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I]Creating a Diversion to Hide: [/I]You can use Bluff to help you hide. A successful Bluff check can give you the momentary diversion you need to attempt a Hide check while people are aware of you. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B]Action:[/B] Usually none. Normally, you make a Hide check as part of movement, so it doesn’t take a separate action. However, hiding immediately after a ranged attack (see Sniping, above) is a move action. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B]Special:[/B] If you are invisible, you gain a +40 bonus on Hide checks if you are immobile, or a +20 bonus on Hide checks if you’re moving. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]If you have the Stealthy feat, you get a +2 bonus on Hide checks. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]A 13th-level ranger can attempt a Hide check in any sort of natural terrain, even if it doesn’t grant cover or concealment. A 17thlevel ranger can do this even while being observed.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][H=1]Intimidate (CHA)[/H][/COLOR][COLOR=#000000][B]Check:[/B] You can change another’s behavior with a successful check. Your Intimidate check is opposed by the target’s modified level check (1d20 + character level or Hit Dice + target’s Wisdom bonus [if any] + target’s modifiers on saves against fear). If you beat your target’s check result, you may treat the target as friendly, but only for the purpose of actions taken while it remains intimidated. (That is, the target retains its normal attitude, but will chat, advise, offer limited help, or advocate on your behalf while intimidated. See the Diplomacy skill, above, for additional details.) The effect lasts as long as the target remains in your presence, and for 1d6×10 minutes afterward. After this time, the target’s default attitude toward you shifts to unfriendly (or, if normally unfriendly, to hostile). [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]If you fail the check by 5 or more, the target provides you with incorrect or useless information, or otherwise frustrates your efforts. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I]Demoralize Opponent: [/I]You can also use Intimidate to weaken an opponent’s resolve in combat. To do so, make an Intimidate check opposed by the target’s modified level check (see above). If you win, the target becomes shaken for 1 round. A shaken character takes a –2 penalty on attack rolls, ability checks, and saving throws. You can intimidate only an opponent that you threaten in melee combat and that can see you. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B]Action:[/B] Varies. Changing another’s behavior requires 1 minute of interaction. Intimidating an opponent in combat is a standard action. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B]Try Again:[/B] Optional, but not recommended because retries usually do not work. Even if the initial check succeeds, the other character can be intimidated only so far, and a retry doesn’t help. If the initial check fails, the other character has probably become more firmly resolved to resist the intimidator, and a retry is futile. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B]Special:[/B] You gain a +4 bonus on your Intimidate check for every size category that you are larger than your target. Conversely, you take a –4 penalty on your Intimidate check for every size category that you are smaller than your target.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]A character immune to fear can’t be intimidated, nor can nonintelligent creatures. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]If you have the Persuasive feat, you get a +2 bonus on Intimidate checks. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B]Synergy:[/B] If you have 5 or more ranks in Bluff, you get a +2 bonus on Intimidate checks.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][H=1]Jump (STR; ARMOR CHECK PENALTY)[/H][/COLOR][COLOR=#000000][B]Check:[/B] The DC and the distance you can cover vary according to the type of jump you are attempting (see below). [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]Your Jump check is modified by your speed. If your speed is 30 feet then no modifier based on speed applies to the check. If your speed is less than 30 feet, you take a –6 penalty for every 10 feet of speed less than 30 feet. If your speed is greater than 30 feet, you gain a +4 bonus for every 10 feet beyond 30 feet. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]All Jump DCs given here assume that you get a running start, which requires that you move at least 20 feet in a straight line before attempting the jump. If you do not get a running start, the DC for the jump is doubled.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]Distance moved by jumping is counted against your normal maximum movement in a round. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000]If you have ranks in Jump and you succeed on a Jump check, you land on your feet (when appropriate). If you attempt a Jump check untrained, you land prone unless you beat the DC by 5 or more. [/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I]Long Jump: [/I]A long jump is a horizontal jump, made across a gap like a chasm or stream. At the midpoint of the jump, you attain a vertical height equal to one-quarter of the horizontal distance. The DC for the jump is equal to the distance jumped (in feet).

A successful Ride check increases the mount’s speed by 10 feet for 1 round but deals 1 point of damage to the creature.

You do not need to roll for warhorses or warponies.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Fast Mount or Dismount: [/I]You can attempt to mount or dismount from a mount of up to one size category larger than yourself as a free action, provided that you still have a move action available that round.

You can’t use fast mount or dismount on a mount more than one size category larger than yourself.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B] Action:[/B] Varies. Mounting or dismounting normally is a move action.

The usual DC is 25, but if the target is dominated (see [I]dominate person[/I]), the DC is only 15 because of the limited range of the target’s activities.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Discern Secret Message: [/I]You may use Sense Motive to detect that a hidden message is being transmitted via the Bluff skill. In this case, your Sense Motive check is opposed by the Bluff check of the character transmitting the message. For each piece of information relating to the message that you are missing, you take a –2 penalty on your Sense Motive check. If you succeed by 4 or less, you know that something hidden is being communicated, but you can’t learn anything specific about its content.

Performing a minor feat of legerdemain, such as making a coin disappear, also has a DC of 10 unless an observer is determined to note where the item went.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] When you use this skill under close observation, your skill check is opposed by the observer’s Spot check. The observer’s success doesn’t prevent you from performing the action, just from doing it unnoticed.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] You can hide a small object (including a light weapon or an easily concealed ranged weapon, such as a dart, sling, or hand crossbow) on your body. Your Sleight of Hand check is opposed by the Spot check of anyone observing you or the Search check of anyone frisking you. In the latter case, the searcher gains a +4 bonus on the Search check, since it’s generally easier to find such an object than to hide it. A dagger is easier to hide than most light weapons, and grants you a +2 bonus on your Sleight of Hand check to conceal it. An extraordinarily small object, such as a coin, shuriken, or ring, grants you a +4 bonus on your Sleight of Hand check to conceal it, and heavy or baggy clothing (such as a cloak) grants you a +2 bonus on the check.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] Drawing a hidden weapon is a standard action and doesn’t provoke an attack of opportunity.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] If you try to take something from another creature, you must make a DC 20 Sleight of Hand check to obtain it. The opponent makes a Spot check to detect the attempt, opposed by the same Sleight of Hand check result you achieved when you tried to grab the item. An opponent who succeeds on this check notices the attempt, regardless of whether you got the item.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] You can also use Sleight of Hand to entertain an audience as though you were using the Perform skill.

Sometimes a creature isn’t intentionally hiding but is still difficult to see, so a successful Spot check is necessary to notice it.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] A Spot check result higher than 20 generally lets you become aware of an invisible creature near you, though you can’t actually see it.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] Spot is also used to detect someone in disguise (see the Disguise skill), and to read lips when you can’t hear or understand what someone is saying.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] Spot checks may be called for to determine the distance at which an encounter begins.

(This use of the skill is language-dependent.) The base DC is 15, but it increases for complex speech or an inarticulate speaker. You must maintain a line of sight to the lips being read.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] If your Spot check succeeds, you can understand the general content of a minute’s worth of speaking, but you usually still miss certain details. If the check fails by 4 or less, you can’t read the speaker’s lips. If the check fails by 5 or more, you draw some incorrect conclusion about the speech. The check is rolled secretly in this case, so that you don’t know whether you succeeded or missed by 5.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B] Action: [/B]Varies. Every time you have a chance to spot something in a reactive manner you can make a Spot check without using an action. Trying to spot something you failed to see previously is a move action. To read lips, you must concentrate for a full minute before making a Spot check, and you can’t perform any other action (other than moving at up to half speed) during this minute.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B] Try Again:[/B] Yes.

For getting along in the wild or for gaining the Fortitude save bonus noted in the table above, you make a Survival check once every 24 hours. The result of that check applies until the next check is made. To avoid getting lost or avoid natural hazards, you make a Survival check whenever the situation calls for one. Retries to avoid getting lost in a specific situation or to avoid a specific natural hazard are not allowed.

If you fail by 5 or more, you go underwater.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] If you are underwater, either because you failed a Swim check or because you are swimming underwater intentionally, you must hold your breath. You can hold your breath for a number of rounds equal to your Constitution score, but only if you do nothing other than take move actions or free actions. If you take a standard action or a full-round action (such as making an attack), the remainder of the duration for which you can hold your breath is reduced by 1 round. (Effectively, a character in combat can hold his or her breath only half as long as normal.)

You can activate such an item as if you were using the activation word, thought, or action, even when you’re not and even if you don’t know it. You do have to perform some equivalent activity in order to make the check. That is, you must speak, wave the item around, or otherwise attempt to get it to activate. You get a special +2 bonus on your Use Magic Device check if you’ve activated the item in question at least once before. If you fail by 9 or less, you can’t activate the device. If you fail by 10 or more, you suffer a mishap. A mishap means that magical energy gets released but it doesn’t do what you wanted it to do. The default mishaps are that the item affects the wrong target or that uncontrolled magical energy is released, dealing 2d6 points of damage to you. This mishap is in addition to the chance for a mishap that you normally run when you cast a spell from a scroll that you could not otherwise cast yourself.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Decipher a Written Spell: [/I]This usage works just like deciphering a written spell with the Spellcraft skill, except that the DC is 5 points higher. Deciphering a written spell requires 1 minute of concentration.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Emulate an Ability Score: [/I]To cast a spell from a scroll, you need a high score in the appropriate ability (Intelligence for wizard spells, Wisdom for divine spells, or Charisma for sorcerer or bard spells). Your effective ability score (appropriate to the class you’re emulating when you try to cast the spell from the scroll) is your Use Magic Device check result minus 15. If you already have a high enough score in the appropriate ability, you don’t need to make this check.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Emulate an Alignment: [/I]Some magic items have positive or negative effects based on the user’s alignment. Use Magic Device lets you use these items as if you were of an alignment of your choice. You can emulate only one alignment at a time.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Emulate a Class Feature: [/I]Sometimes you need to use a class feature to activate a magic item. In this case, your effective level in the emulated class equals your Use Magic Device check result minus 20. This skill does not let you actually use the class feature of another class. It just lets you activate items as if you had that class feature. If the class whose feature you are emulating has an alignment requirement, you must meet it, either honestly or by emulating an appropriate alignment with a separate Use Magic Device check (see above).[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Emulate a Race: [/I]Some magic items work only for members of certain races, or work better for members of those races. You can use such an item as if you were a race of your choice. You can emulate only one race at a time.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Use a Scroll: [/I]If you are casting a spell from a scroll, you have to decipher it first. Normally, to cast a spell from a scroll, you must have the scroll’s spell on your class spell list. Use Magic Device allows you to use a scroll as if you had a particular spell on your class spell list. The DC is equal to 20 + the caster level of the spell you are trying to cast from the scroll. In addition, casting a spell from a scroll requires a minimum score (10 + spell level) in the appropriate ability. If you don’t have a sufficient score in that ability, you must emulate the ability score with a separate Use Magic Device check (see above).[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] This use of the skill also applies to other spell completion magic items.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Use a Wand: [/I]Normally, to use a wand, you must have the wand’s spell on your class spell list. This use of the skill allows you to use a wand as if you had a particular spell on your class spell list. This use of the skill also applies to other spell trigger magic items, such as staffs.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B] Action:[/B] None. The Use Magic Device check is made as part of the action (if any) required to activate the magic item.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B] Try Again:[/B] Yes, but if you ever roll a natural 1 while attempting to activate an item and you fail, then you can’t try to activate that item again for 24 hours.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B] Special:[/B] You cannot take 10 with this skill.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] You can’t aid another on Use Magic Device checks. Only the user of the item may attempt such a check.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] If you have the Magical Aptitude feat, you get a +2 bonus on Use Magic Device checks.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B] Synergy:[/B] If you have 5 or more ranks in Spellcraft, you get a +2 bonus on Use Magic Device checks related to scrolls.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] If you have 5 or more ranks in Decipher Script, you get a +2 bonus on Use Magic Device checks related to scrolls.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] If you have 5 or more ranks in Use Magic Device, you get a +2 bonus to Spellcraft checks made to decipher spells on scrolls.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][h=1]Use Rope (DEX)[/h][/COLOR][COLOR=#000000][B]Check:[/B] Most tasks with a rope are relatively simple.

Failure by 4 or less indicates that the hook fails to catch and falls, allowing you to try again. Failure by 5 or more indicates that the grappling hook initially holds, but comes loose after 1d4 rounds of supporting weight. This check is made secretly, so that you don’t know whether the rope will hold your weight.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][I] Bind a Character: [/I]When you bind another character with a rope, any Escape Artist check that the bound character makes is opposed by your Use Rope check.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000] You get a +10 bonus on this check because it is easier to bind someone than to escape from bonds. You don’t even make your Use Rope check until someone tries to escape.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B] Action:[/B] Varies. Throwing a grappling hook is a standard action that provokes an attack of opportunity. Tying a knot, tying a special knot, or tying a rope around yourself one-handed is a full-round action that provokes an attack of opportunity. Splicing two ropes together takes 5 minutes. Binding a character takes 1 minute.[/COLOR] [COLOR=#000000][B] Special:[/B] A silk rope gives you a +2 circumstance bonus on Use Rope checks.
