[QUOTE="RyvenCedrylle, post: 4862459, member: 66726"] Someone earlier mentioned that Streetwise rolled in Knowledge: Royalty and Nobility. I disagree. [I]Diplomacy[/I] rolled in Knowledge: Royalty and Nobility. In my games, Streetwise and Diplomacy are almost opposite-caste versions of each other. That is: *You strike a deal with the Duke or mayor with Diplomacy. You strike a deal with the barkeep or weaponsmith with Streetwise. *Diplomacy gives you knowledge of formal culture - the arts and etiquette. Streetwise covers slang terminology and local street customs. *Diplomacy covers the written laws. Streetwise covers what's actually enforced, written or not. *You mingle well with the elite and powerful using Diplomacy. You blend in with the common folk with Streetwise. There are also the foraging and almost civil engineering sorts of uses of Streetwise as mentioned previously but even without that they are very different concepts. [/QUOTE]
