I can't find a reference for this skill use; the closest I came is the DC to tell if a creature paralyzed by a lich is alive or not (Heal DC 15).It came up as a minor point in my game when some PCs knocked a character unconscious and other NPCs thought she was dead. It all worked out fine (I just guessed the DC at 10 and eventually an NPC managed to make that) but I justed wanted to know if anyone was aware of an official rule on how to tell if someone is unconscious or dead.</blockquote>
