Khorien Posted April 15, 2021 Share Posted April 15, 2021 Sorry to bother you with a such newby question but I'm not sure how to solve the lack of balance skill. Let me make a stupid example: a guard is running to catch a thief. Both arrive on the shores of a totally iced lake. The thief has Acrobatic skill and can roll a try to go on running, but what about the guard without the skill? Some of you suggested in an old topic to find a standard skill and use it with a penality. In that case what would you use for the guard? Athletic? Evade? Would you create a new standard skill like Balance (DES x2)? (sorry for my bad english) 😅 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Khorien Posted April 15, 2021 Author Share Posted April 15, 2021 Thank you for your prompt answer! I was unsure because Athletic is STR+DEX and I was looking for something with DEX x2 (who knows why it was supposed to be more suitable in my mind 😅). Thanks again!!!

clarence Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Yes, I would also use Athletics for that. Quote FrostByte Books M–SPACE d100 Roleplaying in the Far Future Odd Soot Science Fiction Mystery in the 1920s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
