DC 15 Checks

Post by Thane »

I've got a question about the skill system.

Page 66 states: "DC 15. It takes someone special to accomplish these tasks. Examples: leaping the gap between two city roofs, hurling a log at an oncoming bear, or grabbing a pouch lashed to the saddle of a galloping stallion."

I assume the above examples could be attempted under the ruling :"if the skill is something that any adult could have a reasonable chance of attempting, then any character canmake a trained skill check". And that's a 1d20 roll yes?

If not, they'd be rolling a 1d10 and would not be able to attempt those actions.

Yup, your average healthy adult can jump, throw and grab, so d20 it is.
...unless the judge rules otherwise.

And who among us hasn't done that?
