Acting, Drama
For convincing others of the sincerity of
your actions, this skill is not to be confused with
Trickery or Disguise. If your character needs to
convincingly portray an emotional state, temperament
characteristics, imitate another’s mannerisms,
or similarly act inconsistently with their true nature
or state, then a skill check must be made.
Check: Roll 3d10 and apply the average of
the modifiers for the abilities of Intelligence and
Charisma. A successful check convinces 1 character
for 1 hour. While only the Aedile will know the
TH for the given situation, following are some factors
and guidelines:
