Chapter 8: Skills
Haggling
This skill is the practice of bargaining. The
act of haggling assists a negotiator with quantities
in a bargain. The quantities involved are usually either
monetary value, animals, or equipment. Once
initiated by 1 party, both the buyer and seller are
involved in Haggling. When selling equipment that
is not new, and depending on where it is sold, the
equipment usually begins selling at a base of 50%
the original cost of the item listed in Chapter 9: Equipment.
If a base price is unknown, such as when a
character haggles with a sorcerer over the price of
hiring the sorcerer to cast a particular spell, then the
base price must be determined by the seller.
Check: Roll 3d10 and apply the average of
the Skill Modifiers from Rhetorical Charisma and
Intuition. Both the buyer and seller make Haggling
skill checks. The highest Haggling skill check made
between the buyer and seller may consult the table
below to determine the outcome of the transaction:

A hat is protection for a head that is usually
made from cloth or leather. Whenever a hat is
crafted, a Hatmaking skill check must be made.
Check: Roll 3d10 and apply the modifier
from the Common Sense sub-ability. Higher results

the specific hat.
