Episode 713: I For One Welcome Our Giant Shiny Gold Robot Overlords

<<FIRST     <PREVIOUS     NEXT>     LATEST>>

The skills a character can have would normally be restricted to a subset of the entire skill list in the game rules, based on what skills would be reasonable for the character to actually know.

This is why it's vitally important for your private detective to be an active member of the Society for Creative Anachronism, or for your wandering minstrel to have frequent hyper-realistic visions of men made of metal and people travelling to the stars in giant galleons.
