Complimentary Skill Rolls for Influence

[tbone]

Sorry to be unclear. I mean a cumulative -1 on each additional complementary roll, not the master roll.

So if you're uncertain about that Survival roll to forage for food and you want to boost your chances, and you think you might want to use your Tracking-16, Stealth-14, Bow-14, Camouflage-11, etc., you could roll against as many as you like - but at -1 for the second, -2 for the third, etc.

What order to roll them in becomes an interesting question. For example, you might want to roll that Camouflage-11 first, since it can barely absorb a penalty. Maybe then Stealth and Bow, at -1 and -2, respectively; then Tracking, as it can probably absorb a -3 penalty...

And you could keep going from there with more complementary rolls, but penalties of -4 and upward likely make it a bad idea. Maybe. It depends on the level of the skills, and how badly you need yet another bonus to the Survival roll, no matter how unlikely...
