Hm. Compare: this.

Another way to write it would be: One Trick Wonder: (Acting, only to portray Emotion X)

That's really exactly the kind of thing I worry about with perks -- there's a temptation for them to get overused. Really that should be a Technique of Acting skill, IMO.

I'd make it +2 but limit it to one type of Ht Roll. Frex, Eating Raw Garlic give +2 to rolls to resist Disease and Illness, Sleeping on a hard surface Gives +2 to rolls to recover from injury, etc....

Well, a point of HT normally costs 10 points, and also gives 5 points worth of basic speed and 3 points worth of FP. So 2 points worth of HT that only applies when you use some arbitrary Snake Oil seems reasonable to me.

Calculations that involve HT! generally don't work. It's deliberately under-priced in the interests of PC survival.

But it's a great incentive to research new ones! :)

Circumspect Lawyer- This is like Magical Lawyer for mundane contracts.

Collateral Caution- Undoes up to -2 on rolls modified by an effort to avoid damaging things unecessessarily. It was designed for explosives experts and superheroes

Nice!

I just prefer to say that the perk comes from something along the lines of "Special Exercises: Can Fast Draw a normally forbbiden weapon - eg, Axe.", than to say it's a special rig or something like that... but then again, that's just flavor text. The mechanics are the same.

Great minds think alike! ;)

Perks may never take modifiers.

Dude, Kromm's posted at least one ability that's a modded Perk.
