Skill Checks
There’s usually more than one way to skin a cat, but are there enough reasons to justify it at all? Are you planning on eating this animal? Well if that’s the case, I sure hope you planned that out, because I’ve tried to bathe one before and well, ouch!
What would you need to skin a cat anyway? How would you go about it. Well depending on how you chose to do it, you might call on different skill sets to accomplish the goal. Often times in role playing games, there is more than one solution to a problem, several in fact, probably even ones your DM didn’t think about before you or your troupe went with it.
So if you plan to skin a cat or do something as dumb, well a little forethought never hurt anyone too badly. While you are thinking it up, your GM is probably going to ask for an ability check. If you’re unfamiliar stop by the ArcaneEye, and read their well written article on Skill Checks.
