Trailing Signs
Trail Signs(Warrior, 1)
Ability: Intelligence
Modifier: ‐1
A PC with this proficiency can read symbolic messages indicated by an arrangement of stones or other physical objects. The PC must designate the method of leaving messages preferred by his family, tribe, or culture. Typical methods include piling rocks, stacking branches, or building snow sculptures. When the PC encounters such a message, he understands the meaning if he makes a successful proficiency check (e.g., ‘a dragon dwells in these woods’ or ‘eat the green berries for restored health’). The message is meaningless to PC’s without the trail signs proficiency. A PC who attempts to read another trail sign other than the one he is proficient in, can try to interpret the sign at half‐normal chances of success. This proficiency can also be used to identify the cultural group or tribe that has left a specific trail sign.
