Urban Survival

From ElanVital

Basic Facts

Skill Definition: Urban Survival is the ability to get along in and prosper within a city, despite one's means.

Common Uses: Urban Survival can help one know where a good place to forage for food is, where a nice discreet hiding spot may be, or help spot the people best avoided.

Rule Information

Rule Notes: Urban Survival also allows people to know who the 'big fish' are, be they of the legitimate or illegitimate variety, through the simple methods of observation and word on the street. It does not confer prosecutable knowledge (i.e. 'that guy fenced an expensive gold watch last week') but does allow a character to have a pretty good idea who it's not a wise prospect to mess with.
Common Modifiers: Urban Survival is typically rolled at 0.
Counterskills: None relevant.
