Skill Question?

Unread post by drakinn »

What is "Blend" the skill is listed in the RUE under the secondary skill section as not being able to be selected. It is supposed to be a wilderness skill?

Their wariness was as that of one crossing a river in winter;
Their caution was as that of one in fear of all around;
Their gravity was as that of a guest
Their relaxation was as that of ice at the melting point

If I remember correctly, Blend is an advanced wilderness skill that appears in the Australia World Book.

Correct.

It is also on p. 82 of the RGMG.
It's like a Prowl skill specifically for the Bush or other wilderness areas.

The RGMG mentions that Native Americans can, with GM discretion, be assumed to start with it.
Which indicates that (with GM discretion), it can be used anyplace in the wilderness.

I would agree with statment if it was phrased 'Traditional Native Americans' (ie: non-tech)....
