Adolescent/Cultural skills table
« on: April 16, 2023, 05:55:20 PM »
I know there used to be a table of adolescent/cultural skill ranks. I have recently acquired a lot of RM2 books from a friend, and for the life of me I can't find it anywhere.

Am I missing it, or am I just hallucinating? Senility sucks.

Maybe it's in RMSS, I dunno.

I'm pretty sure that started with RMSS. RM2 only had hobby ranks, IIRC.

MERP had adolescent skill ranks by culture. I'm pretty sure that directly influenced their use in RMSS.

MERP was the first time I saw it too. I think we made our own houseruled one for RM2 after we saw the MERP system, but I don't recall anything formally in RM2 (I could be wrong).

Conversation on the Discord has led me to believe that the table I'm thinking of might have been in Races & Cultures.

I could have sworn it was in Character Law/Campaign Law though.
