Specific Uses
Change Appearance
This action allows characters to change or distort their facial features, or even change their weight and height, as part of a disguise.
The roll for this part of a Disguise is done when the disguise is created and cannot be rerolled without starting from scratch. The time it takes to create and don a disguise is determined by the sum of the time taken for each change.
| Change | Roll modifier | Example | Time Taken |
|---|---|---|---|
| Minor facial feature | –– | A fake mustache | 30 seconds |
| Major facial feature | -2 | Change shape of one's nose | 5 minutes |
| Major physical feature | -4 | Change color of one's skin | 10 minutes |
| Minor physical feature | -2 | Increase weight by 10% | 5 minutes |
Any Disguise checks made to change a character's appearance without having suitable materials receives a -5 penalty and takes twice as long.
Impersonate
This action allows characters to impersonate a specific individual. It covers an individual's voice, affectations, and behavior. The check is made whenever the character interacts with a suspicious individual. If a suspicious person fails the disguised character's Change Appearance check by 5 or more, he takes a -5 penalty to his Awareness check for interacting with the disguised character.
The disguised character is subject to the following roll modifiers
| Situation | Check mod |
|---|---|
| Playing a made-up person !! +5 | |
| Impersonating a person of a different culture | -5 |
| Impersonating a person of a different age | -2 |
Blend
This action allows characters to disappear into crowds of people even while being observed. This action cannot be used when there is no crowd to disappear into.
If a character's physical disguise hasn't been compromised and isn't unique to the area (such as a guard's uniform or priest robes), the disguised character gains a +5 bonus to this check.
| Situation | Check Mod |
|---|---|
| Dense crowd | +5 |
| Sparse crowd | -5 |
| Character is in different culture | -2 |
| Character is wearing flashy clothing | -5 |
