>>Examples<<Stat Checks
If a player wants to for instance convince a snooty pony to let the party sleep in his house for a night, would it be something like this:
A Unicorn is doing the talking, and has a CHA of 15
The Snooty Pony does not like the idea, and as such any persuation takes a penalty of -2
The Snooty Pony, being snooty, has a CHA of 17, addin another -2 modifier
Since this is a Minor Request, the roll needed to succeed is 20. It is rolled agaist CHA, and the unicorn has 15, so he needs to roll 5 or more
However there is a total modifier of -4, so the roll needed is 9 or more.
>What stat to check against?Moving heavy things, bucking things, etc - STR
