Gaming: A character with this proficiency is familiar with all manner of gambling
games. A successful proficiency check means the character will win a given game
being played with NPCs—although cumulative negative modifiers should be assigned
for each NPC with the gaming proficiency. Subtract 1 for each proficient NPC,
with –2 for those with higher than basic gaming expertise.
The character might try to cheat, which confers a +3 to the gaming proficiency
score and requires a check. If the proficiency check rolled is a 20, the
character gets caught cheating, even if no NPCs have the gaming proficiency. Add one
to this spread for each NPC with gaming proficiency—i.e., if two others have
this skill, the cheater will be caught on a roll of 18–20.
