About Skills

I know it has the potential for abuse by allowing the absorption of skills, but I decided to keep it because A) It's skills, fairly minor and more importantly B) It's something your DM has to give you. And unlike spells for a spellbook or items which can be bought, the DM literally has to give you a Highlander opponent to find, fight, and kill. With that in mind I determine that it has a nice bit of DM control to keep the thing workable. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eiji-kun (talk • contribs) at

I actually think you could allow highlanders to have skill ranks that exceed the normal level cap. It's pretty unlikely that they're going to take another highlander who has a lot more levels than they do, so the excess is likely to be small. It's also pretty unlikely to matter against the skill bonus item totals that could potentially be floating around. In short, I don't think it's a big deal to let them have a higher than normal skill rank total, though they shouldn't be able to improve upon them until the normal level. Could also allow them to absorb class skill assignments as well. - Tarkisflux ^Talk 06:03, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

+1 LA to never die as long as people don't know how you can be killed? :-3 --Ghostwheel 06:52, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
