Secret Signs

(Int) Advanced, Grouped

You’ve been taught how to use clandestine markings onlyintelligible to members of a select group. There are all manner of reasons why someone may want to leave a secret message: vagabonds might indicate which homeowners are likely to offer alms, thieves may want to indicate weaknesses, or likely marks, while scouts may want to warn one another about a dangerous monster’s lair nearby.

This Skill does not usually need to be Tested — you can decipher any appropriate signs you can see if you have this Skill. But if the signs have been disturbed, worn away, or if you are pressed for time, then a Test will likely be required. Most messages are very simple, no more than three words.
