House Rules
The Idea Roll:
Anytime you come upon a situation where you might have a clue, but as a player you're not really sure what to do, I may award you an idea roll.
It works like this: Add Intelligence + Wisdom and roll a d100. If you roll below the combined total, you'll have an idea. Since you're one character, I'll allow Kalmus and the two NPC's to roll individually - so three chances to get an idea.
