Message no. 1 Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone has thought
about collating a list of knowledge skills
that people have been using/creating.

With the brilliant latitude that you get
with knowledge skills there is some
real room to move. What are the knowledge
skills that you are using on your characters
now?

So do you go for the practical or the quirky?

A thread on this topic ran for a short while in September last year. I don't
know if anyone compiled a list from the posts.

Both. That seems to us to reflect the real world skills people have. Some are
very useful, some aren't. Also, our characters have mostly low level knowledge
skills (ratings 1 or 2) and only a few at higher level. We feel this sort of
reflects reality. Some examples are Physiology (Elves), Jewish History, Seatle
Geography, (Meta)human Pleasure Centres, Tobacconist, Academia Politics,
Legendary Arcana, etc.

A mix of both, really... using my two current characters as an example;
Haiiro, in the weekend game, is a Japanese bounty-hunter mage. She's got
skills like Shadowrunner Hangouts, Cheap Boltholes, Manga Art, Yakuza
Operations, Pharmacology, Architecture etc.
Sable, in the weekday game, is a Russian gun-girl. Her knowledge skills
include a plethora of languages (the game is based in Europe, so she's got
Russian, English, German and Chinese), Distilling, Disguise, Vory V.
Zakone, Architecture (again; it's a favorite), Political Science, Russian
History and Sociology.
Note that there aren't many skills there for either character yet, since
they've earned a total of 6 karma each...

Let's see. my current group has/had, scattered among the characters, things
like Area Knowledges (one character, an ex-Cop, specialised it in Donut
Stores, LoL), military history, and so on. Fairly practical, saving the
occasional minor quirk (the Area Knowledge, for instance: still useful for
OTHER "where is it" problems).

Then we have/had the loony ones. Kn: 20th Century Western Movies; Kn: History
of Science Fiction; Kn: Conspiracy Theory (specialised in Sixth World; the man
was a LOON), and so on.

A few that i picked up for my character are ones that i think are
rather overlooked, as far as decker type characters are concerned:
Street and Corporate Finance, Business Practices, Banking,
Investments, and so forth. These sort of skills give a character a lot
more options in gathering data, especially when it comes to tracking
down money (or making sure it stays lost!) and figuring out exactly
what That Evil Corporation is doing this week.

Yes. Listrproc did :) If you are feeling brave, you can go archive
diving for the posts (Which is not difficult ... just a bit tedious.)

Well, on of our players builds characters that usualy provide the comic
relife. One of the most recent was a Dwarf with multiple personalities,
with relevent skilles for each.

Normal--Air ducts (he NEVER went in through the door, always through the
airducts)

Viking--Norse language

Bruce Willis--Shoe build repair, because somehow in all his movies he
ends up with no shoes

Super(meta)Man--phone booth locations (for those quick outfir changes)

Nam vet--Charlie fearin' (don't ask me why, ask Charles
<redmen@*****.com>, he's on the list)

some goodies. I'll explain the character a bit to give context..

BruceWillis/Nam-Vet combination character:
shoe B/R (since Bruce always loses his shoes)
Charlie Fearin'

Frightening Dwarf Hobo Goat-Shaman living in Lodge in city dump:
secret recipie of hobo chili
crud-flingin'
cheap-n-nasty hobo porn mags

Post-Apocalyptic Drifter (catch, apocolypse only happened 2 hours ago,
Cermack Blast that is)
drifting
apocalypse sidewalk-preaching
strange weather patterns
Scientology

endearing Warcraft-ian Ork samauri " Dabu! "
Orkish Glee (as the GM, never quite sure what the skill was. I let him
use it for charisma situations sometimes..)
flailing (we ruled once that if he ever fell in the water, this could be
used to stay afloat)

I believe Charlie = Vietcong. So a Vietnam vet would not like Charlie.

What would you use such a skill for? I would have thought
"Charlie Avoiding", "Charlie Tactics", etc. would have been
skills and the fearing part would have more been a character
trait.

Um has anyone else here noted that the Vietnam
War occurred nearly a century ago according to the
current timeline?

What possible reason could the character have given
the GM to allow that one through? Charlie Fearin....
Now Tir Fearin' or Aztlan Fearin' I'd probably understand
but I severly doubt that anyone would even remember
what a "Charlie" is and what it's relevance is to modern
fractured society.

sorry for the confusion, all. "Charlie Fearin'" was just a joke, as are
just about all knowledge skills in my campaign. but just to coax it make a
bit more sense, the aforementioned character was a Desert Wars vet, and
"Charlie" is just a colorful label he applied to anything he had to go up
against in the Desert Wars.

Architecture is one of our favorites as well. How do you use this skill?
Besides its story line and roleplaying aspects, we use it as an information
gathering/analysis roll for building strengths, weaknesses, changes and likely
layout. Additionally, we allow it as a complementary skill, when relevant, to
Tactics/Military Science during mission planning, to some perception tests, and
to demolition tests.

It should (perhaps) also help when "chatting up" the Building/Records clerks
trying to get plans of wherever your next run or five is supposed to be at.
Complimentary skill to Etiquette, perhaps? :-)

Regardless, if nothing else, it should be useful for knowing what
"nonstandard" means of access should/would/might/etc exist on a given
building.

Possible specialisations might include: History; by region; Security (as in,
how to make a building secure, and how to spot gaps/weak points in building
security).

In fact, I can see companies like Lone Star, Knight Errant, etc, keeping a few
eggheads with high knowledge skills in Architecture (SP: Security) on staff in
each city, as consultants to the initial workup for any new client's site(s).

Acronyms. Apart from that I shall not comment.
Besides I used to live in Luton. I had a poper Lu-onian (that is how someone in
Luton would say it. If you forced them to say it in the first place :) - They
prefer Lu-oner) accent when I was there, but now I've moved to Letchworth (and
admittedly lived here most of my life) I've lost it completely. Hope that made
some sence somewhere.
