Dice pools always seemed to be to be a way to get things that should be
part of performing an action as part of an action. After all, the only
way your Sorcery skill impacts Sorcery is through your Magic Pool, and you
Quickness has nothing to do with a skilled firefight... except through the
Combat Pool.

What I'm wondering, though, is if anyone has any other pools they
regularly use, like social pools or athletic pools described in the
Companion, and what they consist of.
