Title: Skills and Specializations
Post by: blackheart on March 21, 2010, 03:16:29 PM

What, if any, rules are there for detailed skill use?

Such as speaking Latin or Spanish? (Scholarship?)
Woodcarving to replace lost or damaged wizard staves or wands? (Crafts?)
I can do great things with a motorcycle but can't drive stick to save my life? (Drive?)
Etc... etc...

Mundane Stunts.

From playtest stuff we know there's a Linguist stunt for knowing a bunch of extra languages beyond those from Scholarship, and +2 to a skill under specific circumstances is one of the general things Stunts do explicitly. It's pretty much that simple, though appropriate Aspects could help, too.

Take a look at the SotC stunts, the mundane stunts will probably be a bit like them, and they cover most of what you're talking about (one covers Dresden's Listening etc.):
