Description:
A character with this skill is adept at making a good impression on underworld contacts in the less savory neighborhoods of towns and cities, allowing him to better use other skills. Those who the character contacts are not necessarily moved to trust that PC using this skill, but they may decide the character is worth talking to for one reason or another. A Street Sense skill bid can be attempted once whenever the character is talking to a contact. Successful bid indicates that the contact becomes favorably inclined toward the character and will reveal additional information to him, possibly unrelated to the character’s inquiries, at the marshal’s discretion. Success also indicates that the contact will act positively towards the character in future situations, unless circumstances dictate otherwise. Possession of this skill also decreases the skill cost of Info Gathering by 25%.
