Description

 * Forgers create false papers, legal documents, and correspondence. A character with the Forgery skill can forge artwork if he also has the appropriate Artist skill.
 * For example, a character with the Forgery and Artist (Painter) skills could fake the work of a famous master. Creating a forgery takes two to five times as long as creating the original. For example, a letter jotted hastily in a few minutes might take nearly an hour to forge. The character makes a Forgery Test, the result becoming the Difficulty Number for attempts to detect the forgery. Use of this skill requires materials appropriate to the item being forged.
