User manual GAMES MICROSOFT XBOX TRIVIAL PURSUIT UNHINGED

[. . . ] Fearing that they will be overrun, Targos has sent out a call for all able-bodied adventurers, soldiers, and mercenaries to sail north to stand with the town's defenders against the encroaching horde. You and your companions have answered the call. Icewind Dale II uses a highly modified version of the BioWare Infinity EngineTM, originally developed by BioWare Corp. for Baldur's GateTM and Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of AmnTM. [. . . ] Neutral Evil: Neutral evil characters are primarily concerned with themselves and their own advancement. If there is a quick and easy way to gain a profit, whether it be legal, questionable, or obviously illegal, they take advantage of it. Although neutral evil characters do not have the every-man-for-himself attitude of chaotic evil characters, they have no qualms about betraying their friends and companions for personal gain. Chaotic Evil: Chaotic evil characters are motivated by personal pleasure. The strong have the right to take what they want, and the weak are there to be exploited. SKILLS Your skills represent a variety of abilities, and you get better at them as you go up in level. If you are new or a returning player, you may wish to read this section fully. The addition of the Third Edition Dungeon & Dragons skill system is one of the major changes to Icewind Dale II. 62 Skill Success The use of a skill is a success if: 1d20 + skill modifier (Skill modifier = skill rank + ability modifier + miscellaneous modifiers) This d20 roll (the roll of a twenty sided die) is made just like an attack roll or a saving throw. You're either trying to score a certain Difficulty Class (DC) or higher, or you're trying to beat another character's check. For instance, to open a heavily locked chest, a rogue needs to beat the difficulty of the lock on the chest (the lock's DC). Just for clarity, the Difficulty Class (DC) is the target number that must be met or beat for a saving throw or skill check to be considered a success. Many skills can be used even if the character has no ranks in the skill; this is known as making an untrained skill check. Diplomacy (Cha) Use this skill to persuade the enemy to let you see the head guy, to negotiate peace between two feuding parties, or convince the evil goblins that captured you that they should ransom you back to your friends instead of killing you. Diplomacy includes etiquette, social grace, tact, subtlety, and a way with words. A skilled character knows the formal and informal rules of conduct, social expectations, proper forms of address, and so on. Disable Device (Int; Trained Only) Use this skill to disarm a trap, jam a lock, or rig a wagon wheel to fall off. You can examine a fairly simple or fairly small mechanical device and disable it. Each trap will have a Difficulty Class (DC) that your rogue will need to overcome. The DCs of traps steadily increase as you make your way through Icewind Dale II. Hide (Dex; Armor Check Penalty) Use this skill to sink back into the shadows and proceed unseen, to approach a wizard's tower under cover of brush, or to tail someone through a busy street without being noticed. Intimidate (Cha) Use this skill to get a bully to back down or to make a character give you the information you want. Intimidation includes verbal threats and body language. 64 64 Knowledge (Arcana) (Int; Trained Only) Knowledge (Arcana) represents the study of arcane knowledge, such as ancient mysteries, magic traditions, arcane symbols and cryptic phrases. Knowledge (Arcana) also gives the skilled the ability to identify many types of magical artifacts such as wands, scrolls, rods, and other arcane magic items.
