a question about the social bar
« on: April 15, 2010, 11:06:48 PM »
so would that be  used for social interactions, like being in an intense debate with a fey queen type of thing?, or being tried for breaking one of the laws?
and another question, what would be a better skill to have, presence or rapport?

Yes. That's precisely correct.

and another question, what would be a better skill to have, presence or rapport?

That's like asking "Which is better to have, Endurance or Athletics?" It depends on your character and what you want them to be good at. Presence is Leadership and raw force of personality, while Rapport is charm, likeability and persuasiveness. Which sounds better for the character in question?

if you want to be friendly, use rapport.  If you want to awe them use presence.

Yep. Also bear in mind the Athletics/Rapport and Presence/Endurance comparisons, the first two can be used as a defense in their spheres, and the second two determine your Stress Bars.
