Typically used with: Agility.
Sleight of Hand is a skill practiced by many con-men and thieves er — treasure hunters. This skill can be used to draw a small weapon unnoticed, snatch an item away from a table, pick someone's pocket, and other movements that require the hand to be faster than the eye.
Difficulty
Sleight of Hand checks shouldn't have a set DL; however, circumstantial bonuses or penalties apply.
| Example | DL |
|---|---|
| Object is very small or otherwise easy to conceal (a marble, a dagger, four aces) | −5 |
| Object is large, heavy, or otherwise very noticeable (a Dachshund, an axe, a sack of potatoes) | +5 |
| Object is being intently watched | +5 |
Opposed Rolls
Sleight of Hand checks are opposed by a Spot check from a viewer.
