{As for how Linda and some of the others in the group may be able to help out in this particular challenge, an idea I had was that they could perhaps use their knowledge skills. For instance Linda with her resurrection argument could roll a knowledge arcana check, to simulate the fact that she was knowledgeable on the subject matter and could thus present a more compelling argument to the woman.  A similar approach could be taken with knowledge religion of course, so if anyone is versed in that field perhaps they could use that whilst speaking to her about the afterlife or some similar subject to calm her. An unorthodox use of the knowledge skill to be sure, but in this situation I think it would allow the group to bring their own sets of skills to the table to participate in calming the woman.}<br/><br/><br/>{alternatively those who do not possess social skill ranks could simply take actions to "assist" those that do, and grant a bonus on their rolls, using the rules provided :::::You can help someone achieve success on a skill check by making the same kind of skill check in a cooperative effort. If you roll a 10 or higher on your check, the character you're helping gets a +2 bonus on his or her check. (You can't take 10 on a skill check to aid another.) In many cases, a character's help won't be beneficial, or only a limited number of characters can help at once. }<br/><br/>{Of course there is also the option to simply let it go and resort to combat to see us through this situation.]
