Ok, and about the Performance checks during your acts:<br/><br/>Both the technical and artistic rolls use the Performance skill. This makes use of the "Skills with Different Abilities" rule in the PHB. So you don't have to choose a particular Str, Dex, or Con skill for the technical roll - you can use Performance with a physical ability of your choice.<br/><br/>Also, most bonuses, feats, and class features can't be applied to these special Performance checks, including Portent. The reason for that is I didn't want particular character builds to have an advantage when doing their acts. In a typical game, it's okay to have builds that are better than others at skill checks. Here, where<em>everyone</em>will be performing on stage, I wanted everyone to be equally good (or bad).<br/><br/>And also, please please don't stress out over the checks. You all have had the benefit of an artifact that has given you virtuoso-level skills. The difference between a natural 1 and a natural 20 is an off day versus a good day; not an absolute disaster versus a once in a lifetime performance. The dice are mostly for flavor and to add some randomness to the story instead of me deciding everything.
