Lead The Way

Sometimes it’s necessary for the group to follow the tactics of just one member, such as trying to sneak a Big Bruiser into a secure compound with the Thief. With this schtick, skills like Intrusion, Deceit, and Police can be used with one other character in attendance without penalty, even if that tag-along character’s presence should complicate the attempt. (“Ignore him, he’s just my sister’s kid. Now, you were saying about the Black Tongue’s secret lair…”) Each additional schtick the group has in this ability allows another character to tag-along on a single skill check. The character who Leads The Way makes his skill check as usual and both characters use the resulting AV. If the check fails, it is always the fault of the tag-along character.
