Hey all.
I've been wanting to create a Parkour skill, but am having a problem coming up with something that's not too weak and/or O.P. I'm looking for something to primarily use with any of Palladium's settings.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Parkour Skill
This is a perennial thread. I would do a search of the word "Parkour" and read some of the other threads and look at the various takes on the skill.
Some people have made it a separate skill of varying abilities
Some people make it a lifestyle in which you utilize several subskills such as Running, Acrobatics, Climbing and more.
Both are perfectly valid ways to model Parkour.

The rules are not a bludgeon with which to hammer a character into a game. They are a guide to how a group of friends can get together to weave a collective story that entertains everyone involved. We forget that at our peril.

This post has it as a skill, a lifestyle, and an OCC. I'm sure you'll find something useful for your game.

How can we not give you due support and credit?
