I'm trying to figure out Lem's skills in Edge of Anarchy, as it seems he has too many. He should have 28 ranks, but I count 36. He also seems to have 6 ranks in Diplomacy, but shouldn't he be limited to 4?
Am I missing something, or are his skills just wrong?
Here's the breakdown as I see it:
Str 8 (-1), Dex 16 (+3), Con 13 (+1), Int 12 (+1), Wis 8 (-1), Cha 15 (+2)
Bardic Knowledge (+2): Int +1, Level 1 (no ranks needed here)
Bluff (+6): Cha +2, 4 Ranks
Climb (+1): Str -1, Halfling Bonus +2
Concentration (+5): Con +1, 4 Ranks
Diplomacy (+8): Cha +2, 6 Ranks
Hide (+7): Dex +3, 4 Ranks
Jump (+1): Str -1, Halfling Bonus +2
Listen (+3): Wis -1, Halfling Bonus +2, 2 Ranks
Move Silently (+5): Dex +3, Halfling Bonus +2
Perform (comedy) (+6): Cha +2, 4 Ranks
Perform (wind instruments) (+6): Cha +2, 4 Ranks
Tumble (+7): Dex +3, 4 Ranks
Use Magic Device (+6): Cha +2, 4 Ranks
Total Ranks: 36
With Lem's +1 from Int, he should only have 28 Skill Points
(6+1) x 4 = 7 x 4 = 28

The Hide bonus is +3 from Dex, and +4 from being size small, so that's 4 ranks explained. As a guess, I'd say that Dip is two too high because someone gave him the Bluff synergy bonus early, since he can't have 6 ranks in it. So that explains 6 extra ranks he shouldn't have. Probably the other two are in Listen, if I had to guess.

Ah! I had forgotten about the Hide bonus for size. Thank you.
Assuming the Diplomacy is an error, I just need to find the source of those last two points. I'll dig around for possible Listen bonuses I missed.
Thanks again.
