Kitsune Gregarious: What does this do exactly?


Rules Questions


Gregarious (Ex) Even among your own kind, your gift for making friends stands out. Whenever you successfully use Diplomacy to win over an individual, that creature takes a –2 penalty to resist any of your Charisma-based skill checks for the next 24 hours. This racial trait replaces agile.

I cannot for the life of me figure out what this does.

There's no opposed check for charisma based skills, its just a DC

When you charm someone its a charisma check to goad them, not a charisma based skill check.

Bluff, basically.

I think it is more than that but i could be wrong. While they aren't rolling to do so they are resisting your attempt to improve their attitude or make it worse IMO. I always took this as if you succeed to alter their disposition towards you, the check to further change it is reduced by two. Could be wrong though.


Maybe they take a -2 penalty to their saving throws against your Use Magic Device spell-effect DCs.
