Law (Society)
Skills: Society
Actions: where M* = M*(this), know(free-action) via substitution
Substitution this for Society chk(C) +M(this).
Aspect-Actions: bypass(main-action) chk(CC-S) = d20 + R(this) +M(Deceive|Persuade) on (pass or fail) set(PC) = 8 + R(this) + M(Stealth) v opp Perception, search(min+) +R(this) +M(Investigate), deceive(min+) +R(this) +M(Deceive), persuade(min+) +R(this) +M(Persuade)
You can use a Law check to either understand, or deceive, persuade or otherwise modify a legal decision or process. A knowledge of Law can help to to navigate the myriad complexities of legal practice in various domains of commercial, property, criminal and civil procedures, precedents and statutes.
Know (free-action)
You can substitute this technique for Society to recall facts on standard procedures, technicalities and the like.
sub(this for Society) chk(C,Law) = d20 + M(Law)
Bypass (main-action)
A series of actions (targeting people and procedures) that penetrates a legal system in order to carry out other actions, such as the inspection or modification of records, decisions, practices, chains-of-evidence etc. The legal system may be an office with procedures, a computer system with records and processes, criminal records, commercial contracts or some other arrangement.
bypass(main-action) chk(CC-S) = d20 + R(this) +M(Deceive|Persuade) on (pass or fail) set(PC) = 8 + R(this) + M(Stealth) v opp Perception
Success means that you have, through some way or another, convinced the relevant persons to grant you access to the legal system or penetrated legal records in order to change them.
In the second part of the above experession (beginning with 'on pass or fail'), you set a Perception Challenge (PC) with the Law technique aspected by your Stealth. The PC you set becomes the challenge any other legal expert, lawyer, para-legal or law officer that is looking at the change or data trail, must overcome in order to notice your bypass.
Therefore you make your Bypass attempt with:
bypass(main-action) chk(CC-S) = d20 + R(Law) +M(Deceive|Persuade)
At the same time you are setting a Perception Challenge for any other legal expert with:
on (pass or fail) set(PC) = 8 + R(Law) + M(Stealth) v opp Perception
This PC remains even after you have made your change and left, because its the challenge set for any other legal expert to notice that a change has been done and its out of the ordinary.
