I've com up with a new skill set for a d20 game i'm homebrewing, but as it's based on both d20 DnD games, it'd be good for 3.5 too.
The new skills
Acrobatics (Dex) - Flipping, Tumbling all that acrobatic stuff
Animal Ken (Wis) - Various animal care related things. Use Dex for riding
Arcana (Int) - Knowledge of all things magical
Athletics (Str) - Running, jumping and other athletic pursuits
Deception (Cha) - Used for lying and forging handwriting
Diplomacy (Cha) - Used for currying the favour of other people
Disable Device (Dex) - Used to disable or bypass various mechanical devices, including locks
Dungeoneering (Wis) - Knowledge of the dank caverns and tombs adventurers frequent
Heal (Wis) - Knowledge of the healing arts. Use Int for chirurgeury
History (Int) - Knowledge of time past
Insight (Wis) - The ability to discern deceptions and sense the unreal
Intimidate (Cha, Str) - Used to scare the bejeesus out of folk
Linguistics (Int) - Used to decipher ancient scripts and cryptic codes
Nature (Wis) - Knowledge of the great outdoors and how to survive there
Perception (Wis) - The ability to notice things
Religion (Wis) - Knowledge of all things ecclesiastic
Socialise (Cha) - Used to gather information and spread gossip
Stealth (Dex) - Used to skulk around like some kinda ninja
Streetwise (Wis) - Knowledge of the urban jungle
Trade (Various) - Used to work a job, and to create or maintain items related to that trade
I'm using this with skill points, and (so painfully stolen from WoD) skill specialities. What you think?
