[X] Survey: Looting was such an ugly word. What you did was map out an area in order to retrieve artefacts of value in order to facilitate their sale to enterprising entrepreneurs.

Yeah, we really gotta work off this little debt and fast and not having the Sisterhood so pissed at us. Anything extra would be nice.

[X] Appraisal: The ability to gain a keen insight into how much you retrieved was actually worth. You had been swindled too many times to count to not learn better.

[X] Forgery: The art of making fake art. Typically, you used this to construct false artefacts in order to pad your coffers, mixing a few in among real artefacts in order to reduce the likelyhood you'd get caught.

Forgery is so broadly applicable, how could we not choose it?

Also, it would be funny if the Sisterhood mistook one of the genuine artifacts for a forgery and didn't spot our real forgery.

We're in deep trouble because of forgery.

They figured out the talisman was a fake and we're in danger and our fingers are in danger and gotta pay back the debt.

We need the Real McCoy, not another fake that get us in even more trouble than we're already are.

We think we're in trouble because of forgery. If we pick Forgery as our heroic skill, it's more likely that we're in trouble because of something else, since our forgery wouldn't have been shoddy in the first place.

[X] Forgery:

I really like the narrative implications of this regarding the whole Sisterhood Debt Plot, plus when things get Warpy, the difference between a Forgery and the Real Deal can be a very difficult thing to figure out indeed.

The forgery wasn't shoddy in the first place (like, you have master forgery at base, it was objectively a very good forgery): quality of skill wasn't the problem here, your character just ran into a deeply unlikely proverbial ten carat run of bad luck.

If we're gonna earn 10k credits, we're gonna need to pick up something pricey.
