Intimidate (Skill) (Midnight)

Intimidate is a dangerous skill to use in occupied lands—failure might get a character reported to the authorities, imprisoned, or worse.

Intimidate checks against orcs or legates in occupied territory suffer a –2 penalty since the target feels quite comfortable in the knowledge that he is in a dominant position. Likewise, Intimidate checks made against low-level orcs or collaborators trapped away from their usual comfort zone gain a +2 circumstance bonus. This bonus does not apply to legates or high-ranking members of the occupying army.
