Forensics

This skill allows the character to notice important things about a crime scene.  With this skill, the character can determine the mode of death of a corpse, as well as detecting hair and blood around the crime scene. 

1.      Probably doubles as the town Undertaker.

2.      The character is competent enough for a small town with few murders.

3.      Can handle work in a violent city.

4.      Could give Holmes a run for his money.

Critical Success: Flawlessly interprets evidence and is able to identify the exact cause of death. If the cause is murder, the character can identify the killer.

Critical Fumble: Various results possible: if the nature of the crime was obvious, the character will haul in the wrong person and charge him with committing the crime. However, the character will have evidence that SEEMS at first glance to point to that person’s guilt, although a more detailed investigation would show that the evidence is obviously faulty. If the nature of the crime is not obvious, the character will be lead astray and end up making faulty assumptions.
