New in SW5eA brand-new SW5e trick: you can persuade someone to risk property or secrets in a game of chance. Your social skill and quick wits tilt the odds, while the GM sets the stakes and decides outcomes.✨

You are a skilled gambler who spends most of your time in casinos, bar rooms, and gambling dens. Are your activities legal, or do you break the law? Have you ever cheated in a game, or do you play by the rules? No matter what, your life has been one of excitement, chance, and danger.

Feature: Let's Make It Interesting. You can convince nearly anyone to put up something they aren't normally willing to part with (property or information) in a game of chance. Your GM might rule that they will only agree to a game of their choosing, and they may only agree if they feel the odds are in their favor.

Skill Proficiencies. Choose two from Deception, Insight, Intimidation, and Sleight of Hand

Gambling is your passion, for better or for worse. Most gamblers see their vices as virtues, and overlook things in their pursuit of the rush.
