Bluff

The Bluff skill is used to make the implausible or untrue seem to be plausible and true. Everything from acting, conning and fast talking to misdirection and lies are encapsulated in this skill. Bluffs may also be used to deliver an inferred meaning without directly stating it. Those looking to deceive people or become great actors/storytellers are recommended to take up this skill.

A bluff check is performed against a sense motive check. The higher score succeeds, while the lower fails. When used in cooperation, the Sense Motive check for the intended target must be lower than the Bluff check, whereas unwanted listeners must roll above the Bluff check to also understand the inferred meaning.
