For example, Erik (INT 9, Carouse 2) is trying to find information about a mysterious ship that landed at
the starport. He goes to a bar frequented by travellers and spacers, hoping to pick up on a rumour. This is a Carouse check, and the referee says that it is a Difficult (10+) task. Erik has two levels of Carouse, which gives him DM+2, an INT of 9 (for an additional DM+1), giving him a final of DM+3. He rolls 2D+3 and tries to get 10 or more.
