A complete list of skills that are penalized could be a help for me.
What skills do you think that should be penalized?
Magic skills, Drive, Brawn, Ride, First Aid...?

Its up to you. What is the situation, how is their load encumbering them, are you a brutal GM, did the players buy you pizza, does the skill involve STR or DEX as a characteristic and a physical motion involved? These are all vital aspects to making a valid decision as the GM.

I can't give you a straight list since one or all of the above variables might have an effect on whether it should or shouldn't... :wink:

did the players buy you pizza

Mmmmm, it is a good idea. I will change pizza for a paella valenciana

Out the skills with either DEX or STR as characteristic I would penalize by default:

Acrobatics
Athletics
Boating
Brawn
Dance
Drive
Evade
Ride
Stealth
Swim
Unarmed

Sleight and Mechanisms are already ruled out by default as would be in my opinion:

First Aid
Craft (depends)
Play Instrument (depends)

I would add common magic and sorcery. Would not you?

Not really as Sleight or Sing are not penalized. If in your setting magic requires big gestures then casting could be affected by encumbrance.

It seems logic.
