Hey everybody,

I am gearing up for my first game of Call of Cthulu and I decided to play a dilettante. I was looking to play a character with similar abilities (as much as possible) to Lara Croft.

I am having the most trouble picking my 3 "other skills" and 4 hobbies, as well as, assigning values to what should be the most "trained". Currently the character looks like this:

Str - 40
Con - 50
Siz - 50
Dex - 60
App - 70
Edu - 50
Int - 60
Pow - 80
Lck - 55

Skills are:
Art (Drawing), Charm, Latin, Handgun, Ride

I was trying to think of what would make sense for the 3 other skills. My father was an Archaeologist so I was thinking it would make sense for Appraise or Archaeology to be either Hobby or skill. I was thinking of maybe taking Fast talk as well to give myself another way to get by people.

Dodge, Sleight of Hand, Occult, Listen were other skills I was looking at.

The other players are playing a PI, a Police detective (Pinkerton), a Professor of Archaeology, and a Knocker Upper (Friendly Strong man).

Thanks!
