==Rapport==

The Rapport skill is all about making positive connections to people and eliciting positive emotional responses. It’s the skill of being liked and trusted. Performing artists would also use Rapport to communicate using their art.

'''Potential Uses:''' Diplomacy, making friends, getting a person to talk, making an honest deal, haggling, gaining someone’s trust, interviewing a person politely, getting someone to see your side of the story

===Actions===
* '''Overcome:'''Use Rapport to charm or inspire people to do what you want, or to establish a good connection with them. Charm your way past the guard, convince someone to take you into their confidence, or become the man of the hour at the local tavern. For nameless NPCs, this is just an overcome action, but you may have to enter a contest to sufficiently ingratiate yourself to a named NPC or PC.
* '''Advantage:'''Use Rapport to establish a positive mood on a target or in a scene or to get someone to confide in you out of a genuine sense of trust. You could pep talk someone into having Elevated Confidence, or stir a crowd into a Joyful Fervor, or simply make someone Talkative or Helpful.
* '''Discover:'''This is the skill you use to get people to talk. Provoke can be used as well, but it is a blunt hammer in relation to Rapport’s more nuanced approach.
* '''Sample Questions:'''
** What topic does this person seem to be avoiding?
** What topic are they most interested in?
** What is this person most worried about/happy about?

===Example stunts===

'''Best Foot Forward.''' Twice per session, you may upgrade a boost you receive with Rapport into a full situation aspect with a free invocation.

'''Demagogue.''' +2 to Rapport when you’re delivering an inspiring speech in front of a crowd. (If there are named NPCs or PCs in the scene, you may target them all simultaneously with one roll rather than dividing up your shifts.)

'''Revealing Questions.''' When using Rapport to question someone in an investigation, you get two extra questions when succeeding or excelling.
