	Your offices and holdings (including improvements) can give you rolls or checks as well. Rolls are treated as above so if you succeed they can give glory and they only give a check when successful.

During the summer campaign season you get a chance to roll 2 knightly skills or virtues (ie anything marked as Chivalrous or its opposite).

You automatically check the Key Skill of each office you hold and must roll for the Key Trait. If you fail the trait roll you must roll its opposite. Anything in the Other column you may roll if you wish. If its a trait and you fail you must roll its opposite as normal.

	~~You should get at least 7 chances~~ for ~~checks this way each year in your skills and traits~~. If ~~I call for a specific skill or~~ its ~~appropriate to use it (such as courtesy~~ in ~~a new court or with high nobility aside from~~ the ~~Earl) then~~ you ~~can try it as well~~. ~~The idea is that this is the minimum and is~~ a ~~good way to go back~~ and ~~get checks in things~~ you ~~didn't get a chance to use in the main scenes~~.
