Finding a Track or Trail

Skill, Common Abilities

Save vs PER to spot tracks. Actually following them needs a skill.

From the book

A character with no tracking skill may still notice that tracks or a trail are present. Where the Game Judge decides there is some chance of spotting them, the player may save vs PER to find the signs, with the Judge adding bonuses or penalties for difficulty.

This untrained knack only reveals that tracks exist. Actually following them should almost never be possible this way; that takes a genuine tracking skill.
