Compiled Proficiency List
NON-WEAPON PROFICIENCIES
This is a list of the Non-Weapon Proficiencies published by TSR (R) for
AD&D (TM) 2nd Ed. They are compiled from the _Player's Handbook_, the
Player's Handbook Reference series, and a few other sources. For complete
desciptions of the proficiencies and how they work, please refer to the
various books themselves.
Where conflicting information has been published, the most recent version
of the Proficiency is cited.
In the case of Proficiencies unique to the 1st Edition _Oriental
Adventures_
book, attempts have been made to translate these to 2nd Ed terms. This,
however, is purely this author's interpretation of the Proficiency.
In the case of Proficiencies unique to the _Player's Option: Skills and
Powers_ handbook, Attributes have been adjusted for those not using the
secondary, derived attributes presented in that book.
This document is intended as an index for quick reference only.

Ah, it's not really that difficult. Most skills cost 3 cp, and have
a base of around 7, IIRC. If the original score was, say, Dex +2 with
a cost of 1 NWP, make the S&P version use Dex as the relevant score,
give it a cost of 3 (average), and a base of 9 (7+2).
Or are you afraid of a little work? ;-)
