    Your task - to obtain a packet of crisps from a newsagent. You have no money. You have to use four out of five skills in a single contest:

    Noble Rogue
    Smoking
    Revolutionary Fervour
    Repartee
    Lucky

    As long as you're smoking, you can do anything. It's the anti-cryptonite.
    Actually, I think "smoking" is shorthand for "smokin' hot", which explains its trait-bombing usefulness.

    Noble Rogue - you can steal it.
    Smoking - as a distraction. Also, when you are smokin' hot, nobody minds you taking a few crisps now and then.
    Repartee - blag the crisps.
    Lucky - you pick up a pound coin, or a packet falls off the shelf as you walk past.

    The only one I couldn't justify is Revolutionary Fervour. :) Well, you could start a revolution and free all property.
    {unless perhaps the newsagent was a revolutionary, but that's probably a style-point spend to add a fact to the world}

    I attract the shopkeeper's attention by smoking.
    'Oi! You can't do that in 'ere!'
    'Sorry, Guv. Bloody Government, eh? Can't do anything now.. I see you've got a single packet of smoky bacon crisps left, may I have?'
    Certainly sir.
