* Depending on the severity of the crime, your party members might be interrogated as well and might need to roll a Charisma Check, so it's better used for petty stuff like pickpocketing or for more severe stuff if your party members are nowhere near.

* Applying Feign Death on an allied NPC is not considered a hostile action and will not offend the target or any nearby NPCs. Moreover, [[Stealing]] from an NPC with [[Feigning_Death_(Condition)|Feigning Death]] does not trigger hostility (as of Hotfix #25), provided no other NPCs witness the crime, and the target NPC will not notice anything has been stolen upon waking. Failing a pickpocket attempt, however, will terminate the current pickpocketing session, which may not be resumed until the next turn during [[Turn-based_mode|turn-based mode]], but will not wake the NPC. This is particularly effective when used on [[Traders]], who can be made friendly by donating large sums of Gold (usually about 1500-2000 is sufficient).
