SDMB RPG Setup Thread

I’ll think of a few adjustments to me gear shortly.

Another question from the newb. Should I take into account info that other players get for instance;

@appleciders

Giacomo gets no particular feeling about Zachary. That means that either Zachary is very good at hiding his deception, or that he’s trustworthy, or maybe that Zachary sometimes flim-flams the rubes, but really does have quality merchandise for the discerning buyer.

Giacomo sees no particularly easy-to-steal items in the crowd. However, he does spot the son of the Doge, Marco Valente, among the onlookers. Marco seems to be slumming today; his clothes are only those of a merchant, and a little tattered at that, though he does move a little stiffly.

should I be aware of the Doge’s son without a perception check of my own?

Also, does the dm perform a perception check without my knowledge if I’m the target of a pickpocket or do I need to request a formal check?
