Picklock
Usage: pick <direction>

Prerequisite: Hide
The Picklock skill grants characters the ability to attempt to potentially unlock doors in a specified direction or locks on containers. However, it's crucial to exercise caution, as this practice is generally frowned upon in civilized areas.
When using this skill, characters should be mindful of their surroundings.
Picking locks in broad daylight without being hidden and without proper disguise may attract attention from law enforcement.
Expect to be seen and briefly labelled as a criminal if caught in the act. Repeated instances of being caught lockpicking within a short timeframe could escalate to permanent outlaw, so it's wise to use this skill discreetly and sparingly.
Picklock makes use of the dexterity attribute.
