Combat, Diplomacy, Stealth / int_30a5ebfd	comment	Naruto: The InoShikaCho formations. The Yamanaka Clan (Ino) with their mind-reading techniques and ample knowledge of human psychology are the Diplomats. The Nara Clan (Shika) employ mid-ranged, shadow-possession jutsu and are remarkable strategists. Therefore, they fill the Stealth role. The Akimichi Clan (Cho) are the heavy-hitters of the team seeing they enlarge their body parts to fight. They are the Combatants. Alternatively, the Nara are the Diplomats stalling for time with their shadows while the Yamanaka Stealthily sneak upon the enemies to knock them out with their mind jutsu. The Akimichi remain as diversions and the front line Combatants, though. In a sense, despite all of them being proficient in combat, Konoha's Hokage fit either of these in terms of their preferred methods when in war. The Fourth is well-known for teleporting around to stab unsuspecting enemies along with his nearly unmatched speed — he is Stealth. The Third is an accomplished politician able to manipulate situations (and people) to his favor — he is Diplomacy. This role he shares with the Fifth, who managed to ally the great five Hidden Villages under the same banner during the Fourth Shinobi War. The First and the Second are both much more combat-oriented, something well backed by their abilities — they are Combat, though the Second's forte is his wits. The Sixth didn't see a full-out war nor any major conflict during his tenure, therefore complicating his classification besides the mandatory combat progress. Finally, the Seventh is undoubtedly a Combat type Hokage.

The ex-Templar Commander Cullen Rutherford serves as Commander of the Inquisition, Lady Josephine Montilyet serves as Ambassador of the Inquisition, and the Left Hand of the Divine, Leliana, serves as the Inquisition's Spymaster. You can complete missions on the War Table by choosing an adviser to handle each one. Each one takes a different amount of time to complete a particular mission and potentially can have different outcomes.

Combat, Diplomacy, Stealth / int_3c673da2	comment	Blades in the Dark explicitly supports all three types of play, in both its crew types and its playbooks. The Bravos crew, the Cutter, and the Hound represent the combat-heavy play; the Hawkers and, to a lesser extent, the Cult crews, the Slide, and the Spider cover the diplomacy side; while the Assassins, the Shadows, the Smugglers, and the Lurk playbook are largely about stealth. It also avoids Useless Useful Non-Combat Abilities because, mechanically, all action checks work the same way, so the usefulness of each rating depends mainly on the type of campaign a group is playing, rather than on the system itself.

Combat, Diplomacy, Stealth / int_9d34190a	comment	Present but downplayed in The Elder Scrolls series. Mechanically, the series offers these options, with "Diplomacy" skills (the Speechcraft and Mercantile) rolled into Stealth. In practice, resolving most quests requires someone dying with the option of sometimes sneaking past. As such, pure Diplomacy isn't really a viable option. Stealth is more useful, but still tends toward Combat (using sneak attacks to get Critical Hits and Backstabs for bonus damage). Diplomacy is also present in Mage builds via the Illusion school of magic, such as using spells to turn you into a temporary Charm Person. However, these spells are generally ineffective against targets that lack a mind (constructs, many forms of undead), so tend to be less useful than pure offensive spells.

Meanwhile, the fourth Stark sibling Bran starts out wanting to be a knight (combat, though he never takes part in a fight), goes on to serve as Lord of Winterfell (diplomacy), and is currently learning to operate an omniscient magical spy network (stealth).

Combat, Diplomacy, Stealth / int_faf84cd	comment	Most quests in Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines offer just stealth and combat paths, but diplomatic skills (including seduction, subterfuge, intimidation, and supernatural powers of Domination) earn you a lot of other nifty bonuses, as do hacking and security skills. Right up until the last levels where all your fancy skills become useless in endless dungeon crawls filled to the brim with enemies.
