Yeah, I know it needs a better name!
This came up while pondering aspects of different social gatherings.  I 
think I'd probably have about a 18 in this skill.  Depending on the 
setting, this skill could have the same importance as Carousing!  Pepper 
eating could even be an important part of religious rituals.  Part of a 
vision quest, perhaps?

Hot Pepper Tolerance (Physical/Easy)	Defaults to HT-2

	Buy this skill based on your HT, not DX.  This is the skill of
consuming hot peppers, chiles, hot sauces, etc.  As with Carousing, a
successful Hot Pepper Tolerance roll, made under proper circumstances,
will give a general +2 reaction roll.  A failed roll means you made some
grevious error, or the hot pepper was just too hot for you.  A critical
failure can actually result in blistering your tongue!  This causes pain,
and discomfort for a day or two, but has no other tangible effects.
	
Modifiers: Strong or Weak will, High pain threshold +4.  Anosmia
characters need not roll vs. this skill to be able to eat hot peppers. 
Also, modifiers by the specific peppers should be used: 

Habanero		-4
Thai or Cayenne		-3
Serrano or De Arbol	-2
Chipotle		-1
Jalapeno		0
Poblano			+1
Anaheim			+2
Cherry Pepper		+1
