Knowledge, Skills, & Checks
When it comes to any sort of knowledge, skill, or ability checks, go ahead and roll! If you're doing something that you feel may need a check, this can remove some of the extra time for me to ask for it. If you roll one check but another was needed, I'll simply modify your result based on the needed one's proficiency & bonus.
As for monsters & creatures: The more common one's you'll likely know a fair bit about. But others may base more on what you see or hear of it. You can roll knowledge checks which may provide more information that you have learned or know regarding strengths, weaknesses, and traits. The specific intelligence ability check (arcana, religion, history, etc.) may vary based on the creature.
