In most classic base rules only a those classes with the thief ability of climb walls can scale sheer surfaces such as cliffs with minute handholds, brick walls, etc.
For more normal climbs checks I use a simple Str check with the following modifiers:
Climbing aide (rope, harness, ladder, rope ladder). 4 bonus
Chain fence, good hand holds. No bonus or penalty to roll.
Few hand holds. 2 penalty
Slippery. 4 penalty
Brace in corner. 2 bonus
Brace between two surfaces. 4 bonus
Disguises
Anyone can pass off a general disguise if they are not impersonating someone else's identity and are not the subject of intense fame, a manhunt, etc.
Charisma check required for a suspicious audience.
Showing up as a simple farmer with sword scars on wrists and face might arouse suspicion, a Halfling disguised as a small child, etc.

*Seen in papers, tv, has some knowledge of subject. No bonus or penalty to roll.
