Skills

Skills represent knowledge and abilities you have acquired during (or prior to) your life as an adventurer. They are important, as they determine how effectively you can perform certain actions in the game. There are thirty core skills in the base game, and they are all described in detail in the next chapter. Your skills are measured by skill level on a scale from 1 to 18. The higher, the better.

Base Chance

Every skill is connected to an attribute, which determines your base chance in that skill. This is indicated on the character sheet and in chapter 3. The base chance is a "free" skill level that you get automatically.

Starting Skill Levels

In addition to the base chances, you start out with a number of trained skills – eight, ten, or twelve depending on your age. At the start of the game, your level in trained skills is equal to twice the base chance.

Six of your trained skills must be selected from those listed by your profession. The rest (two, four, or six depending on your age) are chosen freely. You can increase your skill levels during the game.

Secondary Skills

Beyond the core skills there are secondary skills, such as the schools of magic. In this base game, you don't get a base chance in any secondary skills, but future expansions and supplements may modify this.
